Report on the Financial StatementsWe have audited the accompanying
financial statements of THE INDIA SUGARS & REFINERIES LIMITED ("the
Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at September 30,2013,
and the Statement of Profit and Loss and Cash Flow Statement for the
year then ended ("financial statements"), and a summary of significant
accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Management''s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for 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 Standards notified under the Companies Act, 1956 ("the
Act") read with General Circular 15/2013 dated 13 September 2013 of the
Ministry of Corporate Affairs in respect of section 133 of the
Companies Act, 2013. This responsibility includes the design,
implementation and maintenance of internal control 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 conducted our audit in accordance
with the Standards on Auditing issued by the Institute of Chartered
Accountants of India. 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 auditor''s 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 control relevant to the Company''s preparation and
fair presentation of the financial statements 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 management, 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.
Basis for Qualified Opinion
The company has considered a sum ofRs. 101.83 lakhs representing Sugar
Export subsidy claim receivable from Government ofKarnataka (GOK) as
doubtful following the rejection of the claim by GOK. But no provision
has been made by the Company in the attached financial statements on
the ground that legal steps are being initiated in this regard andBIFR
is also being approachedfor appropriate relief. Had management provided
for the claim mentioned above, the net loss would have increased by
Rs.101.83 lakhs and share holders'' fund would have reduced by Rs.101.83
lakhs.
Qualified Opinion
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the
explanations given to us, except for the effect of the matter described
in the Basis for qualified opinion paragraph, the 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 September 30,2013;
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 the Cash Flow Statement, of the cash flows for the
year ended on that date.
Emphasis of Matter
We draw attention to the following Notes to the Financial Statements
(i) Note 28.6 regarding adoption of Going Concern assumption in
preparation of financial statements (ii) Note 28.5 regarding provision
of interest to banks on an estimated basis and (iii) Note 28.7(e)
regarding claim from Government of Karnataka aggregating Rs.150.94
lakhs being regarded as Contingent liability.
