1. We have audited the attached Balance Sheet of AFTEK LIMITED as at
31st March 2011 and also the annexed Profit and Loss Account and Cash
Flow Statement of the Company for the year ended on that date annexed
thereto (collectively referred as ''financial statements''). These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company''s
Management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our Audit.
2. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards
generally accepted in India. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. An Audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made
by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for
our opinion.
3. As required by manufacturing and other Companies (Auditor''s Report)
order, 2003 issued by the Company Law Board in terms of Section 227
(4A) of the Companies Act, 1956, we enclose in annexure a statement on
the matters specifies in paragraph 4 & 5 of the said order.
4. Without qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to Note No B.2
(iii) to Schedule S, wherein as explained the Liability if any of the
pending assessment under Income Tax, Sales tax (including interest, if
any) are not ascertained.
5. We report that:
5.1 As stated in note B.14 to Schedule S, the management has not
considered any provision in respect of old outstanding loans and
advances aggregating (Rs.''000) 80,639 [Previous year (Rs.''000) 80,639],
which in our opinion, are doubtful for recovery. Consequently loans and
advances are overstated and net loss for the year is understated by
(Rs.''000) 80,639. This matter was also qualified in the previous years.
5.2 As explained in note B.16 to Schedule S, the management has not
considered any further provision in respect of investments (net of
provision) aggregating (Rs.''000) 29,597 [Previous year (Rs.''000)
29,597] and loans and advances of (Rs.''000) 5,508 [Previous year
(Rs.''000) 5,565] given to Opdex Inc. a wholly owned subsidiary whose
accumulated losses substantially exceed its paid up capital. The impact
of non provision of diminution in investments and doubtful loans and
advances, if any, is presently not ascertainable. This matter was also
qualified in the previous year.
6. Further to our comments in the annexure referred to in paragraph
(1) above; we state that:
i) We have obtained all the information and explanations, which to the
best of our knowledge and belief were necessary for the purpose of our
audit;
ii) In our opinion, proper books of account as required by law have
been kept by the company so far as appears from our examinations of

of directors, we report that none of the director is prima facie
disqualified as on 31st March, 2011 from being appointed as director of
