Baroda Extrusion Limited
Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements Qualified Opinion
We have audited the accompanying Ind AS financial statements of Baroda Extrusion Limited ("the Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2024, the Statement of Profit and Loss (including Other Comprehensive Income), the Statement of Changes in Equity and the Statement of Cash Flows for the year then ended, and notes to the Ind AS financial statements including a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information (hereinafter referred to as Ind AS financial statements").
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, except for the possible effects of the matters described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion section of our report, the aforesaid Ind AS 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 accounting principles generally accepted in India including the Indian Accounting Standards ("Ind AS") prescribed under section 133 of the Act, read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, as amended, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2024, its loss (including other comprehensive income), its changes in equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.
(a) As stated in Note 29C(1) of the Ind AS Financial Statement, due to the various litigations and cross litigations between the Company and the Lender - SICOM Ltd (''SICOM''), the Company has not accounted for the unreconciled interest liability of Rs 84.99 Crores, for the past many years and for the year ended March 31, 2024, on outstanding dues payable to SICOM. There are no documentary calculations to support this amount. Also, there is no documentary evidence for Fixed Deposit with SICOM amounting to Rs 1.49 crores. No interest income has been booked on the same for past many years and for the year ended March 31, 2024.
(b) As stated in Note 29C(3) of the Ind AS Financial Statement, the Company has not de-recognized the Deferred Tax Assets (DTA) amounting to Rs. 512.43 Lakhs as appearing in its books of accounts as at March 31, 2024 for the reason stated in the Note 29C(2). Considering the losses incurred by the Company and since the net worth of the Company is eroded, there is no reasonable certainty that there will future taxable profit, such continuation of recognition of DTA has led to departure in terms of the requirements of Ind AS 12 ''Income Taxes''. Had the Company de-recognised the DTA as
at March 31, 2024, loss for the year ended March 31, 2024 would have been higher by Rs. 512.43 Lakhs.
We conducted our audit in accordance with Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under section 143(10) of the Act. Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor''s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Ind AS 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 Ind AS financial statements under the provisions of the Act and 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 qualified opinion on the Ind AS financial statements.
We draw attention to Note 29(C)(1) of the Ind AS Financial statement wherein Management has stated that The Lender M/s SICOM Limited has assigned its debt of Rs 130.37 Crores on the Company to M/s Brijlaxmi Leasing and Finance Limited on 25th April 2024.
Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
Material Uncertainty related to Going Concern
We draw attention to Note 29C(2) of the Ind AS Financial Statement, indicating the factors that have resulted into losses and the net worth of the Company is eroded. It seems that there is a material uncertainty which casts significant doubt about the Company''s ability to continue as a ''going concern'' in the foreseeable future. However, for the reasons stated in the said Note, the Co mpany is hopeful that it would be able to manage its business operations as usual in future and would be able to meet its financial commitments and is of the opinion that it is appropriate to prepare the Statement on a going concern basis.
Our Opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the Ind AS financial statements of the current year. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the Ind AS financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. Except for the matters described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion section and Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern section above, we have determined that there are no other key audit matters to communicate in our report.
The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Management Discussion and Analysis, Board''s Report including Annexures to Board''s Report, Corporate Governance and Shareholder''s Information, but does not include the IndAS financial statements and our auditor''s report thereon.
Our opinion on the IndAS 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 Ind AS financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the IndAS 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.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Ind AS 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 Ind AS financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance (including other comprehensive income), changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including Ind AS prescribed under section 133 of the Act, read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, as amended. 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 Ind AS financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the Ind AS financial statements, management is 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.
The Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Company''s financial reporting process.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Ind AS 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 this Ind AS 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 Ind AS 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 Ind AS 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 Ind AS financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the Ind AS 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 Ind AS financial statements of the current year 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.

We have audited the accompanying Ind AS financial statements of Baroda Extrusion Limited (âthe Companyâ), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2023, the Statement of Profit and Loss (including Other Comprehensive Income), the Statement of Changes in Equity and the Statement of Cash Flows for the year then ended, and notes to the Ind AS financial statements including a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information (hereinafter referred to as Ind AS financial statementsâ).
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, except for the possible effects of the matters described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion section of our report, the aforesaid Ind AS financial statements give the information required by the Companies Act, 2013 (âthe Actâ) in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India including the Indian Accounting Standards (âInd ASâ)prescribed under section 133 of the Act, read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, as amended, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2023, its loss(including other comprehensive income), its changes in equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.
Basis for Qualified Opinion
(a) As stated inNote 3 of the Financial Statement, due to the various litigations and cross litigations between the Company and the Lender- SICOM Ltd (âSICOMâ), the Company has not accounted for the interest liability, for the past many years and for the year ended March 31, 2023, on outstanding dues payable to SICOM. Further, as stated in the said Note, in view of the various demands raised by the Company and on the Company, the interest liability to be accounted for in the books of accounts is not ascertainable.
(b) As stated in Note 5 of the Financial Statement, the Company has not de-recognized the Deferred Tax Assets (DTA) amounting to Rs. 512.43 Lakhs as appearing in its books of accounts as at March 31, 2023 for the reason stated in the said note. Considering the losses incurred by the Company and since the net worth of the Company is eroded, there is no reasonable certainty that there will future taxable profit, such continuation of recognition of DTA has led to departure in terms of the requirements of Ind AS 12 âIncome Taxesâ. Had the Company de-recognised the DTA as at March 31, 2023, loss forthe year ended March 31, 2023 would have been higher by Rs. 512.43 Lakhs.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion on the Ind AS financial statements.

However, for the reasons stated in the said note, the Company is hopeful that it would be able to manage its business operations as usual in future and would be able to meet its financial commitments and is of the opinion that it is appropriate to prepare the Statement on a going concern basis.

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Baroda
Extrusions Limited ("the Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet as
at March 31, 2015, the Profit and Loss Statement, the Cash Flow
Statement for the year then ended and summary of significant accounting
policies and other explanatory information.
Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements
The management and Board of Directors of the Company are responsible
for the matters stated in the section 134(5) of the Companies Act, 2013
('the Act') with respect to 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 principles generally accepted in India including the
Accounting Standards specified. 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 are 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.
Auditors' Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audit.
We have taken into account the provisions of the Act, the accounting
and auditing standards and matters which are required to be included in
the audit report under the provisions of the Act and the Rules made
there under.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing
specified under Section 143(10) of the Act. 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 misstatements.
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 financial control relevant to the Company's
preparation of the financial statements, that give a true and fair view
in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the
circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on
