    Auditors and Auditors' Report

    At the 35th Annual General Meeting (AGM) of the Company held on September 14, 2021, the members of the Company had appointed M/s. Gokhale & Sathe, Chartered Accountants to hold office as Statutory Auditors for a period of three consecutive years till the conclusion of the 38th Annual General Meeting.

    As per the requirements of Guidelines dated April 27, 2021, issued by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) for Appointment of Statutory Central Auditors (SCAs) / Statutory Auditors (SAs) of Commercial Banks (excluding RRBs), UCBs and NBFCs (including HFCs), the Company has received a declaration from M/s. Gokhale & Sathe, Chartered Accountants, confirming their eligibility to continue to act as Statutory Auditors of the Company.

    The Auditors in their Report to the Members, have given the following qualified opinion and the response of the Administrator with respect to them are as follows:-

    1. Opinion on provision for impairment loss on assets and write back of liabilities - The Company is undergoing CIRP under the provisions of IBC. As per the provisions of IBC, the fair value and liquidation value of the assets of the Company as on the insolvency commencement date is required to be determined. The valuation reports have been received. The Management and the Administrator have represented that the liquidation value of the assets is higher than the book values and therefore no impairment is called for as at March 31, 2023. However, on completion of the CIRP, the Company will consider carrying out a comprehensive review of all the assets including investments, other assets and intangible assets, liabilities and accordingly provide for impairment loss on assets and write back of liabilities, if any. Though these have been placed before the Committee of Creditors, these have not been provided for audit on grounds of confidentiality. Consequently, we are unable to comment on the impact thereof on the Statement, if any.

    2. Opinion on the amount of the claims including claims on account of corporate guarantees invoked, admitted or to be admitted by the Administrator may differ from the amount reflecting in the books of account of the Company. The NCLT by its order dated April 12, 2023 has granted extension for completion of CIRP till July 16, 2023 and therefore pending final outcome of the CIRP, no adjustments have been made in the books for the differential amounts, if any, in the claims admitted as on the date of the financial results as compared to the liabilities reflected in the books of account of the Company.

    3. Opinion on Interest Expenses - In view of the ongoing CIRP, the Company has provided for interest expense on financial liabilities which may be applicable on the financial debt only upto December 6, 2021. Accordingly, interest expense pertaining to the year ended March 31, 2023 amounting to ' 1,60,859 lakh has not been recognised. Had such interest been recognised, the loss before tax for year ended March 31, 2023 would have been higher by ' 1,60,859 lakh. Further, the aggregate interest expense not recognized by the Company post December 6, 2021 is ' 2,09,949 lakh and had such interest been recognized, the net worth of the Company as at March 31, 2023 would have been lower by ' 2,09,949 lakh.

    4. Opinion on CoC discussions and its implications on financial statements - Certain information including the minutes of meetings of the Committee of Creditors are confidential in nature and accordingly has not been shared with Auditors. The Administrator and the management has confirmed that the CoC discussions held during the year do not have any implications on the financial statements since resolution plan is yet to be approved by the CoC.

    5. Opinion on Material Uncertainties related to Going Concern The Company has been admitted under the CIRP effective December 06, 2021 and as stipulated under Section 20 of the IBC, it is incumbent upon the Administrator to manage the operations of the Company as a going concern. The last date for completion of CIRP process has been extended by the NCLT to July 16, 2023. Accordingly, the Standalone Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2023 have been prepared on going concern basis. However, the Company has defaulted in repayment of the obligations to the lenders and debenture holders which are outstanding, has incurred losses during the period as well as during the previous periods, has reported negative net worth as at March 31, 2023 and previous periods and as described in Note no. 15 of the Standalone Financial Statements, the asset cover for Listed Secured Non-Convertible Debentures of the Company has fallen below one hundred per cent, which indicates that material uncertainty exists, that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a Going Concern.

    Response to Qualification

    Your Company is under CIRP and all claims and repayment obligations to lenders and debenture holders and impairment loss on assets and write back of liabilities shall be dealt as per CIRP.

    No fraud has been reported by the Auditors to the Administrator.
