Mar 31, 2015
We have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements of JCT
Electronics Limited ("the Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet
as at March 31,2015, and the Statement of Profit and Loss and Cash Flow
Statement for the year then ended, and a summary of 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 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
referred 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 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 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 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 adverse audit opinion on the
standalone financial statements.
Basis for Adverse Opinion
(i) We have analyzed following factors :-
(a) The financial statements have been drawn and are based on the
successful implementation of rehabilitation scheme announced by Board
for Industrial and Financial Reconstruction (BIFR) for the company. As
per Sanctioned BIFR Scheme, the revival of the company is dependent on
sale of land and building at Mohali Unit. As envisaged in sanctioned
scheme in 2007, the company's net worth could not turn positive in the
4th year of its implementation due to delay in sale of land & building
which is still pending. The tenure of scheme is ending in the year
2017. The Company has defaulted in payment of principal amount of Loans
of Rs. 10,670.42 Lacs (previous year Rs 6,977.43 Lacs) to Banks /
Financial Institutions for sixteen quarters starting from 1st April,
2011 to 31st March, 2015. This is in contravention of rehabilitation
scheme announced by BIFR vide its order dated 12th March, 2007. The
Company was unable to meet its obligations towards repayment of
quarterly installments due in respect of term/working capital term
loans as per BIFR sanctioned scheme, due to non availability of working
capital limits as envisaged in the sanctioned scheme and sluggish
market conditions during the year. As per the BIFR scheme, if the
company commits default towards repayment of principal installments as
per the sanctioned scheme or any combination, FIs / Banks reserves the
right to charge interest on the defaulted amount at top of the band
together with liquidated damages of 2% p.a. thereon till the date of
clearance of default or FIs / Banks shall have the right to convert its
entire overdue into fully paid up equity shares of JCTEL during the
currency of the loans as per SEBI guidelines, or otherwise but with the
permission of Hon'ble BIFR also reserve the right to revoke the package
of rehabilitation. In case FIs / Banks exercise the right of
revocation, the financial rehabilitation sanctioned or granted to JCTEL
shall be treated as withdrawn and the terms and the conditions of the
original loan agreements or documents shall come into force as if no
such financial rehabilitation were ever granted to JCTEL.
Further, FIs / Banks shall have the right to adjust payment received
under the present package of financial rehabilitation against
outstanding dues in terms of the original loan agreements/documents.
However with the consent of secured creditors, a Modified Debt
Restructuring Scheme (MDRS) has been submitted to the Hon'ble BIFR in
the month of October, 2012 requesting for reschedulement of repayment
of principal amount of secured loans within the scheme period. The same
was under consideration of the Hon'ble BIFR as at 31st March, 2014.
During the year ended 31st March, 2015, the matter has been referred to
Larger Bench to be headed by Chairman, BIFR & is pending.
Considering the magnitude of default coupled with delay in sale of
assets raises a doubt on the chances of recovery.
(b) The Company incurred a net loss of Rs. 7,263.97 Lacs for the year
ended 31st March, 2015 (Previous year Rs. 6,248.19/ Lacs) and
accumulated loss as on 31st March, 2015 stands to Rs. 69,828.84 Lacs.
As on 31st March, 2015, the Company's current liabilities exceeded its
current assets by Rs. 42,463.96 Lacs (Previous year Rs. 32,644.78/
Lacs) and its total liabilities exceeded its total assets by Rs.
55,307.79 Lacs (Previous year Rs. 48,035.70/ Lacs). 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.
(c) The Company had stopped production from August, 2013 onwards at its
only working plant at Vadodara, Gujarat and there has been no
production during the year ended 31st March, 2015, on account of non
availability of working capital for importing critical raw materials.
Considering aforesaid factors, the availability of requisite working
capital to commence its operations is doubtful.
(d) We understand that due to technological changes, there has been a
declining market for color picture tubes.
(e) Due to non release of need based working capital as envisaged in
the sanctioned scheme, the Company has not been able to settle dues of
running creditors.
(f) There has been constant reduction in the strength of staff.
The management of the company is however hopeful that its request for
Modified Debt Restructuring Scheme (MDRS) would be accepted by Hon'ble
BIFR and the Company would be able to arrange requisite working capital
for importing critical raw materials to start its production lines. The
management is confident that it would be able to dispose of its assets
as sanctioned in BIFR Scheme. The Accounts have been compiled by the
management on the basis of going concern. Please refer Note Number-29
to the financials.
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.
(ii) In the opinion of the management, accounts receivable, loans and
advances have a value on realization in the ordinary course of
business, at least equal to the amount at which they are stated in the
Balance sheet unless specifically provided for. During the financial
year ended 31st March 2015, company has not sought confirmations on
margin money account, trade receivable, trade payable and other
receivables/ payables. Accordingly the balances appearing under margin
money account, trade payables, trade receivables and other receivables/
payables are subject to reconciliation & confirmation and are described
in Note 33(a) to the financial statements. The financial impact of same
is not ascertainable and to that extent we do not have any information
in respect of such balances.
(iii) The Company is engaged only in manufacture of Color Picture Tubes
and Deflection Yokes at Vadodara Unit, Gujarat. This is the only
Business Segment of the Company. As per Accounting Standard-28 on
Impairments of as prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act,
2013 ('Act') read with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014
and as prescribed in the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006,
it is imperative to determine impairment in respect of cash generating
unit as per the methodology prescribed under the said Standard. However
the Management of the Company vide Note No- 30(d) states that there is
no impairment in respect of cash generating unit at Vadodara, Gujarat
since it has not completed its useful life and that the production will
be taken up when working capital is made available after the sale of
assets approved by BIFR. Further there is lot of appreciation in the
value of the land available at Vadodara. In light of the above we are
unable to ascertain financial impact of same.
Emphasis of Matter
The Company had received an unsecured loan from its holding company
namely Team Plus Securities Limited during the FY 2011-12 which is
outstanding as at 31st March, 2015. Section 185 of The Companies Act,
2013 stipulates that no company shall directly or indirectly advance
any loan to any person in whom the director is interested. Mr Arjun
Thapar is a director in both Team
Plus Securities Limited, the promoter and holding company, which has
advanced the loan and the Company (i.e. JCT Electronics Limited), its
subsidiary which had accepted the loan. The said loan of Rs 50 lacs is
still outstanding as at 31st March, 2015 and has not been returned by
the company. As explained by the Company, the amount was funded by the
promoter company to meet the shortfall in the resources of the company
for servicing the secured debts in terms of BIFR order which stipulates
that the promoters should meet any shortfall in the fund requirements
of the company for servicing the debts of the secured creditors. As
stated by Company, the said loan has not been returned by the company
as it cannot do so without the prior written approval of the lenders.
Further Team Plus Securities Limited is an NBFC and is authorized to
give loans as per its objects. However said NBFC is not charging any
interest at a rate not less than the bank declared by Reserve Bank of
India as stipulated by Section 186 of Companies Act, 2013. In our
opinion this is in contravention of the provisions of Section 185 of
Companies Act, 2013 which could attract penalties. Please refer Note -
38.
Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
Adverse Opinion
In our opinion, because of the aforesaid factors mentioned in the Basis
for Adverse Opinion paragraph, the aforesaid standalone financial
statements do not give the information required by the Companies Act,
2013 in the manner so required and also do not 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,
its profit/loss and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of JCT
Electronics Limited ("the Company"), which comprise the Balance
Sheet as at March 31,2014, and the Statement of Profit and Loss and
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"). 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 is 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 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 Company entered into a Memorandum of Settlement with the
worker''s unions at Mohali, Punjab crystallizing their dues at Rs 40
Crores as per directions of Hon''ble BIFR. The settlement has been
registered before the concerned authorities and submitted to BIFR. The
Company has not made any provision of crystallized dues of Rs 40 Crores
of workers/staff at Mohali and the same are to be settled out of the
sale proceeds of the Mohali assets as per the orders of Hon''ble BIFR.
Company states that the same shall be provided upon sale of Mohali
Assets. We are of the opinion that in view of Memorandum of Settlement
with the workers the company should make a provision of crystallized
dues of Rs 40 Crores, irrespective of sale of Mohali Assets in
accordance with Accounting Standard-28 on Provisions, Contingent
Liabilities and Contingent Assets issued by Ministry of Corporate
Affairs, Government of India and as prescribed in the Companies
(Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006. Accordingly, the net loss for the
year, accumulated losses & non current liabilities are understated to
that extent.
(ii) We have analyzed following factors :-
a) As per Sanctioned BIFR Scheme, the revival of the company is
dependent on sale of land and building at Mohali Unit. As envisaged in
sanctioned scheme, the company''s net worth could not turn positive in
the 4th year of its implementation due to delay in sale of land &
building which is still pending.
b) The Company has temporarily suspended its production of Color
Picture Tubes from August, 2013 onwards at Vadodara Unit at Gujarat &
there has been no production till 31st March, 2014, on account of non
availability of Working Capital for importing critical raw materials.
c) The gross carrying amount of product development under progress of
Rs. 140.95 Lacs being shown as Intangible under development has been
written off during the year ended 31st March, 2014 as Company did not
expect any commercial use.
d) The Company has defaulted in payment of principal amount of Loans of
Rs. 6,977.43 Lacs (previous year - Rs. 4,105.33 Lacs) to Banks /
Financial Institutions for twelve quarters starting from 1st April,
2011 to 31st March, 2014. The Company was unable to meet its
obligations towards repayment of quarterly installments due in respect
of term/working capital term loans as per BIFR sanctioned scheme. In
the event, the company defaults in its obligations towards repayment
of quarterly installments, the banks/FIs reserve the rights given in
the sanctioned scheme as mentioned in Para ''E'' of Note 27 regarding
levying of penalty. As referred in Note Number 28A (b), Modified
Debt Restructuring Scheme (MDRS) has been submitted to the Hon''ble
BIFR in the month of October, 2012 with the consent of secured lenders
which envisages re- schedulement of repayment of secured loan within
the scheme period besides other requests, which is pending approval
before BIFR as at 31st March, 2014.
The Accounts have been compiled by the management on the basis of going
concern as stated in Note Number-29, however after considering
aforesaid factors, in our opinion the continuity of the Company as a
Going Concern is doubtful. However, 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 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 our opinion on the impact on the accounts.
(iii) In the opinion of the management, Accounts Receivable & Loans and
Advances have a value on realization in the ordinary course of
business, at least equal to the amount at which they are stated in the
Balance sheet. During the financial year ended 31st March 2014
confirmatory letters have been sent to the sundry debtors requesting
them to confirm the account balances as on 31st March, 2014. A number
of parties have not yet confirmed the balances as on the date of
signing the financials. Accordingly accounts payable, other receivables
and payables and balances appearing under account receivables are
subject to reconciliation & confirmation and are described in Note
33(a) to the financial statements. The financial impact of this is not
ascertainable and to that extent we do not have any information in
respect of such balances. Besides, no confirmation is available for
margin money account with Allahabad Bank & PNB amounting to Rs. 39.14
Lacs. Accordingly the same is also subject to confirmation &
reconciliation.
(iv) Company made provision for diminution in value of Investment made
in the Equity Shares of India International Airways Limited in previous
years. Similarly Company has given short term loans & advances of Rs
57.24 Lacs to India International Airways Limited which is outstanding
for quite a long period. Management is of the view that such advance is
good & recoverable. However, besides diminution in value of shares,
such short term loan is outstanding for quite a long period, we are of
the opinion that a provision for doubtful debts should be made for
against this short term loan/ advances. Accordingly, the net loss for
the year, accumulated losses & current liabilities are understated to
that extent.
(v) Company is engaged only in manufacture of Color Picture Tube, and
Deflection Yoke at Vadodara Unit, Gujarat. This is the only Business
Segment of the Company. As per Accounting Standard-28 on Impairments of
Assets issued by Ministry of Corporate Affairs, Government of India and
as prescribed in the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006, it
is imperative to determine impairment in respect of cash generating
unit as per the methodology prescribed under the said Standard.
Management of the Company states that there is no impairment in respect
of cash generating unit at Vadodara Unit, Gujarat. We are unable to
express an opinion on this in the absence of any attempt having been
made by the Board of the Company to assess the recoverable value of
these cash generating unit by determining the higher of net selling
price of such cash generating unit and value in use determined by
computing present value of estimated future cash flows expected to
arise from the continuing use of cash generating unit and from its
disposal at the end of its useful life.
(vi) The financial statements have been drawn and are based on the
successful implementation of rehabilitation scheme announced by Board
for Industrial and Financial Reconstruction (BIFR) for the company.
Company has defaulted in payment of principal amount of Loans of Rs.
6,977.43 Lacs (previous year - Rs. 4,105.33 Lacs) to Banks / Financial
Institutions for twelve quarters starting from 1st April, 2011 to 31st
March, 2014. This is in contravention of rehabilitation scheme
announced by Board for Industrial and Financial Reconstruction (BIFR)
vide its order dated 12th March, 2007. The Company was unable to meet
its obligations towards repayment of quarterly installments due in
respect of term/working capital term loans as per BIFR sanctioned
scheme, due to non availability of working capital limits as envisaged
in the sanctioned scheme and sluggish market conditions during the
year. As per the BIFR scheme, if the company commits default towards
repayment of principal instalments or payment of interest as per the
sanctioned scheme or any combination, FIs / Banks reserves the right to
charge interest on the defaulted amount at top of the band together
with liquidated damages of 2% p.a. thereon till the date of clearance
of default or FIs / Banks shall have the right to convert its entire
overdue into fully paid up equity shares of JCTEL during the currency
of the loans as per SEBI guidelines, or otherwise but with the
permission of Hon''ble BIFR, FIs / Banks also reserves the right to
revoke the package of rehabilitation with the prior approval of BIFR
and in such event of revocation, the decision of FIs / Banks shall be
final and binding on the borrower and/or guarantors. In case FIs /
Banks exercise the right of revocation, the financial rehabilitation
sanctioned or granted to JCTEL shall be treated as withdrawn and the
terms and the conditions of the original loan agreements or documents
shall come into force as if no such financial rehabilitation were ever
granted to JCTEL. Further, FIs / Banks shall have the right to adjust
payment received under the present package of financial rehabilitation
against outstanding dues in terms of the original loan agreements/docum
-ents. However with the consent of secured creditors, a Modified Debt Restructuring Scheme (MDRS) has been submitted to the Hon''ble BIFR in
the month of October, 2012 towards re-schedulement of repayment of
secured loan and interest thereon within the scheme period The same is
under consideration of the Hon''ble BIFR as at 31st March, 2014. The
same is described in Note 28A(b) to the Financials Statements. Our
opinion is subject to approval of re- schedulement of repayment of
secured loan and interest thereon within the scheme period submitted
in the said MDRS by Hon''ble BIFR.
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 Statement of Profit and Loss, of the loss for the
year ended on that date; and
c) in the case of the Cash Flow Statement, of the cash flows for the

Emphasis of Matter
We draw your attention to Note No. 5 on actuarial valuation of
Gratuity. The Company has obtained its actuarial valuation done from
LIC of India from where the Company has taken policy. The actuarial
valuation conducted by LIC though has been carried out by using
Projected Unit Cost Method however the same is not in accordance with
the disclosure requirements prescribed by Accounting Standard-15 on
Employee Benefits issued by Companies (Accounting Standard), Rules,
2006. The disclosures required for categorizing liability as Current
and Non Current Liability is not determined by LIC. Hence total amount
of provision towards gratuity has been kept as Non Current by the
Company. There are no monetary implications on the financials
statements. Our opinion is not qualified in respect of this matter.

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of JCT
Electronics Limited ("the Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet
as at March 31, 2013, and the Statement of Profit and Loss and Cash
Flow Statement for the year then ended, and a summary of significant
accounting policies and other explanatory information.
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 Stan- dards 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.
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 state- ments 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.
(i) The Company has not made any provision i''or dues of Rs 40 Crores of
JCT Electronics Employees Union at Mohali. The same has been described
in Note 29A(f) to the Financials Statements. The net loss for the year,
accumu- lated losses & non current liabilities are understated to that
extent.
(ii) It has been assumed that the revival of the company will take
place in near future. The accounts of the company have been prepared on
a "going concern" basis on an assumption made by the management that
adequate finances and opportunities would be available in the
foreseeable future to enable the company to operate on a profitable
basis. The same has been described in Note 30 to the Financials
Statements.
(iii) The Company has not made any provision of likely substantial loss
on impairment of inventory of Rs 1,376.44 lacs at Mohali unit. The same

for the year and accumulated losses are understated to that extent &
Inventory is overstated to that extent.
(iv) Sundry Debtors, Sundry Creditors, other receivables and payables
are subject to reconciliation & confirmation. The same is described in
Note 34(a) to the Financials Statements. The financial impact on the

(v) The financial statements have been drawn and are based on the
successful implementation of rehabilitation scheme announced by Board
for Industrial and Financial Reconstruction (BIFR) for the company. The
Company has defaulted in payment of principal amount of Loans of Rs
4105.33 Lacs to Banks / Financial Institutions for eight quarters
starting from 1st April, 2011 to 31st March, 2013. This is in
contravention of rehabilitation scheme announced by Board for
Industrial and Financial Reconstruction (BIFR) vide its order dated
12th March, 2007. The Company was unable to meet its obligations
towards repayment of quarterly installments due in respect of
term/working capital term loans as per BIFR sanctioned scheme, due to
non availability of working capital limits as envisaged in the
sanctioned scheme and sluggish market conditions during the year. As
per the BIFR scheme, if the company commits default towards repayment
of principal instalments or payment of interest as per the sanctioned
scheme or any combination, FIs / Banks reserves the right to charge
interest on the defaulted amount at top of the band together with
liquidated damages of 2% p.a. thereon till the date of clearance of
default or FIs / Banks shall have the right to convert its entire
overdue into fully paid up equity shares of JCTEL during the currency

revoke the package of rehabilitation with the prior approval of BIFR
and in such event of revocation, the decision of FIs / Banks shall be
final and binding on the borrower and/or guarantors. In case FIs /
Banks exercise the right of revocation, the financial rehabilitation
sanctioned or granted to JCTEL shall be treated as withdrawn and the
terms and the conditions of the original loan agreements or documents
shall come into force as if no such financial rehabilitation were ever
granted to JCTEL. Further, FIs / Banks shall have the right to adjust
payment received under the present package of financial rehabilitation
against outstanding dues in terms of the original loan
agreements/documents. After taking consent of secured creditors, a

valuation conducted by LIC though has been carried out by using
Projected Unit Cost Method however the same is not in accordance with
die disclosure requirements prescribed by Accounting Standard-15 on
Employee Benefits issued by Companies (Ac- counting Standard), Rules,
2006. The disclosures required for categorizing liability as Current

of provision towards gratuity has been kept as Non Current by the
Company. There are no monetary implications on the financials
statements. Our opinion is not qualified in respect of this matter.
