Business and Operations

Operating Environment

The operating environment this year continued to remain
challenging. Geopolitical conflict in Europe coupled with
the global supply chain disruptions led to an unprecedented
inflation in food, energy, and commodity prices. The

highs. There has been, however, normalization in economic
activities after a couple of years of Covid induced disruptions.

Unitech Limited for the Quarter and Financial Year ended 31.03.2025

Sr. No.

Auditor''s Qualifications

Management''s Response

1.

Resolution Framework

We draw attention to Note no. 4 of the Audited
Standalone Financial Results, which have made
references to the Resolution Framework (RF) for
Unitech group. The company has requested the
Hon''ble Supreme Court to grant some concessions
and reliefs so that the company is able to fulfil its
obligations towards the construction of the projects
and meet other liabilities. Resolution framework of
Unitech group filed by New Management before the
Hon''ble Supreme Court on 10th September, 2020,
Revised Version on 28th October, 2020 and Revised
Version on 27th April, 2022 has not yet been approved
by the Hon''ble Supreme Court. Accordingly, the
impact of the proposed reliefs, concessions etc. have
not been considered in the books of accounts.

The points mentioned herein are informatory in nature
and the Management has no further comments to offer
on the same.

2.

Material uncertainty related to going concern

We draw attention to Note no. 5 of the Audited
Standalone Financial Results wherein the management
has represented that the Audited Standalone Financial
Results have been prepared on a going concern basis,
notwithstanding the fact that the Company has eroded
its net worth and has incurred losses, both in the
current and previous year, has challenges in meeting
its obligations, servicing its current liabilities including
bank loans and public deposits. The Company also has
various litigation matters which are pending before
different forums. Further, the New Management has
inherited various projects of the Company, which are
pending for considerable construction and residual
works to be completed.

In compliance of the directions of the Hon''ble Supreme
Court, as contained in Court''s order dated 20th January
2020, the Government appointed Board of Directors
has requested the Hon''ble Supreme Court to grant
certain concessions and reliefs so that the Company
is able to fulfil its obligations towards the construction
and completion of in-complete projects and meet
other liabilities.

The Management has already stated its position in the
Resolution Framework submitted in the Hon''ble Supreme
Court on 15.07.2020, followed by updated versions
submitted on 05.02.2021 and on 08.08.2022, wherein
the Hon''ble Supreme Court has been prayed to grant
certain concessions and reliefs so that the Company is
able to fulfill its obligations towards the construction
and completion of projects and meet other liabilities.
The reasons for opting against winding up the Company
or its reference under IBC have fully been explained in
the application filed for submission of the Resolution
Framework. The Management is hopeful that as per
mandate given by Hon''ble Supreme Court, the company
would be able to generate sufficient funds to complete
the projects as per timelines notified in the award of
contracts and, accordingly, no material uncertainty exists
in the Company continuing as a going concern. As such,
expressing doubts about the Company as an ongoing
concern is rather pre-mature at this stage.

Sr. No.

Auditor''s Qualifications

Management''s Response

These conditions indicate the existence of material
uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about
Company''s ability to continue as a going concern.
The appropriateness of assumption of going concern
is critically dependent upon the Company''s ability
to raise finance and generate cash flows in future to
meet its obligations, and also on the final decision
of the Hon''ble Supreme Court on the Resolution
Framework. Also, the Board of Directors are exploring
various possible options for completion of ongoing
projects and are trying to generate additional possible
revenues by construction of new flats.

Considering the above, we are unable to express an
opinion on this matter.

3.

Impairment Assessment

The Management of the Company has not conducted
any impairment assessment for the investments made
by the erstwhile management in subsidiary companies,
joint ventures and associates having aggregate
carrying value of Rs. 972,18,.09 lakhs, despite of
strong indicators existing for impairment assessment,
as required by Ind AS 36, ''Impairment of Assets''. In
view of non-existence of any impairment study, we
are unable to conclude upon the adjustments, if any,
that may be required to the carrying value of these
investments and its consequential impact on the
Audited Standalone Financial Results. (refer Note 6 (v)
of the Audited Standalone Financial Results).

Unitech Limited has 185 Indian Subsidiary Companies out
of which 08 subsidiary Companies had been struck off
by the Registrar of Companies, NCT Delhi and Haryana.
The Management moved the National Company Law
Tribunal (NCLT) for revival of the struck off subsidiaries.
As on date, all the subsidiaries have been ordered to be
revived.

M/s Unitech Power Transmission Limited, ceases to be
a subsidiary company of M/s Unitech Limited w.e.f. 13th
March, 2025 in terms of Share Purchase Agreement
executed on 11th March, 2025 amongst M/s Unitech Ltd,
six subsidiary companies (holding 10 shares each jointly
with M/s Unitech Ltd.), M/s Unitech Power Transmission
Limited and M/s Auro Infra Private Limited. The Share
Purchase Agreement was executed pursuant to the
approval of Hon''ble Supreme Court vide its orders dated
11.12.2024 at a price of Rs 5089.00 lakh on "as-is-where-
is-whatever-is" basis.

The progress in audit of accounts of these 185 subsidiaries
is as under:

(a) Statutory Auditors appointed in respect of 162
Indian subsidiary companies so far and statutory
audit in respect of 53 subsidiaries is up to date;

(b) Appointment of Statutory auditors under progress
in case of 10 subsidiaries;

(c) For the remaining 13 Subsidiaries, wherein there is
a substantial foreign investment, necessary steps
are being taken by the Company in this regard.

As regards 32 foreign subsidiaries along with Libya
Division and 03 foreign JVs, the management has listed
down their available details. These are as under:

(a) Audited Balance Sheets of 04 foreign subsidiaries,
02 foreign JVs, and that of Libya Division are not
available with the Company.

Sr. No.

Auditor''s Qualifications

Management''s Response

(b) For rest of the Companies, the last audited available
Balance Sheets are those of 31.03.2017 except for
two Companies whose available Balance Sheets
are those of 31.03.2010 and 31.03.2016. Moreover,
it is pertinent to mention that, as per information
available to the new management, the Central
Investigating Agencies are believed to be engaged
with the issues pertaining to these entities.

The matter regarding investment in Carnoustie
Management Pvt Ltd (CMPL) and CIG is under
investigations by the Investigating Agencies and the
Enforcement Directorate (ED) has issued various
attachment orders. The Management has included the
transactions with CMPL and CIG as "avoidable" in the
Resolution Framework submitted before the Hon''ble
Supreme Court. It is pertinent to mention here that Unitech
Limited has also filed an IA in the Hon''ble Supreme Court
for the recovery of the investments made in CMPL, which
has been heard but the order is awaited.

However, keeping in view the investigations being carried
out by the ED, approval of the Provisional Attachment
Orders (PAOs) by the Adjudicating Authority and the ED
having filed Prosecution Complaints before the Special
Court under the PMLA, the Company is left with no option
but to await the final outcome in these matters.

In view of the position explained above, it is neither
possible nor feasible at this stage to undertake any
impairment assessment. The impairment assessment can
be got conducted by the company through some expert
in accordance with applicable Accounting Standards
(Ind As 36), only after having in possession the complete
details / documents/ reports etc.

4.

Fair Value of estimated loss allowance on loans and

All available information/ details/ documents in
possession of the Management stand provided to the
Statutory Auditors. However, the fair estimation w.r.t. the
recognition of fair value of the estimated loss allowance
on loans given by the erstwhile management to subsidiary
companies, joint ventures and associates and trade
receivables from subsidiary companies, joint ventures
and associates, is not feasible as of now, because of the
ongoing investigations by the ED, and the ED having filed
charge-sheets before the Adjudicating Authority under
PMLA and the matter being sub-judice. This job will be
completed by engagement of experts only after the final
verdicts are available from the Hon''ble Court(s).

trade receivables

Due to legacy issues inherited from erstwhile
management, the company is not having sufficient
evidence about the recognition of fair value of the
estimated loss allowance on loans and advances
given by erstwhile management to subsidiary
companies, joint ventures and associates amounting
to Rs. 4475,92.28 lakhs and trade receivables from
subsidiary companies, joint ventures and associates
amounting to Rs. 45,55.06 lakhs as required by Ind
AS 109, ''Financial Instruments''. (refer Note 6(vi) of the
Audited Standalone Financial Results).

We are therefore unable to express an opinion on
the recoverability of the loans and trade receivables
from subsidiary, joint ventures and associates, fair
value of estimated loss allowance on loans and trade
receivables given and the consequential impact on the
Audited Standalone Financial Statements.

Sr. No.

Auditor''s Qualifications

Management''s Response

5.

CorDorate and Bank Guarantees

We draw attention to note 20 of Audited Standalone
Financial results which contains details of corporate
and bank guarantees issued by the erstwhile
management for its subsidiaries and joint ventures.
Due to legacy issues inherited from erstwhile
management, the company is not having sufficient
evidence regarding recognition of fair value of the
estimated loss allowance on corporate and bank
guarantee given by erstwhile management on behalf
of its subsidiary, joint ventures and associates
amounting Rs. 1365,44.58 lakhs as required by Ind AS
109, ''Financial Instruments''. We are therefore unable
to express an opinion on the fair value of estimated
loss allowance on corporate and bank guarantee

There are a number of secured, unsecured and operational
creditors qua the company and its subsidiaries, JVs and
other affiliates. Further, the Company and promoters have
also given various kinds of Guarantees, including Bank
Guarantees and Corporate Guarantees, the lists whereof (to
the extent of availability of records), surviving or matured,
have been shared with Statutory Auditors. However, it may
not be possible to vouchsafe at this stage that these are the
only Guarantees given by the Company.

The issues pertaining to secured, unsecured and
operational creditors have been covered in Chapter-3 of
the Resolution Framework (RF). Apart from seeking various
reliefs and concessions qua such creditors, the RF also
contains a provision on invitation of Claims and settlement
thereof (3.2). These issues have yet not been adjudicated
by the Hon''ble Supreme Court. Hence, it is neither possible
nor feasible at this stage to undertake any impairment
assessment of secured creditors, and/ or Corporate
Guarantees till these related issues are crystallized and
settled by the Hon''ble Supreme Court. Likewise, some
of the investments/ advances made by the company are
a subject matter of investigations being conducted by
various Central Investigating Agencies.

6.

Advances for purchase of land and Investments
The Management of the Company has not conducted
any impairment assessment for the investments
made and advances given for purchase of land by the
erstwhile management in unrelated companies/ entities
having aggregate carrying value of Rs. 614,88.20
lakhs and Rs. 312,90.99 lakhs respectively, despite of
strong indicators existing for impairment assessment,
as required by Ind AS 36, ''Impairment of Assets''. In
view of non-existence of any impairment study, we are
unable to express an opinion upon the adjustments,
if any, that may be required to the carrying value of
these investments and its consequential impact on the
Standalone Financial Statements. (refer Note 6(v) of
the Audited Standalone Financial Results).

As already stated, various issues (including the investments
made and advances given for purchase of land by the
erstwhile management in unrelated companies/ entities)
as mentioned in Resolution Framework have yet not been
adjudicated by the Hon''ble Supreme Court. Hence, it is
neither possible nor feasible at this stage to undertake
any impairment assessment of investments made and
advances given for purchase of land by the erstwhile
management till these related issues are crystallized and
settled by the Hon''ble Supreme Court. Likewise, some
of the investments/ advances made by the company are
a subject matter of investigations being conducted by
various Central Investigating Agencies.

7.

Amount recoverable from GNIDA

Amount recoverable from GNIDA amounting
Rs. 183,39.80 lakhs is subject to confirmation/
reconciliation. In view of absence of the reconciliation,
we are unable to conclude on the consequential impact
of same on standalone financial results. (refer Note
13(iii) of the Audited Standalone Financial Results).

It is a statement of fact that the said balance is subject
to confirmation/ reconciliation. Attention in this behalf
is invited to the Orders dated 01.02.2023 of the Hon''ble
Supreme Court wherein it has been held that the
determination of dues of Noida, (including those of
GNIDA) would be taken up separately after hearing the
Government appointed Board and the Authorities.

Sr. No.

Auditor''s Qualifications

Management''s Response

The latest progress with regard to the issues pending
between Noida and Greater Noida Authorities and
Unitech Group, is that the Hon''ble Supreme Court, vide
its order dated 18.12.2024, requested Hon''ble Justice
(Retd.) Abhay Manohar Sapre, a former Judge of the
Supreme Court, to make an attempt to amicably resolve
the issues of outstanding dues and possession of allotted
land between Noida/ Greater Noida Authorities and the
Unitech. Pursuant thereto, meetings have been held at
the level of Justice (Retd.) A.M. Sapre wherein some of
the issues have been partially resolved. However, there
has been no progress on the issue of outstanding dues.
The Hon''ble Supreme Court, vide its latest orders dated
21.05.2025, has directed NOIDA "to submit its claims
before the Court within four weeks. The Unitech Ltd. may
submit its counter reply within two weeks thereafter. Post
this application on 21.08.2025 for final determination and
quantification of dues payable by Unitech Ltd. to NOIDA".

8.

Variation of Rs. 9,34.15 lakhs has been observed
between balance lying with Supreme Court registry and
books of accounts and the same is under reconciliation.
In view of absence of the reconciliation, we are unable
to express an opinion on the consequential impact of
same on standalone financial statements. (refer Note 6
(i) of the Audited Standalone Financial Results).

The variations amounting to Rs 934.15 lakhs were
observed between the Balance as per books of Accounts
vis-a-vis as per Supreme Court''s Registry in Financial
Year 2022-23. It has been taken up with the Supreme
Court Registry repeatedly and will be reconciled as soon
as the relevant information is received from the Registry.

9.

Outstanding balances oendina for Reconciliation/
Confirmation

Balance of amounts due to/ from trade receivables,
trade payables (including MSME Vendors), bank
balances, borrowings, advance received from
customers, advance to suppliers, security deposits,
other loans and advances, advance for purchase of
land, inter corporate deposits and other assets are
pending for reconciliation / confirmation. The overall
impact of the above and the consequential impact
of same on Standalone Financial Results are not
ascertainable and hence, we are unable to express
an opinion on the same. (refer Note 7 of the Audited
Standalone Financial Results).

It is stated that as per Standards on Auditing (SA)-505
prescribed by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of
India (ICAI), the process of external confirmation is to be
initiated by the Statutory Auditors for directly obtaining
the evidence from the confirming parties at their level.
However, the Management would initiate and follow¬
up on this exercise keeping the Statutory Auditors in
loop with respect to the outstanding balances as on
31.03.2025. It would therefore be appropriate that the
Statutory Auditors take up external confirmations based
on random sampling basis since obtaining confirmation
from all the parties would be a time-consuming exercise.

10.

Refer Note 7 & 11 of Standalone Financial Statements:-

(a) Statutory dues related to Income-Tax Act, 1962
amounting Rs. 79,29.00 lakhs, Professional Tax
amounting Rs. 0.59 Lakhs, Employees Provident
Funds and Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952
amounting to Rs. 24,42.87 Lakhs pertaining to
the period of erstwhile management, are unpaid
since long. In view of non-payment of statutory
dues, possibility of levies, some penalties by the
respective departments cannot be ruled out. On
account of the above, we are unable to express
an opinion on the consequential impact of same
on standalone financial statements. (refer Note 7
of the Audited Standalone Financial Results).

(a) The Government appointed Board of Directors has
already submitted its Resolution Framework (RF)
before the Hon''ble Supreme Court on 16.07.2020,
followed by updated versions dated 02.05.2021
and 08.08.2022, wherein the Company has sought
various reliefs on account of penalties, interest
liabilities etc., among others, due to be paid by
the company to the Statutory Authorities, Banks,
Financial Institutions etc.

Since a definite view on various reliefs sought in the
RF is yet to be taken by the Hon''ble Supreme Court,
it is not feasible at this stage to assess the overall
impact of its outstanding statutory liabilities.

Sr. No.

Management''s Response

However, the New Management is committed to
make the company compliant in terms of various
provisions contained in the Companies Act 2013
and other related Acts, Rules, Regulations etc. In the
latest progress, it is intimated that Hon''ble Supreme
Court vide its orders dated 5th March, 2025/ 17th
March, 2025 directed the Registry to release the
amount of Rs. 23,04,97,766/- towards deposit of
TDS in respect of ex-employees/ other employees
for five Financial Years (2015-16 to 2019-20) under
section 192 of Income Tax Act, 1961. The company
has deposited the amount in 05 different challans,
filed correction statements and complied with
the directions issued by the Hon''ble Court by 31st
March, 2025.

Default in reDavment of Public Deposits

We draw attention to Note no. 11 of the Audited
Financial Results in respect of default in repayment of
public deposits accepted by erstwhile management.
As per the financial books, principal amount of
deposit accepted for Rs. 529,12.98 lakhs is overdue
for repayment. The Company has not created any
provision for interest payable during the period
ended 31st March 2025 amounting Rs. 64,56.39 lakhs
(accumulated unaccounted interest is Rs. 547,78.53
lakhs) taking a clue from the directions of the Hon''ble
Supreme Court from time to time issued for payment
of the Principal Amount to the FD holders, as explained
by the management. In our opinion, losses of the
Company and value of public deposits are understated
to extent of Rs. 547,78.53 lakhs subject to a final
decision of the Hon''ble supreme Court in the matter.

This issue has duly been explained in Chapter 8 of the
Resolution Framework (RF) submitted to the Hon''ble
Supreme Court and the Company shall take action as
per the directions of the Hon''ble Court in this behalf. The
New Management neither processes any such case nor
is it authorized to do so till the Hon''ble Supreme Court
takes a decision in this matter.

It is, however, clarified that disbursement to some of the
fixed deposit holders (Sr. Citizens on a pro-rata basis)
has been made through the Ld. Amicus Curie on the
directions of the Hon''ble Supreme Court issued from
time to time in the past. The details of amount disbursed
to the FD holders directly from the Registry have been
received in the Company on 22.11.2022 and the amount
of disbursal is being captured in the books of accounts
and reconciled.

Further refund of another amount of Rs. 19.02 Crore has
been approved by the Hon''ble Supreme Court vide its
various orders for refund of principal amount of FDs to
the depositors on grounds of Medical Exigencies. As
on 31.03.2025, the Company has already released an
amount of Rs. 18.07 Cr. to 633 out of 713 FD holders.
The remaining cases are pending for want of receipt of
requisite papers from the concerned Depositors.

As such, out of a principal amount of Rs. 579.92 Crore
in deposits in the FDs, an amount of Rs. 50.79 Crore
stands refunded in terms of orders issued by the Hon''ble
Supreme Court from time to time.

Reconciliation of InDut Credit Receivable

Input credit receivable (GST) of Rs. 63,26.91 lakhs
is subject to reconciliation with the balance of input
credit claimable from GST department (in GST portal).
In view of absence of the reconciliation, we are unable
to express an opinion on the consequential impact of
same on Audited Standalone Financial Statements.

Due to various litigations, notices from GST Department,
non-availability of old data/ records and non¬
compliances during the period of erstwhile management,
cancellations and restorations of various GST Numbers
and other complex issues, there are serious difficulties in
completing the reconciliation process.

Despite various challenges, the Reconciliation Process
has been initiated during FY 2024-25. The Input Tax
Credit is being claimed in GSTR-3B on monthly basis as
per GSTR-2B and the reconciliation will be completed at
the time of filing of Annual Return.

Balance Confirmations on Loans from Lenders
In view of the instances of non-compliance with
certain debt covenants including interest & principal
repayment defaults, we would like to draw attention
to the fact that the Company has not obtained
the balance confirmations on loans from lenders
(including non-convertible debentures) amounting
to Rs. 10,088,38.71 lakhs (including interest accrued
of Rs. 6,645,97.71 lakhs). In the absence of adequate
and sufficient audit evidence to establish the amounts
payable to the lenders, we are unable to express an
opinion on the correctness of these amounts reflected
in the standalone financial statement and also on their
consequential impact including potential tax liabilities.
(refer Note 9 of the Audited Standalone Financial
Results).

The total financial liability of Unitech Group has been
captured in Annexure C of the Resolution Framework
(RF) submitted before the Hon''ble Supreme Court.

A total of 19 lenders, including Banks and ARCs have
filed 65 cases in various DRTs, namely, New Delhi (DRT-
1), Chandigarh, Chennai, Kolkata, Mumbai, Lucknow
and Allahabad. In view of the moratorium granted by
the Hon''ble Supreme Court, all these cases have been
ordered to be adjourned sine die.

Various lenders have also filed IAs in the Hon''ble
Supreme Court, which are pending consideration. Since
the matter has already been covered in the Resolution
Framework, the determination and final payment of
principal amount and/ or interest thereon shall be made
only in accordance with the decision of the Hon''ble
Supreme Court in this behalf. However, the Hon''ble
Supreme Court vide its order dated 16.01.2025 has asked
the applicant-banks/ financial institutions to engage in
dialogue with the Management of Unitech Limited and
explore the possibility of One Time Settlement (''OTS'') in
furtherance of the interest of the parties.

The company is providing for interest payable to Banks/
Financial Institutions based on the loan statements to
the extent available and the balances are matching
with statements. As far as process of confirmation of
balances is concerned, it is stated that as per Standards
on Auditing (SA)-505, prescribed by the Institute of
Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI), the process of
external confirmation is to be initiated by the Statutory
Auditors for directly obtaining the evidence from the
confirming parties at their level.

Revenue from Real Estate Projects (IND AS 115)

We draw attention to Note no. 6(vii) of the Audited
Standalone Financial Results, stating that the Company
is accounting for revenue under real estate projects
using percentage of completion method (POCM)
with an understanding that performance obligations
are satisfied over time whereas, the terms of the
agreements entered by the Company with buyers of
the property does not satisfy the conditions specified
in paragraph 35 of Indian Accounting Standard 115
"Revenue from contracts with customers" in all the
cases.

(i) The Company recognizes revenue over time if one
of the following criteria of Paragraph 35 of Ind AS
115 is met, particularly 35 (c), 36 and 37, as given
below:

(a) Paragraph 35 (c): the entity''s performance
does not create an asset with an alternative
use to the entity (paragraph 36) and the entity
has an enforceable right to payment for
performance completed to date (paragraph
37).

(b) Paragraph 36: An asset created by an
entity''s performance does not have an
alternative use to an entity if the entity is
either restricted contractually from readily
directing the asset for another use during
the creation or enhancement of that asset or
limited practically from readily directing the
asset in its completed state for another use.
The assessment of whether an asset has an
alternative use to the entity is made at contract
inception.

After contract inception, an entity shall
not update the assessment of the alternative
use of an asset unless the parties to the
contract approve a contract modification
that substantively changes the performance
obligation.

(c) Paragraph 37:- An entity shall consider the
terms of the contract, as well as any laws that
apply to the contract, when evaluating whether
it has an enforceable right to payment for
performance completed to date in accordance
with paragraph 35(c). The right to payment for
performance completed to date does not need
to be for a fixed amount. However, at all times
throughout the duration of the contract, the
entity must be entitled to an amount that at
least compensates the entity for performance
completed to date if the contract is terminated
by the customer or another party for reasons
other than the entity''s failure to perform as
promised.

(ii) Following points are also considered by the
company at the time of Revenue Recognition under
POCM:

(a) The company has an enforceable right
to claim the payment from Customer for
performance completed which has been
agreed by customers in the Agreements to
Sell (Builders-Buyer Agreements).

Sr. No.

Auditor''s Qualifications

Management''s Response

(b) The Company cannot change or substitute
the residential/ commercial unit specified in
the Builder-Buyer Agreement ("The contract")
entered with the customer, and thus the
customer could enforce his/ her rights to the
residential/ commercial unit if the Company
sought to direct the asset for another use.
In the opinion of the Management of the
Company, the contractual restriction is
substantive, and the real estate unit does not
have an alternative use to the Company.

(c) Further, the Company has the right to claim
the instalments of the Residential/ Commercial
properties from the buyers based on the
milestones given in Builder-Buyer Agreement
and in case of defaults by the customers, the
said unit is not freely transferrable to another
customer. The unit is not available for alternate
use of the Company until cancelled.

(d) In certain cases, buyers of the property have
availed bank finance against the property
purchased by them and the Company has
entered into the "Tripartite Agreement". Under
this arrangement, the Company has given all
original documents to the Bank. It indicates
that the Company is not having any alternate
use of the property sold to the buyer and
the buyers have full right over the property
purchased from the Company till the time, the
buyers commit any breach towards the bank
and/ or does not repay its dues to the Bank
in full or in part and/ or the buyers commit
breach of agreement with the Company.

(iii) Customer i.e. buyer of the unit is the beneficial
owner of the unit purchased from the Company
and is entitled to avail the loan from Banks. In the
event of defaults by Customer in repayment of any
instalment, the Company has the right to cancel the
allotment and forfeit the entire amount of Earnest
Money deposited by the allottee and the allottee
shall be left with no right or lien on said property
and the developer i.e. Company shall be free to sell
the same to any other person in its sole discretion
as it may deem fit.

In the opinion of the Company, customer i.e.
buyer of the unit is the beneficial owner of the
unit purchased till the time of cancellation of the
allotment of the unit on account of defaults in
repayment schedule of the installments agreed in
Builder Buyer''s agreement.

(iv) We have relied on the clarification issued by ICAI
on 20th July 2018 w.r.t. Revenue from Contracts in
context of Real Estate Sector wherein it was clarified
that Ind AS 115 does allow recognition of revenue
using Percentage of Completion Method (POCM).

(v) Prior to FY 2020-21, there was no qualification on
revenue recognition under POCM by the earlier
statutory auditor.

Reconciliation of advance received from Homebuyers
Reconciliation of sub-ledger records for advance
received from homebuyers and trade receivables is in
progress. In view of absence of the reconciliation, we
are unable to express an opinion on the consequential
impact of same on Audited Standalone Financial
Statements.

The Commercial Division and the IT Division have
complete data available on the amount received from
the customers and the balance receivables from them
in respect of each of the units sold. As a matter of fact,
the customers are also being allowed access to their
individual Accounts Ledgers in a phased manner as the
management raises demands for balance payments
on an ongoing basis as per the Revised Payment Plan
approved by the Hon''ble Supreme Court.

As a step towards Reconciliation, the Management is
getting about all the 16,000 odd files audited and the
assignment has already been given to a professional
firm. Once the scrutiny of files is completed, the issue of
reconciliation can be addressed. It is a time-consuming
exercise and the reconciliation process will be initiated
in a phased manner as soon as the audited details are
completed and made available. As a matter of fact, the
exercise has already been completed in respect of three
Projects and the required corrections simultaneously
being made in the customer database.

13.(b)

PIP Reconciliation:

Other Current Assets includes "Amount incurred
in project in progress (on which revenue is not
recognized)" amounting Rs. 9159,03.18 lakhs. No
provision has been for onerous project, if any. As
explained to us the Company is in the process of
identifying onerous project and provision shall be
created after identification of such contracts.

There are about 17,700 homebuyers across 74 residential
and 10 commercial projects where construction had
been lying stalled/ at various stages of constructions.
These units are to be completed and handed over to the
homebuyers. The entire exercise is being carried out
under the overall guidance and supervision of the Hon''ble
Supreme Court. As such, the Management will be in a
position to assess the impact thereof only in due course
of time after the Projects are completed and handed over.

Moreover, the Company is in the process of identification
of onerous projects, based on the Lease Deeds/ Licenses
of the various projects covered under One Particular
License/ Lease Deed. The company is hopeful to sell
unsold properties at current market value, which would
cover substantial portion of the deficit of onerous projects
by the surplus projects covered under one Lease Deed/
License.

There are certain projects wherein physical
possession of the units has already been handed over
to the homebuyers but the projects are still appearing
under Project in Progress. Due to aforesaid, project
in progress and Advance received from customers
is overstated. The management is in the process of
estimating the impact of the same. Due to the absence
of the details, we are unable to express an opinion
on the accuracy of project in progress and Advance
received from customers and its consequential impact
on standalone financial results.

Due to the above-mentioned reasons, we are unable
to express an opinion on its consequential impact on
the standalone financial results.

Physical Verification of its Property, Plant and

The Company has initiated a series of steps for getting
the physical verification done through the Company''s
existing staff. Although a substantial portion of physical
verification has been covered, the reconciliation
part, however, remains pending, which is likely to
be completed in the next about 6 months'' time. It is
submitted that after the reconciliation part is completed,
the physical verification on year-end basis in future
would be conducted regularly to have proper control and
to address the observations of the Statutory Auditors.

Equipment (PPE)

We draw attention to note no 6(iii), the Company has
conducted physical verification of its property plant
and equipment & unsold flats and the reconciliation
of the same with books of accounts is in progress.
In absence of the reconciliation, we are unable to
comment upon the discrepancy between book records
and physical counts, if any and its consequential
impact of the financial results.

15.

Impact of Litigations

We draw attention to note 20(l) of standalone financial
results which states that the Company has 2041
litigations pending in Hon''ble Supreme Court of India.
Based on the explanation provided by the Company,
considering the number of litigations pending, it is not
possible for the Company to compute the possible
impact of the same. In view of above, we are unable
to express an opinion on the accounting of potential
liability on account of pending cases and completeness
of disclosure of contingent liability made by the
company in the standalone financial statements.

The financial impact of litigations can be ascertained
only after the final verdict is pronounced by the Hon''ble
Supreme Court/ various forums on all the litigations.

in the Central Record Room at Gurugram.

(ii) The issue of reconciliation of land parcels between
the Land Division and the Accounts Division has been

The State of the Company''s Affairs

1. The Members are informed that the Company has a
total of 74 incomplete residential and 10 commercial
projects at 11 pan-India locations in 7 states. The
Management has initiated the construction activities
in 51 residential and commercial projects. In case
of all other projects, the requisite pre-construction
processes and statutory approvals are under process,
some of which are pending directions from the Hon''ble
Supreme Court.

2. One major cluster of projects is at Gurugram (Haryana)
accounting for about 7,000 Homebuyers in various
projects. The Management has been able to obtain the
requisite approvals (like renewal of licences, additional
licenses, approval of layout and zoning plans, building
plans and Occupation Certificates) from the Department
of Town & Country Planning, Haryana in respect of
majority of these projects from time to time. The issue
of renewal of License in respect of the Rewari Project
is still pending consideration of the Hon''ble Supreme
Court.

The Environmental Clearance in respect of only one
project in Gurugram (Uniworld Resorts) is still under

process due to the non-constitution of the State
Expert Appraisal Committee (SEAC) and the State
Environment Impact Assessment Authority (SEIAA) by
the State Government of Haryana. It is pertinent to note
that the works at a number of projects in Gurugram,
Ambala and Mohali have already commenced on the
ground.

3. The Projects at Kolkata, Chennai and Bengaluru have
not been able to take off due to pendency of grant
of approvals of the competent authorities qua the
Layout Plans, Building Pans and the ECs in case of
these projects even though contracts have already
been awarded for certain parts of these projects.
The Management is vigorously following up with the
respective State Authorities in this respect. In case of
Kolkata Project, however, the bottleneck with respect
to the approval of Plantation Plan, which is a kind of
NoC and is held-up for a long time. Likewise, the grant
of Environment Clearance (EC) is also held up with the
SEAC/ SEIAA. The Management now plans to place
the matter before Hon''ble Supreme Court for required
directions to the concerned authorities.

4. In the case of Noida based projects, which account
for the second largest cluster of Homebuyers after
Gurugram, there have been significant developments.
In compliance of the directions of the Hon''ble Supreme
Court dated 01.02.2023, the new Management of
Unitech Group uploaded the Revised Layout Plans
in respect of Sector 96-97-98, Noida on OBPAS (the
designated portal of Noida Authority) on 08.02.2023.
Similarly, revised building plans in respect of the project
at Sector-113, Noida were uploaded on 08.02.2023. The
Revised Building Plans in respect of Sector-117, Noida
were submitted vide application No. 2023/02/08/8434.
Despite having obtained the clearances required prior
to the approval of the Building Plans, Noida Authority
was reluctant to approve the Layout Plan/ Building Plan
in respect of Noida-based projects. As such, the matter
was referred to the Hon''ble Supreme Court once again.
The same was deliberated upon by the Hon''ble Court
in its various hearings held on 09.10.2023, 03.11.2023
and 12.04.2024. Further, after the final direction was
issued by the Hon''ble Court on 26.04.2024, the Layout
Plans and Building Plans were approved/ re-validated
in respect of parts of the projects on 30.05.2024 by
the Noida Authority. Thereafter, the Environment
Clearance (EC), Consent to Establish (CTE) and other
statutory clearances were also obtained from the
respective Competent Authorities. This has helped the
Company to commence work on all the three projects
qua the areas already sold to the Homebuyers. It is
apprised that the Unitech Management made a further
submission before the Hon''ble Supreme Court for

approval of plans for the balance area of the project
land vide IA No. 241599/ 2024. The matter was heard
by the Apex Court and has directed the Noida Authority
to approve the pending Layout Plans/ Building Plans
in respect of the Noida-based projects vide its order
dated 21.05.2025. Accordingly, a representation was
submitted to the Noida Authority on 02.06.2025 and the
said matter remains under consideration by the Noida

5. During the year under review, the matter of sale of
Unitech Power Transmission Limited (UPTL) was also
under consideration. As informed to the Members
earlier also, since the value offered by M/s Jakson
Limited was found to be the highest among all the
bidders, it was allowed to conduct Due Diligence as
per the process note prepared by E&Y in consultation
with UPTL to facilitate the highest bidder to submit its
Binding Offer on or before 17.06.2023. Eventually, the
Binding Term Sheet for an amount of Rs. 65 Crore was
received on 17.06.2023, along with a BG of Rs. 1.00
Crore. The highest bidder had subsequently agreed
to improve its offer to Rs. 67.00 Crore. The Board had
approved the proposal by Circulation on 11.08.2023.
However, the said transaction could not materialize as
M/s Jakson delayed the process and finally offered a
price of Rs. 47.50 crore, which was not acceptable to
the Company. Finally, they backed out from the deal.
Thereafter, the Management started exploring other
Investors and sought Expressions of Interest during
the FY 2024-25. Subsequent thereto, after the exit
of M/s Jakson Limited from the acquisition of UPTL,
two new Bidders, namely (i) M/s R&C Infraengineers
Private Limited, and (ii) M/s Auro Infra Private Limited
approached the Management and showed interest
in acquisition of 100% equity stake of UPTL. Since
the bid received from M/s Auro Infra Private Limited
(AIPL) was on the higher side i.e. Rs. 50.89 Crore, the
BoD of M/s Unitech Limited in its meeting held on
26.06.2024 approved the proposal for 100% equity
disinvestment of UPTL, at the negotiated price of Rs.
50.89 Crore on "as-is-where-is" basis in favour of M/s
Auro Infra Private Limited be subject to final approval
of the Hon''ble Supreme Court. Thereafter, the BoD of
M/s Unitech Limited in its meeting held on 08.08.2024
decided for going public by using the Swiss Challenge
Route so that by the time the Management submitted
its proposal for disinvestment of UPTL before the
Hon''ble Supreme Court, it would have already
exhausted the Swiss Challenge route also. Subsequent

thereto, the approval of the BoD of M/s Unitech Limited
was accorded on 13.09.2024 for the 100% equity
disinvestment of M/s Unitech Power Transmission
Limited (UPTL) at a price of Rs. 50.89 Crore on "as-
is-where-is-whatever-is-basis", in favour of M/s Auro
Infra Private Limited, pursuant to the Swiss Challenge
Method and subject to final approval of the Hon''ble
Supreme Court. Further thereto, an IA (No. 229159 of
2024) was filed on 30.09.2024 in the Hon''ble Supreme
Court, seeking its approval for the disinvestment of
UPTL to M/s Auro Infra Private Limited. The Hon''ble
Supreme Court approved the disinvestment of UPTL
vide its order dated 11.12.2024. Subsequently, the BoD
of M/s Unitech Limited in its meeting held on 17.01.2025
approved the proposal for 100% equity disinvestment
of M/s Unitech Power Transmission Limited (UPTL), at
a price of Rs. 50.89 Crore on "as-is-where-is-whatever-
is" basis, in favour of M/s Auro Infra Private Limited,
pursuant to the approval of the Hon''ble Supreme
Court vide its order dated 11.12.2024. The BoD in the
aforesaid meeting also approved the sale of the entire
shareholding of the Company in M/s Unitech Power
Transmission Limited, in favour of M/s Auro Infra
Private Limited, on such terms and conditions as set
out in the Share Purchase Agreement. In furtherance
thereto, the Share Purchase Agreement amongst M/s
Unitech Limited, six (06) subsidiary companies (holding
10 shares each jointly with M/s Unitech Limited), M/s
Unitech Power Transmission Limited and M/s Auro
Infra Private Limited was executed on 11.03.2025. The
consideration amount of Rs. 50.89 Crore has also been
received from M/s Auro Infra Private Limited via RTGS
on 11.03.2025 in the Pool Account of M/s Unitech
Limited and 100% equity shareholding of Unitech
Limited in UPTL has been transferred in favour of M/s
Auro Infra Private Limited on 13.03.2025. Further, AIPL
is now taking care of all the existing projects of UPTL
in line with the provisions contained in the SPA dated

supervision. Based on the ground-work done by PMCs,
it was estimated that about 130-135 Tenders would
be required to be floated for completion of all the 74
residential and 12 commercial projects. Since, it was

go, the Management decided to float these Tenders

court vide ATR-IV. As the Members are already aware,
the Unitech Management after seeking the approval of

Court for seeking their approval for awarding the
Contracts to successful Bidders. The Hon''ble Supreme
Court permitted the Unitech Management to award
contracts in respect of 49 (15 34) Tenders qua Lot-1
& Lot-2 on 03.11.2023. In furtherance to the aforesaid

website on 04.11.2023 and issued Letters of Intent
(LoIs) to all the 23 Contractors to whom 49 Tenders of

were finalized/ approved to be awarded as part of Lot-5
in the meeting of the BoD held on 03.04.2025, subject
to the approval by Justice (Retd.) A.M. Sapre and the
Hon''ble Supreme Court. Justice (Retd.) A.M. Sapre
recommended the award of the aforesaid Tenders on

7. Separately, keeping in view that the works on various
structures of buildings left incomplete by the erstwhile
management had been lying stalled for a number of
years, it was decided to get Health Safety Audit of all
these buildings carried out from institutes of eminence.

The Hon''ble Supreme Court was also apprised about
the same through Action Taken report - III. Services
of IIT Roorkee were availed for this purpose for all
the under-construction buildings within NCR area, IIT
Madras for the projects at Bangalore and Chennai, and

process, the Heath Safety Audit and proof-checking
of structure designs of a total of 179 Towers and 13

Operating Environment

The operating environment this year continued to remain challenging.

Aggressive monetary tightening measures from Central Banks worldwide led to further pressure on emerging economies. The widespread inflation posed major challenges specifically with prices of several commodities inflating to their decadal highs. There was, however, a normalization in economic activities after a couple of years of Covid induced disruptions.

Management's Response

(i)    Unitech Limited ("the Company") held its annual general meeting for last 2 years with delays. The company had not applied for any extension for these annual general meeting to the Registrar of Companies, NCT of Delhi & Haryana and is in the process of estimation of penalty and other implications due to delay in holding of annual general meeting.

(ii)    Further, the Company also delayed in filing of its quarterly and annual/year to date results with Security and Exchange Board of India "SEBI". The Company has not taken any provision related to penalty on account of such delay and management is now planning to seek relief against such penalty from SEBI.

(iii)    We had given a disclaimer of opinion on the standalone financial statements for the year ended 31st March, 2022 in respect of this matter.

(i)    The Annual General Meeting (AGM) for the year ended 31st March, 2022 was due to be held latest by 30th September, 2022. However, the AGM for the FY 2021-22 was held on 31.03.2023. The new management did not have access to complete records of various transactions of the Company. It caused delay in the finalization of accounts and convening of Annual General Meeting. The new Management has inherited several legacies under various provisions of law, including noncompliances related to non-holding of Annual General Meeting of Unitech Limited on or before the due dates. Ever since the new Management took control of Unitech Group as whole, it has been endeavoring to make the Group compliant in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 and rules made thereunder and other applicable laws.

(ii)    The Company has scheduled its Annual General Meeting for the FY 2022-23 on 29th September 2023, which is well within the prescribed time-lines.

(iii)    The Management had taken up the issue of seeking exemptions and waiver of penalties from MCA as well as SEBI vide its letters dated 11.06.2020,

29.07.2020    and 27.08.2020 and had also sought the intervention of Secretary MCA to take up the matter with SEBI. The Secretary MCA also took up the matter with Chairman SEBI vide his letter dated 05.08.2020. SEBI responded vide its letter dated 09.09.2020 informing that the BSE and NSE had examined the issue in view of moratorium granted by the Hon'ble Supreme Court and the notice for suspension of trading of securities had been withdrawn. Finding that there was no positive response on waiver of penalties, the Management filed an IA No. 81660 of 2021 and 81663 of 2021 on

16.07.2021    in the Supreme Court seeking requisite reliefs, which is still pending. The above defaults on the part of the Company were also placed before the Hon'ble Supreme Court in the Action Taken Report-III filed on 28.03.2022

(i)    We have made references to the Resolution Framework (RF) for Unitech group which has been prepared under the directions of the Board of Directors of Unitech Limited appointed by the Central Government pursuant to the afore-said order of the Hon'ble Supreme Court and approved by the Board of Directors in their Meeting held on June 17, 2020/ September 10, 2020/ October 28, 2020/ April 27, 2022 and which has been filed with the Hon'ble Supreme Court. Through RF, the company has requested the Hon'ble Supreme Court to grant some concessions and reliefs so that the company is able to fulfil its obligations towards the construction of the projects and meet other liabilities.

(ii)    As the RF has not yet been approved by the Hon'ble Supreme Court, the impact of the proposed reliefs, concessions etc. have not been considered in the books of accounts.

(iii)    We had given a disclaimer of opinion on the standalone financial statements for the year ended 31 st March, 2022 in respect of this matter.

The points mentioned herein are informatory in nature and the Management has no further comments to offer on the same.

3.

Material uncertainty related to aoina concern

(i)    Management has represented that the Standalone Financial Statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, notwithstanding the fact that the Company has incurred losses and has challenges in meeting its operational obligations, servicing its current liabilities including bank loans and public deposits. The Company also has various litigation matters which are pending before different forums, and various projects of the Company have stalled/ slowed down.

(ii)    These conditions indicate the existence of material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The appropriateness of assumption of going concern is critically dependent upon the Company's ability to raise finance and generate cash flows in future to meet its obligations, and also on the final decision of the Hon'ble Supreme Court on the Resolution Framework. Also, the Board of Directors are exploring various possible options for completion of ongoing projects and are trying to generate additional possible revenues by construction of new flats. This activity is getting conducted under supervision of Justice Abhay Manohar Sapre, as appointed by Hon'ble Supreme Court of India.

(iii)    We had given a disclaimer of opinion on the standalone financial statements for the year ended 31 st March, 2022 in respect of this matter.

The Management has already stated its position in the Resolution Framework submitted in the Hon'ble Supreme Court on 15.07.2020, followed by updated versions submitted on 05.02.2021 and 08.08.2022, wherein the Hon'ble Supreme Court has been prayed to grant certain concessions and reliefs so that the Company is able to fulfil its obligations towards the construction and completion of projects and meet other liabilities. The reasons for opting against the winding up the Company or its reference under IBC have fully been explained in the application filed for submission of the Resolution Framework.

(i)    The Company had received a 'cancellation of lease deed' notice from Greater Noida Industrial Development Authority ("GNIDA") dated 18th November 2015. As per the Notice, GNIDA cancelled the lease deed in respect of Residential/ Group Housing plots on account of nonimplementation of the project and non-payment of various dues amounting to Rs. 105,483.26 Lakhs. The said land is also mortgaged and the Company has registered such mortgage to a third party on behalf of lender for the Non-Convertible Debenture (NCD) facility extended to the Company and, due to default in repayment of these NCDs, the debenture holders have served a notice to the Company under section 13(4) of the SARFAESI Act and have also taken notional possession of this land. The Company had contractually entered into agreements to sell with 352 buyers and has also received advances from such buyers amounting to Rs. 6,682.10 Lakhs (net of repayment). No contract revenue has been recognized on this project.

(ii)    GNIDA has, in the meanwhile, in terms of the Order of the Hon'ble Supreme Court dated 18.09.2018, deposited on behalf of the Company, an amount of Rs. 7,436.35 Lakhs (Rs. 6,682.10 Lakhs and interest @ 6% on the principal amount of Rs. 6,682.10 Lakhs), out of the monies paid by the Company, with the registry of the Hon'ble Supreme Court.

(iii)    GNIDA has adjusted Rs. 9,200.00 Lakhs of Unitech Group's liabilities towards the Company's other projects with GNIDA and forfeited Rs. 13,893.42 Lakhs. The Company had paid a sum of Rs. 34,221.90 Lakhs, including Rs. 4,934.95 Lakhs of stamp duty on the land, for the said land.

(iv)    The matter in respect of the land is still pending before the Hon'ble High Court of Allahabad, and pending the final disposal, the Company has, subsequently, shown the amount of Rs. 18,339.80 Lakhs as recoverable from GNIDA in its books of accounts including stamp duty of Rs. 4,934.95 Lakhs and lease rent paid of Rs. 6,113.11 Lakhs. Further, the Company is also carrying

(a) Other construction costs amounting to Rs. 80,575.05 Lakhs in respect of the projects to come upon the said land which also includes interest capitalized of Rs. 69,684.68 Lakhs.

(i)    The matter is still pending in the Hon'ble High Court of Allahabad for final disposal. The Management is hopeful that its stand shall be vindicated in the Hon'ble Court and there shall be no adverse impact, other than the one already disclosed.

(ii)    As regards the amount of Rs. 7,436.35 lakhs (Rs. 6,682.10 lakhs + interest @ 6% on the principal amount of Rs. 6,682.10 lakhs), deposited with the Registry of the Hon'ble Supreme Court, the said amount has already been paid to 352 homebuyers pursuant to the directions of Hon'ble Supreme Court, which is a bit more than the principal amount deposited by the said homebuyers.

(iii)    Further, the Management is also in the process of filing a comprehensive IA before the Hon'ble Supreme Court qua GNIDA's demands raised against Unitech, including seeking appropriate directions on the instant issue.

(b) Deferred liability on account of interest payable to GNIDA appearing in the books of accounts as on 31st March, 2022 amounting to Rs. 3,72,777.42 Lakhs (including Rs. 52,220.54 Lakhs booked on account of interest during the year ended 31st March, 2023). Out of the interest mentioned above Rs. 4,846.67 Lakhs has been capitalized in the books of accounts of the Company. The same is in contravention of the provisions of Indian Accounting Standards 23 "Borrowing Costs".

(v) The impact on the accounts viz. inventory, projects in progress, customer advances, amount payable to or receivable from GNIDA, cannot be ascertained, since the matter is still subjudice, as mentioned hereinabove, vis-a-vis dues of the Company, and hence, we are unable to express an opinion on this matter.

We had given a disclaimer of opinion on the standalone financial statements for the year ended 31st March, 2022 in respect of this matter.

(i)    Confirmations/ reconciliations are pending in respect of amounts deposited by the Company with the Hon'ble Supreme Court. As per books of account, an amount of Rs. 31,191.85 Lakhs deposited with the Hon'ble Supreme Court Registry ("Registry") is outstanding as at 31 st March, 2023. Management has received certain details of payments made and monies received in the registry from the Court and has accrued the same in its books of accounts. However, there are still variations of Rs. 934.15 Lakhs between balance as per books of accounts vs balance as per registry details and management is in the process of reconciliation of the same.

(ii)    Further, for the payments made from its registry, there was no deduction made on account of tax at source and no goods and services tax liability, wherever applicable on reverse charge basis have been complied with.

(iii)    In view of the reconciliation exercise still in process and absence of other statement of transactions and confirmation of balance from the Registry, we are unable to comment on the completeness and correctness of amounts outstanding with the Registry and of the ultimate impact these transactions would have on the Standalone Financial Statements of the Company, and hence we are unable to express an opinion on this matter.

(iv)    We had given a disclaimer of opinion on the standalone financial statements for the year ended 31 st March, 2022 in respect of this matter.

(i)    The observation is a statement of fact and needs no further comments.

(ii)    The Company received a detailed statement of accounts from the Supreme Court's Registry in the month of November, 2022. After reconciliation of the accounts, entries pertaining to (a) interest income of Rs. 4,980.00 lakhs upto 22.11.2022, (b) disbursement of Rs. 2,734.11 lakhs, out of 4,000 lakhs deposited in the Supreme Court's Registry by M/s Pioneer Urban Land & Infrastructure Limited, and (c) disbursement of Rs. 2,183.45 lakhs to homebuyers, FD holders and other stakeholders, have been duly entered in the books of accounts for the period ending 31.03.2023.

(iii)    Further, during reconciliation, variations amounting to Rs. 934.15 lakhs have been observed between Balance as per books of accounts vis-a-vis Balance as per Supreme Court's Registry, which is proposed to be taken up with the Supreme Court Registry and reconciled as soon as the relevant information is received from the Registry.

(iv)    As regards the TDS on the payments made from the Registry or the TDS by the Bank on the accrued interest, the Registry has not provided any information. This will have to be verified from the Supreme Court Registry. In any case, prima facie, there should be no liabilities/ penalties on this account qua the Company as the default, if any, would be on the part of the Bank or the Supreme Court Registry.

According to information given and explanation provided to us by the management, in respect of Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE) including Investment Property having net value of Rs. 2,996.56 Lakhs (net of accumulated depreciation of Rs. 7,527.88 Lakhs), there is no physical verification conducted by the Company since last year. Further, the Company does not maintain proper records showing full particulars, including quantitative details and situation of Fixed Assets comprising 'property, plant and equipment, 'capital work-in-progress' & 'investment property''. In view of this and also of the fact that these PPE's are kept as security for obtaining bank loans and all the loan accounts of the Company (except loan obtained from Punjab National Bank) are at non performing levels, we are not able to express an opinion on this matter.

We had given a disclaimer of opinion on the standalone financial statements for the year ended 31st March, 2022 in respect of this matter.

The Company has maintained the Fixed Assets Register for recording the details of Property, Plant & Equipments. The management is facing a major challenge in reconciling the Opening Balances, which is a legacy issue and difficult to reconcile. However, it is proposed to take up this exercise to prepare separate lists of PPE where the reconciliation of Opening Balance remains an issue. The challenges faced in reconciliation of the Opening Balances, wherever occurring, will be addressed separately.

(ii)    For 149 Indian Subsidiary Companies, Statutory Auditors have been appointed so far whereas the due process for settlement of accounts with the existing Statutory Auditors in case of 16 other Subsidiaries is underway.

(iv)    The matter regarding investment in Carnoustie and CIG is already under scrutiny by the Investigating Agencies and various attachment orders have been passed by the Enforcement Directorate. The Management has included the position of Carnoustie and CIG in the Resolution Framework submitted before the Hon'ble Supreme Court. It is pertinent to mention here that Unitech Limited has also filed an IA in the Hon'ble Supreme Court for the recovery of the amount invested. The matter has been heard but the order is awaited.

(v)    However, keeping in view the investigations being carried out by the ED, and the ED having filed charge-sheets before the Adjudicating Authority under PMLA, the Company is left with no option but to await the final outcome in these matters.

Considering the fact that the accounts of the above-mentioned foreign entities are not available with the management and for Indian entities, they are not audited since last 3-4 years plus also taking into account the factors such as non-existence of any loan agreement stating terms, conditions and duration of loan, accumulated losses in above said entities, substantial/ full erosion of net worth, significant uncertainty on the future of these entities and significant uncertainty on recovery of investments and loans, there are strong indicators of conducting impairment/ expected credit loss assessment for above mentioned investments and loans in accordance with the principles of Indian Accounting Standards 36, "impairment of assets" and Indian Accounting Standards 109 "financial instruments".

Further: -

(i) Equity investment - others include investment made in M/s Carnoustie Management (India) Private Limited (Carnoustie) of Rs. 31,005.45 Lakhs as on 31st March, 2023. Regarding this investment, the Company has already filed an Intervention Application "IA" before Hon'ble Supreme Court of India wherein, the Company has stated that erstwhile management has invested in equity shares of Carnoustie @ Rs. 1,000 - Rs. 1,500 per share including a premium of Rs. 990 - Rs. 1,490 per share. As per IA submitted by the Company, there was no basis available with erstwhile management for such share valuation. Also, there were certain plots allotted to Carnoustie at a price much lower than the market rate as on allotment date. Considering the nature of this investment, same is to be valued at fair value through other comprehensive income "FVTOCI" as required under Indian Accounting Standards 109 "financial instruments" but the Company has decided to carry investment made in Carnoustie at cost as the matter is subjudice.

(ii) Investment - CIG - The Company made investment of Rs. 25,453.18 Lakhs in CIG Realty Fund for which no details are available with the Company. As explained by management, the Company is planning to file a separate Intervention Application "IA" before Hon'ble Supreme Court of India requesting Hon'ble Court to take up this matter. Management also explained that CIG funds are already under investigation by Enforcement Directorate (ED) and Serious Fraud Investigation Office (SFIO). Considering the nature of this investment, same is to be valued at fair value through other comprehensive income "FVTOCI" as required under Indian Accounting Standards 109 "financial instruments" but the Company has decided to carry investment made in CIG funds at cost as the matter is under investigation by various authorities.

In view of non-existence of any impairment study, non-existence of any expected credit loss policy in the Company and accounting of investment at cost which were otherwise to be carried at FVTOCI, we are unable to express an opinion upon the adjustments, if any, that may be required to the carrying value of these non-current investments and non-current loan and its consequential impact on the Standalone Financial Statement.

Further, the Company and the promoters have also given various kinds of Guarantees, including Bank Guarantees and Corporate Guarantees, the lists whereof (to the extent of availability of records), surviving or matured, have been shared with the Statutory Auditors. However, it may not be possible to vouchsafe at this stage that these are the only Guarantees given by the Company.

(ii)    The issues pertaining to secured, unsecured and operational creditors have been covered in Chapter-3 of the Resolution Framework (RF). Apart from seeking various reliefs and concessions qua such creditors, the RF also contains a provision on invitation of Claims and settlement thereof (3.2). These issues have yet not been adjudicated by the Hon'ble Supreme Court.

Inventory and oroject in oroaress

(i)    Standalone Financial Statement of the Company as on 31st March, 2023, has shown inventory of Rs. 62,517.96 Lakhs and projects in progress "PIP" of Rs. 17,56,942.48 Lakhs. Company is currently carrying these inventory and PIP items at cost, which is computed based on percentage of completion method under Indian Accounting Standard 115 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers". In view of the fact that in majority of the projects of the Company, construction and other operational activities are on hold since last 24-60 months, there are high indicators that such inventory and PIP assets should be tested for evaluating their respective net realized value "NRV" in accordance with the requirement of Indian Accounting Standard 2 "inventories".

(ii)    Further, management is in the process of verification of title documents for land and other immovable assets.

(iii)    As per the explanation provided by the management, pursuant to the approval of Hon'ble Supreme Court of India, Project Management Consultants (PMCs) have been appointed for the projects for estimation of work done till date, cost to be incurred further to complete the projects and to provide applicable completion timelines. These PMCs have also conducted actual physical assessment of the projects and submitted their reports. Management was earlier of the view that NRV assessment of inventory and PIP can be made only after the appointed PMCs complete their assessment of respective projects and submit their final reports but the same is still awaited.

(iv)    Further, the Company has during the year capitalized expenses to the tune of Rs. 11,249.80 Lakhs as construction expenses (including interest expense of Rs. 6,154.51 Lakhs). The same is in contravention of the provisions of Indian Accounting Standard 16 "Property plant and equipment" and Indian Accounting Standard 23 "Borrowing cost" as construction activity for all the projects is stalled since last 4-5 years. This has resulted in understatement of current year loss by above said amount.

(i)    Five Project Management Consultants (PMCs) have been engaged, with the approval of the Hon'ble Supreme Court, who have substantially completed Part-A of the Scope of Work assigned to them. This includes "As-is-assessment" of various projects i.e. the status of work done/ completed during the period of erstwhile management. The PMCs have backed their work with photographs and videography of these projects so as to avoid any conflicts when it comes to the claims of old contractors' vis-a-vis the work to be done by the new contractors. Based on this exercise, the PMCs have worked out the BoQs of the remaining works, which form the basis for preparation of Tender Documents.

(ii)    About 130 to 140 Tenders would need to be floated to complete the balance works, out of which 35 Tenders (Lot-1) were floated on 02.01.2023. On scrutiny of bids, it was discovered that no bids were received against 18 tenders (out of 35) whereas both the bids received in case of one tender failed to meet the eligibility criteria and both the bids received in respect of another tender were abnormally high, resulting in the rejection of bids for these 02 tenders. Thus, bids were required to be called afresh in respect of these 20 (18+1 + 1) tenders.

(iii)    In continuation thereto, 2nd Lot of 31 Tenders was prepared by the PMCs, which was duly reviewed by the EIL. Thus, a total of 51 Tenders (20 re-tenders of Lot-1 and 31 tenders of Lot-2) were approved by the BoD and Justice (Retd.) A. M. Sapre in the month of April 2023 for uploading the same on Unitech's e-Tendering web-portal. Accordingly, these tenders were uploaded on the Unitech's web-portal on 08/09.05.2023.

(iv)    The extended last date for submission of bids in respect of these 51 Tenders was 22.06.2023. On opening of Technical bids on 23.06.2023, it was discovered that no bids had been received in respect of 09 tenders. After completion of the process of evaluation of Technical and Financial bids, the management finalized the bids received qua 34 tenders. This has been approved by the Board of Directors, followed by Justice (Retd.) A.M. Sapre on 18.08.2023.

Also further, the Company, in its financial statements has bifurcated PIP under two headings - “Project in progress on which revenue is not recognized" and “Amount recoverable from project in progress (on which revenue is recognized)". We have not been provided with any basis on which this bifurcation is made.

In view of the absence of any NRV assessment by the management and absence of any physical verification report, capitalization of expenses and interest cost during the year, and absence of any basis of bifurcation of projects in financial statements, we are unable to express an opinion upon the existence and adjustments, if any, that may be required to the carrying value of these inventories and PIP and its consequential impact on the Standalone Financial Statements.

We had given a disclaimer of opinion on the standalone financial statements for the year ended 31st March, 2022 in respect of this matter.

(v) Projects in Progress (PIP) on which revenue is not recognized refers to those projects where no inventory is available for sale and only expenditure is to be made for the completion of residual works in such projects.

11.

External Confirmation

The Company has not initiated the process of external confirmation for outstanding balances of the following areas as on 31st March, 2023 are as follow:

(i)    It is stated that as per Standards on Auditing (SA)-505, prescribed by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI), the process of external confirmation is to be initiated by the Statutory Auditors for directly obtaining the evidence from the confirming parties at their level. However, the management would initiate this exercise now keeping the Statutory Auditors in loop for the with respect to outstanding balances as on 31.03.2023. It would, therefore, be appropriate that the Statutory Auditors take up external confirmations based on random sampling basis since obtaining confirmation from all the parties would be a timeconsuming exercise.

(ii)    As far as the liability of the Company towards the secured, unsecured or operational creditors is concerned, the same has been covered in Chapter-3 of the Resolution Framework (RF) submitted before the Hon'ble Supreme Court. The RF also contains a provision on the Process of Claim Settlement qua such creditors according to which the Company shall be inviting claims from all such stakeholders but it can be done only after a definitive view on the RF is taken by the Hon'ble Supreme Court.

Management's Response

 

Standalone Financial Statements, the Company has expressed its inability to send confirmation requests in respect of above-mentioned areas due to uncertainty about the amount receivable and payable appearing in the books of accounts, which are outstanding for significantly long periods of time. In view of non-existence of adequate supporting documents, we are unable to express an opinion upon completeness of the balances appearing in books of accounts of the Company.

We had given a disclaimer of opinion on the standalone financial statements for the year ended 31st March, 2022 in respect of this matter.

Bank confirmations

In respect to confirmation of bank balances, margin money balance and term deposits, the company has not sent confirmation requests to any of the banks. In view of non-existence of supporting evidence related to bank balances, we are unable to comment upon completeness of the balances appearing in books of accounts of the Company and adjustments, if any, that may be required to the books of accounts and its consequential impact on the Standalone Financial Statements.

With respect to the loans and borrowings taken by the Company amounting to Rs. 2,79,186.01 Lakhs as on 31st March, 2023, no confirmation has been received till date of this report. Interest expense on the said loans is accrued at a provisional rate of interest. Such provisional rate of interest is based on the details available with the Company regarding interest rates charged by banks/ financial institutions and the same are 4-5 years old. Further, the Company is also accruing penal interest in few of the loans. In view of these, we are unable to comment upon completeness of the balances appearing in books of accounts of the Company and adjustments, if any, that may be required to the books of accounts and its consequential impact on the Standalone Financial Statements.

Company is in the process of estimating impact of its contingent liabilities, which is subject to the decision of Hon'ble Supreme Court of India on proposed resolution framework submitted by the Company. In absence of the same, we are unable to express an opinion on the impact of such contingent liabilities on the Company.

We had given a disclaimer of opinion on the standalone financial statements for the year ended 31st March, 2022 in respect of this matter.

(i)    The new Management has already submitted its Resolution Framework (RF) before the Hon'ble Supreme Court, wherein the Company has sought various reliefs on account of penalties, interest liabilities etc., among others, due to be paid by the Company to the Statutory Authorities, Banks, Financial Institutions etc.

(ii)    Since a view on various reliefs sought in the RF is yet to be taken by the Hon'ble Supreme Court, it may not be feasible at this stage to assess the overall impact of its contingent liabilities.

Company has not appointed an internal auditor for the financial year 2020-21, 2021-22 and 2022-23 which is in contravention of the provisions of section 138 of the Companies Act, 2013 which mandates appointment of internal auditor for all listed companies.

We had given a disclaimer of opinion on the standalone financial statements for the year ended 31st March, 2022 in respect of this matter.

(i)    The erstwhile Management appointed M/s VPSJ & Company, Chartered Accountants, as Internal Auditors of the Company, in compliance of the decision taken in the meeting of the Board of Directors held on 14.09.2019.

(ii)    M/s VPSJ & Company, however, resigned on 14.02.2020 without conducting/ submitting any Internal Audit of the Company.

(iii)    The Company proposes to appoint new Internal Auditors in terms of section 138 of the Companies Act, 2013, read with rule 13 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014, which is expected to be finalized shortly.

The Company has not yet appointed a Chief Financial Officer and the prescribed time period under section 203 of the Companies Act, 2013 has already expired. Further the Company has not filed any application with Ministry of Corporate Affairs for compounding of the said offence. We had given a disclaimer of opinion on the standalone financial statements for the year ended 31st March, 2022 in respect of this matter.

The Company has been trying to fill-up the position of Chief Financial Officer (CFO) for which some candidates have also been interviewed but the Company is unable to meet their financial expectations. Further, the Company has also requested the ICAI to suggest suitable candidates for the position of CFO. It is looking for candidates with experience in the real estate industry.

The Company has accounted for its investment in one of its subsidiary M/s Unitech Power Transmission Limited, as non-current assets held for sale. Cost of investment as on 31st March, 2023 is Rs. 4,226.26 Lakhs. The Company is carrying said investment at cost and has not made any estimation of its fair value less cost to sell as required under provisions of Indian Accounting Standard 105 "Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations". The company, post as on 31st March, 2023, has received a binding offer of Rs. 6,700.00 Lakhs from a buyer which is also approved by the directors of the company through circular resolution dated 14.08.2023. In the absence of any fair value assessment by the Company, we are unable to express an opinion on the matter.

We had given a disclaimer of opinion on the standalone financial statements for the year ended 31st March, 2022 in respect of this matter.

(i) Unitech Limited, during the period of erstwhile Management, had signed a binding term sheet with M/s Sterling & Wilson (SW) and had agreed to sell the entire shareholding of M/s Unitech Power Transmission Limited (UPTL) for an overall equity value of Rs. 105 Crore, out of which Rs. 68.40 Crore was the firm component whereas Rs. 35 Crore was to be backed by a Bank Guarantee and was to be paid on meeting certain conditions as set out in the purchase agreement. SW was further required to pay Rs. 1.6 Crore as the agent fee directly out of the total equity value of Rs. 105 Crore. However, the said transaction did not mature and the Hon'ble Supreme Court permitted the new Management to explore new buyers.

(iii)    Subsequent thereto, the notice of divestment was uploaded on e-Tendering portal of Unitech Limited on 06.04.2023, inviting Expressions of Interest (EoIs) from interested parties along side individual mailers to 37 potential investors on or before 19.04.2023. A total of 10 parties submitted their EOIs by the Due date, with whom NDAs were signed. Another notice was uploaded on the Unitech website and e-tendering portal on 26.04.2023 inviting nonbinding offers up to 01.05.2023. Four non-binding offers were received, which were opened on 02.05.2023, for amounts of Rs. 65 Crore (Jakson Limited), Rs. 25.00 Crore (M/s JSC OGCC), Rs. 20.00 Crore (Shilpa Steel) and Rs. 10.00 Crore (Shree Metals). The highest bidder thereafter submitted his Binding offer on 27.07.2023. The highest bidder subsequently revised his offer to Rs. 67.00 Crore. The binding Term Sheet submitted by the highest bidder was considered by the Board of Directors by circulation of an agenda on 11.08.2023. The said binding term sheet has been approved by the Board of Directors of Unitech Limited on 14.08.2023. After the decision of the Board, the transaction advisor has been requested to submit the final version of the binding term sheet.

(iv)    A fair valuation report as per the provisions prescribed under section 56 of Income Tax Act,

1961,    read with Rule 11UA of Income Tax Rules,

1962,    has been obtained from a registered Merchant Banker.

The Company has made many adjustments in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards applicable to the Company as on 31st March, 2020.

In view of the same, we are unable to express an opinion on completeness of the impact of Indian Accounting Standard appearing in the books of account of the Company.

Revenue from real estate Drojects

(i)    The Company is accounting for revenue under real estate projects using percentage of completion method (POCM) with an understanding that performance obligations are satisfied over time. Provisions of paragraph 35 of Indian Accounting Standard 115 "revenue from contracts with customers" specifies that an entity can recognize revenue over time if it satisfies any one of the following criteria:

a)    The customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the entity's performance as the entity performs

b)    The entity's performance creates or enhances an asset (for example, work in progress) that the customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced

c)    The entity's performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to the entity and; the entity has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date.

(ii)    On perusal of various agreements entered by the Company with homebuyers, it seems that the Company does not satisfy any of the conditions specified in paragraph 35 of Indian Accounting Standard 115 "revenue from contracts with customers".

(iii)    Based on the explanation provided by the management, they are in agreement with our understanding and are in the process of evaluation of its impact on the present and earlier presented periods.

(iv)    In view of the above, we are unable to express an opinion on all the matter mentioned above.

(v)    We had given a disclaimer of opinion on the standalone financial statements for the year ended 31st March, 2022 in respect of this matter.

(i)    The Audit Observations are a statement of fact and an accounting practice followed since from the period of the erstwhile Management. The Statutory Auditors are of the view that the Company should switch over from the POCM based accounting to "Point-in-Time" system of accounting as prescribed in IND-AS-115 to correct this anomaly. This is expected to fall in line with the Accounting Standards with the Project Accounting System being put in place after the award of Contracts, constructions completed and units delivered to the Homebuyers.

(ii)    There are about 17,700 homebuyers across 74 residential and 12 Commercial projects where construction is lying stalled at various stages of construction. These units are to be completed and handed over to the homebuyers. The entire exercise is being carried out under the overall guidance and supervision of Hon'ble Supreme Court.

(iii)    As such, the Management will be in a position to assess the impact thereof only in due course of time after the Projects are completed and handed over.

Regarding tax deducted at source, the Company has decided not to deposit outstanding amount of tax deducted at source till 20th January, 2020 i.e. period before the date when court appointed management took over. Accordingly, the same are still outstanding in the books of accounts of the Company.

During financial year ending 31st March, 2023, the Company is not deducting tax at source at the time of booking of expenses / accounting entry but is deducting the same at the time of payment. Same is in contravention of the provisions of chapter XVII of Income-tax Act, 1961 which mandates deduction of tax at source at earlier of booking or payment.

The Company is filing its GST returns in the states wherein it has obtained registration. However, there is no reconciliation available with the Company for the sales / input tax credit "ITC" appearing as per books of accounts and details filled in the GST returns.

We further like to draw attention to Note no. 16 of the Standalone Financial Statements, which includes balance of Rs. 12,677.74 Lakhs pertaining to balance of input tax credit "ITC" receivables by the Company under Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017. The Company does not have any ITC register and has also not provided any reconciliation between "ITC balance appearing in books" and "balance appearing in GST department's portal". In absence of any such detail and reconciliation, we are unable to comment on accuracy or completeness of the same.

Further, the company has long outstanding dues payable to employees amounting to Rs. 5,990.90 Lakhs as on 31st March, 2023. The company is in the process of evaluating the period from which dues to employees are outstanding and also in settlement of full and final amount payable to past employees of the company.

6. The Hon'ble Supreme Court, vide its order dated 18.05.2022, appointed Justice (Retd.) A. M. Sapre to be associated with every stage of tendering process and that the same be carried out under his supervision. Based on the ground-work done by PMCs, it was estimated that about 130 Tenders would be required to be floated for completion of all the 74 residential and 12 commercial projects. Since, it was practically not possible to float all the 130 tenders in one go, the Management decided to float these 130 odd tenders in four to five Lots with each Lot comprising about 30-35 tenders. Accordingly, after the approval of the Board of Directors (BoD) and Justice (Retd.) A. M. Sapre in the month of November/ December 2022, a total of 35 Tenders (as Lot-1) were floated on 02.01.2023 on Unitech's e-tendering web portal etenders.unitechgroup.com. After the last date of submission of tenders, it was discovered that no bids were received against 18 tenders (out of 35) whereas both the bids received in case of one tender failed to meet the eligibility criteria and both the bids received in respect of another tender were abnormally high, resulting in the rejection of bids for these 02 tenders. Thus, bids were required to be called afresh in respect of these 20 tenders (18+1+1). Balance 15 tenders, which were found to be technically eligible and financially acceptable, were recommended for Award of Contracts by the PMCs and EIL, which in turn was duly approved by the BoD in April, 2023 and submitted to Justice (Retd.) A.M. Sapre for his approval and onward recommendation to the Hon'ble Supreme Court seeking its permission for Award of Contracts to the successful bidders qua these 15 tenders. Justice (Retd.) A. M. Sapre scrutinized the same and submitted his recommendations to the Hon'ble Supreme Court.

Approval of the Hon'ble Supreme Court for Award of Contracts in respect of these 15 Tenders is awaited. The Letters of Intent (LoIs) would be issued to the Contractors after approval of the Hon'ble Supreme Court is received and works would commence at the respective projects thereafter.

7.    In continuation of the Tendering process, 2nd Lot of 31 Tenders were prepared by the PMCs and duly reviewed by the EIL. Thus, a total of 51 Tenders (20 re-tenders of Lot-1 and 31 tenders of Lot-2), duly approved by BoD and Justice (Retd.) A. M. Sapre, were uploaded on Unitech's e-tendering web portal on 08.05.2023 and 09.05.2023. Accordingly, these tenders were uploaded/ floated on the portal. A total of 103 bids were received against 42 Tenders as no bids were received against 09 Tenders. Finally, after technical and financial evaluation and negotiations held with 15 bidders, bids received against a total of 34 Tenders have been finalised, approved by the Board and Justice Sapre. As on date, 15 Tenders of Lot-1 and 34 Tenders of Lot-2, have been recommended by Justice (Retd.) A.M. Sapre for the approval of the Hon'ble Supreme Court.

Auditor''s Observations

Management''s Response

(i) Unitech Limited ("the Company") held its annual
general meeting for last 2 years with delays. The
company had not applied for any extension for these
annual general meeting to the Registrar of Companies,
NCT of Delhi & Haryana and is in the process of
estimation of penalty and other implications due to
delay in holding of annual general meeting.

(ii) Further, the Company also delayed in filing of
its quarterly and annual/year to date results with
Security and Exchange Board of India "SEBI". The
Company has not taken any provision related to
penalty on account of such delay and management is
now planning to seek relief against such penalty from
SEBI.

(iii) We had given a disclaimer of opinion on the
standalone financial statements for the year ended
31st March, 2022 in respect of this matter.

(i) The Annual General Meeting (AGM) for the year
ended 31st March, 2022 was due to be held latest
by 30th September, 2022. However, the AGM for
the FY 2021-22 was held on 31.03.2023. The new
management did not have access to complete
records of various transactions of the Company.
It caused delay in the finalization of accounts
and convening of Annual General Meeting. The
new Management has inherited several legacies
under various provisions of law, including non¬
compliances related to non-holding of Annual
General Meeting of Unitech Limited on or before
the due dates. Ever since the new Management
took control of Unitech Group as whole, it has
been endeavoring to make the Group compliant in
accordance with the provisions of the Companies
Act, 2013 and rules made thereunder and other
applicable laws.

(ii) The Company has scheduled its Annual General
Meeting for the FY 2022-23 on 29th September
2023, which is well within the prescribed time-lines.

(iii) The Management had taken up the issue of seeking
exemptions and waiver of penalties from MCA
as well as SEBI vide its letters dated 11.06.2020,

29.07.2020 and 27.08.2020 and had also sought
the intervention of Secretary MCA to take up the
matter with SEBI. The Secretary MCA also took
up the matter with Chairman SEBI vide his letter
dated 05.08.2020. SEBI responded vide its letter
dated 09.09.2020 informing that the BSE and NSE
had examined the issue in view of moratorium
granted by the Hon''ble Supreme Court and the
notice for suspension of trading of securities had
been withdrawn. Finding that there was no positive
response on waiver of penalties, the Management
filed an IA No. 81660 of 2021 and 81663 of 2021 on

16.07.2021 in the Supreme Court seeking requisite
reliefs, which is still pending. The above defaults on
the part of the Company were also placed before
the Hon''ble Supreme Court in the Action Taken
Report-III filed on 28.03.2022

(i) We have made references to the Resolution
Framework (RF) for Unitech group which has been
prepared under the directions of the Board of
Directors of Unitech Limited appointed by the Central
Government pursuant to the afore-said order of the
Hon''ble Supreme Court and approved by the Board
of Directors in their Meeting held on June 17, 2020/
September 10, 2020/ October 28, 2020/ April 27, 2022
and which has been filed with the Hon''ble Supreme
Court. Through RF, the company has requested the
Hon''ble Supreme Court to grant some concessions
and reliefs so that the company is able to fulfil its
obligations towards the construction of the projects
and meet other liabilities.

(ii) As the RF has not yet been approved by the Hon''ble
Supreme Court, the impact of the proposed reliefs,
concessions etc. have not been considered in the
books of accounts.

(iii) We had given a disclaimer of opinion on the
standalone financial statements for the year ended
31 st March, 2022 in respect of this matter.

The points mentioned herein are informatory in nature
and the Management has no further comments to offer
on the same.

3.

Material uncertainty related to aoina concern

(i) Management has represented that the Standalone
Financial Statements have been prepared on a going
concern basis, notwithstanding the fact that the
Company has incurred losses and has challenges
in meeting its operational obligations, servicing its
current liabilities including bank loans and public
deposits. The Company also has various litigation
matters which are pending before different forums,
and various projects of the Company have stalled/
slowed down.

(ii) These conditions indicate the existence of material
uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about
Company''s ability to continue as a going concern.
The appropriateness of assumption of going concern
is critically dependent upon the Company''s ability
to raise finance and generate cash flows in future to
meet its obligations, and also on the final decision
of the Hon''ble Supreme Court on the Resolution
Framework. Also, the Board of Directors are exploring
various possible options for completion of ongoing
projects and are trying to generate additional possible
revenues by construction of new flats. This activity
is getting conducted under supervision of Justice
Abhay Manohar Sapre, as appointed by Hon''ble
Supreme Court of India.

(iii) We had given a disclaimer of opinion on the
standalone financial statements for the year ended
31 st March, 2022 in respect of this matter.

The Management has already stated its position in
the Resolution Framework submitted in the Hon''ble
Supreme Court on 15.07.2020, followed by updated
versions submitted on 05.02.2021 and 08.08.2022,
wherein the Hon''ble Supreme Court has been prayed
to grant certain concessions and reliefs so that the
Company is able to fulfil its obligations towards the
construction and completion of projects and meet other
liabilities. The reasons for opting against the winding up
the Company or its reference under IBC have fully been
explained in the application filed for submission of the
Resolution Framework.

(i) The Company had received a ''cancellation of
lease deed'' notice from Greater Noida Industrial
Development Authority ("GNIDA") dated
18th November 2015. As per the Notice, GNIDA
cancelled the lease deed in respect of Residential/
Group Housing plots on account of non¬
implementation of the project and non-payment of
various dues amounting to Rs. 105,483.26 Lakhs.
The said land is also mortgaged and the Company
has registered such mortgage to a third party on
behalf of lender for the Non-Convertible Debenture
(NCD) facility extended to the Company and, due to
default in repayment of these NCDs, the debenture
holders have served a notice to the Company under
section 13(4) of the SARFAESI Act and have also
taken notional possession of this land. The Company
had contractually entered into agreements to sell
with 352 buyers and has also received advances
from such buyers amounting to Rs. 6,682.10 Lakhs
(net of repayment). No contract revenue has been
recognized on this project.

(ii) GNIDA has, in the meanwhile, in terms of the Order
of the Hon''ble Supreme Court dated 18.09.2018,
deposited on behalf of the Company, an amount of
Rs. 7,436.35 Lakhs (Rs. 6,682.10 Lakhs and interest
@ 6% on the principal amount of Rs. 6,682.10 Lakhs),
out of the monies paid by the Company, with the
registry of the Hon''ble Supreme Court.

(iii) GNIDA has adjusted Rs. 9,200.00 Lakhs of Unitech
Group''s liabilities towards the Company''s other
projects with GNIDA and forfeited Rs. 13,893.42
Lakhs. The Company had paid a sum of Rs. 34,221.90
Lakhs, including Rs. 4,934.95 Lakhs of stamp duty on
the land, for the said land.

(iv) The matter in respect of the land is still pending
before the Hon''ble High Court of Allahabad, and
pending the final disposal, the Company has,
subsequently, shown the amount of Rs. 18,339.80
Lakhs as recoverable from GNIDA in its books of
accounts including stamp duty of Rs. 4,934.95 Lakhs
and lease rent paid of Rs. 6,113.11 Lakhs. Further, the
Company is also carrying

(a) Other construction costs amounting to Rs.
80,575.05 Lakhs in respect of the projects to
come upon the said land which also includes
interest capitalized of Rs. 69,684.68 Lakhs.

(i) The matter is still pending in the Hon''ble High Court
of Allahabad for final disposal. The Management
is hopeful that its stand shall be vindicated in the
Hon''ble Court and there shall be no adverse impact,
other than the one already disclosed.

(ii) As regards the amount of Rs. 7,436.35 lakhs (Rs.
6,682.10 lakhs interest @ 6% on the principal
amount of Rs. 6,682.10 lakhs), deposited with the
Registry of the Hon''ble Supreme Court, the said
amount has already been paid to 352 homebuyers
pursuant to the directions of Hon''ble Supreme
Court, which is a bit more than the principal amount
deposited by the said homebuyers.

(iii) Further, the Management is also in the process
of filing a comprehensive IA before the Hon''ble
Supreme Court qua GNIDA''s demands raised
against Unitech, including seeking appropriate
directions on the instant issue.

(b) Deferred liability on account of interest payable
to GNIDA appearing in the books of accounts as
on 31st March, 2022 amounting to Rs. 3,72,777.42
Lakhs (including Rs. 52,220.54 Lakhs booked on
account of interest during the year ended 31st
March, 2023). Out of the interest mentioned
above Rs. 4,846.67 Lakhs has been capitalized
in the books of accounts of the Company. The
same is in contravention of the provisions of
Indian Accounting Standards 23 "Borrowing
Costs".

(v) The impact on the accounts viz. inventory, projects
in progress, customer advances, amount payable to
or receivable from GNIDA, cannot be ascertained,
since the matter is still subjudice, as mentioned
hereinabove, vis-a-vis dues of the Company, and
hence, we are unable to express an opinion on this
matter.

We had given a disclaimer of opinion on the standalone
financial statements for the year ended 31st March,
2022 in respect of this matter.

5.

(i) Confirmations/ reconciliations are pending in respect
of amounts deposited by the Company with the
Hon''ble Supreme Court. As per books of account,
an amount of Rs. 31,191.85 Lakhs deposited with
the Hon''ble Supreme Court Registry ("Registry")
is outstanding as at 31 st March, 2023. Management
has received certain details of payments made and
monies received in the registry from the Court and has
accrued the same in its books of accounts. However,
there are still variations of Rs. 934.15 Lakhs between
balance as per books of accounts vs balance as per
registry details and management is in the process of
reconciliation of the same.

(ii) Further, for the payments made from its registry,
there was no deduction made on account of tax
at source and no goods and services tax liability,
wherever applicable on reverse charge basis have
been complied with.

(iii) In view of the reconciliation exercise still in process
and absence of other statement of transactions
and confirmation of balance from the Registry, we
are unable to comment on the completeness and
correctness of amounts outstanding with the Registry
and of the ultimate impact these transactions would
have on the Standalone Financial Statements of the
Company, and hence we are unable to express an
opinion on this matter.

(iv) We had given a disclaimer of opinion on the
standalone financial statements for the year ended
31 st March, 2022 in respect of this matter.

(i) The observation is a statement of fact and needs no
further comments.

(ii) The Company received a detailed statement of
accounts from the Supreme Court''s Registry in
the month of November, 2022. After reconciliation
of the accounts, entries pertaining to (a) interest
income of Rs. 4,980.00 lakhs upto 22.11.2022, (b)
disbursement of Rs. 2,734.11 lakhs, out of 4,000
lakhs deposited in the Supreme Court''s Registry by
M/s Pioneer Urban Land & Infrastructure Limited,
and (c) disbursement of Rs. 2,183.45 lakhs to
homebuyers, FD holders and other stakeholders,
have been duly entered in the books of accounts
for the period ending 31.03.2023.

(iii) Further, during reconciliation, variations amounting
to Rs. 934.15 lakhs have been observed between
Balance as per books of accounts vis-a-vis Balance
as per Supreme Court''s Registry, which is proposed
to be taken up with the Supreme Court Registry
and reconciled as soon as the relevant information
is received from the Registry.

(iv) As regards the TDS on the payments made
from the Registry or the TDS by the Bank on the
accrued interest, the Registry has not provided any
information. This will have to be verified from the
Supreme Court Registry. In any case, prima facie,
there should be no liabilities/ penalties on this
account qua the Company as the default, if any,
would be on the part of the Bank or the Supreme
Court Registry.

According to information given and explanation provided
to us by the management, in respect of Property, Plant
and Equipment (PPE) including Investment Property
having net value of Rs. 2,996.56 Lakhs (net of accumulated
depreciation of Rs. 7,527.88 Lakhs), there is no physical
verification conducted by the Company since last year.
Further, the Company does not maintain proper records
showing full particulars, including quantitative details
and situation of Fixed Assets comprising ''property, plant
and equipment, ''capital work-in-progress'' & ''investment
property''''. In view of this and also of the fact that these
PPE''s are kept as security for obtaining bank loans and all
the loan accounts of the Company (except loan obtained
from Punjab National Bank) are at non performing levels,
we are not able to express an opinion on this matter.

We had given a disclaimer of opinion on the standalone
financial statements for the year ended 31st March, 2022 in
respect of this matter.

The Company has maintained the Fixed Assets
Register for recording the details of Property, Plant
& Equipments. The management is facing a major
challenge in reconciling the Opening Balances, which is
a legacy issue and difficult to reconcile. However, it is
proposed to take up this exercise to prepare separate
lists of PPE where the reconciliation of Opening Balance
remains an issue. The challenges faced in reconciliation
of the Opening Balances, wherever occurring, will be
addressed separately.

Non-current investment and loans

Company has made investments and given loans to its
subsidiaries, joint ventures, associates and others. Details
as on 31st March, 2023 are as follows:

(i) Unitech Limited has 186 Indian Subsidiary
Companies out of which 08 subsidiary Companies
have been struck off by the Registrar of Companies,
NCT Delhi and Haryana. The Company has moved
the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) for the
revival of the subsidiaries which have been struck
off, out of which 02 have already been ordered to
be revived.

(ii) For 149 Indian Subsidiary Companies, Statutory
Auditors have been appointed so far whereas the
due process for settlement of accounts with the
existing Statutory Auditors in case of 16 other
Subsidiaries is underway. For the remaining 13

investment, necessary steps are being taken by the
Company in this regard.

(iii) As regards 32 foreign subsidiaries along with Libya

(iv) The matter regarding investment in Carnoustie and

Agencies and various attachment orders have
been passed by the Enforcement Directorate.
The Management has included the position of
Carnoustie and CIG in the Resolution Framework
submitted before the Hon''ble Supreme Court. It is
pertinent to mention here that Unitech Limited has
also filed an IA in the Hon''ble Supreme Court for
the recovery of the amount invested. The matter
has been heard but the order is awaited.

(v) However, keeping in view the investigations being
carried out by the ED, and the ED having filed
charge-sheets before the Adjudicating Authority
under PMLA, the Company is left with no option
but to await the final outcome in these matters.

Considering the fact that the accounts of the above-
mentioned foreign entities are not available with the
management and for Indian entities, they are not audited
since last 3-4 years plus also taking into account the factors
such as non-existence of any loan agreement stating
terms, conditions and duration of loan, accumulated
losses in above said entities, substantial/ full erosion
of net worth, significant uncertainty on the future of
these entities and significant uncertainty on recovery
of investments and loans, there are strong indicators of
conducting impairment/ expected credit loss assessment
for above mentioned investments and loans in accordance
with the principles of Indian Accounting Standards 36,
"impairment of assets" and Indian Accounting Standards
109 "financial instruments".

Further: -

(i) Equity investment - others include investment made
in M/s Carnoustie Management (India) Private Limited
(Carnoustie) of Rs. 31,005.45 Lakhs as on 31st March,
2023. Regarding this investment, the Company
has already filed an Intervention Application "IA"
before Hon''ble Supreme Court of India wherein, the
Company has stated that erstwhile management
has invested in equity shares of Carnoustie @ Rs.
1,000 - Rs. 1,500 per share including a premium of
Rs. 990 - Rs. 1,490 per share. As per IA submitted
by the Company, there was no basis available with
erstwhile management for such share valuation.
Also, there were certain plots allotted to Carnoustie
at a price much lower than the market rate as
on allotment date. Considering the nature of this
investment, same is to be valued at fair value through
other comprehensive income "FVTOCI" as required
under Indian Accounting Standards 109 "financial
instruments" but the Company has decided to carry
investment made in Carnoustie at cost as the matter
is subjudice.

(ii) Investment - CIG - The Company made investment of
Rs. 25,453.18 Lakhs in CIG Realty Fund for which no
details are available with the Company. As explained
by management, the Company is planning to file a
separate Intervention Application "IA" before Hon''ble
Supreme Court of India requesting Hon''ble Court
to take up this matter. Management also explained
that CIG funds are already under investigation by
Enforcement Directorate (ED) and Serious Fraud
Investigation Office (SFIO). Considering the nature
of this investment, same is to be valued at fair value
through other comprehensive income "FVTOCI" as
required under Indian Accounting Standards 109
"financial instruments" but the Company has decided
to carry investment made in CIG funds at cost as the
matter is under investigation by various authorities.

In view of non-existence of any impairment study,
non-existence of any expected credit loss policy in
the Company and accounting of investment at cost
which were otherwise to be carried at FVTOCI, we are
unable to express an opinion upon the adjustments,
if any, that may be required to the carrying value
of these non-current investments and non-current
loan and its consequential impact on the Standalone
Financial Statement.

We had given a disclaimer of opinion on the standalone
financial statements for the year ended 31st March,

Impairment Assessment of Bank and Comorate

(i) There are a number of secured, unsecured and
operational creditors qua the Company and its
subsidiaries, JVs and other affiliates. Further, the
Company and the promoters have also given
various kinds of Guarantees, including Bank
Guarantees and Corporate Guarantees, the lists
whereof (to the extent of availability of records),
surviving or matured, have been shared with the
Statutory Auditors. However, it may not be possible
to vouchsafe at this stage that these are the only
Guarantees given by the Company.

(ii) The issues pertaining to secured, unsecured
and operational creditors have been covered in
Chapter-3 of the Resolution Framework (RF). Apart
from seeking various reliefs and concessions qua
such creditors, the RF also contains a provision on
invitation of Claims and settlement thereof (3.2).
These issues have yet not been adjudicated by
the Hon''ble Supreme Court. Hence, it is neither
possible nor feasible at this stage to undertake any
impairment assessment of secured creditors, and/

Guarantees

Standalone Financial Statements, wherein it is stated that
the Company is having outstanding bank and corporate
guarantee of Rs. 107,059.26 lakhs as per audited financials
for year ending 31st March, 2023. The Company has not
conducted any impairment assessment on the same
in accordance with the principles of Indian Accounting
Standards 109 "financial instruments". In view of the

the fact that in majority of the projects of the Company,

In continuation thereto, 2nd Lot of 31 Tenders was

Management''s Response

Also further, the Company, in its financial statements has
bifurcated PIP under two headings - “Project in progress
on which revenue is not recognized" and “Amount
recoverable from project in progress (on which revenue
is recognized)". We have not been provided with any
basis on which this bifurcation is made.

In view of the absence of any NRV assessment by the
management and absence of any physical verification
report, capitalization of expenses and interest cost
during the year, and absence of any basis of bifurcation
of projects in financial statements, we are unable to
express an opinion upon the existence and adjustments,
if any, that may be required to the carrying value of
these inventories and PIP and its consequential impact
on the Standalone Financial Statements.

We had given a disclaimer of opinion on the standalone
financial statements for the year ended 31st March,
2022 in respect of this matter.

(v) Projects in Progress (PIP) on which revenue is
not recognized refers to those projects where no
inventory is available for sale and only expenditure
is to be made for the completion of residual works
in such projects.

11.

External Confirmation

The Company has not initiated the process of external
confirmation for outstanding balances of the following
areas as on 31st March, 2023 are as follow:

(i) It is stated that as per Standards on Auditing
(SA)-505, prescribed by the Institute of Chartered
Accountants of India (ICAI), the process of external
confirmation is to be initiated by the Statutory
Auditors for directly obtaining the evidence from
the confirming parties at their level. However,
the management would initiate this exercise now
keeping the Statutory Auditors in loop for the with
respect to outstanding balances as on 31.03.2023.
It would, therefore, be appropriate that the
Statutory Auditors take up external confirmations
based on random sampling basis since obtaining
confirmation from all the parties would be a time¬
consuming exercise.

(ii) As far as the liability of the Company towards the
secured, unsecured or operational creditors is
concerned, the same has been covered in Chapter-3
of the Resolution Framework (RF) submitted before
the Hon''ble Supreme Court. The RF also contains a
provision on the Process of Claim Settlement qua
such creditors according to which the Company
shall be inviting claims from all such stakeholders
but it can be done only after a definitive view on the
RF is taken by the Hon''ble Supreme Court.

date of submission of tenders, it was discovered that
no bids were received against 18 tenders (out of 35)
whereas both the bids received in case of one tender
failed to meet the eligibility criteria and both the bids
received in respect of another tender were abnormally
high, resulting in the rejection of bids for these 02
tenders. Thus, bids were required to be called afresh

tenders, which were found to be technically eligible
and financially acceptable, were recommended for
Award of Contracts by the PMCs and EIL, which in

submitted to Justice (Retd.) A.M. Sapre for his approval

feasible.

Auditors’ Report

A) The Auditors’ in their Report to the members, have given five qualified opinions and the response of your Directors with respect to it are as follows:-

Response to point (1)

On basis of internal assessments and evaluations, possible recoveries from securities (registered or unregistered) have represented that the significant portion of such trade receivables balance outstanding are still recoverable/ adjustable and that no accrual for diminution in value of trade receivables, other than the ones already provided in the books of accounts; is therefore necessary for the period ending 31st March, 2017. The Management closely monitors its credit exposure and is confident of appropriately adjusting / recovering significant portions of the remaining outstanding balance of such amounts in the foreseeable future.

Response to point (2)

The Company is making best possible efforts for sale of the land parcels earmarked for repayment of the deposits but such sale process is taking time due to global economic recession and liquidity crisis, particularly, in the real estate sector of India. However, regardless of these adverse circumstances and difficulties, the Company is committed to comply with the orders passed by the Hon’ble NCLT (including the ones passed by CLB) and NCLAT to repay all the public deposits along with interest thereon in the course of time period.

The company has already earmarked 6 (six) unencumbered land parcels which shall be sold and the entire sale proceeds thereof shall be utilized for repayment of the said deposits. The Company is fully committed to repay all the deposits along with interest thereon and it is making all efforts to arrange the necessary resources required for this purpose.

Response to point (3)

The Company periodically assesses and evaluate its investments, loans and advances. The Company is of the firm view that the diminution, if any, even if it exists is only temporary and that sufficient efforts are being undertaken to revive the said subsidiaries in the foreseeable future so as to recover carrying value of the investment. Further, management believes that the loans and advances given to these companies are considered good and recoverable based on the future projects in these subsidiaries and accordingly no provision other than those already accounted for, has been considered necessary.

Response to point (4)

Advances for the purchase of land, projects pending commencement and to joint ventures and collaborators have been given in the normal course of business to land owning companies, collaborators, projects and for purchase of land. Periodically the management assesses the recoverability of such advances The management of the Company, based on the internal assessment and evaluations, considers that these advances, which are in the normal course of business are recoverable/adjustable and that no provision is necessary at this stage. The management is confident of recovering/ appropriately adjusting the balance in due course.

Response to point (5)

The Company has written a letter to GNIDA dated 1 December 2015, wherein it has stated that the cancellation of the lease deed is wrong, unjust and arbitrary. The Company has also described steps taken for implementation of the project, valid business reasons due to delays till date. Further, it had also proposed that in view of the fact that third party interests have been created by the Company in the allotted land, by allotting plots to different allottees, in the interest of such allottees, GNIDA may allow the Company to retain an area of approximately 25 acres out of the total allotted land of approx. 100 acres and that the amount paid by the Company till date may be adjusted against the price of the land of 25 acres and remaining surplus amount may be adjusted towards dues of other projects of the Company under GNIDA. The discussions/ negotiations and the legal recourse process are currently underway. The management is of the concerned view that in view of the recent developments, in-spite of the aforesaid letter, no provisioning of the investment made in the project is required

B) The Auditors’ in their report to the members, have stated two “Emphasis of matter” and the response of your Directors on them are as follows:-

Response to point (1)

The Company filed a writ petition before Hon’ble High Court of Punjab & Haryana challenging the termination of development agreement. The matter was referred for arbitration and the matter is pending adjudication before the panel of three arbitrators. The Company has concluded its evidence. The Company has a good case and accordingly no provision has been considered necessary.

Response to point (2)

Based on the legal advice received by it, the Company believes that the said award of LCIA and order of the Hon’ble Delhi High Court is not enforceable in India on various grounds including but not limited to lack of jurisdiction by the LCIA appointed arbitral tribunal. The Hon’ble High Court of Delhi has passed an order in the case instant. On the basis of legal advice received, the Company is sanguine & strongly believes that its stand taken in this matter will be vindicated in the Hon’ble Supreme Court. The Company is preparing for filing the SLP in the Hon’ble Supreme Court against the said Order of the Hon’ble High Court of Delhi. Nevertheless, in case if the Company is required to make the aforesaid investment into Kerrush Investments Ltd. (Mauritius), its economic interest in the SRA project in Santacruz Mumbai shall stand increased proportionately thereby creating a substantial asset for the Company with an immense development potential.

C) Further, the Board gives the following explanations, to the comments of the Auditors’ in para 1 (g) to Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements:-

The Company has sought legal opinions from its legal advisors, with respect to the matured unpaid debentures and public deposits outstanding at Balance Sheet date. Based on the same, the Board is of the view that the provisions of Section 164(2) (b) of the Companies Act, 2013 does not attract.

D) Further, the Board also gives the following explanations, to the Disclaimer of Opinion of the Auditors’ in the Annexure A to Auditors’ Report to the members:-

1. The Company works in a dynamic business environment and adopts the suitable internal financial controls, especially the ones having bearing upon reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes, in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles. It includes maintaining such business policies and procedures as may be required to effectively conduct the business of the Company and maintain such records as to properly record the business transaction, assets and liabilities of the Company in such a way that they help in prevention of frauds & errors and timely completion of financial statements.

a. Following the norms prevailing in the real estate industry the Company does not ascertain the credit worthiness of customers. The Company maintains the due and mandated KYC norms of the customers. The Company takes a good amount of the overall purchase price of the customer as an advance at the time of booking, and should in case, if the customer fails to pay the due amount, the Company can forfeit the amount, already paid by the customer. The risk is further reduced where the property purchased by customer if financed by any bank/ NBFC. The said Bank/ NBFC do their routine credit check of the customer and thus the Company is not exposed to any credit risk for not ascertaining the credit worthiness of customers.

b. The advances for the purchase of land, projects pending commencement and to the joint ventures and collaborators are given in the normal course of business to land owning Companies, collaborators, projects and for the purchase of land. The Company keeps a watch on how this amount is utilized ultimately. The management of the Company based on the internal assessment and evaluation considers that these advances, which are in the normal course of business, are recoverable/ adjustable. The Company has a process to advance such loans & advance and the management of the Company keeps a close watch on extending such loans & advance and their ultimate recovery.

c. The Company, as per the generally accepted accounting principles, duly provides for the diminished value of such loans & advances, where the recovery of such loan is doubtful. The management believes that the diminution in the value of investments, to the extent other than the value already reduced in the books of accounts, if any, that exists; is only temporary and that the sufficient efforts are being undertaken to revive the said subsidiaries in the foreseeable future so as to recover carrying value of the investment.

2. Project management and land management are the keys to the successful and timely completion of projects. The Company has focused attention to complete the existing projects and has aligns all its available resources for the execution of the projects. This dynamic approach requires realignment of the prevailing internal control relating to Project Management, Project Revenue and Land Management. Similarly to utilize its existing resources better, the company is re-aligns its processes relating to Land Management, Receivable Management, Litigations & Claims.

Further, management believes that the loans and advances given to these Companies are considered good and recoverable based on the future projects in these subsidiaries and accordingly no provision other than those already accounted for, has been considered necessary.

Response to point (v)

The Company is making best possible efforts for sale of the land parcels earmarked for repayment of the deposits but such sale process is taking time due to global economic recession and liquidity crisis, particularly, in the real estate sector of India. However, regardless of these adverse circumstances and difficulties, the Company is committed to comply with the orders passed by the Hon’ble NCLT (including the ones passed by CLB) and NCLAT to repay all the public deposits along with interest thereon in the course of time period.
