However, S.T Mohite & Co resigned as Statutory Auditors of the Company w.e.f. closing hours of 2nd September, 2024 owning to the company being non responsive to our request for increase in audit fee which itself is very low and against ICAI recommendations.The Board of Directors noted the resignation of M/s S.T Mohite & Co, Chartered Accountantsas the Statutory Auditors in the Board meeting held on 2nd September, 2024 and upon recommendation of the Audit Committee, proposed the appointment of M/sYelamanchi & Associates., Chartered Accountants (ICAI Firm Registration No. 000041S) as the Statutory Auditors of the Company to fill the casual vacancy.

Qualifications, Reservations or Adverse Remarks in Audit Report |
Management Replies to observations of Auditors |
|
1 |
Note no.47 a) the financial statements about confirmation of balances. We requested direct confirmation for the year-end balances from whom amounts were payable or receivable. However, except for secured loans, current account balances and deposits withbanks, the company did not obtain direct confirmation directly for these balances. Due to lack of confirmations, and the limitations in performing alternative procedures to independently verify balances other than loans, |
Agree with finding. For direct confirmation of balances we recommend the head of the department to Ensure policies and procedures are in place to Ensure all the balance confirmation must be direct Confirmations. |
|
deposit and current account balances with banks, we were unable to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the accuracy and completeness of the remaining balances as reported in the financial statements. Consequently, the potential impact of these unverified balances on the financial statements could not be determined. |
||
|
2 |
Note no.8 to the financial statements about the inventories. The company conducted physical verification ofinventories as on 31 March 2024 which constitutes approximately 38.10% of total assets as on the balance sheet date. Due to the unique and specialised nature of the inventories, we were unable to sufficiently verify the valuation of these items. Although management provided a technical report to support the valuation, the complexity and the esoteric characteristics of the inventory limit our ability to form a reliable opinion on its accuracy. Consequently, we are unable to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the valuation of the inventory, and the potential impact of this matter on the financial statements could not be determined. |
Agree, we have provided the valuation report of inventories valued by technical person for its accuracy and completeness of value of inventories. |
|
