“1. With reference to Note No. 45 regarding the non-provision by the Company of the interest amounting to ` 2,551.72 lacs on

its working capital facilities from Banks during the year. Had this amount been provided for, the loss would have been higher by

` 2,551.72 lacs and Secured Loans would have been higher by an amount of ` 2551.72 lacs.

4. The Company has appointed a firm of Chartered Accountants for carrying out the internal audit functions. The internal audit

coverage has been done only at Tarapur unit and not at any of the other locations. In our opinion, the scope and coverage of

the audit require enhancement to make it commensurate with the size of the Company and nature of its business.”

Management Response for the year 2014

“1. As the Accounts have been categorised as “NPA” by the Banks, the bank does not accrue for interest for the period post

NPA. Accordingly, the Company has followed the same principle and hence, it has not provided for interest for the period post

NPA. However, the interest for the period post NPA has been shown as contingent liability.

2. The Company suffered heavy losses resulting in major financial crunch. Hence, the Company could not meet its commitment

on due date. The Company has sought for extension/ re-schedulement of repayments of deposits along with interest. However,

the provisions of Section 58A and 58AA or any other relevant provisions of the Act and the Companies (Acceptance of Deposits)

Rules, 1975, with regard to the deposits accepted from the public, we have to state that these have not been complied with in

respect to non-payments of deposits and interest on due date, maintenance of liquid assets to the extent required as per rule 3A

of the Companies (Acceptance of Deposit) Rules,1975 accepting fresh deposits after the default, as well as not intimating the

appropriate authorities of such defaults.

2. The Company has an in house internal audit system. To make it commensurate with the size and nature of its business, the

scope and coverage needs to be strengthened.

3. According to the records of the Company examined by us and the information and explanations given to us, there have been

instances of the Company not arranging funds for meeting its commitment to the banks for paying the liability of the Letters of

credit on due dates since August 12 resulting in default in payment to the banks from August 2012, and as on 31.03.2013 the

Company’s liability to the banks for the Letters of credit which have fallen due is to the tune of ` 8384.03 lacs. However, the

audit department could not take up the audit in all areas. However, the Company is appointing external agency as Internal

Auditor who will cover all areas.

3. The Company suffered heavily due to imposition of Anti-Dumping Duty by USA resulting in major financial crunch. Hence, the

Company could not meet its commitment on due date. Even though there has been over drawl in the cash credit account due to

non- payment of LCs on due dates but the Company had un-utilized LC limit to the same extent of such over drawn cash credit

limit such that the Company’s outstanding was within the total sanctioned limit of fund based and non- fund based taken
