GE Power India Ltd.की ऑडीटर रिपोर्ट

Mar 31, 2025

We have audited the accompanying standalone financial
statements of GE Power India Limited (the "Company”), which
comprise the Balance Sheet as at 31st March 2025, and the
Statement of Profit and Loss (including Other Comprehensive
Loss), the Statement of Cash Flows and the Statement of
Changes in Equity for the year ended on that date, and notes
to the financial statements, including a summary of material
accounting policies and other explanatory information.

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according
to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid standalone
financial statements give the information required by the
Companies Act, 2013 (the "Act”) in the manner so required
and give a true and fair view in conformity with the Indian
Accounting Standards prescribed under section 133 of the
Act, ("Ind AS”) and other accounting principles generally
accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at
31st March 2025, and its profit, total comprehensive income,
its cash flows and the changes in equity for the year ended
on that date.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit of the standalone financial statements
in accordance with the Standards on Auditing ("SA"s)
specified under section 143(10) of the Act. Our responsibilities
under those Standards are further described in the Auditor''s
Responsibility for the Audit of the Standalone Financial
Statements section of our report. We are 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
our audit of the standalone financial statements under the
provisions of the Act and the Rules made thereunder, and we

have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance
with these requirements and the ICAI''s Code of Ethics. We
believe that the audit evidence obtained by us is sufficient
and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the
standalone financial statements.

Emphasis of Matter

i. Attention is drawn to Notes 47(i) of the Standalone
Financial Statements, which explains the accounting
treatment for the Slump Sale of the Gas business
undertaking (''Undertaking'') with a carrying value its net
liability of ? 144.8 million to a fellow subsidiary effective
from 30 September 2024. This transaction has resulted
in a gain of ? 583.4 million, which has been recognized in
the Statement of Profit and Loss as an Exceptional Item
for the year ended 31st March 2025.

ii. Attention is drawn to Note 47(ii) of the Standalone
Financial Statements, which explains the accounting
treatment for the Slump Sale of the Hydro business
undertaking (''Undertaking'') to a fellow subsidiary based
on the approval of the Board of Directors of the Company
and its shareholder as the transaction price was higher
than fair value. As explained in the said note, the gain
of ? 2,369.8 million on disposal of the Undertaking has
been credited to the Statement of Profit and Loss as an
Exceptional Item for the year ended 31st March 2025.

Our opinion is not modified in respect of the above matters.

Key Audit Matters

judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the
standalone financial statements of the current period. These
matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the
standalone financial statements as a whole, and in forming
our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion
on these matters. We have determined the matters described

our report.

Information Other than the Financial Statements and
Auditor''s Report Thereon

• The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for
the other information. The other information comprises
the information included in the Director''s report, but
does not include the consolidated financial statements,
standalone financial statements and our auditor''s report
thereon. The Director report is expected to be made
available to us after the date of auditor''s report.

• Our opinion on the standalone financial statements does
not cover the other information and will not express any
form of assurance conclusion thereon.

• In connection with our audit of the standalone
financial statements, our responsibility is to read the
other information identified above when it becomes
available and, in doing so, consider whether the other
information is materially inconsistent with the standalone
financial statements or our knowledge obtained during
the course of our audit or otherwise appears to be
materially misstated.

Responsibilities of Management and Board of
Directors for the Standalone Financial Statements

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 standalone financial statements that
give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial

performance including other comprehensive loss, cash
flows and changes in equity of the Company in accordance
with the accounting principles generally accepted in India,
including 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 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.

In preparing the standalone financial statements, management
and Board of Directors are 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 Board of
Directors either intend to liquidate the Company or to cease
operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

The Company''s Board of Directors is also responsible for
overseeing the Company''s financial reporting process.

Auditor''s Responsibility for the Audit of the
Standalone Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the standalone 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 standalone
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 material misstatement
of the standalone 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.

• Obtain an understanding of internal financial controls
relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures
that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under
section 143(3)(i) of the Act, we are also responsible
for expressing our opinion on whether the Company
has adequate internal financial controls with reference
to standalone financial statements in place and the
operating effectiveness of such controls.

• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies
used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates
and related disclosures made by the management.

• Conclude on the appropriateness of 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 we conclude that a
material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw
attention in our auditor''s report to the related disclosures
in the standalone 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 auditor''s 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 standalone financial statements, including the
disclosures, and whether the standalone financial
statements represent the underlying transactions and
events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

• Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding
the financial information of the Company to express an
opinion on the standalone financial statements.

Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the
standalone financial statements that, individually or in
aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of
a reasonably knowledgeable user of the standalone financial
statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative
materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of
our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and
(ii) to evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in
the standalone financial statements.

We 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 financial controls that
we identify during our audit.

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 standalone financial statements
of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters.
We describe these matters in our auditor''s 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.

1. As required by Section 143(3) of the Act, based on our
audit we report that:

REPORT ON THE AUDIT OF THE STANDALONE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

We have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements of GE Power India Limited ("the Company”), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2024, and the Statement of Profit and Loss (including Other Comprehensive Income), the Statement of Cash Flows and the Statement of Changes in Equity for the year ended on that date, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of material accounting policies and other explanatory information.

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid standalone financial statements give the information required by the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act”) in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the Indian Accounting Standards prescribed under section 133 of the Act, ("Ind AS”) and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2024, and its loss, total comprehensive loss, its cash flows and the changes in equity for the year ended on that date.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit of the standalone financial statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing ("SAs”) specified under section 143(10) of the Act. Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor''s Responsibility for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements section of our report.

We believe that the audit evidence obtained by us is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the standalone financial statements.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the standalone financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the standalone financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

prices are fixed/subject to price variance clauses. Revenue from these contracts is recognized in accordance with accounting policies detailed in "significant accounting policies” in the standalone financial statements.

There are judgements and estimates involved in accounting for revenue recognized on "Over the Time” basis w.r.t:

a. Total estimated cost at inception; and

b. Total estimated cost to complete at each reporting date to determine the appropriate percentage of completion.

We considered the estimation of cost to complete as a key audit matter given the involvement of significant management judgement which has consequential impact on revenue recognition.

In the view of above, we determined this area to be an area involving significant risk and an area of audit focus, and accordingly, a key audit matter.

b)

For selected contracts tested the following:

i. Obtained the percentage of completion calculations, agreed key contractual terms to signed contracts, tested the mathematical accuracy of the cost to complete calculations and re-performed the calculation of revenue recognized during the year based on the percentage of completion;

ii. Identified and evaluated the key assumptions used in estimation of cost to complete;

iii. Obtained the breakdown of the total estimated costs to complete for contracts in progress during the year and compared with the actual costs incurred and estimates of cost to be incurred at the reporting date; and

iv. In respect of contracts with significant changes in margins during the year, read the "Project Management Review” documents (as evidence of project reviews), wherever available. Discussed with the project controllers; the reasons for such changes in revenues/costs.

REPORT ON THE AUDIT OF THE STANDALONE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Opinion

We have audited the standalone financial statements of GE Power India Limited (“the Company”), which comprise the standalone balance sheet as at 31 March 2019, the standalone statement of profit and loss (including other comprehensive income), standalone statement of changes in equity and standalone statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the standalone financial statements, including a summary of the significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid standalone financial statements give the information required by the Companies Act, 2013 (“Act”) in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at 31 March 2019, and profit and other comprehensive income, changes in equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under section 143(10) of the Act. Our responsibilities under those SAs are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the standalone financial statements under the provisions of the Act and the Rules thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the standalone financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the standalone financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Description of Key Audit Matter

The key audit matter

How the matter was addressed in our audit

Revenue and margin recognition

The Company conducts a significant portion of its business under long-term projects, including construction-type, fixed price projects.

Revenue from long-term construction contracts is recognized in accordance with Ind AS 115, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, based on the extent of progress towards completion. The revenue on contracts may also include variations and claims. Variations and claims are recognised on a contract-by-contract basis when the Company’s negotiations have reached a stage such that it is probable that the customer will accept the claim and the amount can be measured reliably.

Our procedures included the following:

A. We obtained an understanding of the Company’s internally established methods, processes and control mechanisms for project management in the bid and execution phase of construction contracts. We also assessed the design and operating effectiveness of the accounting related internal controls by obtaining an understanding of business transactions specific to construction contracts, from the initiation of the transaction through presentation in the standalone financial statements, and testing controls over these processes.

B. We evaluated management’s estimates and assumptions based on a risk-based selection of a sample of contracts. Our sample particularly included projects that are subject to significant future uncertainties and risks, such as projects with a large portion of materials and services to be provided by suppliers, subcontractors or consortium partners, cross-border projects, and projects with changes in cost estimates, delays and / or low or negative margins. For the selected contract samples, we performed the following:

We consider the accounting for construction contracts

i.

Review of the contracts and their terms and conditions including

to be an area posing a significant risk of material

contractually agreed deliveries and services, termination rights, penalties

misstatement (including the potential risk of management

for delay and breach of contract as well as liquidated damages. In order to

override of internal controls) and accordingly a key audit

evaluate whether revenues were recognized on an accrual basis for the

matter, because management’s assessments significantly

selected projects, we analyzed revenues and corresponding cost of sales

impact the determination of the extent of progress

to be recognized in the statement of profit and loss in the reporting period

towards completion. These assessments include, in

considering the extent of progress towards completion, and examined the

particular, the scope of deliveries and services required

accounting for the associated items in the balance sheet.

to fulfill contractually defined obligations, total estimated contract costs, remaining costs to completion and total estimated contract revenues, as well as contract risks including technical, political, regulatory and legal risks.

ii.

Discussion with the management including challenging the key estimates and assumptions adopted in the forecast of contract revenue and contract

costs, including estimated costs to completion, the recognition of variation orders, the adequacy of contingency provisions and the assessment of

Revenues, total estimated contract costs and contract

potential liquidated and ascertained damages for contracts which were

margins may deviate significantly from original estimates

behind schedule, by obtaining and assessing information in connection

based on new knowledge about cost overruns and

with the assumptions adopted, including contract agreements and sub-.

changes in project scope over the term of a construction

contracts, correspondence with customers regarding contract variations

contract. Furthermore, the first time application of Ind AS

and claims and by considering historical outcomes for similar contracts.

115 in the year ended 31 March 2019 was of relevance for our audit as it required the Company-wide assessment of contracts in relation to the new accounting criteria.

iii.

Obtained detailed breakdown of the total estimated costs to completion and compared to actual costs incurred at the reporting date and cost

estimates with agreements with subcontractors and suppliers and other documentation referred to by management in its assessment of the estimated costs to completion;

iv.

We further performed inquiries of project management (both commercial and technical project managers) with respect to the development of the projects, the reasons for deviations between planned and actual costs, the current estimated costs to complete the projects, and management’s assessments on probabilities that contract risks will materialize. We also obtained an understanding of the stage of completion of the project through inquiries with project managers and by participating in project review meetings. In designing our audit procedures, we also considered results from project audits conducted by the internal audit function.

v.

Challenged the assumptions and critical judgements made by management which impacted their estimations of the liquidated and ascertained damages assessments by comparing the key terms and conditions in the assessments with customers and by comparing the estimated contract completion time with the Company’s updated progress report or correspondence from customers;

vi.

Inquired into the reasons for significant variation in current cost and revenue estimates when compared with prior estimates to assess the reliability of the management’s process of preparing such estimates.

vii. As a response to the risk of fraud in revenue recognition on long-term

projects, we tested on a sample basis the accuracy of the revenue

recorded, based on inspection of externally available evidence, such as

project acceptance documentation, contractual terms and conditions and

customer correspondence. We assessed the consistency of the accounting

information with the project information obtained.

C. Considering the requirements of Ind AS 115, we also assessed the accounting for contract amendments. With respect to the first-time application of Ind AS 115, we obtained an understanding of the processes implemented in response to the new standard. We also appraised the disclosures on the effects of the first-time application of Ind AS 115 in the notes to the standalone financial statements.

Uncertain tax provisions and deferred taxes

The Company has material uncertain tax positions including matters under dispute which involve significant judgment to determine the possible outcome of these disputes.

This also affects the measurement and completeness of uncertain tax positions, the recoverability of deferred tax assets as well as the measurement and completeness of deferred tax liabilities.

Accruals for tax contingencies require the management to make judgements and estimates in relation to tax issues and exposures. This is a key audit risk due to the time taken for tax matters to be agreed with the tax authorities and complexity of tax legislation.

Our procedures included the following:

- We used our tax specialists to assist us in assessing the Company’s open tax positions. Our specialists also considered legal precedence and other rulings in evaluating management’s position on these uncertain tax positions. Additionally, we considered the effect of new information in respect of uncertain tax positions to evaluate whether any change was required to management’s position on these uncertainties.

- We analysed and challenged the assumptions used to determine tax accruals (including allowances/ disallowances and their consequential impact on deferred taxes) based on our knowledge and experiences of the application of local legislation by the relevant authorities and courts.

- We assessed the adequacy of the Company’s disclosures in respect of tax and uncertain tax positions by reference to the relevant accounting standards and statute.

Assets held for sale

The Company announced its intention to dispose off its assets held at Shahabad and Vadodara location. The Company does not yet have an active buyer for its assets located at Vadodara. The management is actively looking for buyer and remains committed to the plan to dispose off the assets and thereby, continues to classify the same as Assets held for sale.

Management’s assessment of the basis for classification of the assets as non-current assets held for sale is judgemental, as the sale has to be considered highly probable and is expected to be completed within one year in accordance with Ind AS 105 “Non-current Assets Held For Sale and Discontinued Operations”.

At the same time, management is required to measure the assets at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Inaccurate management’s estimates made in the fair value less costs to sell could result in a significant impact on the value of the assets recorded at the end of the reporting period and the impairment loss in the statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income for the year ended 31 March 2019.

Our procedures included the following:

- We challenged management’s basis for the continued classification of the assets as held for sale through understanding of the status of the sale process and obtained necessary documentary support, including the correspondences with prospective buyers;

- Involved our valuation specialists in assessing the appropriateness and reasonableness of the value assessed.

- We reviewed management’s assessment of the valuation of the non-current assets held for sale and assessed the reasonableness of the carrying value of the underlying assets.

- We also assessed and validated the adequacy of the Company’s disclosures by reference to the relevant accounting standards and statute.

Other information

The Company’s management and 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 our auditor’s report thereon.

Our opinion on the standalone financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the standalone financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the standalone financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

MANAGEMENT’S RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE STANDALONE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Company’s management and Board of Directors are responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act with respect to the preparation of these standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view of the state of affairs, profit/loss 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 standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the standalone financial statements, management and Board of Directors are 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 management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Board of Directors is also responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.

AUDITOR’S RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE AUDIT OF THE STANDALONE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the standalone 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 standalone 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 material misstatement of the standalone 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.

- 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) of the Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the company has adequate internal financial controls with reference to financial statements in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.

- Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

- Conclude on the appropriateness of 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 we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the standalone 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 auditor’s 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 standalone financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the standalone financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

We 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 we identify during our audit.

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 standalone financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s 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.

ANNEXUREB TO THE INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

ON THE STANDALONE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF GE POWER INDIA LIMITED FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2019.

Report on the Internal Financial controls with reference to the aforesaid standalone financial statements under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013

(Referred to in paragraph (2A(f)) under ‘Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements’ section of our report of even date) OPINION

We have audited the internal financial controls with reference to financial statements of GE Power India Limited (“the Company”) as of 31 March 2019 in conjunction with our audit of the standalone financial statements of the Company for the year ended on that date.

In our opinion, the Company has, in all material respects, adequate internal financial controls with reference to financial statements and such internal financial controls were operating effectively as at 31 March 2019, based on the internal financial controls with reference to financial statements criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (the “Guidance Note”).

MANAGEMENT’S RESPONSIBILITY FOR INTERNAL FINANCIAL CONTROLS

The Company’s management and the Board of Directors are responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal financial controls with reference to financial statements criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note. These responsibilities include the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to company’s policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Companies Act, 2013 (hereinafter referred to as “the Act”).

AUDITORS’ RESPONSIBILITY

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company''s internal financial controls with reference to financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note and the Standards on Auditing, prescribed under section 143(10) of the Act, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls with reference to financial statements. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls with reference to financial statements were established and maintained and whether such controls operated effectively in all material respects.

Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls with reference to financial statements and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls with reference to financial statements included obtaining an understanding of such internal financial controls, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the standalone financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Company’s internal financial controls with reference to financial statements.

MEANING OF INTERNAL FINANCIAL CONTROLS WITH REFERENCE TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

A company''s internal financial controls with reference to financial statements is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company''s internal financial controls with reference to financial statements include those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorisations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorised acquisition, use, or disposition of the company''s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

INHERENT LIMITATIONS OF INTERNAL FINANCIAL CONTROLS WITH REFERENCE TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls with reference to financial statements, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls with reference to financial statements to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial controls with reference to financial statements may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Report on the Internal Financial Controls under Clause (i) of sub-section 3 of section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act")

We have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting of ALSTOM India Limited ("the Company”) as of March 31, 2016 in conjunction with our audit of the standalone financial statements of the Company for the year ended on that date.

Management''s Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls

The Company''s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. These responsibilities include the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to company''s policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Companies Act, 2013.

Auditors ‘Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company''s internal financial controls over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting (the "Guidance Note”) and the Standards on Auditing, issued by ICAI and deemed to be prescribed under section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls, both applicable to an audit of Internal Financial Controls and, both issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting was established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.

Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system over financial reporting and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. 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.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Company''s internal financial controls system over financial reporting.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting

A company''s internal financial control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company''s internal financial control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company''s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting

Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control over financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Opinion

In our opinion, the Company has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system over financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as at March 31, 2016, based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.
