accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2025, and its loss including
other comprehensive income, changes in equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date
(hereinafter referred to as the “financial statements”).

current assets by Rs.21,095.71 thousand.

The Company had been reporting negative operating cash flows for few years which have also
contributed to constraints of working capital. These conditions have resulted in an acute
working capital deficit and have cast material uncertainty on the functioning of the Company.

As stated by the management of the Company, the accounts of the Company have been
prepared on a "going concern” basis as the management is hopeful that adequate finance and
opportunities would be available in the foreseeable future to enable the Company to start

operating on a profitable basis. In view of the above, the accounts of the Company have been
prepared on a going concern basis and do not include any adjustments relating to the
recoverability and classification of recorded assets amounts or to amounts or classification of
liabilities that may be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as going concern.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under Section
143(10) of the Act. Our responsibilities under those SAs are further described in the auditor''s
responsibilities for the audit of the 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 financial statements
under the provisions of the Act and the Rules thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical
responsibil ities in accordance with these requirements and the Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit
evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our qualified audit opinion
on the financial statements.

audit of the financial statements for the financial year ended March 31, 2025. These matters were
addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion
thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. In addition to the matter described

required to communicate the matter to those charged with governance and describe actions applicable

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company''s ability

Auditoi ’s Responsibilities for tlie Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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
dudit cuilductcd iii 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 financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain
professional skepticisin throughout the audit. We also:

• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the 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
tlint arc appropriatc in thc circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Act,

We are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the Company has adequate internal
financial controls with reference to financial statements 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 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 financial statements, including the

disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events
in a manner that achieves fair presentntion.

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.

\Vo olso provide tho3c chorgcd u''ith gox''ci nance with a ,slalriiiri if flint w< Irave ct>iuJil ieethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other

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 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 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 disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the Company's preparation 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 control system over financial reporting and the operating effectiveness of such controls. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of the accounting estimates made by the Company's Directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

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

Basis for Qualified Opinion

(i) The 5% Cumulative Redeemable Preference Shares of Rs 7,30,00,000 were due for redemption on 12th January, 2007. As per Section 55 of the Companies Act, 2013 (in read with Section 80 of the earlier applicable Companies Act, 1956), as applicable, such preference shares shall be redeemed either out of profits of the company which would otherwise be available for dividend or out of the proceeds of a fresh issue of shares made for the purposes of the redemption. The Company has yet not created Capital Redemption Reserve due to insufficient profits, required for the redemption of 5% Cumulative Redeemable Preference Shares of Rs 7,30,00,000 on 12th January, 2007 nor it redeemed the same by issuing fresh capital as per applicable new promulgated Section 55 of the Companies Act, 2013 (in read with Section 80 of the earlier applicable Companies Act, 1956). In view of above, there is contravention of Section 55 of the Companies Act, 2013. The same has also been explained in Note-1(vii) to the financial statements.

(ii)We have analyzed following factors :-

(a) The Company is not carrying on any business from considerable time due to paucity of funds. The operations of the Company are restricted to realization of debtors or advances. Besides, the Company has invested its surplus deposits with banks which are yielding interest income. There is no employee in the company.

(b) Reserve Bank of India has already rejected the Non Banking Financial Companies (NBFC) License and is Company accordingly is not allowed to carry Non Banking Financial Business; and

(c) The Company incurred a net loss of Rs. 3,58,693/- for the year ended 31st March, 2015 (Previous year Rs. 3,39,013/-) and accumulated loss as on 31st March, 2015 stands to Rs. 22,34,09,218/-(Previous year Rs. 22,30,50,525/-). As on 31st March, 2015, the Company's current liabilities exceeded its current assets by Rs. 1,48,02,721/- (Previous year Rs. 1,44,72,916/-) and its total liabilities exceeded to its total assets by Rs. 3,71,79,323/ - (Previous year Rs. 3,68,20,630/-). In view of these, the Company had been reporting negative operating cash flows for few years which have also contributed to constraints of working capital. These conditions have resulted into acute working capital deficit & have casted material uncertainty on functioning of Company.

As stated by the management the accounts of the company have been prepared on a "going concern" basis on an assumption & premises made by the management that adequate finances and opportunities would be available in the foreseeable future to enable the company to start operating on a profitable basis. In view of the above, the accounts of the Company have been prepared on a going concern basis. Refer Note-18.

Appropriateness of the "going concern basis" is dependent on the ability of the company to generate adequate finances to meet its obligations and to operate profitably which in our opinion after considering aforesaid factors indicate material uncertainty which further raises significant and substantial doubt on the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern and therefore, it may be unable to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. If the Company is treated not to be a going concern, then the valuation of assets has to be not merely on the basis of historical cost less depreciation or impairment but at a value which the assets would fetch, if the same are lower than the value presently shown. The Company has not attempted to assess the realizable value of the assets and therefore financial results for the year ended 31st March, 2015 have been prepared on a going concern basis and do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or to amounts or classification of liabilities that may be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Qualified Opinion

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, except for the possible effects of the matter described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion paragraph, the aforesaid standalone financial statements give the information required by the Act in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India of the state of affairs of the Company as at 31st March 2015, and its profit/ loss and its cash flows for the year ended on that date

Emphasis of Matter

We draw your attention to Note No-17 to the financial statements on Contingent Liability for non-payment of Cumulative Preference Dividend of Rs 6,28,20,000. Our opinion is not qualified in respect of this matter.

Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements

As required by the Companies (Auditor's Report) Order, 2015 ("the Order") issued by the Central Government of India in terms of sub-section (11) of section 143 of the Act, we give in the Annexure a statement on the matters specified in the paragraph 3 and 4 of the Order, to the extent applicable.

Management''s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation of these financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the Accounting Standards referred to in sub-section (3C) of section 211 of the Companies Act, 1956 ("the Act"). This responsibility includes the design, implementation and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and presentation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor''s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. W e conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. Those Standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

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

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

Basis for Qualified Opinion

(i) The 5% Cumulative Redeemable Preference Shares of Rs 7,30,00,000 were due for redemption on 12* January, 2007. As per Section 80 of the Companies Act, 1956, as applicable, such preference shares shall be redeemed either out of profits of the company which would otherwise be available for dividend or out of the proceeds of a fresh issue of shares made for the purposes of the redemption. The Company has not created Capital Redemption Reserve due to insufficient profits, required for the redemption of 5% Cumulative Redeemable Preference Shares of Rs 7,30,00,000 on 12* January, 2007 nor it redeemed the same by issuing fresh capital. In view of above, there is contravention of Section 80 of the Companies Act, 1956. The same has also been explained in Note-1 (vii) to the financial statements. In view of this non compliance, company & every officer of the company is in default as perthe provisions of Companies Act, 1956.

(ii) We have analyzed following factors :-

(a) The accounts of the company have been prepared on a "going concern" basis on an assumption & premises made by the management that adequate finances and opportunities would be available in the foreseeable future to enable the company to start operating on a profitable basis which Company is stating from so many year''s without providing concrete plan to revive the Company. The Company is not carrying on any business due to paucity of funds. The operations of the Company are restricted to realization of debtors or advances. Besides, the Company has invested its surplus deposits with banks which are yielding interest income;

(b) Reserve Bank of India has already rejected the Non Banking Financial Companies (NBFC) License and is Company accordingly is not allowed to carry Non Banking Financial Business; and

(c) The Net Worth of the Company has been eroded completely as the Accumulated deficit of the Company as at 31* March, 2014 stood at Rs. 22,30,50,525 (Previous year Rs.22,27,11,512) as compared to Share Capital and Reserve and Surplus of Rs(.3,68,20,630) (Previous year Rs.(3,64,81,617)) as on that date.

As aforesaid, the accounts have been compiled by the management on the basis of going concern as stated in Note Number-17, however after considering aforesaid factors, in our opinion the continuity of the Company as a Going Concern is doubtful. If the Company is treated not to be a going concern, then the valuation of assets has to be not merely on the basis of historical cost less depreciation but at a value which the assets would have fetched, if such values were to be lower than the value presently shown. The Company has not attempted to assess the realizable value of the assets and therefore, we are unable to express ouropinion on the impact on the accounts.

This responsibility includes the design, implementation and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and presentation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

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

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor''s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the Company''s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of the accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

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

Basis for Qualified Opinion

The 5% Cumulative Redeemable Preference Shares of Rs 7,30,00,000 were due for redemption on 12* January, 2007. As per Section 80 of the Companies Act, 1956, such preference shares shall be redeemed either out of profits of the company which would otherwise be available for dividend or out of the proceeds of a fresh issue of shares made for the purposes of the redemption. The Company has not created Capital Redemption Reserve due to insufficient profits, required for the redemption of 5% Cumulative Redeemable Preference Shares of Rs 7,30,00,000 on 1T January, 2007 nor it redeemed the same by issuing fresh capital. Preference Shares cannot be issued for the tenure of more than 10 years and aforesaid Preferences Shares are already outstanding for redemption beyond ten years which is not in line with Section 80 of the Companies Act, 1956. The same has been explained in Note-1 (vii) to the financial statements.

Our opinion is not qualified in respect of this matter.

We draw your attention to Note No-16 to the financial statements on Contingent Liability for non-payment of Cumulative Preference Dividend of Rs 5,55,20,000. Our opinion is not qualified in respect of this matter.
