1. We have audited the standalone financial statements of Raasi Refractories Limited (âthe
Companyâ), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at 31st March, 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 material accounting policies and other explanatory
information (hereinafter referred to as the âStandalone Financial Statementsâ).
2. In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us,
the aforesaid Standalone Financial Statements give the information required by the
Companies Act, 2013 (the âActâ) in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in
conformity with the Indian Accounting Standards prescribed under section 133 of the Act,
(âInd ASâ) and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of
the Company as at March 31,2024 and its profit, total comprehensive income, changes in
equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.
3. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under
section 143(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 Company 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 the 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 opinion.
4. Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most
significance in our audit of the standalone financial statements of the current year. These
matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the standalone financial statements as a
whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these
matters. In our professional judgment, we have determined that there is no key audit matter to
be communicated in our report.
5. 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, Business Responsibility and
Sustainability Report, Corporate Governance and Shareholder''s Information, but does not
include the consolidated financial statements, Standalone Financial Statements and our
auditor''s report thereon.
6. Our opinion on the Financial Statements does not cover the other information and we do not
express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
7. 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 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.
8. The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of
the Companies Act, 2013 (âthe Actâ) with respect to the preparation 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. 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 implementation and maintenance of 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 statement that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement,
whether due to fraud or error.
9. In preparing the 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.
10. The Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the company''s financial reporting
process.
11. Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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 financial statements.
12. As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain
professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
12.1 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.
12.2 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.
12.3 Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of
accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
12.4 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.
12.5 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.
13. 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 Standalone 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 Standalone Financial Statements.
14. 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.
15. 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.
16. 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.
17. As required by the Companies (Auditor''s Report) Order, 2020 (âthe Orderâ) 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 paragraphs 3 and 4 of the Order, to

We have audited the accompanying Financial Statements of RAASI
REFRACTORIES LIMITED ("the Company"), which comprises the Balance Sheet
as at 31 March 2015, the Statement of Profit and Loss, the Cash Flow
Statement for the year the ended, and a summary of significant
accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements
The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the matters in
section 134(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 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 Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts)
Rules, 2014. This responsibility also includes the maintenance of
adequate accounting records in accordance with the provision of the Act
for safeguarding of the assets of the Company and for preventing and
detecting the 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 internal financial control, 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.
Auditor's 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 misstatement.
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
whether the Company has in place an adequate internal financial control
system over financial reporting and the operating effectiveness of such
controls. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of
accounting policies used and the reasonableness of the accounting
estimates made by the management 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 financial
statements.
Basis for qualified opinion
i. Attention is invited to Note No: 8 to Financial Statements
regarding Loans from financial Institutions and in respect of the same
an interest of Rs. 239.35 lacs (including previous years) is not
provided. The profits and reserves of the company do not reflect the
correct position to that extent and liability of the company is also
understated to that extent.
ii. Attention is invited to Note No: 8 to Financial Statements
regarding outstanding Statutory Liabilities and in respect of the same
the interest / penalty payable is not provided. Due to absence of full
details the amount of Interest / penalty could not be quantified.
iii. Attention is invited to Note No: 17 to Financial Statements,
regarding the Other Income and in respect of the interest income the
accrued interest of Rs.2.85 lacs on bank deposits is not recognized,
the revenue of the Company & assets of the company are understated to
that extent.
iv. As stipulated in the provisions of Section 138 of Companies Act,
2013, the company has not appointed an Internal Auditor.
Qualified Opinion
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the
explanations given to us, except for the effect of the matter described
in the Basis for Qualified Opinion Paragraph, the financial statements
give the information required by the Act in the manner so required and
give a true and fair view inconformity with the accounting principles
generally accepted in India:
a) in the case of the Balance Sheet, of the state of affairs of the
Company as at March 31, 2015;
b) in the case of Statement of Profit and Loss, of the loss for 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.
Emphasis Matter
We draw attention to the following matters:
a) Note No: 10 to the financial statements on the matter of providing
depreciation on fixed assets. The company has provided depreciation on
Straight Line Method as per the provisions of (Schedule XIV) Companies
Act, 1956 where as the company has to provide depreciation as per the
provisions of (Schedule II) Companies Act, 2013.
b) Note No: 12 to the financial statements on matters relating to
Inventories: The factory of the company was not functioning for about
18 Months due to various reasons like shortage of power, labour
problems, shortage of raw materials, financial constraints etc, and the
factory started operations from the middle of the financial year by
which time most of the stocks are reported to be obsolete. Hence there
is substantial depletion in the value of closing stock at the end of
the financial year.
c) The confirmation of balances of payable & receivables have not been
obtained. The receivables are netted from the trade payables and short
term loans. There are some old claims, receivables in respect of which
no provision is made for doubtful/irrecoverable debts as the company is
hopeful of recovery /adjustment. Hence we are unable to express our
opinion on payables & receivables and the consequent effect on the
Financial Statements. Other Matter:
During the financial year on 28th February 2015 on behalf of Mr. Konda
Laxmaiah & M/s. Ram Laxman Parboiled Rice Private Limited an open offer
to the equity share holders of the company was made pursuant to and in
compliance of SEBI Regulations, 2011 for substantial acquisition and
takeover of the company.
