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.

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Petron Engineering Operations Limited ("the Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2015, 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

The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the maters stated in Section 134(5) of the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act") with respect to 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 accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Accounting Standards specified under Section 133 of the Act, read with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and the 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 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 maters which are required to be included in the audit report under the provisions of the Act and the Rules made thereunder. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing, issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India, as 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 financial control relevant to the Company's preparation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on whether the Company has in place an adequate internal financial controls system over financial reporting and the 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 audit opinion on the financial statements.

Basis for Qualified Opinion

a) We report that in respect of certain contracts, as at March 31, 2015, trade receivables and unbilled revenue of Rs. 1,501 Lacs (net of provisions and mobilization advance of Rs. 4,240 Lacs) and Rs. 7,756 Lacs respectively are doubtful of recovery as the said contracts are under suspension or are delayed and the balances receivable from the customers are subject to final confirmation due to pending negotiations. Similarly, the trade payables to vendors in respect of the above mentioned suspended contracts as recorded in the books aggregating Rs. 1,323 Lacs are also subject to negotiations and final confirmation. In the absence of such confirmations and pending final outcome of the negotiations, we are unable to comment upon the amounts ultimately receivable/payable in respect of this contract and the consequential impact on the reported profit for the year ended March 31, 2015 and corresponding assets and liabilities as at that date. Our Audit Report on the financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2014 was also modified in respect of the above mater.

b) We report that the Company has recognized revenue of Rs. 2,555 Lacs (during earlier periods) on cost overruns arising due to design changes and delay in completion on certain contracts, without change orders/customer acceptance in respect of the same. Due to the uncertainty over ultimate collection and recoverability of the said amounts, we are unable to comment on the amounts ultimately receivable in respect of these contracts including consequential adjustments that may be required in this regard and consequential impact on the reported profit for the year ended March 31, 2015 and corresponding assets as at that date. Our audit report on the financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2014 was also modified in respect of the above mater.

c) We report that the Company has recognized revenues of Rs. 1,301 Lacs during the year ended March 31, 2015 on cost overruns arising due to design changes, contract interpretation issues and delay in completion on certain contracts, which in our opinion, should not have been recognized because they are not in accordance with the revenue recognition principles set out in the Accounting Standard AS 7 Operations Contracts. Accordingly the revenue, profit and unbilled revenue balance as of and for the year ended March 31, 2015 would be lower by Rs. 1,301 Lacs.

Qualified opinion

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, except for the possible effects of the maters described in sub-paragraphs (a) and (b) of the Basis for Qualified Opinion paragraph above and except for the effects of the mater described in sub-paragraph (c) of the Basis for Qualified Opinion paragraph above, the aforesaid financial statements give the information required by the Act in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of Affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2015, of its profit and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.

Re: Petron Engineering Operations Limited ('the Company')

(i) (a) The Company has maintained proper records showing full particulars, including quantitative details and situation of fixed assets.

(b) The fixed assets are physically verified by the management according to a phased programme designed to cover all the items over a period of three years which in our opinion is reasonable having regard to the size of the Company and the nature of its assets. Pursuant to the programme, certain fixed assets were physically verified by the management during the year and no material discrepancies have been noticed on such verification.

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Petron Engineering Construction 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 accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Accounting Standards notified under the Companies Act, 1956, read with General Circular 8/2014 dated 4 April 2014 issued by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs. This responsibility includes the design, implementation and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and presentation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor''s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. 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 audit opinion.

Basis for Qualified Opinion

a) We report that in respect of a contract, as at March 31, 2014, trade receivables (net of mobilization advance of Rs. 2,926 Lacs), unbilled revenue and trade payables of Rs. 1,267 Lacs, Rs. 6,256 Lacs and Rs. 1,826 Lacs respectively, are subject to final confirmation as the said contract is under negotiation. In the absence of such confirmations and pending final outcome of the negotiations, we are unable to comment upon the amounts ultimately receivable/payable in respect of this contract and the consequential impact, if any, on the reported profit for the year ended March 31, 2014 and corresponding assets and liabilities as at that date. Our Audit Report on the financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2013 was also modified in respect of the above matter.

b) The Company has recognised revenue and receivables of Rs. 3,811 Lacs on certain projects arising out of design changes and/or scope variations for which acceptances by the clients are awaited. The amount of such acceptances cannot therefore be measured reliably. In the absence of sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the extent to which such claims /scope variations will be accepted by the clients, we are unable to comment on the appropriateness of such revenues as recorded in the financial statements, the amounts that will be ultimately realised and the consequential impact, if any, on the reported profit for the year ended March 31,2014 and corresponding assets and liabilities as at that date.

Qualified opinion

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, except for the possible effects of the matters described in sub paras (a) and (b) of the Basis for Qualified Opinion paragraph, the financial statements give the information required by the Companies Act, 1956 ("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 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

(a) We draw attention to Note X in the financial statements, which describes the uncertainty related to the outcome of the winding up petition filed against the Company by a vendor, more fully described therein. Our opinion is not qualified in respect of this matter.

(b) We draw attention to Note XI in the financial statements, which discusses liquidity issues being faced by the Company and management''s plan and other mitigating factors to counter these issues. These conditions, along with other matters as set forth in aforesaid note, indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast a doubt about the Company''s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not qualified in respect of this matter.
