Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit of the Standalone Financial Statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under section 143(10) of the Act. Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the âAuditor''s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statementsâ 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 (ICAI) together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the Standalone Financial Statements under the provisions of the Act and the Rules made thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities 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 audit opinion on the Standalone Financial Statements.

Emphasis of Matter

We draw attention to the following matters:

a) Note No. 40 (1)(i) of the accompanying Standalone Financial Statements which describes the uncertainty related to the outcome of the lawsuits filed and demands raised against the Company by various parties and Government authorities;

b) Note No. 40(5) of the accompanying Standalone Financial Statements which states that the Lease agreement for Rakha Mining Lease at the Indian Copper Complex was valid up to 28.08.21. It is also to be noted that the Lease agreement for Kendadih mines expire on 02.06.23. Application for renewal for both the lease agreements have been submitted as per regulations, and is currently under process.

c) Note 40(5) of the Standalone Financial Statements which states that the mined-out ore kept at pit top of Surda mine has not been transported to the Concentrator Plant since July 2022, due to non-issuance of challan/permit by State Authorities, Jharkhand due to non-receipt of Surda Lease Deed, which is under process. Consequently the vendor bills are lying unprocessed and further extraction of ore is currently not happening.

d) Note No.40(6) the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements wherein the Company has made assessment of possible impairment loss during the year with respect to Plant and Machinery at the Nickel Plant and Moubhandar Plant, having book value of ''5,649.07. The study revealed that the fair market value of the specified Plant and Machinery as on 31st March 2023, was higher than their Book value and consequently there was no requirement to recognize any Impairment Loss during the year, as per provisions of Ind AS 36

e) Note No.40 (7) of the accompanying Standalone Financial Statements which states that the title deeds for freehold

and leasehold land and building acquired in respect of Gujarat Copper Project (GCP) with book value of ''4,756.01 Lakh (PY:-''5,026.13 Lakh) as at March 31,2023 are yet to be executed in favor of the Company;

f) Note No.40 (9) of the accompanying Standalone Financial Statements wherein, balances under the head Claims Recoverable, Loans & Advances, Deposits from and with various parties and certain balances of trade receivables, trade payables and other current liabilities have not been confirmed as at March 31,2023, although letters have been sent by the Company seeking confirmation of balances. Consequential impact upon receipt of such confirmation / reconciliation / adjustments of such balances, if any is not ascertainable at this stage.

Our opinion is not modified in respect of these matters.

Information Other than the Standalone Financial Statements and Auditorâs Report Thereon

The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Report of the Board of Directors, Management Discussion and Analysis Report, Report on CSR activities, Business Responsibility Report, Corporate Governance Report and other annexure to Directors Report including Shareholder''s Information, but does not include the Standalone Financial Statements and our auditor''s report thereon. The Report of the Board of Directors including annexures and other related statements forming part of the Company''s annual report is expected to be made available to us after the date of our this auditor report.

Our opinion on the Standalone Financial Statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance or conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the Standalone Financial Statements, our responsibility is to read the other information when it becomes available 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.

If, based on the Report of the Board of Directors including annexures and other related statements which form part of the annual report and made available to us after the date of this audit report, we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to communicate the matter to those charged with governance

Responsibility of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Standalone Financial Statements

The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of 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, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Indian 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 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. In preparing the Standalone Financial Statements, the Board of Directors 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 the Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

The Board of Directors is also responsible for overseeing the Company''s financial reporting process.

Auditorâs Responsibilities for the Audit of the 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:

â¢ 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.

whether the Company has adequate internal financial controls system in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.

â¢ Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

â¢ 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.

â¢ 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.

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 year ended March 31, 2021. 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.

Sl. No.	Key Audit Matters	Auditorâs Response
1.	Assessment of Stripping Ratio and charging	Principal Audit Procedures
	of overburden expenditure during production	Our audit approach consisted testing of the design and operating effectiveness of the internal controls and substantive testing as follows: â¢ We went through the current status of the mining at different mines â¢ We discussed with the management about the stripping procedure adopted in the industry as well practice followed by the Company â¢ Procedure followed by the management towards Identification of expenditures incurred in surface mines during production stage â¢ Understanding the computation of Stripping ratio initially made and documents made available to us. â¢ We have checked the stripping ratio to be charged under amortization for mine development expenditure for balance period of mines â¢ Discussion with the core technical team involve in this process â¢ Reliance is placed on the representations of the management.
	stage of surface mines to Mines Development
	Expenditure and Profit and Loss account Referred in Note No.2 (11) and Note No.9 of the Standalone Financial Statements. Assessment of Stripping Ratio is technically estimated initially at the beginning of the Mines and later on periodically assessed for which no standards written policy are there. Normally review done within a period of 3 to 4 years as informed to us. In case of open cast mines, the expenditure on removal of waste and overburden, is capitalized and the same is depleted in relation to actual ore production during the year on the stripping ratio which is re-assessed periodically based on the estimated ore reserve as well as the quantity of waste excavation in respect of open cast mines. Assessment of Stripping Ratio is uniquely applied under the Mining industries which involves significant judgment to determine the ratio and that also keep on change from time to time. This ratio has been changed subsequently based on the actual output of overburden and Ore exposed during the production stage of the mines. We have identified this area as key audit matter due to its nature as industry specific and involvement of technical assumptions and judgments in calculation of stripping ratio. Further it has a material impact on the financial statements being this year the Company has amortized ''24006.83 Lakh (PY:-Rs.23904.06 Lakh) as Mine development expenditure in respect of open cast mines.

Assessment of indication of impairment and the

Principal Audit Procedures

recoverable amount of cash generating units

Our audit procedures related to assessment of indication of impairment and recoverable amounts of these CGUs included the followings:

â¢ Understanding and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of controls for identification and assessment of any potential impairment, including determining the carrying amount and recoverable amount of the CGUs;

â¢ Replying on the report of external agency appointed solely for evaluating the assessment of impairment at plants this year and calculating the recoverable amount and impairment loss

â¢ Using auditorâs own judgements/assessment for testing appropriateness of the method and model used for determining the recoverable amount, mathematical accuracy of the modelsâ calculations and evaluating reasonableness of key assumptions used in future cash flow projections such as future use of those assets or management plan;

â¢ Performing sensitivity analysis over key assumptions to corroborate that recoverable amount of these CGUs is within a reasonable range, including the impact of Covid-19 pandemic assessment; and

â¢ Testing related presentation and disclosures in the Standalone Financial Statements.

Based on the above procedures performed, we did not note any exceptions in the managementâs assessment of the indication of impairment and conclusion that the recoverable amount of these CGUs was not lower than their respective carrying amounts as at March 31, 2021.

(CGUs)

Refer Note No. 2.17, Note No.39 (27) and (28) of the accompanying Standalone Financial Statements.

External sources of information such as changes in the market and economic environment, including the carrying amount of the net assets of the Company being more than its market capitalization as at March 31, 2021, Idle plant and machineries for quite long time, decline in the demand and production process and impact of Covid-19 pandemic required Companyâs management to assess whether there is any indication of impairment and therefore make a formal estimate of recoverable amounts of certain plants and machineries at Gujarat Copper Project and COT plant at Malanjkhand Copper Project as at March 31, 2021.

Based on such indications, impairment testing was performed by the management in accordance with the requirements of Ind AS 36 âImpairment of Assetsâ. Management has calculated the recoverable amount of those plant and machineries using value-in-use method. This is a key audit matter, because of the significant carrying value of these CGUs and the estimation or uncertainty in assumptions used for calculating the recoverable amounts.

Information Other than the Standalone Financial Statements and Auditorâs Report Thereon

The Companyâs Board of Directors is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Report of the Board of Directors, Management Discussion and Analysis Report, Report on CSR activities, Business Responsibility Report, Corporate Governance Report and other annexure to Directors Report including Shareholderâs Information, but does not include the Standalone Financial Statements and our auditorâs report thereon. The Report of the Board of Directors including annexures and other related statements forming part of the Companyâs annual report is expected to be made available to us after the date of our this auditor report. 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 when it becomes available only 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.

When we read the Report of the Board of Directors including annexures and other related statements form part of the Companyâs annual report and made available to us after the date of our this auditor report, if we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to communicate the matter to those charged with governance.

Responsibility of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Standalone Financial Statements

The Companyâs Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of 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, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Indian 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 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.

In preparing the Standalone Financial Statements, the Board of Directors is responsible for assessing the Companyâs ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

The Board of Directors is also responsible for overseeing the Companyâs financial reporting process.

Auditorâs Responsibilities for the Audit of the 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 auditorâs 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:

â¢ 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 or 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 Act, 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.

â¢ Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

â¢ Conclude on the appropriateness of managementâs 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 Companyâs ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditorâs 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 auditorâs report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

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 auditorâs 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.

h) With respect to the other matters to be included in the Auditorâs Report in accordance with Rule 11 of the Companies (Audit and Auditors) Rules, 2014, in our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us:

Those Standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

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

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

iii. According to the information and explanations given to us, there were no amounts which were required to be transferred to Investor Education and Protection Fund by the company.

(Referred to in our report of even date)

(i) (a) The Company has not maintained proper records so as to show full particulars including quantitative details and situation of its Fixed Assets. The summary of discrepancies in the records are as below:

1. Fixed Asset Register does not show the following particulars in most of the cases:

a) Location/situation

b) Identification (Land may be identified by survey numbers and by deeds of conveyance, Railway sidings can be identified by length and location, Vehicles can be identified by reference to the registration books.). At the point of identification, a code number may be affixed on the asset which would give sufficient details for future identification.

c) Quantity

d) Component wise break up (Plant and Machinery may be sub-divided into fixed and movable)

e) adjustment for revaluation or for any increase or decrease in cost

f) particulars regarding impairment

g) particulars regarding sale, discarding, demolition, destruction, etc

h) particulars in respect of those items of fixed assets that have been fully depreciated or amortized or have been retired from active use and held for disposal.

i) particulars in respect of items of fixed assets that have been fully impaired during the period covered by the audit report.

j) name& designation of the person who has custody of the asset for the time being.

k) Deemed Cost, being the WDV as on 01.04.2015, which has been substituted in place of Gross Block.

(b) The company has a laid down programme of physical verification of its fixed assets by which all fixed assets are required to be verified in aphased manner over aperiod of three years. (Vide Clause No.26 of Note No. 39 - General Notes on Accounts). At TCP, GCP, ROSW and ROSE, the assets have not been verified during last 4 years. At KCC, the external agency engaged for physical verification has ascertained that 16 Nos. of Fixed Assets in 14 Assets Code, consisting of mainly heavy vehicles, having original cost of Rs.191 lakhs (WDV on 31.12.17 Rs.96 lakhs) were physically not available. However, in the same report, it has been mentioned that the same were lying at the Administration Office âas discussed during audit and over the phoneâ. This evidences that there is total lack of control on the safeguard and proper use of the assets.

(c) As such, we are not aware about the extent of material discrepancies, if any, of physical balance with book balance. In our opinion, the periodicity of physical verification having regard to the size of the company and the nature of its assets, is not reasonable.

(d) The Company, in spite of repeated assurances in the past few years as reported in the past audit reports, has not taken any steps to maintain Register of Land and Building (Immovable Property) showing the details of title deeds held in the name of the Company or otherwise including total number of such cases and whether the same are leasehold/freehold.

(e) Title deeds of all the immovable properties (except as specified on Emphasis of Matter paragraph as above) are held in the name of the Company. However, original title deeds are not made available to us except 11 flats at Panvel, Mumbai with original costofRs.11.27 lakhs (at present not being used).

(ii) (a) According to the information and explanations given to us, the inventories of Store & Spares have been physically verified by the management/ external agencies during the year. However, in the case of physical stock of Raw Material, Finished Goods and Semi Finished and In-Process Stock, is stated to have been physically verified at the yearend by the management and the same exactly tallies with the Book Stock. Therefore, no discrepancy between physical stock with the book stock has been determined. However, in view of the nature, volume and frequency of transaction, such NIL discrepancy in the Stock is not acceptable. In view of lack of authenticity of physical stock, we disclaim to express any opinion as to whether the periodicity of physical verification is reasonable having regard to the size of the company and the nature of its business. However, certain discrepancies arising out of verification of Store & Spares between the physical stocks and book records were noticed, which were material considering size of the Company and the nature of its business and the same have not been properly dealt with in the books of account. For example at KCC, shortage amounting to Rs.146 lakhs (which includes 192485 Ltrs of HSD valued at Rs.127 lakhs) was found apart from observation about several discrepancies in the maintenance of records. In the remarks, it is mentioned that,âFor the HSD Tank at Central Stores the move orders pending for transactions viz. .were entered and transacted. The physical qnty and book qnty is tallying. HSD qntyl61700 is available at KPOWER-K15 ORGas confirmed by Elec Dept.â There was opening provision ofRs.114 lakh and additional provision of Rs.33 lakh has been made to disclose the closing provision is of Rs.147 lakhs. Therefore, the discrepancy has not been properly accounted for. This evidences that there is lack of control on the safeguard and proper use of the assets.

(iii) The Company has not furnished us any register, if any, maintained under section 189 of the Companies Act, 2013. However, the Company has not granted any loans, secured or unsecured, during the year, to any companies, firms, limited liability partnerships or other parties. In view of above, the clauses 3 (iii)(a), 3 (iii)(b) and 3 (iii)(c) of the Order are not applicable.

(iv) According to information and explanations given to us, the company has not advanced any loan, given any guarantee or provided any security in connection with such loan and given/made any loan/investment within the meaning of section 185 and 186 of the Companies Act, 2013.However, since the Company has not provided the details of parties covered under section 185 of the Act, we are unable to comment on the matter of granting any loans or providing any guarantees or security to such parties, if any. The Company has made investments in the Mutual Funds, which is not the business activity of the Company. The reasons of such market risk bearing investment has not been explained to us.

(v) According to the information and explanations given to us, the company has not accepted any deposit from the public within the meaning of Section 73 to 76 or any other relevant provision of the Companies Act, 2013 and the rules framed there under and as such, reporting under this clause is not applicable to the Company.

(vi) According to the information and explanations given to us, maintenance of cost records by the Company has been specified by Central Government under sub section (1) of section 148 of the Companies Act, 2013.

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

We have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting of Hindustan Copper Limited ("the Company") as of 31st March 2017 in conjunction with our audit of the Ind AS 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 (''ICAI''). These responsibilities include the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to company''s policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Companies Act, 2013.

Auditors'' Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company''s internal financial controls over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting (the "Guidance Note") and the Standards on Auditing, issued by 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 auditor''s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the Ind AS 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 Company''s internal financial controls system over financial reporting.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting

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

Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting

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

Opinion

In our opinion, the Company has in place, 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 31^st March 2017, 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 financial statements of Hindustan Copper Limited ("the Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2014, the Statement of Profit and Loss and the Cash Flow Statement for the year then ended and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Management''s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation of these financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting standards referred to in sub-section (3C) of section 211 of the Companies Act, 1956 ("the Act") read with the general Circular 15/2013 dated 13 September 2013 of the Ministry of Corporate Affairs in respect of Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013. This responsibility includes the design, implementation and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and presentation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor''s Responsibility

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

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

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

Basis for Qualified Opinion

The Company''s inventories include Rs.6543.29 lakh being the amount computed by the company for the first time as cost of 27.50 lakh tonnes of Lean Ore as disclosed vide Clause 12 of Note No. 35 to the accounts (General Notes on Accounts). Prior to this year, Such Lean Ore was never taken into valuation of inventory by the company. This is a change in Accounting of Inventories of the company during the year under review.

Had the above change not been made, the cost of sales (change in inventory) would have been increased by Rs.6543.29 lakh and income tax, Net Profit and Shareholders'' fund would have been reduced by Rs.2224.06 lakh, Rs.6543.29 lakh, and Rs.4319.23lakh respectively.

Qualified Opinion

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, except for the effects of the matter described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion paragraph, the financial statements give the information required by the Act in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India:

(a) in the case of the Balance Sheet, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2014;

(b) in the case of the Profit and Loss Account, of the profit for the year ended on that date; and (c)in the case of the Cash Flow Statement, of the cash flows for the year ended on that date.

Emphasis of Matter

We draw attention to Clause 15 of Note no. 35 to the accounts (General Notes on Accounts) referred to in the financial statements which describe the Old Liabilities and Provisions Not Required being Written Back during the year under review amounting to Rs.1510.51 lakh.

Our opinion is not qualified in respect of this matter.
