Auditor's Report (Geometric) Year End : Mar '11
1.  We have audited the attached Balance Sheet of GEOMETRIC LIMITED as
 at March 31, 2011, the Profit and 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.
 
 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 the Companies (Auditor''s Report) Order, 2003, issued
 by the Central Government of India in terms of Section 227 (4A) of the
 Companies Act, 1956, we annex hereto a statement on the matters
 specified in paragraphs 4 and 5 of the said Order.

 subsidiary amounting to Rs. 879,661,684 (previous year - Rs.
 777,576,645). As stated in the said note, the above loans and debts due
 from the subsidiary, in spite of the erosion in net worth, are
 considered to have a value on realization in the ordinary course of
 business at least equal to the amount at which they are stated. The
 management has implemented various cost reduction measures and revamped
 the business thereof and is proposing a restructuring of the
 investments and repatriation of the dues.
 
 5.  Further to our comments in the Annexure referred to in paragraph 3
 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.

 the explanations given to us, the said accounts read with the 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
