Report on the Standalone Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements of Spentex Industries Limited ("the Company"), which comprises the Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2016, the Statement of Profit and Loss, the Cash Flow Statement for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Management''s Responsibility for the Standalone Financial Statements

The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in Section 134(5) of the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act") with respect to the preparation of these standalone 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 principles generally accepted in India, including the Accounting Standards specified under Section 133 of the Act, read with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules,

2014. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor''s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these standalone financial statements based on our audit. We have taken into account the provisions of the Act, the accounting and auditing standards and matters which are required to be included in the audit report under the provisions of the Act and the Rules made there under.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing specified under Section 143(10) of the Act. 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 the 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 financial control relevant to the Company''s preparation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of the accounting policies used and the reasonableness of the accounting estimates made by the Company''s Directors, 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 qualified audit opinion on the standalone financial statements.

Qualified Opinion

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, except for the possible effects of the matter described in the basis for qualified opinion paragraph, the aforesaid standalone financial statements give the information 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 of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2016 and its loss and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.

Emphasis of Matter

Without qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to:

Note No. 41 of the standalone financial statements which indicates that the Company has accumulated losses and its net worth has been fully eroded, the Company has incurred a net cash loss during the current and previous year(s) and, the Company''s current liabilities exceeded its current assets as at the balance sheet date.

These conditions, along with other matters set forth in Note No. 41, indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the Company''s ability to continue as a going concern. However, the financial statements of the Company has been prepared on a going concern basis for the reasons stated in the said Note.

b. Note No. 42 of the standalone financial statements regarding balance recoverable of Rs.18,410,722/- shown as advance to trade payable under the head " Long Term Loans & Advances " of the standalone financial statements which has been considered good by the management in view of the reasons stated therein. We have relied upon the assertions given by the management as to the recoverability of the said amounts.

c. Note No. 4 of the standalone financial statement, wherein, the Company has not allotted shares against the share application amount of Rs.110,950,000/- which was brought in by the promoters in more than one installments under restructuring scheme approved by the Bankers. However, the company has not complied with the provisions of Section 42 of the Companies Act, 2013 for the reasons stated in the said Note.

d. Note No. 44 of the standalone financial statements requiring deposit/invest a sum of at least 15% of the amount of its debentures maturing during the financial year 2016-17 in one or more of the prescribed methods vide circular no. 04/2013 dated February 11, 2013 issued by Ministry of Corporate Affairs. However, the company has not complied with the requirement of the said circular.

e. Note No. 45 of the standalone financial statements regarding balances of parties under the head trade receivables, trade payables and loans & advances which are subject to confirmation, reconciliation and consequential adjustments, if any.

Referred to in paragraph 2 (g) of the Independent Auditors'' Report of even date under the heading "Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements" to the members of Spentex Industries Limited on the standalone financial statements as of and for the year ended March 31, 2016.

Report on the Internal Financial Controls under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act")

We have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting of Spentex Industries Limited ("the Company") as of March 31, 2016 in conjunction with our audit of the standalone financial statements of the Company for the year ended on that date.

Management''s Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls

The Company''s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. These responsibilities include the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to company''s policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Companies Act, 2013.

Auditors'' Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company''s internal financial controls over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting (the "Guidance Note") and the Standards on Auditing, issued by The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India and deemed to be prescribed under section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls, both applicable to an audit of Internal Financial Controls and, both issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting was established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.

Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system over financial reporting and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. 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.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our qualified audit opinion on the Company''s internal financial controls system over financial reporting.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting

A company''s internal financial control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

A company''s internal financial control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company''s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting

Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control over financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Qualified Opinion

According to the information and explanations given to us and based on our audit, the following material weaknesses have been identified in the operating effectiveness of the Company''s internal financial controls over financial reporting as at March 31, 2016.

The company did not have an appropriate internal control system for obtaining confirmation from certain parties included under the head trade receivables, trade payables, loans & advances and other current liabilities and its reconciliation/consequential adjustments, if any. Further, the company''s internal financial controls over recovery of certain long outstanding trade receivable, claim receivables and advance balances are not adequate.

The company''s internal financial controls were not operating effectively in respect of the above which may potentially impact the results of the company.

A ''material weakness'' is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal financial control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company''s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

In our opinion, except for the possible effects of the material weaknesses described above on the achievement of the objectives of the control criteria, the Company has maintained, in all material respects, adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as of March 31, 2016, based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.

We have considered the material weaknesses identified and reported above in determining the nature, timing, and extent of audit tests applied in our audit of the March 31, 2016 standalone financial statements of the Company, and these material weaknesses have affected our opinion on the standalone financial statements of the Company and we have accordingly issued a qualified opinion on the standalone financial statements.

We have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements of Spentex Industries Limited ("the Company"), which comprises the Balance Sheet as at March 31,2015, the Statement of Profit and Loss, the Cash Flow Statement for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Management's Responsibility for the Standalone Financial Statements

The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in Section 134(5) of the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act") with respect to the preparation of these standalone 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 principles generally accepted in India, including the Accounting Standards specified under Section 133 of the Act, read with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor's Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these standalone financial statements based on our audit. We have taken into account the provisions of the Act, the accounting and auditing standards and matters which are required to be included in the audit report under the provisions of the Act and the Rules made thereunder.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing specified under Section 143(10) of the Act. 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 the 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 financial control relevant to the Company's preparation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on whether the Company has in place an adequate internal financial controls system over financial reporting and the operating effectiveness of such controls. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of the accounting policies used and the reasonableness of the accounting estimates made by the Company's Directors, 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 qualified audit opinion on the standalone financial statements.

Basis for qualified opinion We draw attention to:

a. Note No. 41 of the standalone financial statements, wherein, we are unable to determine the extent of provision that may be required for diminution in the value of long term investment amounting to Rs.204,469,921/- in Amit Spinning Industries Limited, subsidiary of the company. Uncertainties exist in relation to the recoverability of loans amounting to Rs.320,128,019/-, interest accrued thereon Rs.95,950,582/- and advances amounting to Rs.226,165,468/- due from above subsidiary. Further, we are unable to determine the amount of liability that may arise on account of corporate guarantee mentioned in Note No. 30 of the standalone financial statements on behalf of above subsidiary.

b. Note No. 42 of the standalone financial statements, wherein, we are unable to determine the extent of provision that may be required for diminution in the value of long term investment amounting to Rs.561,011,339/- and Rs.9,323,779/- in Spentex Netherland B.V and Spentex Tashkent Toytepa LLC respectively, subsidiary/step down subsidiary of the company. Uncertainties exist in relation to the recoverability of Rs.95,070,902/- and Rs.70,012,404/- due from above subsidiary/step down subsidiary respectively. Further, we are unable to determine the amount of liability that may arise on account of corporate guarantee mentioned in Note No. 30 of the standalone financial statements on behalf of above subsidiary.

c. We are unable to comment on the recoverability of advance balance of Rs.19,040,000/-, included under the head "Advance against expenses" in Note No. 14 of the standalone financial statements, for which no provision has been made in the books of account.

d. Note No. 44 of the standalone financial statements, wherein, the company has not charged to statement of profit & loss Rs.10,135,376/- and Rs.2,695,093/- shown as claim receivables and export incentive respectively.

We further report that, without considering the impact of paragraph (a) and (b) above the effect of which could not be determined, had the observation made by us in paragraph (c) and (d) above been considered, the loss before tax for the year would have been Rs.653,781,143/- (as against the reported figure of Rs.621,910,674/-), Reserves and Surplus would have been negative Rs.2,210,635,927/- (as against negative reported figure Rs.2,178,765,458/-), Export Incentive included under head "Other Non Current Assets" would have been Rs.19,030,969/- (as against the reported figure of Rs.21,726,062/-), claim receivables included under the head "Other Non Current Assets" would have been Rs.2,774,242/- (as against the reported figure of Rs.12,909,618/-) and advance against expenses included under the head "Long Term Loans and Advances" would have been Rs.99,655,219/- (as against the reported figure of Rs.118,695,219/-) .

Qualified Opinion

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, except for the possible effects of the matter described in the basis for qualified opinion paragraph, the aforesaid standalone financial statements give the information 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 of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31,2015 and its loss and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.

Emphasis of Matter

Without qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to:

a. Note No. 4 of the standalone financial statement, wherein, the Company has not allotted shares against the share application amount of Rs.110,950,000/- which was brought in by the promoters in more than one installments under restructuring scheme approved by the Bankers. However, the company has not complied with the provisions of Section 42 of the Companies Act, 2013 for the reasons stated in the said Note.

b. Note No. 43 of the standalone financial statements which indicates that the Company has accumulated losses and its net worth has been fully eroded, the Company has incurred a net cash loss during the current and previous year(s) and, the Company's current liabilities exceeded its current assets as at the balance sheet date. These conditions, along with other matters set forth in Note No. 43, indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. However, the financial statements of the Company have been prepared on a going concern basis for the reasons stated in the said Note.

c. Note No. 44 of the standalone financial statements regarding amounts recoverable relating to certain trade receivable, advance balances and export incentive recoverable Rs.6,371,477/-, Rs.27,314,712/- and Rs.17,869,256/- respectively which has been considered good by the management in view of the reasons stated therein. We have relied upon the assertion given by the management as to the recoverability of the said amounts.

d. Note No. 45 of the standalone financial statements requiring deposit/invest a sum of at least 15% of the amount of its debentures maturing during the financial year 2013-14, 2014-15 and 2015-16 in one or more of the prescribed methods vide circular no. 04/2013 dated February 11,2013 issued by Ministry of Corporate Affairs. However, the company has not complied with the requirement of the said circular.

e. Note No. 46 of the standalone financial statements regarding balances of parties under the head trade receivables, trade payables and loans & advances which are subject to confirmation, reconciliation and consequential adjustments, if any.

Our opinion is not modified in respect of these matters.

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Spentex Industries Limited ("the Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31,2014, and the Statement of Profit and Loss and Cash Flow Statement for the year then ended, 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 referred to in sub-section (3C) of Section 211 of the Companies Act, 1956 ("the Act") read with the General Circular 15/2013 dated 13 September 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 presentation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view and 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 Company''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 the 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 qualified audit opinion. Basis for Qualified Opinion We draw attention to:
