We have audited the accompanying financial statement of K.S.OILS
LIMITED ('the company') which comprise the balance sheet as at 31st
March 2015 and the Statement of Profit & Loss and the cash fow
statement for the period 1st April 2014 to 31 March 2015 and a summary
of significant policies and other explanatory information.
Management's Responsibility 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 these standalone financial statements that give a
true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance 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, 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 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.
Auditor's Responsibility
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 the provisions of the Act and the Rules made
there under.
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 except with regard to the matters
discussed below where we have not been able to perform the audit in
conformity with the relevant auditing standard on account of
unavailability of adequate documents/information
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about
the amounts and the 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. 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.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and
appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the standalone
financial statements.
Basis for qualified opinion
1. As regards trade receivables, inventory, costs, production margin
and sales price of goods sold, we state that:
a) The company has made provision for bad and doubtful debts for
Rs.4736 Lacs (Previous year 87987) on the basis of the management
evaluation.
In absence of confirmation of balances trade receivable as on
31.03.2015 , provision to be made if any for adverse variation in the
carrying amount of these balances are not quantified.
b) Position of inventory is as per management as more details in note
no.36. As explained in the note, we could not observe inventory count
as required under SA 501(Revised) 'Audit evidence -Specific
Consideration for selected Items'.
c) Attention is invited to Note 35 on the explanation of the management
with regard to abnormal variations/fluctuations in costs, production
margin and sales price. We are unable to comment on these, being a
technical matter.
2. In the absence of details of testing for impairment of certain
assets viz. Production plants which were not operational/fully
operational during the period, we are unable to state whether
provision, if any, is required to be made in this regard.
3. Out of transactions of purchase and sales of goods selected on a
sample basis; in some cases, full supporting documents were not made
available for our verification.
4. Loan and Advances include advances aggregating Rs38424 Lacs given
to some of the suppliers which include advances Rs.26514 Lacs
outstanding for more than a year. Relevant documents and confirmations
of balances are yet to be obtained.
5. The company has given loans of Rs.1295 Lacs to its step-down
subsidiary K S OILS SDN BHD. The net worth of the subsidiary is eroded
significantly for the accounting period ended March 31, 2015 due to
accumulated losses of Rs. 549 Lacs . No provision has been made for any
doubtful recovery as it is not ascertainable.
6. Company has taken an average rate (for goods for trading and
manufacturing) to determine the value of cost of goods. Consequently,
the result of such trading transactions and the closing inventory of
such goods have not been disclosed separately. This is also not in
conformity with the requirement of Revised Schedule VI.
7. The company had been served demand notice under section U/s 13(2)
of the Securitization and Reconstruction of Financial Assets and
Enforcement of security Interest Act, 2002 on dated 26th Dec.2013 for
Wind Energy Business and 4th March 2014 for Edible Oil Business for
payment of Outstanding principal amount including interest etc. within
60 days from the date of notice.
As stated in the Note no.33, pending quantification of interest
payable, penalty, other financial charges, the ultimate liability for
financial charges and related impact on reported loss is not|
quantifiable for the period and the Company has not provided interest
liability for the current financial year.
8. The financial statements of company have been prepared on a going
concern assumption, though the company has incurred a net loss of Rs.
22987 Lacs during the twelve months period ended March 31, 2015 and its
net worth has eroded totally, CDR of the company has been called off
and it has been served SARFAESI Notices by bankers & financial
institutions for payment of loans. This situation indicates the
existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt on
the company's ability to continue as a going concern and therefore it
may be unable to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in
normal course of business. The Company's ability to continue as a
going concern is dependent upon the factors mentioned in Note 37.
9. Attention is invited to the following Notes forming part of the
financial statements:
a) Note no. 30 With regard to certain contingent liabilities, whose
impact is not ascertainable.
b) Note no. 31 with regard order of settlement passed in the favor of
