In accordance with the Companies Act 2013, it is proposed to ratify the appointment till the conclusion of the 18th Annual General Meeting, subject to the approval of shareholders.
The Auditors have given certain observations in their Audit report as under:
(a) The holding company and its subsidiaries has made certain advances amounting to Rs. 575 Lakhs during the previous financial year for which documents related to such advances given by the group companies were not available as the documents were impounded by the income tax authorities as mentioned in note no 29 of the financial statements. Further, confirmation from the parties as at end of the year was not found on records. In view of non-availability of related documents and other alternate audit evidence to corroborate the managementâs assessment of recoverability of these advances, we are unable to comment on the extent to which these balances are recoverable.
For the above observation, your Directors would like to state that the said parties could not give balance confirmation certificates in view of the fact that the enquiries of the Income Tax Authorities are still continuing. However, your Directors are following up with the respective Companies for the Balance Confirmation Certificates and are hopeful to get the same as soon as possible. It is pertinent to mention the advances stand good as and when the project takes off the ground which is stalled due to ongoing investigations.
(b) We draw attention to note 27 to Financial Statement regarding the investment made by amounting Rs.68 Lakhs in a subsidiary, who has suffered recurring losses and has a net capital deficiency. The financial statements of that subsidiary have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements of holding company do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts that might result that the subsidiary be unable to continue as a going concern.
Though there is an accumulated loss in the subsidiary company, the said company viz. Venture Infrastructure Limited, has not bagged new projects or work orders due to recession scenario around in infrastructure areas.. However, lot of bids are still open for participation and the said company will bag some orders in the near future and hence your directors are of the opinion that no adjustment is required at this stage and the same will be done at the appropriate time.
(c) in respect of provision for impairment of goodwill, aggregating to Rs. 68,40,411/- arising on consolidation of a subsidiary, whose net worth is substantially eroded as at March 31, 2016, not considered necessary by the management. In absence of valuation of investments in the subsidiary, we are unable to comment whether any impairment of goodwill is required.
The position with regard to the subsidiary in question has been explained to the reply for the observation at Point No. (b) above.

conclusion of the 17th Annual General Meeting, subject to the approval

The Auditors have given certain observations in their Audit report as
under:
(a) The holding company and its subsidiaries has made certain advances
amounting to Rs. 575 Lakhs for which documents related to such advances
given by the group companies were not available as the documents were
impounded by the income tax authorities as mentioned in note no 29 of
the financial statements. Further, confirmation from the parties as at
end of the year was not found on records. In view of non-availability
of related documents and other alternate audit evidence to corroborate
the management's assessment of recoverability of these advances, we are
unable to comment on the extent to which these balances are
recoverable.
For the above observation, your Directors would like to state that the
said parties could not give balance confirmation certificates in view
of the fact that the Income Tax Authorities are conducting consequent
inquiries with the respective Companies. However, your Directors are
following up with the respective Companies for the Balance Confirmation
Certificates and are hopeful to get the same as soon as possible.
(b) We draw attention to note 27 to Financial Statement regarding the
investment made by amounting Rs.68 Lakhs in a subsidiary, who has
suffered recurring losses and has a net capital deficiency. The
financial statements of that subsidiary have been prepared assuming that
the Company will continue as a going concern. These conditions raise
substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The
financial statements of holding company do not include any adjustments
relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying
amounts that might result that the subsidiary be unable to continue as a
going concern.
Though there is an accumulated loss in the subsidiary company, the said
company viz. Venture Infrastructure Limited, has not bagged new
projects or work orders due to recession scenario around. However, lot
of bids are still open for participation and the said company will bag
some orders in the near future and hence your directors are of the
opinion that no adjustment is required at this stage and the same will
be done at the appropriate time.
(c) We draw attention to the note 30 of the financial statements
whereby the holding company has raised the money by way of Public
Issue, during the year. Further, there has been variation in the
utilisation of money, between the objects of public issue contained in
the prospectus and actual utilisation, which was need to be authorised
from the members. In view of this, we are unable to comment upon the
appropriateness of variation in utilisation of money by holding
company.
At the outset, your directors would clarify that the variation is
between the Heads of expenditure envisaged. This variation has been
necessitated due to the fact that the infrastructure projects, which
are handled by your Company, require huge capital lay out and are
capital intensive in nature which leads to long gestation period
obviously causing slight mismatch with projections as originally
envisaged and hence your directors would like to justify this
variation.
(d) In respect of provision for impairment of goodwill, aggregating to
Rs.66,65,123 arising on consolidation of a subsidiary, whose net worth
is substantially eroded as at March 31,2015, not considered necessary
by the management. In absence of valuation of investments in the
subsidiary, we are unable to comment whether any impairment of goodwill
is required.
The position with regard to the subsidiary in question has been
explained to the reply for the observation at Point No. (b) above.
