Information Other than the Standalone Financial Statements
and Auditorâs Report Thereon
The Company''s management and Board of Directors are
responsible for the preparation of 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 Report etc. included in
Annual Report, but does not include the standalone financial
statements and our auditor''s report thereon.
Our opinion on the standalone 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 standalone financial statements,
our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so,
consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent
with the standalone financial statements or our knowledge obtained
during the course of our audit or otherwise appears to be materially
misstated. In connection with the information included in the Annual
report i.e. Directors Report, Management Discussion and Analysis,
Corporate Governance Report, 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 this fact. We have
nothing to report in this regard.
Managementâs Responsibility for the Standalone Financial
Statements
The accompanying standalone financial statements have been
approved by the Company''s Board of Directors. The Company''s
Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section
1 34(5) of the Act with respect to the preparation and presentation
of these standalone financial statements that give a true and fair
view of the financial position, financial performance including other
total comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of
the Company in accordance with the Ind AS specified under Section
133 of the Act and other accounting principles generally accepted
in India. 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 were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy
and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the
preparation and presentation of the standalone financial statements
that give a true and fair view and are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the standalone financial statements, the Board of
Directors 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 the Board of Directors 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.
Auditorâs Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone
Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the standalone 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 these standalone financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs specified under Section
143(10) of the Act, we exercise professional judgment and maintain
professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the
standalone 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 controls 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 the Board of Directors 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 standalone 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
standalone financial statements, including the disclosures, and
whether the standalone 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 standalone financial statements of the
current period 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.

143(3) of the Act based on our audit, we report, to the extent

1) Litigation Matters: [as described in note 32 of the financial statements] The company operates in various states within India, exposing it to a variety of different Central and State Laws, regulations and interpretations thereof. In this regulatory environment, there is an inherent risk of litigation and claims.

2) Revenue recognition from sale of products/ Royalty and Franchise agreements (Note no 21 of the standalone financial statements) Revenue from sale of products is recognised when control of products has been transferred to the customer and there is no unfulfilled obligation that could affect the customer''s acceptance of the products. Revenue from sale of products is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of returns and allowances, discounts and incentives. Revenue generated on account of Royalty as per commercial agreements is subject to waiver in respect of Minimum Guarantee Quantum based on the premise of commercial expediency. |
Our procedures included the following: ⢠Assessed the Company''s revenue recognition accounting policy for sale of products/ royalty and franchise business including those relating to discounts and incentives. ⢠Understood, evaluated and tested on sample basis the design and operating effectiveness of key internal controls over recognition and measurement of revenue, discounts, and incentives. ⢠Performed test of details on a sample basis and inspected the underlying accounting documents relating to sales and accrual of discounts and incentives. ⢠Tested on a sample basis, sales transactions during the year. ⢠Performed analytical procedures on revenue on all streams. ⢠Assessed the disclosures in the standalone financial statements in respect of revenue, discounts and incentives for compliance with disclosure requirements. |

Managementâs Responsibility for the Standalone 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 standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance, total comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the Ind AS and other accounting principles generally accepted in India. 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 were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the standalone 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.
Auditorâs Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the standalone 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 these standalone 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 standalone 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 financial controls 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 system 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 standalone 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 standalone financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the standalone financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the standalone financial statements that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the financial statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the financial statements.
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 standalone financial statements of the current period 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.

The Key Audit Matter |
How the matter was addressed in our audit |
|
1) Litigation Matters: [as described in note 32 of the financial statements] The company operates in various states within India, exposing it to a variety of different Central and State Laws, regulations and interpretations thereof. In this regulatory environment, there is an inherent risk of litigation and claims. Consequently, provisions and contingent liability disclosures may arise from direct and indirect tax proceeding, legal proceedings including regulatory and other government/department proceedings, as well as investigations by authorities and commercial claims.

2) Revenue recognition from sale of products/ Royalty and Franchise agreements (Note no 21 of the standalone financial statements) Revenue from sale of products is recognised when control of products has been transferred to the customer and there is no unfulfilled obligation that could affect the customer''s acceptance of the products. Revenue from sale of products is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of returns and allowances, discounts and incentives. Revenue generated on account of Royalty as per commercial agreements is subject to waiver in respect of Minimum Guarantee Quantum based on the premise of commercial expediency. |
Our procedures included the following: ⢠Assessed the Company''s revenue recognition accounting policy for sale of products/ royalty and franchise business including those relating to discounts and incentives. ⢠Understood, evaluated and tested on sample basis the design and operating effectiveness of key internal controls over recognition and measurement of revenue, discounts, and incentives. ⢠Performed test of details on a sample basis and inspected the underlying accounting documents relating to sales and accrual of discounts and incentives. ⢠Tested on a sample basis, sales transactions during the year. ⢠Performed analytical procedures on revenue on all streams. ⢠Assessed the disclosures in the standalone financial statements in respect of revenue, discounts and incentives for compliance with disclosure requirements. |

Information Other than the Standalone Financial Statements and Auditorâs Report Thereon
The Company''s management and Board of Directors are responsible for the preparation of 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 Report etc. included in Annual Report, but does not include the standalone financial statements and our auditor''s report thereon.
Our opinion on the standalone 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 standalone financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the standalone financial statements or our knowledge obtained during the course of our audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. In connection with the information included in the Annual report i.e Directors Report, Management Discussion and Analysis, Corporate Governance Report, 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 this fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Managementâs Responsibility for the Standalone 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 standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance, total comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the Ind AS and other accounting principles generally accepted in India. 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 were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the standalone 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.
Auditorâs Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the standalone 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 these standalone 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 standalone 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 financial controls 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 system 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 standalone 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 standalone financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the standalone financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the standalone financial statements that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the financial statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the financial statements.
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 standalone financial statements of the current period 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.

(a) We have sought and obtained all the information and explanations which to the best of our knowledge and belief were necessary for the purposes of our audit.

Independent Auditors'' Report
To the Members of Jagatjit Industries Limited Report on the Standalone Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements of Jagatjit Industries Limited [''the Company''], which comprise the balance sheet as at March 31, 2018, the statement of profit and loss and the cash flows and changes in equity of the Company in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards [Ind AS] prescribed under section 133 of the Act read with the Companies [Indian Accounting Standards] Rules 201 5, as amended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Management''s Responsibility for the Standalone Financial Statements
The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in Section 134[5] of the Companies Act, 2013 ["the Act"] with respect to the preparation and presentation of these standalone 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 under Section 133 of the Act, read with the Companies [Indian Accounting Standards] Rules 201 5. 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 were 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 standalone 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 thereunder.
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 misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and the disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors'' 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. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of the accounting policies used and the reasonableness of the accounting estimates made by the Company''s Directors, 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 on the standalone financial statements.
Basis for qualified opinion
[1] In the opinion of the management, Trade Receivable and Loans and Advances have a value on realisation in the ordinary course of business, at least equal to the amount at which they are stated in the Balance Sheet.
During the financial year ended March 31, 2018 confirmatory letters had been sent to the sundry creditors, suppliers and Trade Receivables requesting them to confirm and reconcile the account balances as on March 31, 2018. A significant number of parties have not yet confirmed/reconciled the balances as on the date of signing of the financial statements. Company has a policy of providing for [a] all debts outstanding beyond 3 years or [b] where recovery is considered doubtful irrespective of the fact that legal action has been initiated or not However non - moving debts outstanding beyond 1 year are to the extent of Rs. 750 Lacs for which confirmations and reconciliations are not available and have not been provided for. The system of obtaining confirmations and reconciliation need to be strengthened.
[2] An amount of Rs. 2,977 Lacs is outstanding in books of accounts of the Company, being an advance to its wholly owned subsidiary M/s S.R.K. Investments Pvt. Ltd., since 2010-11. No recovery of this amount has been made since disbursal of advance, to the aforementioned subsidiary.
The Company''s management, based on internal assessments and evaluations, have represented that the balance outstanding advances are recoverable and that no accrual for diminution of advances is necessary as at balance sheet date. The Company has received confirmation from the aforementioned subsidiary on March 31, 2018.
The Company has not created a provision against this advance in its books of accounts. In our opinion, there is significant uncertainty and doubt about the recovery of this advance from the subsidiary, as considerable period of time has elapsed from grant of advance and therefore, a provision for doubtful advance should have been accounted for in the financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2018.
Consequently, the loss for the year ended March 31, 2018 is understated and reserves and surplus (other equity] as at March 31, 2018 are overstated to the extent of Rs 3,727 Lacs. It may be noted that modified opinion was given in respect of the above two matters by the previous Auditors on the financial statements for the period ended 31st March 2017. We have also given modified opinion vide report (dated 30th May, 2018] in pursuance of Regulation 33 of SEBI (listing obligations]
Qualified Opinion
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, subject to matters described in basis for qualified opinion paragraph above, the aforesaid standalone 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, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2018 and its loss, total comprehensive income, the changes in equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.
Emphasis of Matter
⢠Attention is drawn to Note No. 4[vi] regarding fair value of investment properties; Note No. 5 [iii] regarding nil diminution in the value of investment of Rs. 1,016 Lacs in the subsidiary company, Note No. 6 [i] and 6 [ii] regarding loan to related parties and employees Note No. 8 [i] regarding MAT credit and Note No. 8 [iii] regarding interest free security deposits, Note No. 8[iv] &. Note 39 [iii] regarding provision made for advance to director in earlier year, Note No. 13 [i] regarding security deposits and loans and advances to employees, Note No. 14 [i] regarding commercial advance of Rs. 132 Lacs to a group company, Note No. 15 regarding advances given to associate company; Note No 16 regarding assets held for sale, Note No. 23 [i] and 24[ii] regarding bills payable; Note No. 24 [iii] regarding claim of GAIL [India] Ltd, Note No. 35B[i] regarding deferred tax, Note No. 44 regarding various risks, Note No. 45 regarding borrowings not shown at amortised cost.
⢠Without qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to Note 2.3 in the financial statements which indicates that the Company incurred a net loss of Rs. 7,433 Lacs during the year ended March 31, 2018 and, as of that date, the company''s current liabilities exceeding the total assets by Rs. 7,620 Lacs. These conditions along with other matters as set forth in Note 2.3, indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the company''s ability to continue as a going concern. Company has disclosed the mitigating factors vide the said Note and we have relied upon the same.
⢠We draw attention to Note 46 [iv], the Company has published the standalone and consolidated Financial results for the year ended March 2018 and we have issued the report dated May 30, 2018 in pursuance of regulation 33 of SEBI [listing obligations and Disclosure Requirements] Regulations 2015. After publishing the results, certain adjusting events have occurred, which has resulted in confirmation of contingent liability of Rs. 320 Lacs, estimated at Rs. 9,933 Lacs till contract year 2016 and disclosed vide note no. 7 of the published results. Therefore in accordance with IND AS - 10, financial statements to that extent are amended. Impact of the adjusting event is that contingent liabilities of Rs. 9,933 Lacs are reduced and confirmed liability of Rs. 320 Lacs is provided resulting in increase of loss of the year by Rs. 320 Lacs; decrease in retained earnings by Rs. 320 Lacs and corresponding increase in the current liability of Rs. 320 Lacs. Company has taken Legal opinion that it is neither required to adopt revised Financial Results for the period ended March 31, 2018 under Regulation 33 of SEBI [Listing Obligations and Disclosures Requirements] Regulations, 2015 nor the Company is required to revise the Financial Statements for the said period under section 131 of the Companies Act, 2013. We have relied upon the legal opinion.
⢠The Internal Audit system of the company needs to be substantially strengthened in scope, coverage and compliance in respect of Hamira Plant and Head Office operations.
Our opinion is not qualified in respect of these matters.

1. As required by the Companies [Auditors'' Report] Order, 2016 ["the Order"] issued by the Central Government of India in terms of sub-section [11 ] of section 143 of the Act, we give in the "Annexure A", a statement on the matters specified in the paragraph 3 and 4 of the order.

Annexure B to The Independent Auditors'' Report
[Referred to in Paragraph 2 [f] under the heading of "Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements" of our report of even date to the members of Jagatjit Industries Limited on the financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2018]
Report on the Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013 (''the Act'')
We have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting of Jagatjit Industries Limited ["the Company"] as of March 31, 2018 in conjunction with our audit of the standalone financial statements of the Company for the year ended on that date.
Management''s Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls
The Company''s Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting [the "Guidance Note"] issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India [''ICAI'']. These responsibilities include the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to Company''s policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Act
Auditors'' Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company''s internal financial controls over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note and the Standards on Auditing, issued by ICAI and deemed to be prescribed under section 143[10] of the Act, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls, both applicable to an audit of Internal Financial Controls and both issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with the ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting was established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.
Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system over financial reporting and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on the auditors'' judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Company''s internal financial controls system over financial reporting.
Meaning of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting
A company''s internal financial control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company''s internal financial control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that [1 ] pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company, [2] provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorisations of management and directors of the company, and [3] provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorised acquisition, use, or disposition of the company''s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements
Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting
Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial controls over financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Opinion
In our opinion, the Company generally has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system over financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were generally operating effectively as at March 31, 2018, except in respect of trade receivable reconciliation and provision for bad and doubtful debts where controls were found to be ineffective and in respect of various areas namely Capitalisation of Fixed Assets [Hamira], Classification of an asset to an asset group in Fixed Asset Register (Hamira], Accounts payable process (Head office & Hamira], Debit notes (Head office & Hamira], Bank reconciliation process (Head office & Hamira], Cash Management (Hamira], TDS Payment compliance, Prepaid Expenses, Goods & Service Tax, Reconciliation with Contract Manufacturing Units,
Foreign Exchange management (Head office], Contracts for Rental Income (Head Office], Revenue recognition of Royalty Income from Franchise operation (Head office & Hamira], TDS Return Compliance [Behror] where controls were effective but need to be strengthened based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting 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.
5. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and the disclosures in the financial statements.

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.

6. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our qualified audit opinion on the standalone financial statements.
Basis for qualified opinion
7. In the opinion of the management, Accounts Receivable & Loans and Advances have a value on realization in the ordinary course of business, at least equal to the amount at which they are stated in the Balance Sheet.
During the financial year ended 31st March 2016 confirmatory letters have been sent to the sundry creditors, suppliers and sundry debtors requesting them to confirm and reconcile the account balances as on 31st March, 2016. A number of parties have not yet confirmed/reconciled the balances as on the date of signing of the financial statements.
Accordingly, Trade payables, Loans and Advances and balances appearing under Trade Receivables are subject to reconciliation & confirmation. The financial impact of this is not ascertainable and to that extent we do not have any information in respect of such balances.

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, except for the effects of the matter described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion Paragraph above, the aforesaid standalone 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:

Against these, the company received demand from supplier aggregating to Rs.7,015 lacs towards Annual Take or Pay Deficiency basis. The company has denied the liability in this regard to the supplier and the management is confident that there will be no material amount on resolution.

Our opinion is not qualified in respect of this matter.

ANNEXURE ''B'' TO THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS'' REPORT
(Referred to in Paragraph 11(h) under the heading of "Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements" of our report of even date to the members of Jagatjit Industries Limited on the financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2016)
Report on the Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013 the Act'')
We have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting of Jagatjit Industries Limited ("the Company") as of March 31, 2016 in conjunction with our audit of the standalone financial statements of the Company for the year ended on that date.
Management''s Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls
The Company''s Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting (the "Guidance Note") issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (''ICAI''). These responsibilities include the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to Company''s policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Act.
Auditors'' Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company''s internal financial controls over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note and the Standards on Auditing, issued by ICAI and deemed to be prescribed under section 143(10) of the Act, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls, both applicable to an audit of Internal Financial Controls and both issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with the ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting was established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects. Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system over financial reporting and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on the auditorâs judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Company''s internal financial controls system over financial reporting.
Meaning of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting
A company''s internal financial control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company''s internal financial control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;
(2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company''s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements
Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting
Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial controls over financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Opinion
In our opinion, the Company has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system over financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as at March 31, 2016, based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.
Emphasis of Matter
We would draw attention to matters disclosed in Paragraphs under ''Basis for Qualified Opinion'', which could indicate possible lapses in internal financial controls system.
Our opinion under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Act is not qualified in respect of this matter.
