We have audited the attached Balance Sheet of Miven Machine Tools Limited ("the Company"), Hubli as at March 31, 2014, the Statement of Profit and Loss and Cash Flow Statement for the period ended on that date and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Management''s Responsibility for the financial statements:

Management is responsible for the preparation of these financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting standards notified under the Companies Act, 1956 ("the Act") read with the General Circular 15/2013 dated September 13, 2013 of the Ministry of Corporate Affairs in respect of section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013. This responsibility includes the design, implementation and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditor''s responsibility:

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor''s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity''s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity''s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Basis of Qualified Opinion :

We have relied on the representation of the Company that the amount due from a customer as referred to in note 21 (iii) of Rs. 1,457,586/- is good of recovery and no provision is required in respect of the claims made by the customer of Rs.7,348,629/-. Pending completion of legal proceedings and in view of uncertainties involved, we are unable to form any opinion on the matter. Effect of any shortfall in provision for doubtful debts due to the above on the financial statements is not ascertainable.

Qualified Opinion ;

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, except for the effects of the matters described in the Basis of Qualified Opinion paragraph, the said financial statements give the information as required by the Act in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India;

b. In the case of the Statement of Profit and Loss, of the loss for the year ended on that date, and

c. In the case of the cash flow statement, of the cash flows for the year ended on that date. Emphasis of Matter:

Attention of the members is invited to note 32 of the financial statement regarding reasons for preparing the financial statements of the Company on going concern basis, not with standing the fact that networth of the Company is completely eroded. The appropriateness of the said basis is interalia dependent on the Company''s ability to execute sale orders and the support of the Company''s bankers and the Holding Company. We have also relied on the representation of the Company in this respect.
