We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Birla TranAsia Carpets Limited ("the Company"), which comprises the Balance Sheet as at 31st March 2015, the Statement of Profit and Loss and Cash Flow Statement for the year ended and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Managements Responsibility for the financial statements

The Companys Board of Directors is responsible for the matters in section 134(5) of the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act") with respect to the preparation of these financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance and cash flow 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 the maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provision of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting the 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 internal financial control, 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.

Auditors Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these 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 auditors 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 Companys preparation of the financial statements that give true and fair view 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 Companys 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 financial statements.

Basis of Qualified Opinion

1. Attention is invited to Note 6 on Long Term Provisions. Accounting Standard (AS) 15 - Employee Benefits (Revised 2005) requires the provisioning of retirement benefits based on actuarial valuation of retirement benefits and additional disclosures as required in terms of AS-15. The management has made the provisions based on their own estimates.

2. Note No. 5 and 7 of Notes to Financial Statements with regard to non-provision of interest on Inter Corporate Loans, (amount unascertained) and PICUP loans (amounting to Rs 2,67,34,127/- up to 31st March, 2013 and interest amount uncertain from 1st April 2013 to 31st March 2015) resulting into understatement of loss for the year. Similarly non-accounting of interest liability resulting in to understatement of current liabilities as on 31-03-2015 to the same extent.

3. Sundry Debtors/Creditors, unsecured loan and advances have been considered as good for recovery/payable by the management. Also are subject to confirmation and reconciliation. A detailed analysis of actual recoverability/payable which is overdue according to normal operating cycle of the company should be quantified and necessary provision need to be made. The non creation of provision for debts and interest are resulted into under/over statement of balances and loss. (Also Refer Notes on 5, 7, 8, 9, 11, 14, 16 and 28 to Financial Statements).

4. No provision has been made for contingent liabilities as defined under AS 29 are summarized in Note No. 25 to Notes to Financial Statements.

Qualified Opinion

In our opinion and to the best of our knowledge and according to the information and explanations given to us, except for the effects of the matters described in paragraphs 1 to 4 of the Basis for Qualified Opinion paragraph, the said financial statements give the information required by the Act in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India.

a. In the case of the Balance Sheet, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2015,

b. In the case of Statement of Profit and Loss, of the loss for the year ended on that date and

c. In the case of Cash Flow statement, of the cash flows for the year ended on that date

Emphasis of Matter:

Attention is invited to regarding the financial statements being prepared on a going concern basis, notwithstanding the fact that the Companys net worth is eroded. Net worth as at March 31, 2015 is negative Rs.39,89,08,950. The company has referred to BIFR on 04/11/1991. Although the final order has not been passed by the BIFR and it is pending since long. The latest communication was dated 21/11/2013. These facts cast a significant doubt on the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern as rescheduling of debt, Loans, other liabilities and resuming normal operations. Our opinion is not modified in this respect.
