We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Aruna Hotels Limited ("the Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31,2014, and the Statement of Profit and Loss and for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation of these 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 Standards referred to in sub-section (3C) of section 21 i of the Companies Act, 1956 ("the Act"). This responsibility includes the design, implementation and maintenance of internal control 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 financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing Issued by the Institute of chartered Accountants of India. 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.

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 statement, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risks 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 for Qualified Opinion

i. No confirmation of balances has been obtained from Financial Institutions, and other parties from whom loan was taken and interest there on. Confirmation of balances has not been obtained from creditors and debtors.

ii. The Company's inventories are carried in the Balance Sheet at Weighted Average Price. Management has not stated the inventories at the lower of cost and net realizable value but has stated them solely at cost, which constitutes a departure from the accounting standards referred to in sub-section (3C) of section 211 of the Act.

iii. The company has not produced the statutory records for verification, hence we cannot form any opinion on compliances of various acts including Companies, Act 1956.

The validity of the going concern assumption on which the financial statements are prepared depends on the continuance and the ability of the company to generate sufficient cash flows their operations. We do not have sufficient evidence to assess whether the company's plans/projection would materialize.

vi. The contingent liability of the company towards the pending cases are not ascertainable as on date, but if the decision is unfavorable it would materially impact the cash flow of the company.

vii. The Company has made provisions for gratuity in its books calculated as per Gratuity Act for the employees and which is contrary to the Accounting Standard on retirement benefits which is issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India as well as section 209(3b) of the companies Act, 1956. We are unable to quantify the difference amount based on the information available to the company.
