In absence of any clear audit evidence regarding existence of right to receive from debtor, liability to pay toward creditors and consent of parties for recorded settlement, I am unable to comment upon existence, reliability and accuracy of recorded transaction and future liabilities as far as payable accounts written off.

Comment: The Company, after making reasonable efforts to obtain confirmations from the concerned parties, did not receive any response and based on its assessment of the recoverability and liability position, considered it prudent to write off the aforementioned amounts. These adjustments were made in good faith to reflect a true and fair view of the financial position, and management believes that the entries are appropriate under the circumstances.

(ii) I have not been provided with clear classification of creditors such as creditor for expenses and creditor for goods with respect to registration as MSME entity. I am unable to comment upon compliances under MSMED Act. Thus in absence of clear audit evidence in this regard I am unable to determine the delay in making payment to MSME entities, liability of interest and compliance on such delayed payments in terms ofprovisions of MSMED Act, if any. Further there is Outstanding TDS Account for FY 2022-23 by amount of Rs. 24.33 Lacs which arise due to some adjustment entries passed in respective financial year and no clear documentary evidences or supporting documents available for our verification.
