Basis for Opinion
3. I conducted my audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing ("SAs”) specified under section 143(10) of the Act. My responsibilities under those SAs are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of my report. I am independent of the Company in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India ("ICAI”) together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to my audit of the Financial Statements under the provisions of the Act, and the rules thereunder, and I have fulfilled my other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the Code of Ethics. I believe that the audit evidence I have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my opinion on the Financial Statements.
Key Audit Matters
4. Key audit matters are those matters that, in my professional judgment, were of most significance in my audit of the Financial Statements of the current year. These matters were addressed in the context of my audit of the Financial Statements as a whole, and in forming my opinion thereon, and I do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
a) Investment Loss
During the year company has written off its investment worth Rs. 70,00,045/- made in ENERGY PRODUCTS (INDIA) LIMITED. Company has purchased equity shares of ENERGY PRODUCTS (INDIA) LIMITED from S. J. Infratech Private Limited in the month of July 2024. The consideration was discharged by way of an adjustment against liability of company worth Rs. 46,28,656 due to S. J. Infratech Private Limited and payment though banking channel of Rs. 23,85,000/- the balance amount remains outstanding. The management has is of the opinion that as company is unable to realise any amount from its investment in ENERGY PRODUCTS (INDIA) LIMITED, it has no realisable value. Thus, it has written off this loss as extra-ordinary item. This transaction has direct impact on financial statement of the company and thus it is considered as key audit matter.
Auditor's Response:
Audit procedure in this regard included and were not limited to following:
a) Obtain supportive evidence from management with regards to investment decision and written confirmation from transferee about dischargement of liability.
b) Obtain supportive evidence from management with regards to their assumption of nil realisation from investment.
Please refer notes to standalone financial statement.
b) Loss of Land Investment
During the year company has written off its land worth Rs. 20,25,050/-. The title of the said land is disputed and matter is pending before judicial Authority and management is of the opinion that there is less probability of decision in favour of company. Thus, it has no realisable value. Management has written off loss to make financial statement fair and true. This transaction has direct impact on financial statement of the company and thus it is considered as key audit matter Auditor's Response:
Audit procedure in this regard included and were not limited to following:
a) Obtain supportive evidence from management with regards title deed of document, pending litigation and justification for this decision.
b) Obtain expert opinion to justify the management decision.
Please refer notes to standalone financial statement Other Information
5. The Company's Board of Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Company's annual report, but does not include the Financial Statements and my auditors' report thereon.
6. My opinion on the Financial Statements does not cover the other information and I do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
7. In connection with my audit of the Financial Statements, my responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the Financial Statements or my knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work I have performed, I conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information; I am required to report that fact. I have nothing to report in this regard.
Management's responsibility for the Financial Statements
8. The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act, with respect to the preparation of these Financial Statements that give a true and fair view of the state of affairs, profit and other comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Indian accounting standards ("Ind AS”) specified under section 133 of the Act. 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.
9. In preparing the Financial Statements, the management is responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
10. The Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.
Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Statements
11. My objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Financial Statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes my opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered
material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these Financial Statements.
12. As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, I exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. I also:
12.1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Financial Statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
12.2. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) the Act, I am also responsible for expressing my opinion on whether the Company has adequate internal financial controls with reference to Financial Statements in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.
12.3. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by themanagement.
12.4. Conclude on the appropriateness of the management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If I conclude that a material uncertainty exists, I am required to draw attention in my auditor's report to the related disclosures in the Financial Statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify my opinion. Company has booked loss from extra ordinary items worth rupee 90.25 lakhs. This has resulted into Erison of entire capital. Further company has discontinued business operation during current year. The accumulated losses exceeds its paid up capital and free reserves and which results into negative net worth of company. The paid-up capital of the company as on 31st March, 2024 was Rs. 4,92,35,750/- and security premium balance was Rs. 5,69,43,000/- against which the accumulated losses were Rs. 10,67,58,585/-. This resulted into negative net worth of Rs. 5,79,835/-. Further there is no business activity during the year under consideration. Thus, on the basis of both operational and financial parameters, there exits significant doubt on ability of entity to continue as going concern. The management has proposed capital reduction scheme in this regard. The same has been approved by the directors in their meeting dated February 26,2024. Since this is the first year after Erison of capital and considering the steps taken by management to overcome with the situation. I am of the opinion that for the current reporting year company is justified in their assessment of its ability to continue as going concern. My conclusions are based on the audit evidence
obtained up to the date of my auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
12.5. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the Financial Statements, including the disclosures, and whether the Financial Statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
13. I communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that I identify during my audit.
14. I also provide those charged with governance with a statement that I have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on my independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
15. From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, I determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the Financial Statements of the current year and are therefore the key audit matters. I describe these matters in my auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances,
I determine that a matter should not be communicated in my report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
