Integrated Finance Company Ltd.की ऑडीटर रिपोर्ट

Mar 31, 2012

We have audited the attached Balance Sheet of M/s. Integrated Finance Company Limited, as at 31st March 2012 and the Profit and Loss Account for the year ended on that date annexed thereto. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company''s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in India. Those Standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

As required by the Companies (Auditor''s Report) Order, 2003, as amended by the Companies (Auditor''s Report) (Amendment) Order, 2004 issued by the Central Government of India in terms of sub-section (4A) of Section 227 of the Companies Act, 1956, we enclose in the Annexure a statement on the matters specified in paragraphs 4 and 5 of the said Order.

Further to our comments in the Annexure referred to above, we report that:

(i) We have obtained all the information and explanations, which to the best of our knowledge and belief were necessary for the purposes of our audit;

(ii) In our opinion, proper books of account as required by law have been kept by the company so far as appears from our examination of those books

(iii) The Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Account dealt with by this report are in agreement with the books of account

(iv) In our opinion, the Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Account dealt with by this report comply with the accounting standards referred to in sub-section (3C) of section 211 of the Companies Act, 1956.

(v) On the basis of written representations received from the directors, as on 31st March, 2011, and taken on record by the Board of Directors, we report that none of the directors is disqualified as on 31st March, 2012 from being appointed as a director in terms of clause (g) of sub-section (1) of section 274 of the Companies Act, 1956;

(vi) a) The net worth of the company is completely eroded and restrictions are placed by RBI on accepting further deposits which seriously hampers the ability of the company to carry on its designated business activities as NBFC. In the meanwhile the company filed a scheme of restructuring U/s 391 to 394 of Companies Act, 1956 on 1.06.2005 which was approved by the Hon''ble High Court, Madras on 19.08.2006 vide order of Single Judge Bench, which on an appeal the division bench of Madras High court has decided the proposed restructuring against the company, in respect of which the company the approached Supreme Court through a Special Leave Petition (SLP) and the same has been admitted by the Hon''ble Supreme Court pending the outcome of the same (despite huge accumulated losses accumulated by the company) the financial statements have been prepared as that on a going concern basis. In the event, the outcome of the ongoing proceedings are going to be against the company the same will impair the very going concern assumption of the company, and would place serious limitations on the company''s eventual liability to meet its obligation to secured/ unsecured lenders/ depositors. On view of the above we are unable to express our view whether the company is a going concern or not, consequently we are unable to express our opinion whether the financial statements give a true and fair view of the affairs of the company.

b) 1) Interest to banks has been provided at the contracted rates on the sanctioned limits, which is different from the actual out standings to the respective banks. The claims of the bank towards all penal levies not quantified.

2) The company has not provided interest on fixed deposits and non-convertible secured bonds after 19th May 2005 (effective date under scheme U/s 391 of Companies Act, 1956) for the financial year amounting to Rs. 158.52 lakhs on the un-matured bonds cumulative 5076.25 lakhs, consequently the loss for the year has been understated by Rs. 158.52 lakhs consequently the carried forward profit and loss account balance is also understated by Rs. 5076.25 lakhs. The interests on matured bonds and matured fixed deposits have not been provided for and the amount is not quantified.

3) During the previous year ending March 31, 2011 the government of Pondicherry had acquired a property of company under compulsory acquisition of land for a compensation of Rs. 2.18 Crores, for which the company had filed the writ petition before the High Court of Madras seeking the quashing of the acquisition. Pending the outcome the Company had not recorded and taken cognizance of the transaction in the books of accounts, and consequently in the financial statements also. Had the company accounted for the transaction, the loss for the financial year would have been lower by Rs 1.96 crores and the accumulated Profit and loss account debit balance would be lower by 1.96 Crores with a reduction in carrying value of assets to the extent of Rs. 32 Lakhs.

4) The company ceased to be a deposit accepting NBFC and further also discounted its primary objective as NBFC (other than collecting dues from its debtors or payment of dues to lenders/ depositors) many of the provisions pertaining to NBFC have not been complied with.

5) An amount of Rs. 67.5 lakhs being the balance in the current account of a scheduled bank has been adjusted by the bank as a preference dividend due by the company (notwithstanding that no dividend is declared by the company), in respect of which we are unable to express our opinion on recoverability of said amount from the bank.

6) Cash and bank balances include an amount of Rs.7,88,967 being the balance with a bank which has not been reconciled due to non availability of statements and confirmation. We are unable to form an opinion to that extent.

7) In our view the investments of the company in the form of long term investments including investments in subsidiaries have been affected by permanent diminution in carrying value held by the company thus such diminution warrants a provision to the extent of Rs. 828.11 lakhs. Had this amount being provided the loss for the year would have been higher by Rs. 828.11 lakhs and the debit balance in profit and loss account would have been higher by Rs. 828.11 lakhs.

8) In view various qualifications and disclaimers in our report as mentioned above, our report cannot be taken as any assurance for future performance of the company in meeting any of its obligations towards secured/ unsecured lenders or depositors.

(vii) Subject to the above, in our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, and especially in view of our comments in Para (iv)(a) above, the said accounts does not give the information required by the Companies Act, 1956, in the manner so required and does not 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 31st March, 2012; and

We have audited the attached Balance Sheet of M/s. Integrated Finance Company limited, as at 31st March 2010 and also the Profit and Loss Account and the cash flow statement for the year ended on that date annexed thereto. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in India. Those Standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

As required by the Companies (Auditors Report) Order, 2003, as amended by the Companies (Auditors Report) (Amendment) Order, 2004 issued by the Central Government of India in terms of sub-section (4A) of Section 227 of the Companies Act, 1956, we enclose in the Annexure a statement on the matters specified in paragraphs 4 and 5 of the said Order.

Further to our comments in the Annexure referred to above, we report that:

(i) We have obtained all the information and explanations, which to the best of our knowledge and belief were necessary for the purposes of our audit;

(ii) In our opinion, proper books of account as required by law have been kept by the company so far as appears from our examination of those books

(iii) The Balance Sheet, Profit and Loss Account and cash flow statement dealt with by this report are in agreement with the books of account

(iv) On the basis of written representations received from the directors, as on 31st March, 2009, and taken on record by the Board of Directors, we report that none of the directors is disqualified as on 31st March, 2009 from being appointed as a director in terms of clause (g) of sub-section (1) of section 274 of the Companies Act, 1956; (v) In our opinion, the Balance Sheet, Profit and Loss Account and cash flow statement dealt with by this report comply with the accounting standards referred to in sub-section {3C) of section 211 of the Companies Act, 1956, except as for the accrual of interest on fixed deposits and non-convertible bonds after 19th May 2005. (vi) a) The net worth of the company is completely eroded and restrictions are placed by RBI on accepting further deposits which seriously hampers the ability of the company to carry on its designated business activities as NBFC. In the meanwhile the Company has filed a restructuring proposal for meeting the liability towards deposits and Bonds under section 391 of the Companies Act 1956 on 21.06.2005 which was approved by the Honble High Court, Madras on 19.08.2006 vide order of Single Judge Bench, which on an appeal the division bench of Madras High Court decided the proposal for restructuring against the company, in respect of which the company appealed to supreme court through a Special Leave Petition (SLP) and the same has been admitted by the Honorable Supreme Court pending the outcome of the same (despite huge accumulated losses incurred by the company) the financial statements have been prepared as that on a going concern basis. In the event, the out come of the on going proceedings are going to be against the company the same will impair the going concern assumption of the company, and would place serious limitations on the companys eventual ability to meet its obligation to secured / unsecured lenders / depositors. In view of the above we are unable to express our view whether the company is a going concern or not.

b) 1) Interest to banks has been provided at the contracted rates on the sanctioned limits, which is different from the actual out standings to the respective banks. The claims of the banks towards all penal levies and other claims have not been provided amount not quantified.

c) Cash and bank balances, which includes, amount set aside is meet the SLR requirements of the Company, have been appropriated by the Bank, towards their dues, however, the Company contested the matter and pending before RBI, for direction, pending to out come from RBI, the balance with the banks were retained as per books of the Company, without taking cognizance of the appropriation by banks of stated above, consequently the assets are overvalued by Rs. 359.50 Lakhs.

(vii) Subject to above and based on the matters mentioned Note No. 10 (D) regarding the security for secured loans, in our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the said accounts give the information required by the Companies Act, 1956, in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India:
