Mar 31, 2025
We have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements
of Ansal Housing Limited ("the Companyâ), which comprise the
Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2025, the standalone statement of
Profit and Loss (including Other Comprehensive Income), the
standalone statement of changes in equity and the standalone
statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the
standalone financial statements including a summary of material
accounting policies and other explanatory information (hereinafter
referred to as "standalone financial statementsâ).
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to
the explanations given to us, the accompanying 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, 2025, and profit (financial
performance including other comprehensive income), changes in
equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.
Basis of Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on
Auditing (SAs) specified under section 143(10) of the Companies
Act, 2013 (the Act). Our responsibilities under those Standards are
further described in the Auditor''s Responsibilities for the audit of
standalone financial statements section of our report. We are
independent of the Company in accordance with the Code of Ethics
issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India together
with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the
standalone financial statements under the provisions of the
Companies Act, 2013 and the Rules there under, and we have fulfilled
our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these
requirements and the ICAI''s Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit
evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide
a basis for our opinion on the standalone financial statements.
1. We draw attention to Note 34 to the standalone financial
statements regarding pending litigation matters with Court/
Appellate Authorities. Due to the significance of the balance to
the standalone financial statements as a whole and the
involvement of estimates and judgement in the assessment
which is being technical in nature, the management is of the
opinion that the company will succeed in the appeal and there
will not be any material impact on the statements on account of
probable liability vis-a-vis the provisions already created in the
books.
2. We draw attention to Note 52 of the standalone financial
statements which describe that the Company have a system of
obtaining periodic confirmation of balances from various parties
(other than disputed parties). The External Balance Confirmations
were sent to banks and parties and certain parties'' balances are
subject to confirmation/reconciliation. Adjustments, if any will
be accounted for on confirmation/reconciliation of the same,
which in the opinion of the management will not have a material
impact.
3. We draw attention to Note 53 of the standalone financial
statement which describe the matter of the Company with the
Samyak Projects Private Limited ("Samyakâ/âCollaboratorâ).
4. We draw attention to Note 61 of the standalone financial
statements regarding the net recoverable value of advances/
security deposits paid by the company for the acquisition of
land/project development.
Our opinion is not modified in respect of these matters.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional
judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the standalone
financial statements of the current period. These matters were
addressed in the context of our audit of the standalone financial
statements as a whole and in forming our opinion thereon, and we
do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for the other
information. The other information comprises the information
included in the Management Discussion & Analysis, Board''s Report
including Annexures to Board''s Report, Business Responsibility
Report, Corporate Governance and Shareholder''s Information, but
does not include the standalone financial statements and our
auditor''s report thereon.
Our opinion on the standalone financial statements does not cover
the other information and we do not express any form of assurance
conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the standalone financial statements,
our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so,
consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with
the standalone financial statements, or our knowledge obtained in
the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a
material misstatement of this other information, we are required to
report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibility of Management and Those Charged with
Governance for 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 Actâ) with
respect to the preparation of these standalone financial statements
that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial
performance (including other comprehensive income), changes in
equity 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. This
responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting
records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding
of the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds
and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate
implementation and maintenance of 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
statement that gives a true and fair view and are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the standalone financial statements, management is
responsible for assessing the Company''s ability to continue as a going
concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern
and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management
either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or
has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the
company''s financial reporting process.
Auditor''s Responsibilities for the Audit of Standalone Financial
Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the standalone financial statements as a whole are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor''s
report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level
of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in
accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when
it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are
considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could
reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users
taken on the basis of these standalone financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional
judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.
We also:
⢠Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the
standalone financial statements, whether due to fraud or error,
design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks,
and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to
provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a
material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for
one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery,
intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of
internal control.
⢠Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit
in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the
circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Companies Act,
2013, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on
whether the company has adequate internal financial controls
system in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.
⢠Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and
the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related
disclosures made by management.
⢠Conclude on the appropriateness of management''s use of the
going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit
evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related
to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the
Company''s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude
that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw
attention in our auditor''s report to the related disclosures in
the standalone financial statements or, if such disclosures are
inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based
on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor''s
report. However, future events or conditions may cause the
Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
⢠Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the
standalone financial statements, including the disclosures, and
whether the standalone financial statements represent the
underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves
fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the standalone
financial statements that, individually or in aggregate, makes it
probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable
user of the standalone financial statements may be influenced. We
consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning
the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work;
and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the
standalone financial statements.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding,
among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit
and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies
in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement
that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding
independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and
other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our
independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with
governance, we determine those matters that were of most
significance in the audit of the standalone financial statements of
the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We
describe these matters in our auditor''s report unless law or regulation
precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely
rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be
communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of
doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public
interest benefits of such communication.
1. Attention is invited to Note 1.19 (a) & (b) of standalone Financial
Statements, the status of various ongoing projects, recognition
of expense and income and the realizable value of the costs
incurred are as per the judgment of Management of the
Company and certified by their technical personnel and being
of technical nature, have been relied upon by us.
2. The statutory audit was conducted via making arrangements to
provide requisite documents/ information through an electronic
medium. The Company has made available the following
information/ records/ documents/ explanations to us through
e-mail and remote secure network of the Company: -
a. Scanned copies of necessary records/documents deeds,
certificates and the related records made available
electronically through e-mail or remote secure network
of the Company; and
b. By way of enquiries through video conferencing,
dialogues and discussions over the phone, e-mails and
similar communication channels.
It has also been represented by the management that the data
and information provided electronically for the purpose of our
audit are correct, complete, reliable and are directly generated
from the accounting system of the Company, extracted from
the records and files, without any further manual modifications
so as to maintain its integrity, authenticity, readability and
completeness. In addition, based on our review of the various
internal audit reports/inspection reports/other reports (as
applicable), nothing has come to our knowledge that makes us
believe that such an audit procedure would not be adequate.
Our opinion is not modified in respect of these matters.

To the Members of Ansal Housing Limited
Report on the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements
Qualified Opinion
We have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements of Ansal Housing Limited ("the Companyâ), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2024, the Statement of Profit and Loss (including Other Comprehensive Income), the statement of changes in equity and the statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements including a summary of material accounting policies and other explanatory information (hereinafter referred to as "standalone financial statementsâ).
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 section when reporting in accordance with a fair presentation framework, the accompanying 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, 2024, and profit (financial performance including other comprehensive income), changes in equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.
Basis for Qualified Opinion
1. We draw attention to Note 16.5 to the standalone financial statements which describe that IFCI Limited has revoked the restructuring and recalled repayment of outstanding dues amounting to Rs.15,104.04 Lakh (including interest) now assigned to Suraksha ARC vide assignment agreement dated September 6, 2023. The company has not recognized the default interest cost amounting to Rs. 831.86 Lakhs and Rs 546.54 Lakhs for the year ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023. The company was in discussion with the lender to resolve the matter in the best possible manner. The company''s records indicate that had management recognized the default interest, an amount of Rs. 831.86 Lakhs and Rs 546.54 Lakhs for the year ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023 respectively would have been required to provide for as finance cost. Accordingly, Finance Cost, Deferred tax assets and Loss after tax would have been increased by "Rs. 831.86 Lakh, Rs. 231.42 Lakh, Rs. 600.44 Lakhâ, "Rs. 546.54 Lakh, Nil, Rs. 546.54 Lakhâ for the year ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023 respectively and shareholder''s fund would have been reduced by Rs. 600.44 Lakhs and Rs 546.54 Lakhs for the year ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023 respectively.
Matter stated above has also been qualified in our report for year ended March 31, 2023, March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021.
2. We draw attention to Note 16.4 to the standalone financial statements and clause v of Annexure A to the independent auditor''s report in respect of repayment of public deposits and settlement of said public deposit with the respective depositor. However, the impact, if any, as per the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 on the financial statements, is presently not ascertainable.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013 (the Act). Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor''s Responsibilities for the audit of standalone financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the standalone financial statements under the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 and the Rules there under, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the ICAI''s Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our qualified opinion.
Emphasis of Matter
1. We draw attention to Note 33 to the standalone financial statements regarding pending litigation matters with Court/ Appellate Authorities. Due to the significance of the balance to the standalone financial statements as a whole and the involvement of estimates and judgement in the assessment, which is being technical in nature, the management is of the opinion that the company will succeed in the appeal and there will not be any material impact on the Standalone financial statements on account of probable liability vis-a-vis the provisions already created in the books.
2. We draw attention to Note 52 of the standalone financial statements which describe that the Company have a system of obtaining periodic confirmation of balances from various parties (other than disputed parties). The External Balance Confirmations were sent to banks and parties and certain parties'' balances are subject to confirmation/reconciliation. Adjustments, if any will be accounted for on confirmation/reconciliation of the same, which in the opinion of the management will not have a material impact.
3. We draw attention to Note 53 of the standalone financial statements which describe that the Company is in collaboration with Samyak Projects Private Limited ("Samyakâ) for developing a project at Ansal Hub 83âII, Gurugram. Samyak took an Inter Corporate Deposit of Rs 2,500 Lakh from the company for making the payment related to the project under a collaboration and failed to discharge its obligations for the repayment. The company has approached the NCLT for initiation of the Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) which has been dismissed by the Hon''ble NCLT vide order dated February 28, 2023. Against the said order the company has filed an appeal in Hon''ble National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT) which was disposed off stating that the company has the liberty to exhaust other remedies before any other appropriate forum. Consequently, the company, knocked the door of the Hon''ble Supreme Court wherein, vide order dated March 12, 2024, the Hon''ble Supreme Court also upheld the order of the NCLAT. Presently the company is in the process of filing civil suit for recovery and the management is of the view that the full amount of Rs. 5,795.20 Lakhs (including accrued interest till 31.03.2020)
is recoverable from the party and hence no provision for the same has been made in the books of accounts.
4. We draw attention to Note 61 of the standalone financial statements regarding the net recoverable value of advances/ security deposits paid by the company for the acquisition of land/project development is based on the management''s estimates and internal documentation, which include, among other things, the likelihood when the land acquisition would be completed, the expected date of plan approvals for commencement of the project, expected date of completion of the project and the estimation of sale prices and construction costs. Due to the significance of the balance to the standalone financial statements as a whole and the involvement of estimates and judgement in the assessment, which is being technical in
nature, the management is of the opinion that the entire amount is recoverable/adjustable against the land procurement/amount payable to collaborator under collaboration agreement and hence no provision is required at this stage.
Our opinion is not modified in respect of these matters.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the standalone financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the standalone financial statements as a whole and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
|
We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report. |
|
|
The Key Audit Matter |
How our audit addressed the key audit matter |
|
Assessing the carrying value of Inventory |
|
|
The Company''s inventory comprises of ongoing and completed real estate projects, Land, flats, Farmland, Building materials etc. As at March 31, 2024, the carrying values of inventories amount to Rs. 1,17,336.61 Lakh. The inventories are carried at the lower of the cost and net realizable value (''NRV''). The determination of the NRV involves estimates based on prevailing market conditions, current prices and expected date of commencement and completion of the project, the estimated future selling price, the cost to complete projects and selling costs. Considering the significance of the amount of carrying value of inventories in the standalone financial statements and the involvement of significant estimation and judgement in such assessment of NRV, the same has been considered as a key audit matter. Refer Note 1.11 & Note 1.19(b) to the Standalone Financial Statements. |
Our audit procedures/ testing included, among others: ⢠We read and evaluate the accounting policies and disclosures made in the standalone financial statements with respect to inventories. ⢠We understood and reviewed the management''s process and methodology of using key assumptions for the determination of NRV of the inventories. ⢠We have tested the NRV of the inventories to its carrying value in books on a sample basis. |
|
Evaluation of uncertain Litigation Matters |
|
|
The company has material uncertain litigation matters including matters under dispute which involves significant judgment to determine the possible outcome of these disputes. Refer Note no. 33 and 1.19 (d) of the standalone financial statements. Due to the complexity involved in these litigation matters, management''s judgement regarding recognition and measurement of provisions for these legal proceedings is inherently uncertain and might change over time as the outcomes of the legal cases are determined. Accordingly, it has been considered a key audit matter. |
Our audit procedures include the following substantive procedures: ⢠Obtained understanding of key uncertain litigation positions ⢠Analyzed all correspondence available on record for uncertain key litigation positions; and ⢠Discussed with appropriate management and evaluate the management key assumptions in estimates of provisions, where required. |
Information Other than the standalone financial statements and Auditor''s Report Thereon
The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Management Discussion & Analysis, Board''s Report including Annexures to Board''s Report, Business Responsibility Report, Corporate Governance and Shareholder''s Information, but does not include the standalone financial statements and our auditor''s report thereon.
Our opinion on the standalone financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the standalone financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the standalone financial statements, or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a
material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibility of Management for 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 Actâ) with respect to the preparation of these standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance (including other comprehensive income), changes in equity 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. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate implementation and maintenance of 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 statement that gives a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the standalone financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company''s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the company''s financial reporting process.
Auditor''s Responsibilities for the Audit of Standalone Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the standalone financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor''s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these standalone financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
⢠Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the standalone financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
⢠Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Companies Act, 2013, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the company has adequate internal financial controls system in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.
⢠Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
⢠Conclude on the appropriateness of management''s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company''s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor''s report to the related disclosures in the standalone financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor''s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
⢠Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the standalone financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the standalone financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the standalone financial statements that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the standalone financial statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the standalone financial statements.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the standalone financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor''s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

We have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements of Ansal Housing Limited ("the Companyâ), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31,2023, the Statement of Profit and Loss (including Other Comprehensive Income), the statement of changes in equity and the statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements including a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information (hereinafter referred to as "standalone financial statementsâ).
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 section when reporting in accordance with a fair presentation framework, the accompanying 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, 2023, and loss (financial performance including other comprehensive income), changes in equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.
Basis for Qualified Opinion
1. We draw attention to Note 16.5 to the standalone financial statements which describe that IFCI Limited has revoked the restructuring and recalled repayment of outstanding dues amounting to Rs.13,258.28 Lakh (including interest). The company has not recognized the default interest cost amounting to Rs.546.54 Lakh & Rs. 500.58 Lakh for the year ended March 31, 2023 & March 31, 2022. The company is in discussion with the lender to resolve the matter in the best possible manner. The Company''s records indicate that had management recognized the default interest, an amount of Rs.546.54 Lakh and Rs. 500.58 Lakh for the year ended March 31, 2023 & March 31,2022 respectively, would have been required to provide for as finance cost. Accordingly, Finance Cost, Deferred tax assets and Loss after tax would have been increased by "Rs. 546.54 Lakh, Rs. Nil, Rs. 546.54 Lakhâand"Rs.500.58 Lakh, Rs.139.26 Lakh, Rs.361.32 Lakhâ for the year ended March 31, 2023 & March 31, 2022 respectively and shareholder''s fund would have been reduced by Rs. 546.54 Lakh and Rs. 361.32 Lakh for the year ending March 31, 2023 & March 31, 2022 respectively.
Matter stated above has also been qualified in our report for year ended March 31,2022 and March 31,2021.
2. We draw attention to Note 3 to the standalone financial statements regarding the Company''s investment of Rs.491.67 Lakh in Housing and Construction Lanka Private Limited (a wholly-owned subsidiary company located in Sri Lanka) by way of equity shares. The Board of Investment ("BOIâ) has terminated the agreements for the development of an integrated township in Sri Lanka between the subsidiary and the BOI. The subsidiary company had filed an arbitration claim against the BOI of Sri Lanka. During the F.Y.2017-18, the management of the subsidiary company has written off all assets. Now the subsidiary company does not have enough assets to redeem the said investment. The Company''s records
indicate that had management recognized the impairment, an amount of Rs.491.67 Lakh would have been required to provide for as Impairment Loss on Investment. Accordingly, Impairment Loss on Investment, Deferred tax assets and Loss after tax would have been increased by Rs. 491.67 Lakh, Rs. Nil and Rs. 491.67 Lakh respectively and shareholder''s fund and Investment in the Subsidiary would have been reduced by Rs. 491.67 Lakh for the year ended March 31,2023.
3. We draw attention to Note 16.4 to the standalone financial statements and clause v of Annexure A to the independent auditor''s report in respect of repayment of public deposits and settlement of said public deposit with the respective depositor. However, the impact, if any, as per the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 on the financial statements, is presently not ascertainable.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013 (the Act). Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor''s Responsibilities for the audit of standalone financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the standalone financial statements under the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 and the Rules there under, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the ICAI''s Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our qualified opinion.
Emphasis of Matter
1. We draw attention to Note 33 to the standalone financial statements regarding pending litigation matters with Court/ Appellate Authorities. Due to the significance of the balance to the standalone financial statements as a whole and the involvement of estimates and judgement in the assessment, which is being technical in nature, the management is of the opinion that the company will succeed in the appeal and there will not be any material impact on the Standalone financial statements on account of probable liability vis-a-vis the provisions already created in the books.
2. We draw attention to Note 53 of the standalone financial statements which describe that the Company have a system of obtaining periodic confirmation of balances from various parties (other than disputed parties). The External Balance Confirmations were sent to banks and parties and certain parties'' balances are subject to confirmation/reconciliation. Adjustments, if any will be accounted for on confirmation/ reconciliation of the same, which in the opinion of the management will not have a material impact.
3. We draw attention to Note 54 of the standalone financial statements which describe that the Company is in collaboration with Samyak Projects Private Limited ("Samyakâ) for developing a project at Ansal Hub 83-II, Gurugram. Samyak took an Inter Corporate Deposit of Rs 2,500 Lakh from the company for making the payment related to the project under a collaboration and failed to discharge its obligations for the repayment. The company has approached the NCLT for initiation of the Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process and the management

We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report. |
|
|
The Key Audit Matter |
How our audit addressed the key audit matter |
|
Assessing the carrying value of Inventory |
|
|
The Company''s inventory comprises of ongoing and completed real estate projects, Land, flats, Farmland, Building materials etc. As at March 31,2023, the carrying values of inventories amount to Rs. 1,38,722.13 Lakh. The inventories are carried at the lower of the cost and net realizable value (''NRV''). The determination of the NRV involves estimates based on prevailing market conditions, current prices and expected date of commencement and completion of the project, the estimated future selling price, the cost to complete projects and selling costs. Considering the significance of the amount of carrying value of inventories in the standalone financial statements and the involvement of significant estimation and judgement in such assessment of NRV, the same has been considered as a key audit matter. Refer Note 1.11 & Note 1.19(b) to the Standalone Financial Statements. |
Our audit procedures/ testing included, among others: ⢠We read and evaluate the accounting policies and disclosures made in the standalone financial statements with respect to inventories. ⢠We understood and reviewed the management''s process and methodology of using key assumptions for the determination of NRV of the inventories. ⢠We have tested the NRV of the inventories to its carrying value in books on a sample basis. |
|
Evaluation of uncertain Litigation Matters |
|
|
The company has material uncertain litigation matters including matters under dispute which involves significant judgment to determine the possible outcome of these disputes. Refer Note no. 33 and 1.19 (d) of the standalone financial statements. Due to the complexity involved in these litigation matters, management''s judgement regarding recognition and measurement of provisions for these legal proceedings is inherently uncertain and might change over time as the outcomes of the legal cases are determined. Accordingly, it has been considered a key audit matter. |
Our audit procedures include the following substantive procedures: ⢠Obtained understanding of key uncertain litigation positions ⢠Analyzed all correspondence available on record for uncertain key litigation positions; and ⢠Discussed with appropriate management and evaluate the management key assumptions in estimates of provisions, where required. |
is of the view that the full amount of Rs. 5,795.20 Lakhs (including accrued interest till 31.03.2020) is recoverable from the party and hence no provision for the same has been made in the books of accounts.
4. We draw attention to Note 61 of the standalone financial statements regarding the net recoverable value of advances/ security deposits paid by the company for the acquisition of land/project development is based on the management''s estimates and internal documentation, which include, among other things, the likelihood when the land acquisition would be completed, the expected date of plan approvals for commencement of the project, expected date of completion of the project and the estimation of sale prices and construction costs. Due to the significance of the balance to the standalone financial statements as a whole and the involvement of
The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Management Discussion & Analysis, Board''s Report including Annexures to Board''s Report, Business Responsibility Report, Corporate Governance and Shareholder''s Information, but does not include the standalone financial statements and our auditor''s report thereon.
Our opinion on the standalone financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the standalone financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the standalone financial statements, or our knowledge
estimates and judgement in the assessment, which is being technical in nature, the management is of the opinion that the entire amount is recoverable/adjustable against the land procurement/amount payable to collaborator under collaboration agreement and hence no provision is required at this stage.
Our opinion is not modified in respect of these matters.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the standalone financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the standalone financial statements as a whole and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. Responsibility of Management for 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 Actâ) with respect to the preparation of these standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance (including other comprehensive income), changes in equity 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. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate
accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate implementation and maintenance of 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 statement that gives a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the standalone financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company''s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the company''s financial reporting process.
Auditor''s Responsibilities for the Audit of Standalone Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the standalone financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor''s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these standalone financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
⢠Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the standalone financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
â¢Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Companies Act, 2013, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the company has adequate internal financial controls system in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.
⢠Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
⢠Conclude on the appropriateness of management''s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company''s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor''s report to the related disclosures in the standalone financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence
obtained up to the date of our auditor''s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
⢠Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the standalone financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the standalone financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the standalone financial statements that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the standalone financial statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the standalone financial statements.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the standalone financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor''s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
Other Matter
1. Attention is invited to Note 1.19 (a) & (b) of standalone Financial Statements, the status of various ongoing projects, recognition of expense and income and the realizable value of the costs incurred are as per the judgment of Management of the Company and certified by their technical personnel and being of technical nature, have been relied upon by us.
2. The statutory audit was conducted via making arrangements to provide requisite documents/ information through an electronic medium. The Company has made available the following information/ records/ documents/ explanations to us through e-mail and remote secure network of the Company: -
a. Scanned copies of necessary records/documents deeds, certificates and the related records made available electronically through e-mail or remote secure network of the Company; and
b. By way of enquiries through video conferencing, dialogues and discussions over the phone, e-mails and similar communication channels.
It has also been represented by the management that the data and information provided electronically for the purpose of our audit are correct, complete, reliable and are directly generated from the accounting system of the Company, extracted from the records and files, without any further manual modifications so as to maintain its integrity, authenticity, readability and completeness.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the standalone Ind AS financial statements.
Opinion
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid standalone Ind AS 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 the Ind AS, of the state of affairs (financial position) of the Company as at 31st March, 2018, and its loss (financial performance including other comprehensive income), its cash flows and the changes in equity for the year ended on that date.
Emphasis of Matter
a. Attention is invited to Note 42 to the standalone Ind AS financial statements regarding companyâs investment of Rs. 491.67 lakh in a wholly owned subsidiary company in Sri Lanka by way of equity shares. The subsidiary company had filed an arbitration claim against the Board of Investment of Sri Lanka (BOI) which has been withdrawn during the year and company gone for settlement. The BOI has terminated the agreements for development of integrated township in Sri Lanka between the subsidiary and the BOI. During the year, the management of the subsidiary company has written off all assets. Now the subsidiary company does not have enough assets to redeem the said investment but management of the company is of the opinion that they will be able to redeem the said investment through the settlement and write down of Investment is not required at this stage.
b. We draw attention to Note 1.19 & 33 to the standalone Ind AS financial statements which describe the uncertainty relating to the outcome of certain matters pending in litigation with Courts/Appellate Authorities, pending the final outcome of the aforesaid matters, which is presently unascertainable, no adjustments have been made in these standalone Ind AS financial statements.

To the Members of Ansal Housing and Construction Limited
We have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting of Ansal Housing and Construction Limited (âthe Companyâ) as of March 31, 2018 in conjunction with our audit of the standalone Ind AS financial statements of the Company for the year ended on that date.
Managementâs Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls
The Companyâs 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 companyâs 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.
Auditorsâ Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Companyâs 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 âGuidance Noteâ) and the Standards on Auditing, issued by ICAI 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 auditorâs judgement, 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 audit opinion on the Companyâs internal financial controls system over financial reporting.
Meaning of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting
A companyâs 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 companyâs 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 authorisations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorised acquisition, use, or disposition of the companyâs 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.
Opinion
In our opinion, the Company has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system over financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as at March 31, 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.

ANNEXURE ''A''TOTHE INDEPENDENT AUDITOR''S REPORT OF EVEN DATE ONTHE STANDALONE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF ANSAL HOUSING AND CONSTRUCTION LIMITED
Report on the Internal Financial Controls under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Actâ) To the Members of Ansal Housing and Construction Limited
We have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting of Ansal Housing and Construction Limited ("the Companyâ) 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.
Auditor''s 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 Noteâ) and the Standards on Auditing, as specified 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 audit opinion on the 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.
Opinion
In our opinion, the Company has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system over financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as at 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 audited the accompanying standalone financial statements of
Ansal Housing & Construction Limited ("the Company"), which comprise
the Balance Sheet as at 31 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.
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 and presentation 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 of 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, 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 audit opinion on the standalone
financial statements.

The managerial remuneration paid to the Managing Director of the
Company during the year is in excess of the limit provided in Section
197 read with Schedule-V of the Companies Act, 2013 by Rs. 84.57 lacs

decided to apply to the Central Government under Section 197(10) of the

and Construction Limited ("the Company"), which comprise the Balance
Sheet as at 31 March, 2013, the Statement of Proft and Loss and the
Cash Flow Statement for the year then ended, and a summary of the
signifcant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Management''s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
The Company''s Management is responsible for the preparation of these
fnancial statements that give a true and fair view of the fnancial
position, fnancial performance and cash fows of the Company in
accordance with the Accounting Standards referred to in Section 211(3C)
of the Companies Act, 1956 ("the Act") and in accordance with the
accounting principles generally accepted in India. This responsibility

misstatements, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors'' Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these fnancial
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 the
ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the fnancial statements are free
from material misstatements.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about
the amounts and the disclosures in the fnancial statements. The
procedures selected depend on the auditor''s judgment, including the
assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the fnancial
statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk
assessments, the auditor considers the internal controls relevant to
the Company''s preparation and fair presentation of the fnancial
statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in
the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on
the efectiveness of the Company''s internal control. An audit also
includes evaluating the appropriateness of the accounting policies used
and the reasonableness of the accounting estimates made by the
Management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the
fnancial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufcient and
appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
