Auditor's Report (Ansal Properties & Infrastructure) Year End : Mar '11
We have audited the attached Balance Sheet of Ansal Properties &
 Infrastructure Limited as at March 31, 2011 and also the Profit & Loss
 Account 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, Profit & Loss Account and Cash Flow Statement
 dealt with by this report are in agreement with the books of account;
 
 d) In our opinion, the Balance Sheet, Profit & Loss Account 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, 2011 and taken on record by the Board of Directors, we
 report that none of the directors is disqualified as on March 31, 2011
 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. B(4) of Schedule 17 wherein the company has claimed
 exemption of Rs. 39.91 lacs during the year in addition to exemption
 accounted for upto March 31, 2010 of Rs. 3408 lacs under section 80 IA
 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.
 
 ii.  Note no. B - 6(b) of Schedule 17 wherein the company is carrying
 project inventory of Rs. 16719 lacs for one of its Group Housing
 projects. The company has applied to the Authority for developing the
 project on the basis of revised Scheme announced by the Authority which
 is pending approval. 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. B -6 (a) of Schedule 17 wherein the company has given
 advances to land owning companies/ collaborators/ others for purchase
 of land/ others of Rs.16603 lacs. In the absence of details of land
 purchased/ end use for intended purposes and financial position of
 these parties, we understand from management that such advances are
 given in respect of ongoing transactions 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 cost of land to be
 incurred in future for one of its large Township projects and also not
 considered borrowing costs to be incurred in future in general for
 determining the project revenues, project inventory and debtors.
 Referring Note no. B-2 of Schedule 17, wherein according to the
 management the amount of these items cannot be determined at this
 stage, 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.
 
 h) The Company has, during last year, 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 31st March, 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 31st March 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.
 
 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 Companies Act, 1956 in the manner so required and give a true
 and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally
 accepted in India:
 
 i) In the case of Balance Sheet, of the state of affairs of the Company
 as at March 31, 2011;
 
 ii) In the case of Profit and Loss Account, of the Profit for the year
 ended on that date; and
 
 iii) 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)
 
 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 and interest due thereon and overdue amounts are
 not required.
 
 (c) The company has taken deposits from one of the directors 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. 9 lacs
 and the year end balance was also Rs. 9 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.
 
 4.  In our opinion, and according to the information and explanations
 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 belief and according to the
 information and explanations given to us, we are of the opinion that
 particulars of contracts or arrangements that need to be entered into
 the register maintained under section 301 of the Companies Act, 1956
 have been so entered.
 
 (b) In our opinion and according to the information and 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 Companies Act, 1956 including the Companies (Acceptance of Deposit)
 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.
 
 8.  The Central Government has not prescribed for maintenance of Cost
 Accounting records pursuant to the requirements of clause (d) of
 sub-section (1) of section 209 of the Companies Act, 1956 for any of
 the activities of the company.
