Limited ("the Company"), which comprises the Balance Sheet as at June

for the year then ended and a summary of significant accounting policies
and other explanatory information.
2. Management''s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position and
financial performance of the Company in accordance with the Accounting
Standards referred to in sub-section (3C) of section 211 of the

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.
3. Auditor''s 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. Te 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.
4. Basis of Qualified Opinion
Management has been unable to provide us with proper supporting
documentation for some material transactions selected for audit. We
were unable to satisfy ourselves by alternative means concerning some
of the items of Income/expenditures/assets/ liabilities as reported by
Te Company in the Financial Statements. As a result of this, we were
unable to determine whether any adjustments might have been found
necessary in respect of the Income/expenditures/assets/liabilities
making up the Statement. With respect to the above comment we would
like to bring to your kind attention the following points:-
i. We are unable to verify the correctness of the write off of
B15,924.48 lac reversed in respect of software licenses sold to the
customer''s as stated in Note no 33.
ii. We are unable to verify the correctness of the write back of
Rs. 43,700.54 lac, reversed in respect of software licenses returned to
the suppliers, as stated in Note no 33. Consequently the loss for the
year has been understated to that extent.
iii. During the year Company has not made the provision for Bad and
Doubtful debts, as stated in Note No. 34, as per the policy against the
amount shown as Trade Receivable amounting to Rs.36,745.50 lac.
iv. In the absence confirmations from any of the third parties(including
Company''s foreign subsidiary) in respect of correctness of amount due
from/to the Company, including debtors, creditors, trade advances,
other liabilities etc. we are unable state correctness thereof.
v. During the year Te Company has defaulted in repayment of Loans/dues
to the financial institutions to the tune of Rs. 8,005.29 lac. Some of
the financial Institutions have fled winding up petitions against the
Company. Te litigation is still pending and we are informed in a few
cases the Company has made a counter claim against the same. However,
the ultimate impact is presently unascertainable as stated in note no.
35 of notes to accounts.
vi. Te Company has raised fund through FCCB during the year 2008, the
same was due for repayment in the month of January,2013. Till date the
Company has not been able to discharge this liability. Te foreign
currency convertible bond (FCCB) holders have, through their Trustees,
fled a winding up petition against the Company for defaulting on the
dues. Te London branch of City Bank is a trustee in the case where it
has approached the court to recover its dues from the Company on behalf
of bondholders. We are unable to ascertain financial impact thereof.
vii. No provision has been made for depletion in the value of Company''s
investment to the extent of Rs. 6,161.32 lac in GTSL, due to losses
incurred during the year as stated in note no.37.
viii. During the year all the independent directors have resigned from
the post of directorship. As on the date of financials the company has
not complied with the conditions as mentioned in clause
49.Non-compliance with the provisions of corporate governance in clause
49 would invite penalties such as fine, suspension of trading and
delisting from the stock exchange.
5. Qualified Opinion
Because of the significance of the matters described in the Basis for
Qualified Opinion paragraph, we have not been able to obtain sufficient
appropriate audit evidence to provide a basis for an audit opinion.

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.
6. Paucity of working capital on account of legal issues with financial
institutions and winding up proceeding fled by a few of the FIs has
created uncertainty of the continuity of operations. However, based on
the counterclaims lodged by the Company on these FIs, based on the
discussions with alternate lenders, and based on the orders for
Company''s products under finalization, the management is confident of
reviving fully and as such the financial statements have been made as a
Going Concern.
