Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Standalone Financial Statements
The Companys 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 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. This responsibility aiso 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 applipation inappropriate 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 materia! misstatement, whether due to fraud or error,
In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Companys ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Companys financial reporting process. Auditors Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our 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 our 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.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
* identify and assess the risks of materia! 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 our 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.
* Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
* Conclude on the appropriateness of managements 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 Companys ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern
* Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent tbs underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we 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 our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication. -
Emphasis of Matter Paragraph
a) We draw attention to the financial statements, which states that the Company has incurred significant losses during the year ended on March 31f 2025 and as at that date, its accumulated losses have resulted in erosion of its net worth.
The Companys current ratio is positive as on the reporting date, However excess non current liabilities and erosion of General reserve balance due to continuous losses from three financial years, value of Shareholders fund is currently negative.
In our opinion, Going Concern of the entity will not be affected due to this negative networth as, Current ratio is positive and Management has plans in foreseeable future to infuse funds from promoters by converting their existing unsecured loans into share capital.
Along with it Management has proposed Development of portion of Land owned by Company and sale thereof. We have obtained Management representation regarding the above future plans to address the issue of Negative networth.
Our report is not qualified due to this matter.
b) During Current reporting period, an Amount of Rs. 14,91,499/- is paid to Saraswat Co Operative Bank Ltd. Nature of Payment for this amount is Undisclosed. We have made reasonable efforts for verification of relevant documents from Company or Availing external confirmation from bank; However no prudent evidence has been made available by the management. Currently the amount is disclosed in Financial statements as part of Current Assets.
Due to non-availability of Sufficient and appropriate evidence in this regards, we hereby Modify the report only to the extent of above transaction or series of transactions.
Comparative analysis if such amount is considered as expenses will be as follows;
Particulars |
