Report on the Standalone Financial Statements

1. We have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements of Accel Frontline Limited (''the Company''), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at 31 March 2018, the Statement of Profit and Loss (including Other Comprehensive Income), the Cash Flow Statement and the Statement of Changes in Equity for the year then ended, and a summary of the significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, in which are incorporated the returns for the year ended on that date audited by the branch auditors of the Company''s branch at Singapore.

Management''s Responsibility for the Standalone Financial Statements

2. 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 state of affairs (financial position), profit or loss (financial performance including other comprehensive income), cash flows and changes in equity of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Indian Accounting Standards(''Ind AS'') specified under Section 133 of the Act. 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 standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor''s Responsibility

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

4. 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.

5. 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 these standalone financial statements are free from material misstatement.

6. 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 controls 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.

7. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our qualified audit opinion on these standalone financial statements.

Basis for Qualified Opinion

8. As disclosed in Note 33 to the standalone financial statements, the Company has made investments in its subsidiary company, Accel IT Resources Limited, amounting to INR 790 lakhs and has given loans to such subsidiary company amounting to INR 622 lakhs, which are outstanding as at 31 March 2018. The subsidiary company has incurred losses and its net worth as at 31 March 2018 is fully eroded. The management has drawn up business plans for the subsidiary company and is of the view that its investment and loans advanced to the subsidiary company will be recovered over the years. However, in the absence of binding arrangements and other sufficient appropriate supporting audit evidence in respect of the business projections prepared by the management, we are unable to comment on the carrying value of the aforementioned investments and financial assets - loans as at 31 March 2018, and the impact of adjustments, if any, that may be required to such carrying values in the accompanying standalone financial statements.

Qualified Opinion

9. 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 matters 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 including Ind AS specified under Section 133 of the Act, of the state of affairs (financial position) of the Company as at 31 March 2018, and its profit (financial performance including other comprehensive income), its cash flows andthe changes in equity for the year ended on that date.

Emphasis of Matter

10. We draw attention to Note 32 to the standalone financial statements relating to the Company''s inventory valuation as at 31 March 2018 and related disclosures. The Company, in the current year, has followed and complied with the requirements of Ind AS 2 - Valuation of Inventory and has accounted for the impact relating to non-compliance with accounting policy in the earlier years. As a result of impracticability of determining the impact on the comparatives financial information including the impact on beginning of such period, due to reasons disclosed in the aforesaid note, the change in the valuation of Inventory has been made only prospectively as at 31

March 2018, in accordance with Ind AS 8 - Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors. Accordingly, to this extent, the current period figures and corresponding figures are not comparable. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Other Matters

11. The Company had prepared separate sets of statutory financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2017 and 31 March 2016 in accordance with Accounting Standards prescribed under Section 133 of the Act, read with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014 (as amended) on which we issued auditor''s reports to the shareholders of the Company dated 01 August 2016 and 26 May 2017 respectively.

Auditor''s Responsibility

3. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company''s IFCoFR based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (''ICAI'') and deemed to be prescribed under Section 143(10) of the Act, to the extent applicable to an audit of IFCoFR, and the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting (''the Guidance Note'') issued by the ICAI. 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 IFCoFR were established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.

4. Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the IFCoFR and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of IFCoFR includes obtaining an understanding of IFCoFR, 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.

5. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Company''s IFCoFR.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting

6. A company''s IFCoFR 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 IFCoFR include 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.

Annexure B to the Independent Auditor''s Report of even date to the members of Accel Frontline Limited on the standalone financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2018

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

1. In conjunction with our audit of the standalone financial statements of Accel Frontline Limited (''the Company'') as at and for the year ended 31 March 2018, we have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting (''IFCoFR'') of the Company as at that date.

Management''s Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls

2. The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal controls 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 the Company''s business, including adherence to the 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 Act.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting

7. Because of the inherent limitations of IFCoFR, 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 IFCoFR to future periods are subject to the risk that the IFCoFR may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Basis of Qualified Opinion

8. According to the information and explanations given to us and based on our audit, the following material weaknesses have been identified as at 31 March 2018:

The Company did not have an appropriate internal control system towards estimating the value in use of its investment in subsidiary to assess the requirement of recognizing an impairment loss as laid down under Indian Accounting Standard (''Ind AS'') 36 ''Impairment of Assets'', which resulted or could have potentially resulted in a material misstatement in the value of Company''s investments, provision for impairment and its consequential impact on corresponding earnings and reserves and surplus including applicable disclosures in the Company''s standalone financial statements.

''A ''material weakness'' is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in IFCoFR, 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.

Qualified Opinion

9. In our opinion, except for the possible effects of the material weakness described above on the achievement of the objectives of control criteria, the Company has in all material respects, adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as at 31 March 2018, 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.

10. 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 financial statements of the Company as at and for the year ended 31 March 2018, and these material weaknesses have affected our opinion on the financial statements of the Company and we have issued a qualified opinion on the financial statements.

Auditor''s Responsibility

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

5. 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 standalone financial statements are free from material misstatement.

6. 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 controls 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.

7. 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

8. As detailed in note 30 to the financial statements, the Company has made a provision for bad and doubtful debts and written off as bad debts Rs. 132 lakhs and Rs.5,117 lakhs, respectively for the year ended 31 March 2016. According to the information and explanations given to us, in respect of the trade receivables amounting to Rs.9,166 lakhs as at 31 March 2016, the management is taking steps including obtaining balance confirmations to assess the existence of the said trade receivables and/or any additional adjustments required to the trade receivables. Pending completion of the aforesaid process and in absence of sufficient appropriate evidence, we are unable to comment upon the existence of the aforesaid trade receivables or any adjustments required to the remaining trade receivables and the consequent impact, if any, on the accompanying financial statements. Our limited review report for the quarter and period ended 31 December 2015 was also qualified in this regard.

9. As disclosed in note 33 to the financial statements, the Company''s inventory at maintenance divisions is carried at Rs.3,823 lakhs as at 31 March 2016 (31 March 2015: Rs.3,044 lakhs). According to the information and explanations given to us, the management is unable to comply with the requirement of valuing the inventory in accordance with the requirements of Accounting standard (AS) 2 - Valuation of Inventories. Owing to the nature of the Company''s records relating to valuation of inventory pertaining to its maintenance divisions, and in the absence of sufficient appropriate evidence, we are unable to comment upon the impact of the aforesaid matter on carrying value of aforesaid inventory as at 31 March 2016, changes in inventories of stock-in-trade and spares, prior period expenses, and the consequent impact, on the accompanying financial statements. Our audit opinion on the financial statements for the previous year ended 31 March 2015 and the review reports for the quarters and periods ended 30 June 2015, 30 September 2015 and 31 December 2015 were also qualified in this regard.

10. As disclosed in note 32 to the financial statements, the Company has provided for an amount of Rs.750 lakhs during the year in respect of discrepancies noted on the physical verification of inventory of maintenance division as at 31 March 2016. The management is presently in the process of evaluating the reasons for such material discrepancies noted on the aforesaid physical verification. Pending completion of such process and in the absence of sufficient appropriate audit evidence, we are unable to comment upon the appropriateness of the provision so recognized and the corresponding impact, if any, on the existence of inventory, purchases of stock-in-trade for the year ended 31 March 2016, trade payables as at 31 March 2016 and consequential impact on the accompanying financial statements.

11.

Pending completion of such process and in the absence of other sufficient appropriate audit evidence, we are unable to comment upon the existence and carrying value of the aforesaid assets, depreciation expense for the current year and accumulated depreciation in respect thereof and the consequential impact on the accompanying financial statements.

12. As disclosed in note 20(a) to the financial statements, revenues aggregating to Rs.397 lakhs pertaining to the year ended 31 March 2016 were recognized in the previous year ended 31 March 2015. Had the Company followed the accounting principles as laid down under Accounting Standard 9 - ''Revenue Recognition'', the net sales/income from operations (net of excise duty), changes in inventories of finished goods and stock-in-trade and prior period items for the year ended 31 March 2016 would have been higher by Rs.397 lakhs, Rs.368 lakhs, Rs.29 lakhs respectively. Similarly, the net sales/income from operations (net of excise duty), the changes in inventories of finished goods and stock-in-trade for the year ended 31 March 2015 would have been lower by Rs.397 lakhs, Rs.368 lakhs respectively and net loss for the period after tax would have been higher by Rs.29 lakhs.

Qualified Opinion

13. In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, except for the effects/ possible effects of the matters described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion paragraphs, 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 31 March 2016, and its loss and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.

Emphasis of Matters

14. We draw attention to note 34 to the financial statements which indicates that the Company has incurred loss after tax of Rs.13,759 lakhs during the year ended 31 March 2016 and, as of that date, the Company''s negative reserves amounted to Rs.5,332 lakhs resulting in complete erosion of the net worth of the Company. Further, as of that date, the Company''s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by Rs.6,458 lakhs. These conditions, along with matters as set forth in note 29 indicate the existence of material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the Company''s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Report On The Standalone Financial Statements

1. We have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements of Accel Frontline Limited ("the Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at 31st March, 2015, the Statement of Profit and Loss, the Cash Flow Statement for the year then ended, and a summary of the significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, in which are incorporated the returns for the year ended on that date audited by the branch auditors of the Company's branch at Singapore.

Management's Responsibility For The Standalone Financial Statements

2. The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the maters 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 (as amended). This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act; safeguarding the assets of the Company; 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

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

4. We have taken into account the provisions of the Act, the accounting and auditing standards and maters which are required to be included in the audit report under the provisions of the Act and the Rules made thereunder.

5. 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 standalone financial statements are free from material misstatement.

6. 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 controls 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.

7. 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

8. As disclosed in note 20 (a) of the financial statements, during the year the Company has recognised revenue from operations amounting to Rs.397 lakhs however, in our opinion, such recognition does not meet the conditions enunciated under AS 9 – 'Revenue Recognition'. Had the Company followed the principles of AS 9, the revenue from operations and the changes in inventories of stores and spares and stock in trade for the year ended 31st March, 2015 would have been lower by Rs.397 lakhs and Rs.368 lakhs respectively. The loss from ordinary activates after tax would have been higher by Rs.29 lakhs and tax expense would be lower by Rs.9 lakhs for the year ended 31st March, 2015. Further, the trade receivables as at 31st March, 2015 would be lower by Rs.397 lakhs and the inventories would be higher by Rs.368 lakhs as at that date.

9. Further, as disclosed in note 16(a) of the financial statements, the Company's inventory comprise of certain items carried at Rs.3,044 lakhs as at 31st March, 2015, wherein due to reasons mentioned in the aforesaid note the management is unable to compute the value of inventory in accordance with the Company's accounting policy and requirements of Accounting standard (AS) 2 – Valuation of Inventories. Owing to the nature of the Company's records and in the absence of sufficient appropriate evidence we are unable to comment on the impact, of the aforesaid mater on the changes in inventories of stock-in-trade and store and spares for the year ended 31st March, 2015 and the carrying value of inventories as at 31st March, 2015 and the consequential impact, if any, on the financial statements.

Qualified Opinion

10. In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, except for the effect / possible effects of the maters 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 31st March, 2015, and its loss and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.

Report On Other Legal And Regulatory Requirements

11. As required by the Companies (Auditor's Report) Order, 2015 ("the Order") issued by the Central Government of India in terms of Section 143(11) of the Act, we give in the Annexure a statement on the maters specified in paragraphs 3 and 4 of the Order.
