The Key Audit Matters |
How the matter was addressed in our audit |
Contingent Liabilities related to claims against the company/Disputed demands (Refer Note No 45 of accompanying Standalone Financial statements) |
|
There are several claims and litigations pending before various forums against the company which have not been acknowledged as debt by the company and are disclosed as contingent Liabilities. Whether a liability is recognised or disclosed as a contingent liability in the financial statements is inherently judgmental and dependent on a number of significant assumptions and assessments. The eventual outcome of these legal proceedings is dependent on the outcome of future events and unexpected adverse outcomes could significantly impact the Company''s reported profits and balance sheet position. Considering the degree of management judgement in interpreting the various cases, including accounting estimates that involves high estimation uncertainty in relation to the exposure arising out the claims against the company/disputed demand, this matter has been identified as a key audit matter for the current year audit. |
Our audit procedure included, but was not limited to the following : ⢠Obtained an understanding of the management process for: s Controls and identification of legal actions initiated in respect of claims and disputed amount against the Company s Assessment of accounting treatment for each such litigation identified under Ind AS 37 and s Measurement of amounts involved. ⢠Obtained an understanding of the nature of litigations pending against the Company and discussed the developments during the year for key litigations with the management and respective legal department of the company. ⢠Assessed management''s conclusions through understanding precedents set in similar cases ⢠Evaluated the adequacy and completeness of disclosures made for their appropriateness in accordance with the applicable accounting standards |
Recognition and Measurement Deferred Tax Assets (Refer Note No 25 of accompanying Standalone Financial statements) |
|
As per IND AS 12, Deferred Tax Assets are the amount of income tax recoverable in future periods in respect of (a) deductible temporary differences (b) the carry forward of unused tax losses and (c) the carry forward of unused tax credits A deferred tax asset shall be recognised for the carry forward of unused tax losses and unused tax credits to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax losses and unused tax credits can be utilised |
Our audit procedure included, but was not limited to the following : ⢠Considered the company''s past and current years taxable profits, taxes paid, obtained details of carry forward losses under income tax and details of estimates of future taxable profits. ⢠Tested the period over which the deferred tax assets on such unused tax losses and unused tax credits would be recovered against future taxable income. |
Determination of probable future taxable profit is a matter of judgment based on convincing evidence. Considering the management''s involvement in estimation and judgment of determining the future taxable profits which have a degree of uncertainty, this matter has been determined as a key audit matter. |
⢠Tested the management''s under lying assumptions and judgments in estimating the probable future taxable profits and the existence of sufficient taxable temporary difference against which the unused tax losses or unused tax credits can be utilised by the company ⢠Assessed the adequacy and appropriateness of the disclosures in the Standalone financial statements. |
Property, plant and equipment (Refer Note No 5 of accompanying Standalone Financial Statements) |
|
During the year the company has incurred capital expenditure on various property, Plant and Equipment including the capitalisation of work in progress based on its readiness for intended use as determined by the management. The estimates of useful lives and residual value of Property, Plant and Equipment is a significant area which involves management judgement, technical assessment, consideration of historical experience, anticipated technical changes etc. Considering the materiality in the context of the balance sheet of the company and the level management judgement and estimates required, the above matter has been determined as a key audit matter |
Our audit procedure included but was not limited to the following : ⢠Assessed the nature of additions made to PPE and capitalisation of capital work in progress on a test check basis to test whether they meet the recognition criteria as per Ind-AS 16 -Property, Plant and Equipment, including its readiness for intended use as determined by the management. ⢠Understood, evaluated and tested the design and operating effectiveness of key controls relating capitalisation of various cost incurred. ⢠Reviewed the judgement and assessment of the management including the nature of underlying cost capitalised, determination of realisable value of the assets, appropriateness of assets lives applied in the calculation of depreciation ⢠Test checked the depreciation calculation ⢠Observed that the management has regularly reviewed the judgements and estimation. ⢠Assessed the adequacy and appropriateness of the disclosures in the standalone financial statements. |

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 scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
⢠Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the standalone financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
⢠Obtain an understanding of internal controls relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) ofthe Companies Act, 2013, we are also responsible for expressing an opinion on whether the company has adequate internal financial controls system in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.
⢠Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
⢠Conclude on the appropriateness of the 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.
⢠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 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.

Our opinion above on the Standalone Financial Statements, and our report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements below, is not modified in respect of the above matter
The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Board Report including Annexure to Board''s Report, Management Discussion and Analysis, Business Responsibility Report, Corporate Governance and Shareholder''s Information, but does not include the standalone financial statements and our auditor''s report thereon. The above referred information is expected to be made available to us after the date ofthis auditor''s report.

In connection with our audit of the standalone financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above 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. When we read the information, If, we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to communicate the matter to those charged with governance and take appropriate actions necessitated by the circumstances and the applicable laws and regulation.
The Company''s Board of Directors are responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the the Companies Act, 2013 (âthe Actâ) with respect to the preparation of these standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance, total comprehensive income, changes in equity and Cash flow 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 provision of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial control that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the standalone financial statement that give true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

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 ofthese standalone financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
⢠Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the standalone financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
⢠Obtain an understanding of internal controls relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Companies Act, 2013, we are also responsible for expressing an opinion on whether the company has adequate internal financial controls system in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.
⢠Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
⢠Conclude on the appropriateness of the 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.

Report on the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements Opinion
We have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements of MANGALORE REFINERY AND PETROCHEMICALS LIMITED ("the Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at 31st March 2019, the Statement of Profit and Loss (including Other Comprehensive Income), the Statement of Changes in Equity and the Statement of Cash Flows for the year then ended on that date and notes to the standalone financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information (hereinafter referred to as "the standalone financial statements").
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid standalone financial statements give the information required by the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act") in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read with Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, as amended, ("Ind AS") and the relevant rules issued thereunder, of the state of affairs (financial position)of the Company as at 31st March 2019, the profit (financial performance including other comprehensive income), changes in equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.
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 Companies Act, 2013. Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor''s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (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 thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the ICAI''s Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the standalone financial statements.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the standalone financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the standalone financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.
KEY AUDIT MATTER |
Contingent liabilities |
CRITERIA FOR DISCLOSURE AS KEY AUDIT MATTER |
Uncertainty of the outcome & the disputed amount involved |
PRESENT STATUS |
AUDIT APPROACH |
As per Ind AS 37- Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets, a contingent liability is a possible obligation arising from past events, the outcome of which will be confirmed only on the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events (Ind AS 37). There are several claims and litigations against the company which in the judgement of the management would not eventually lead to a liability. Hence no provision is made in the accounts for the year under audit. Should there be an adverse outcome, the Company may be liable to pay the disputed amount which may carry interest and/or penalty as decided by the adjudicating authority/statutory authority/court of law. |
As per the standard, once recognized as a contingent liability, an entity should continually assess the probability of the outflow of the future economic benefits relating to that contingent liability. If the probability of the outflow of the future economic benefits changes to more likely than not, then the contingent liability may develop into an actual liability and would need to be recognized as a provision. We have reviewed the list of claims and litigations against the company and considered the present status and probability of the outflow of the future economic benefits from the available records and taken written representations. Based on the information provided to us, that the contingent liabilities as mentioned in Note 45 of the Standalone Financial Statements fairly reflect the current position and no provision is called for at this stage. |
KEY AUDIT MATTER |
Impairment of Assets |
CRITERIA FOR DISCLOSURE AS KEY AUDIT MATTER |
Assumptions based on technical feasibility, economic feasibility and estimated future cash flows |
PRESENT STATUS |
AUDIT APPROACH |
As per Ind AS 36- Impairment of Assets, for investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures or associates, impairment has to be done when the carrying amount of such investment in the separate financial statement is higher than the carrying amount in the consolidated financial statements of the investee''s net assets, including associated goodwill. ONGC Mangalore Petrochemicals Limited being the subsidiary of Mangalore Refinery and Petrochemicals Limited, has incurred continuous losses which has led to erosion of net worth of the company. It has started making profits only in the last quarter of the current financial year. The management of ONGC Mangalore Petrochemicals Limited has estimated that it will make profits in the upcoming years based on various assumptions and projections which are subject to uncertainties. |
We have reviewed assumptions taken for projecting the future cash flows and the basis of criteria for the underlying preparation of these projections. Based on the representations provided to us by the management and the Statutory auditor of the subsidiary company, no impairment is required for the investments made in the subsidiary as at the end of the financial year. (Refer note no. 10 of the Standalone Financial statements). |
KEY AUDIT MATTER |
Actuarial Gains/ Losses |
CRITERIA FOR DISCLOSURE AS KEY AUDIT MATTER |
Assumptions taken for valuation of actuarial gain/losses |
PRESENT STATUS |
AUDIT APPROACH |
As per Ind AS 19- Employee Benefits, Actuarial gains or losses refers to an increase or decrease to a company''s estimate of their projected defined benefit obligation as a result of the periodic revaluation of assumptions. This involves a high degree of subjectivity and complexity. The Company uses a range of actuarial methodologies and methods to estimate these provisions. It requires significant judgement relating to certain factors and assumptions which include, but are not limited to, interest rates, inflation trends, rate of increase in salary, regulatory decisions, rate of employee turnover, historical claims information, mortality rate during and after employment and the growth of exposure. |
We have reviewed the projections and assumptions made by the company for providing for the actuarial valuation. We have also tested the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data that was provided to the actuaries against a source documentation. Based on the data provided to us and the review made by us, the actuarial estimate of the provision required for employee benefit appear reasonable. (Refer note no. 40 of the Standalone Financial statements). |
Information Other than the Standalone Financial Statements and Auditor''s Report Thereon
The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Management Discussion and Analysis, Director''s Report including Annexures to Director''s Report, Business Responsibility Report, Corporate Governance and Shareholder''s Information, but does not include the standalone financial statements and our auditor''s report thereon. The Annual report is expected to be made available to us after the date of this auditor''s 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 identified above 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 during the course of our 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.
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, total comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Indian accounting standards (Ind AS) specified under section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013.
This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the 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.
Those Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Company''s financial reporting process.
Auditor''s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone 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 audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these standalone financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
- Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the standalone financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations or the override of internal control.
- Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3) (i) of the 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.
- Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
- Conclude on the appropriateness of management''s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company''s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor''s report to the related disclosures in the standalone financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor''s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
- Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the standalone financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the standalone financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
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.

Auditors'' Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company''s internal financial controls with reference to these standalone financial statements 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") issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) and the Standards on Auditing prescribed under Section 143(10) of the Companies Act,2013 to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls. 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 with reference to these standalone financial statements 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 with reference to these standalone financial statements and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls with reference to financial statements included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls with reference to these standalone financial statements, 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 standalone financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the internal financial controls system with reference to these standalone financial statements of the Company.
Meaning of Internal Financial Controls with Reference to these Standalone Financial Statements

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 standalone financial statements.
Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls with Reference to these Standalone Financial Statements
Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls with reference to these standalone financial statements, 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 with reference to these standalone financial statements to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control with reference to these standalone financial statements may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Other Matters
As a part of the system audit initiative undertaken by the company, configuration testing on all SAP modules was conducted during the year. No material errors or fraud were observed by us on a testing of representative sample transactions on the potential high-risk control gaps identified by system auditors. The management has also confirmed that the deficiencies in the configurations have since been recalibrated to close all the control gaps.
Opinion
In our opinion, to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the Company has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial control system with reference to these standalone financial statements and such internal financial controls with reference to these standalone financial statements were operating effectively as at 31st March 2019, based on the internal control with reference to financial statements 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 considered the deficiencies in control gaps identified and reported above in determining the nature, timing, and extent of audit tests applied in our audit of the March 31, 2019 standalone financial statements of the Company, and these deficiencies in control gaps do not affect our opinion on the financial statements of the Company.
