We have audited the accompanying Standalone financial statements of
MEFCOM CAPITAL MARKETS LIMITED ("the Company"), which comprise the
Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2015, and the Statement of Profit and
Loss and Cash Flow Statement for the year then ended, and a summary of
significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Management's Responsibility for the Standalone 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 and presentation 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 the assets of the
Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other
irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting
policies; making judgements 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.
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 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, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on
whether the Company has in place an adequate internal financial control
system over financial reporting and the operating effectiveness of such
controls. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of
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 qualified audit opinion on the
standalone financial statements.

has not been worked out and accounted for on accrual basis as required
