Auditor's Report (Ansal Properties & Infrastructure) Year End : Mar '12
We have audited the attached Balance Sheet of Ansal Properties &
 Infrastructure Limited as at March 31, 2012 and also the Statement of
 Profit and Loss and the Cash Flow Statement of the Company for the year
 ended on that date, annexed thereto. 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.
 
 We have 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 the management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
 statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable
 basis for our opinion.
 
 As required by the Companies (Auditors'' Report) Order, 2003 as amended
 by the Companies (Auditors'' Report) (Amendment) Order, 2004
 (collectively the Order) issued by the Central Government of India in
 terms of Section 227 (4A) of the Companies Act, 1956 and on the basis
 of such checks as we considered appropriate and according to the
 information and explanations given to us, we enclose in the Annexure a
 statement on the matters specified in paragraphs 4 and 5 of the said
 Order.
 
 Further to our comments in the Annexure referred to above, we report
 that:
 
 a) 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;
 
 b) In our opinion, proper books of account, as required by law, have
 been kept by the Company so far as appears from our examination of
 those books;
 
 c) The Balance Sheet, Statement of Profit & Loss and Cash Flow
 Statement dealt with by this report are in agreement with the books of
 account;
 
 d) In our opinion, the Balance Sheet, Statement of Profit & Loss and
 Cash Flow Statement, dealt with by this report, comply with the
 Accounting Standards referred to in sub - section (3C) of Section 211
 of the Companies Act, 1956.
 
 e) On the basis of written representations received from the directors
 as on March 31, 2012 and taken on record by the Board of Directors, we
 report that none of the directors is disqualified as on March 31, 2012
 from being appointed as a director in terms of clause (g) of sub
 section (1) of section 274 of the Companies Act, 1956.
 
 f) Without qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to:
 
 i.  Note No. 30 wherein the Company has claimed exemption of Rs. 3448
 lacs in earlier years under section 80 lA of the Income Tax Act, 1961
 being tax profits arising out of sale of Industrial Park units, pending
 the notification of the same by Central Board of Direct Taxes. Further
 the company has taken opinion from a senior counsel that its
 application satisfies all the conditions specified in the said Scheme
 of Industrial Park. We have relied on management contention.  However,
 no exemption is claimed during the current year as there are no sales
 of industrial park units.
 
 ii.  Note No. 32(b) wherein the Company is carrying project inventory
 of Rs. 16833 lacs for one of its Group Housing projects. The company
 had applied to the Authority for developing the project on the basis of
 revised Scheme announced by the Authority for which approval has been
 received envisaging developing the project on a smaller piece of land
 equivalent to the amount paid and surrender balance project land
 subject to certain conditions. Pending final decision of the Authority
 in the matter, the management is of the view that there is no
 impairment in the value of land/ project and we have relied on
 management contention.
 
 iii.  Note No. 32(a) wherein the Company has given advances to land
 owning companies / collaborators I others for purchase / aggregation of
 land / for others to the tune of Rs.13707 lacs.  This includes Rs.
 10000 lacs as security deposits, the recoverability / adjustment of
 which is dependent upon the future events such as launch of project(s)
 for which steps have been or are being taken by the Company. As regards
 the balance amount of Rs.3707 lacs, pending details of land purchased
 and financial position of these parties, we understand from management
 that these advances are given in respect of on going transactions with
 collaborators / other parties and are regarded as being in the normal
 course of business. We have relied on management contention.
 
 g) The Company has not considered for the estimated borrowing costs to
 be incurred in future in general for determining the project revenues,
 project inventory and debtors. According to the management the amount
 of these items cannot be determined at this stage, and therefore, we
 are unable to comment on the consequential impact thereof on the
 carrying value of project inventory, revenue recognition and
 outstanding debtors and other adjustments that may be necessitated on
 this account in the financial statements.
 
 h) The Company had, during the year ended March 31, 2010, changed its
 accounting policy in respect of accounting for certain costs in the
 nature of administration and selling costs by charging them off to
 Profit & Loss against the earlier policy of treating them as part of
 project cost for determining project inventory, revenue and debtors.
 Expenditure of such nature incurred in earlier years and considered as
 part of project inventories under Projects/ Contract work in progress
 upto March 31, 2009 has been carried forward as such. Such amount has
 not been determined by the management in view of the practical
 difficulties involved, as explained. In the absence of availability of
 these amounts relating to the period upto March 31, 2009, we are unable
 to comment on the impact thereof on the carrying value of project
 inventories, revenue recognition and outstanding debtors and other
 adjustments that may be required in the financial statements.
 
 Subject to that stated in clause g) and h) above having its impact as
 aforesaid, in our opinion and to the best of our information and
 according to the explanations given to us, the said accounts read with
 the Accounting policies and Notes thereon give the information required
 by the Act, in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in
 conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India:
 
 a) In the case of Balance Sheet, of the state of affairs of the Company
 as at March 31,2012;
 
 b) In the case of Statement of Profit and Loss, of the Profit for the
 year ended on that date; and
 
 c) In the case of Cash Flow Statement, of the Cash flows for the year
 ended on that date.
 
 ANNEXURE TO AUDITORS'' REPORT 
 
 (Annexure referred to in our report of even date) Re: Ansal Properties
 & Infrastructure Limited
 
 1.  a. The Company has maintained proper records showing full
 particulars, including quantitative details and situation of fixed
 assets.
 
 b.  The Company has a phased programme of physical verification of its
 fixed assets which, in our opinion, is reasonable having regard to the
 size of the Company and the nature of its assets. All the fixed assets
 identified during the year for verification have not been physically
 verified by the management. However, discrepancies noticed during
 physical verification have been recorded and accounted for in the books
 of account to the extent of verification carried out.
 
 c.  Fixed assets disposed off during the year were not substantial.
 
 2.  a. As explained to us, physical verification has been conducted by
 the management at reasonable intervals in respect of building material,
 stores & spares and inventory of shops/flats/houses. In our opinion,
 the frequency of such verification is reasonable.
 
 b.  The procedures for the physical verification of inventory followed
 by the management are, in our opinion, reasonable and adequate in
 relation to the size of the Company and nature of its business.
 
 c.  In our opinion, the Company is maintaining proper records of
 inventory. The discrepancies noticed on physical verification of
 inventory as compared to book records were not material and have been
 properly dealt with in the books of account.
 
 3.  a. The company has not granted any loans, secured or unsecured, to
 companies, firms or other parties listed in the register maintained
 under section 301 of the Companies Act, 1956.

 the principal amount & interest due thereon and overdue amounts are not
 required.
 
 c.  The company has taken deposits from one of the directors and his
 relative covered in the register maintained under section 301 of the
 Companies Act, 1956. In our opinion the rate of interest and other
 terms and conditions of such deposits are not prima facie, prejudicial
 to the interest of the company. The maximum amount of deposit during
 the year was Rs. 21 lacs and the yearend balance was also Rs. 21 lacs.
 
 d.  In respect of deposits taken, repayment of the principal and
 interest has been regular. There are no overdue amounts at the year
 end.

 given to us during the course of audit, there are adequate internal
 control systems commensurate with size of the Company and the nature of
 its business with regard to purchase of inventory and fixed assets and
 for the sale of services. Further, on the basis of our examination of
 the books & records of the company, carried out in accordance with the
 generally accepted auditing practices in India, we have neither come
 across nor have we been informed of any instance of major weaknesses in
 the aforesaid internal control systems. The company''s activity does not
 qualify for sale of goods. However, the internal control systems with
 regard to documentation of advances given to land owning companies/
 collaborators/ associates/ others need improvement.
 
 5.  a. To the best of our knowledge and according to the information
 and explanations given to us, we are of the opinion that particulars of

 explanations given to us, the transactions with parties in pursuance of
 contracts or arrangements, with whom transactions exceeding the value
 of Rupees Five Lacs in respect of each party have taken place during
 the financial year, are at prices, which are reasonable, having regard
 to the prevailing market prices at the relevant time where such market
 prices are available.
 
 6.  In respect of fixed deposits accepted from the public, the
 provisions of section 58A and 58AA or any other relevant provisions of
 the Act including the Companies (Acceptance of Deposits) Rules, 1975
 have been complied with. We have been informed that no order has been
 passed by Company Law Board or National Company Law Tribunal or RBI or
 any Court or any other Tribunal in this regard.
 
 7.  In our opinion, the Company has an internal audit system
 commensurate with the size & nature of its business.

 maintenance of Cost accounting records pursuant to the requirements of
