Auditor Report of Tarai Foods Ltd.

Mar 31, 2014

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of TARAI FOODS LIMITED ("the Company) which comprise the balance sheet as at 31 March 2014, the statement of profit and loss and the cash flow statement for the year then ended and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information which we have signed under reference to this report.

Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements

The company's 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 and other applicable authoritative pronouncements 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 audit opinion.

Basis for Qualified Opinion:

1. Clause 12 on Note 22 regarding damage to the cold store building.

2. Clause 9 on Note 22 regarding interest on Term Loan and working capital default not provided for.

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 matter described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion paragraph, the 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:

(i) in the case of the balance sheet, of the state of affairs of the Company as at 31 March 2014;

(ii) in the case of the statement of profit and loss, of the losses for the year ended on that date; and

(iii) in the case of the cash flow statement, of the cash flows for the year ended on that date.

Emphasis of Matter

We draw attention to -

1. Clause 10 on Note 22 of the Financial Statement with regard to continued losses and negative net worth. Considering continued losses, and negative net worth of the company, the concept of going concern may be in doubt, its ability to continue as going concern depends upon the settlement of outstanding dues of secured/ unsecured creditors and restructuring of operations by considering appropriate business strategies and financial viabilities. In spite of these uncertainties, accounts have been prepared on going concern basis and we are unable to ascertain its impact on the financial statements of the company.

Our opinion is not qualified in respect of the above matter.
