ANNEXURE TO THE AUDITORS REPORT
The Annexure referred to in the auditors report to the Members of Agro
Tech Foods Limited (the Company) for the year ended 31 March 2011. We
report that:
1. The Company has maintained proper records showing full particulars,
including quantitative details and situation of fxed assets.
2. The Company has a regular program of physical verifcation of its
fxed assets by which all fxed assets are verifed every year. In our
opinion, the periodicity of physical verifcation is reasonable having
regard to the size of the Company and the nature of its assets. No
material discrepancies were noted on such verifcation.
3. Fixed assets disposed off during the year were not substantial, and
therefore, do not affect the going concern assumption.
4. The inventories, except goods-in-transit and stocks lying with
third parties, have been physically verifed by the management during
the year. In our opinion, the frequency of such verifcation is
reasonable. For stocks lying with third parties at the year-end,
written confrmations have been obtained.
5. In our opinion, the procedures for the physical verifcation of
inventories followed by the management are reasonable and adequate in
relation to the size of the Company and the nature of its business.

discrepancies noticed on verifcation between the physical stocks and
the book records were not material.

8. In our opinion and according to the information and explanations
given to us, and having regard to the explanation that purchases of
certain items of inventories are for the Companys specialised
requirements and suitable alternative sources are not available to

system commensurate with the size of the Company and the nature of its
business with regard to purchase of inventories and fxed assets and
with regard to the sale of goods and services. In our opinion and
according to the information and explanations given to us, there is no
continuing failure to correct major weaknesses in internal control
system. We have not observed any major weakness in the internal control
system during the course of the audit.
