TO THE MEMBERS OF SPEL SEMICONDUCTOR LIMITED Report on the audit of the Financial Statements Opinion
I have audited the accompanyingFinancial Statements of SPEL SEMICONDUCTOR LIMITED ("the Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2021, the Statement of Profit and Loss (including Other Comprehensive Income), Statement of Changes in Equity and Statement of Cash flows for the year then ended, and a summary of the significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
In my opinion and to the best of my information and according to the explanations given to us,the aforesaidfinancial 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, 2021, and the loss and total comprehensive income, changes in equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.
I conducted my audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013. My responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor''s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section in my report. I am independent of the Company in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements under the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 and the Rules thereunder, and I am fulfilled my other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. I believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my opinion.
Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern
I draw your attention to Note 3.15 of the Financial Statements of the Company. The Company has incurred losses and generated negative cash flows during the year and also in the earlier years which indicate existence of material uncertainty in the Company''s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. In order to continue the Companyis apparently dependent on the infused of sufficient funds and restructuring of operations. Based on the funds infused and business plans of the management, the Company is reasonably expected to carry on the operations as a going concern. On this basis the Company has prepared the financial statements on going concern basis. My opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
I draw your attention to Note 3.14 of the Financial Statements relating to amounts written off and written back for the year ended March 31, 2021 which were approved by a resolution passed by the Board of Directors.
I also draw your attention to Note 3.16of the financial statements which explains the uncertainties and the management''s assessment of the potential impact due to lock-downs and other restrictions and conditions related to the COVID-19 pandemic situation and consequently the Company''s results are highly dependent upon future developments, which are highly uncertain.
My opinion is not modified in respect of these matters.
Key audit matters are those matters that, in my professional judgement, are of most significant in my audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of my audit
of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming my opinion thereon, and I do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
Key Audit Matter Description |
Response to Key Audit Matter |
A. Revenue Recognition Reference may be made toNote 1B.2 of significant accounting policies and Note 2.1 and 3.5 to thefinancial statements of the Company. Revenue recognition is inherently an area of audit risk, which I have substantially focused on mainly covering the aspects of cut off. Considering the above impact of Ind AS 115 and cut off are considered askey audit matters. |
Principal Audit Procedures Audit procedures relating to revenue comprised of test of controls and substantive procedures including the following: a Performed procedures to assess the design of internal controls established by the management and tested the operating effectiveness of relevant controls related to the recognition of revenue. c. Selected a sample of sale orders, and tested the operating effectiveness of the internal control, relating to identification of the distinct performance obligations and determination of transaction price. We carried out a combination of procedures involving enquiry and observation, re-performance and inspection of evidence in respect of operation of these controls. d. Tested, on a sample basis, whether specific revenue transactions around the reporting date has been recognised in the appropriate period by comparing the transactions selected with relevant underlying documentation, including goods delivery notes, customer acknowledgement/proof of acceptance and the terms of sale. e. Also validated subsequent credit notes and sales returnsup to the date of this Report to ensure the appropriateness and accuracy of the revenue recognition. f. Tested journal entries on a sample basis to identify any unusual or irregular items. g. Also considered the adequacy of the disclosures in Company''s financial statements in relation to Ind AS 115 and were satisfied they meet the disclosure requirements. Conclusion Based on the procedures performed above, nomaterial exceptions were found with regards to timing of revenue recognition and disclose requirement as per Ind AS 115 in the financial statements |
B. Inventory valuation Reference may be made to Note 1B.11 of significant accounting policies and Note 1.4to the financial statements of the Company. |
Principal Audit Procedures Audit procedures comprised of the following: a. Verified the maintenance of Stock Records with respect to Raw materials, consumables and Finished Goods.The inventory was verified physically by managementduring the year and no |
ie valuation of raw material, stores and consumable items held for production have been an area of our focus in viewof low operating margins. aluation of Inventory in accordance with Ind AS 2 has thus been considered as a key audit matter. |
material discrepancies were found that needed to be dealt with in the books of accounts. b. Selected a sample of items of Raw materials, stores and consumable items held for production to check whether the rate per unit adopted for valuation is reflective of the last purchase . Conclusion Based on the procedures performed above, it wasconcluded that management has complied with the requirements of Ind AS 2 "Inventories". |
c. Actuarial valuation Reference may be made to Note 1B.5 of significant accounting policies and Note 3.2 to the financial statements of the Company. There is a risk of material misstatement relating to the judgments made in valuing the defined benefit obligation including the use of key assumptions specifically the discount rate, life expectancy and inflation level. These variables can have a material impact in calculating the quantum of the retirement benefit liability. |
Principal Audit Procedures Audit procedures comprised of the following: a. Determined whetherthe key assumptions adopted in the actuarial reports are reasonable. b. Assessed the competence, capabilities and objectivity of the expert, gained an understanding of their work and the suitability of the results as audit evidence for the relevant assertions. c. Examined the data made available to the experts for completeness and accuracy and gained an understanding of the process to determine the calculation and inputs used. Conclusion Based on the procedures performed above, no material exceptions was found with regards to the use of assumptions and actuarial valuation |
?.impairment in Trade Receivables Reference may be made to Note 1B.5 and 1B.13 of significant accounting policies and Note 1.5 and Note 3.4 to the financial statements of the Company The Company is exposed to potential risk of financial loss when there is the risk of default on receivables from the customers for which the Management would make specific provision against individual balances with reference to the recoverable amount. For the purpose of impairment assessment, significant judgements and assumptions, including the credit risks of customers, the timing and amount of realization of these receivables, are required for the identification of impairment events and the determination of the impairment charge. |
Principal Audit Procedures Performed the following procedures in relation to the recoverability of trade receivable a. Tested the accuracy of aging of trade receivablesat year end on a sample basis b. Obtained a list of outstanding receivables and identified any debtors with financial difficulty through discussions with management. c. Assessed the recoverability of the unsettledreceivables on a sample basis through our evaluation of management''s assessment withreference to the credit profile of the customers,historical payment pattern of customers, publiclyavailable information and latest correspondence with customers and to consider if any additionalprovision should be made; d. Tested subsequent settlement of trade receivables after the balance sheet date on a sample basis |
Conclusion Based on the above procedures, the key judgments and assumptions used by management in the recoverability assessment of trade receivableswere found to be supportable based on the available evidence. |
|
E.Non-Payment/Belated Payment of Statutory Dues Company has not paid/paid belatedly various undisputed statutory dues. ayment of statutory dues regularly and within time reflects on the health of the company apart from the need for us to report on issues of non-compliance to members. e have, therefore, considered payment of statutory dues as a key audit matter. |

Information other than the Financial Statements and Auditor''s Report thereon
The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Management Discussion and Analysis, Board''s Report including Annexures and Shareholder''s Information but does not include the financial statements and our auditor''s report thereon.
My opinion on the 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 financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the 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 the financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the accounting Standards specified under section 133 of the Act. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding 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 financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, management 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 management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Company''s financial reporting process. Auditor''s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
My 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 my 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 financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, I exercise professional judgement and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. I also:
⢠Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
⢠Obtain an understanding of internal financial control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances.
⢠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 I conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor''s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. My conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of my 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 financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the financial statements that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the financial statements may be influenced. I consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (I) planning the scope of my audit work and in evaluating the results of my work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the financial statements.
I 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.
I also provide those charged with governance with a statement that I 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 my independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, I determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. I describe these matters in our auditor''s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, I 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.

ANNEXURE"A"TO THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS'' REPORT
(Referred to in paragraph 9 (g) under ''Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements'' of our report of even date on the accounts of SPEL SEMICONDUCTOR LIMITED ("the Company") for the year ended March 31, 2018)
Report on the Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act")
1. We have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting of SPEL SEMICONDUCTOR LIMITED("the Company") as of March 31, 2018 in conjunction with our audit of the Ind AS financial statements of the Company for the year ended on that date.
Management''s Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls
2. The Company''s Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial
Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. These responsibilities include the design,implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to company''s policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Companies Act, 2013.
Auditors'' Responsibility
3. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company''s internal financial controls over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting (the"Guidance Note") issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India 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 over financial reporting was established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.
4. Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system over financial reporting and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on the auditor''s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.
5. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Company''s internal financial controls system over financial reporting.
Meaning of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting
6. A company''s internal financial control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company''s internal financial control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of standalone Ind AS 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 company''s assets that could have a material effect on the standalone Ind AS financial statements.
Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting
7. 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.
Qualified Opinion
8. According to information and explanation given to us and based on our audit the following material weaknesses have been identified as at March 31, 2018:
(i) The Company did not have appropriate internal control system for customer acceptance and establishing customer credit limit for sale which could potentially result in the Company recognising revenue in the financial statements without establishing reasonable certainty of ultimate collection.
(ii) The Company did not have appropriate internal control system for inventory with regard to material issued for production, consumed and remaining in stock out of the said issue ie line work-in-progress. This could potentially result in material statement in Company''s closing line work-in-progress.
9. A material weaknesses is a deficiency or a combinations of deficiencies in internal financial control over financial reporting such that these is reasonable possibility that material misstatement of the company annual statements will not be prevented or deducted on a timely basis.
10. In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us except for the effects / possible effects of the material weaknesses described above on the achievement of the objectives of the control criteria, the Company has maintained in all material respects, adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting and such internal financial controls were operating effectively as of March 31,2018 based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.

5. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Companyâs internal financial controls system over financial reporting.
Meaning of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial
Reporting
6. 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 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 companyâs assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls
Over Financial Reporting
7. 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.
Qualified Opinion
8. According to the information and explanations given to us and based on our audit, the following material weakness has been identified as at March 31, 2016:
The Company did not have an appropriate internal control system for identification and valuation of nonmoving/obsolete box stock (Inventory-Work-in-progress) and this could potentially result in the Company recognizing inventory at erroneous values.
9. A âmaterial weaknessâ is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal financial control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the companyâs annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
10. In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, except for the effects/possible effects of the material weakness described in paragraph 8 above on the achievement of the objectives of the control criteria, the Company has maintained, in all material respects, adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as of March 31, 2016, based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.
11. We have considered the material weakness identified and reported above in determining the nature, timing, and extent of audit tests applied in our audit of the financial statements of the Company for the year ended March 31, 2016, and the said material weakness has affected our opinion on the Standalone financial statements of the Company and we have accordingly, issued a qualified opinion on the standalone financial statements of the Company for the year ended March 31, 2016.

appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
