Meaning of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting
A companyâs 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 companyâs 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 authorisations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorised acquisition, use, or disposition of the companyâs 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, to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, Company has, 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 March 31, 2018, based on the criteria for internal financial control over financial reporting 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.

Auditor's Responsibility
3. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these standalone
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
provisions of the Act and the rule made there under.
4. 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.
5. 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 operating
effectiveness of such controls. 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.
6. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient
and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on standalone
of the financial Statements.
Basis of Qualified Opinion
a) As mentioned in note 23 (2) (b) of the financial statements
regarding non provision of Rs 6,83,060/- being amount payable to Tamil
Nadu Pollution control Board. Though Company has disputed the amount
payable to the Tamil Nadu Pollution Control Board, it has not taken any
legal remedy and accordingly no provision has been made by the Company
in this regard. As such we are unable to express any opinion as to the
effect thereof on the financial statements for the year.
b) As mentioned in note no 23 (2) (c) of the financial statements, the
balances of some of the trade receivables, Advance to Suppliers, Trade
Payables and Advance from customers and others are subject to
confirmation. As there has been no activity since 4 years and
confirmation from parties has not been received, as such we are unable
to express any opinion whether the amounts are recoverable or not and
as to the effect thereof on the financial statements for the year.
c) As mentioned in note no 23 (2) (d) of the financial statements, the
Company's Carry forward losses is more than 50% of its Net Worth and
has been incurring Cash Losses continuously. This factor along with
other matters such as Non availability of Power, Closure of Production
since February 2011 (there was no activity of growing Mushroom by the
Company since February 2011), this fact raise doubt that the Company
will be able to start production of Mushrooms.
d) The Company has Settled all its employees except 1 employee as per
Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, 12 (3) agreement with Workers' Union
(all the workers and their account have been Settled in the financial
year ended 31.3.2013and 31.3.2014. Further no new employees have been
recruited during the year ended 31.3.15, this fact raise doubt that the
Company will be able to continue as a going Concern. The Company's
ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon successful
restructuring and revival of its business. In Case the going concern
concept is vitiated, necessary adjustments will be required on the
carrying amount of Assets and Liabilities which are not ascertainable.
The Consequential effect of sub para (b), (c ) and (d) above on assets
and liabilities as at 31st March 2015 and the Losses for the year ended
31st March 2015 are not ascertainable. Had the effect of above as
stated in sub para (a) had been given the loss for the year would be
higher by Rs 6,83,060/-
7. Qualified Opinion
In our opinion, and to the best of our information and according to the
explanations given to us, except for the effect of the matters
described in the basis of qualified opinion paragraph as mentioned

b) In the case of the Statement of Profit and Loss, of the Loss for the

February 2011).
b) There is only 1 employee on the Company's Roll as on 31.03.2015.

due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor
considers internal control relevant to the Company''s preparation and
fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. An audit also
includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and
the reasonableness of the accounting estimates made by management, as
well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial
statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and
appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Basis of Qualified Opinion
a) As mentioned in no note 24 (2) (b) (i) of the financial statements
regarding non provision of Rs 6,83,060/- being amount payable to Tamil
Nadu Pollution control Board. Though Company has disputed the amount
payable to the Tamil Nadu Pollution Control Board, it has not taken any
legal remedy and accordingly no provision has been made by the Company
in this regard. As such we are unable to express any opinion as to the
effect thereof on the financial statements for the year.
b) As mentioned in note no 24 (2) (c) of the financial statements, the
balances of some of the trade receivables, Advance to Suppliers, Trade
Payables and Advance from customers and others are subject to confi
-rmation. As such we are unable to express any opinion as to the
effect thereof on the financial statements for the year.
c) As mentioned in note no 24 (2) (d) of the financial statements, the
Company''s Carry forward losses is more than 50% of its Net Worth and
has been incurring Cash Losses continuously. This factor along with
other matters such as Non availability of Power, Closure of Production
since February 2011 (there was no activity of growing Mushroom by the
Company since February 2011),
d) The Company has Settled all its employees except 2 employees as per
Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, 12 (3) agreement with Workers'' Union
(all the workers and their account have been Settled in the financial
year ended 31.3.2013. Further no new employees have been recruited
during the year ended 31.3.14, This fact raise doubt that the Company
will be able to continue as a going Concern. The Company''s ability to
continue as a going concern is dependent upon successful restructuring
and revival of its business. In Case the going concern concept is
vitiated, necessary adjustments will be required on the carrying amount
of Assets and Liabilities which are not ascertainable.
The Consequential effect of sub para (b), (c ) and (d) above on assets
and liabilities as at 31st March 2014 and the Losses for the year ended
31st March 2014 are not ascertainable. Had the effect of above as
stated in sub para (a) had been given the loss for the year would be
higher by Rs 6,83,060/-
Qualified Opinion
In our opinion, and to the best of our information and according to the
explanations given to us, except for the effect of the matters
described in the basis of qualified opinion paragraph as mentioned
above and read together with other notes, the accompanying 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 the Balance Sheet, of the state of affairs of the
Company as at March31,2014
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 flow for the
year ended on that date. Other Matter
1. We draw attention to the following facts
a) During the year under review there was no activity of growing
mushrooms (the company has not carried on any business activity since
February 2011).
b) There are only 2 employees on the Company''s Roll as on 31.03.2014.
c) The TNEB has disconnected power supply to the Company''s Plant since
3 years. Due to Non availability of Power and due to Non Maintenance of
the Plant & Machinery since last 3 years more importantly it''s
machinery, buildings, boundary fencing, and other infrastructure have
been badly deteriorated.
d) During the year under review, the Company has sold fixed assets
(Boiler, Cooling Tower, Growing room racks etc) whose original purchase
cost was Rs 1,23,65,846/- and the depreciated value was Rs 36,31,959/.
e) The total value of Inventories as on 31.3.14 was Rs 15,71,432/-.
This includes raw materials, Stores & Spares and other Inventories. As
there is no production activity since February 2011, the inventories of
the Company are old and obsolete

activity since February 2011, (there was no activity of growing
mushrooms by the Company during the year under review).
