We have audited the financial statements of NILACHAL REFRACTORIES 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 ended on that date, and notes to the financial statements including a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information ( hereinafter referred to as “ the financial statements”).

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according lo the explanations given to us, excepl for theeffect of the matter described in the “Basis for Qualified opinion” paragraph of our report, the aforesaid financial statements give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the slate of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2024, the Loss and total comprehensive income, changes in equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.

Basis for Qualified Opi uion

1. The Company coniinues not to assess impairment of carrying value of tangible assets of Rs 378.06 Lacs and Capital work in progress of Rs 3147.04 Lacs in accordance wiLh requirements of Indian Accounting Standard 36 on “Impairment of Assets”. Moreover, there has been no movement in the Capital work in progress since 31.03.2014. We are unable to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence about the recoverable amount of the Company’s tangible assets and capital work in progress. Consequently, we are unable tn determine whether any adjustments to carrying value are necessary and consequential impacts on die financial statements.

2. Employee Retirement benefits are accounted for in the books on the basis as prescribed for in ihe relevant Act, and not on the basis of actuarial valuation as required under Indian Accounting Standard (Ind AS) 19 issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India and the liability is also not funded. However, in absence of necessary information being made available to us the impact of the same o.i the loss for the year of the company and corresponding effect on liability cannot be ascertained and quantified.

3. The company had issued two kind of redeemable preference shares a) l l%Redeemable Cumulative preference shares of Rs 100/- each fully paid up andb) 0% Redeemable Preference Shares of Rs. 100/-each fully paid up.

a) 11% preference shares were due for redemption on or before September 2000 but the ___ same has not been redeemed and continues to be disclosed as such which is not in

©accordance with Indian Accounting Standard (Ind AS) 32-Financial Instrument. As per terms of issue the company was required to accounl for in the year under review a sum of \ Rs 1.65 Lacs as dividend payable to the preference shareholders since the same lias not

/ been redeemed upto the vear under review. Moreover, the company should have

accounted for the accumulated cumulative dividend on preference shares up to 3 L.03.2023 amounting to Rs 70.08Lacs which remains unaccounted. Had the same been accounted for, the loss for the year would have been higher by Rs 1.65 Lacs and the reserve and surplus would have been lower by Rs 71.73 Lacs.

b) In respect of 0% Redeemable Preference Share of Rs. 100/- each die company was required redeem the same at 10% premium upto a passage of 36 months from the date of issueand in addition pay a premium of Rs 10/ for every completed financial year after passage of 36 months from I he date of issue Li ll the redemption of preference share. Accordingly, the company was requi red to account for in Lhe year under review a sum of Rs 282.22 Lacs as premium to be paid on redemption of such preference shares since the same has not been redeemed in the year under review. Moreover, the company should have accounted for a cumulative premium payable on redemption of preference shares upto 31.03.2023 amounting to Rs 210L.53I.acs which remains unaccounted. Had Lhe same been accounted for. the loss for the year would have been higher by Rs 282 .22 lakh and the reserve and surplus would have been lower by Rs 2383.75 lacs.

We conducted our audit in accordance with Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under section ¦43(10) of the Companies Act, 2013. Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Compiiny in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements under the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the ICATs Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our qualified opinion.

Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern

We draw attention to Not? No. 31 (e) of the Financial Statement, regarding preparation of Financial Statements on Going Concern basis for the reasons stated therein. The Company has incurred a net loss of Rs.649.66 lakhs (Previous Year: Rs. 179.48 lakhs) during Lhe year ended March 31,2024 and as of that date, the Company’s current liabilities exceed its current assets by Rs. 1283.02 lakhs. As on 5151 March 2024 the company’s total liabilities exceeds its total assets leading to a negative net worth of Rs. 592.13 Lacs. The Company continues to incur losses and there is considerable decline in the level of operations.

These events or conditions as set forth herein above, indicate that a material uncertainty exisis that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Our opinion is not modified in respecL of this matter.

The other information comprises the information included in the Management Discussion and Analysis and Director''s Kepon including Annex ares to Director''s Report but does not include the financial statements and our audiioi ''s report theieon.

Our opinion on the 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 financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the 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 tiiis other information, we are required to repoit thai fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Statements

The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the matters staled in section L34(5) of the Companies Act, 2013 {''The Act”) with respect to the preparation of these financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance, changes in equity and cash flows of die Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the accounting Standards specified under section 133 of the Act. This responsibility also includes mamLenance 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 financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error,

In preparing the financial statements, the Board of Directors is responsible for assessing the Company''s ability to continue as a going concent, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those Board of Directors are also responsible lor overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.

Auditor’s Responsibility for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statemenls 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 Standards on Auditing will always detect a material misstaLement when ii exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expeaed to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

As part ol an audit in accordance with Standards on Auditing, wre exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:

• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and oblain 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 Companies Act, 2013, 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 conlrols.

¦ Evaluate the appjupriateness 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 financial stalements 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 financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether ihe 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 malters, 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. 5

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the 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 extremelv rare circumstances we determine that a matler should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences

ot doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

We have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting of NILACHAL REFRACTORIES LIMITED (The Company) as of 31st March, 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 the internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit or Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. 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 Companies Act, 2013.

Auditors'' Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion of the Company''s internal financial controls over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of internal Financial Controls. Over Financial Reporting (the "Guidance Note") issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India and the Standards on Auditing prescribed under section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013 to the extent applicable to an audit of internal Financial Control. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with 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 auditor''s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statement 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 these 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 control 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 to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, 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 31st March, 2018 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.
