Auditor's Report (Hindustan Flurocarbons) Year End : Mar '12
We have audited the attached Balance Sheet of Hindustan Fluorocarbons
 Ltd., Hyderabad, as at March 31, 2012 the Statement of profit and Loss
 and the Cash Flow Statement for the year ended on that date, which are
 revised statements of the original Balance Sheet and Statement of
 Profit and Loss covered by the audit report of Hindustan Fluorocarbons
 Ltd., dated 25.05.2012. We have considered the earlier audit report
 dated 25.05.2012 on the original accounts and also revised report dated
 13.07.2012 and have examined the changes made therein which are as
 under:
 
 The reversal of excess provision of Gratuity amounting to Rs.65.89
 lakhs has now been treated as Other non operating Income instead of
 Exceptional Item, however due to change, there is no impact on profit
 for the year from continuing operations.
 
 Revised Audit Report:
 
 In the light of C & AG''s observations under Section 619(4) of the
 Companies Act, 1956, on the accounts of the company, the above Audit
 Report Dated 13.07.2012 is revised by modifying sub Paras 1(d) &
 1(f)(V). This report is in substitution of our earlier report dated
 13.07.2012.
 
 These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company''s
 management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the
 Financial Statements based on our audit.
 
 We conducted our audit in accordance with Audit 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 
 Statements presentation. We believe that our audit provides a
 reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
 I. As required by the Companies (Auditor''s Report) Order, 2003, issued
 by the Central Government of India in terms of subsection (4A) of
 section 227 of the Companies Act, 1956, we enclose in the Annexure here
 to a statement of the matters specified in paragraphs 4 & 5 of the said
 Order.
 
 II. Further to our comments in the Annexure referred to in paragraph I
 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 and Loss and the Cash Flow
 Statements dealt with by this report are in agreement with the books of
 accounts.
 
 (d) In our opinion, the Balance Sheet, Statement of Profit and Loss and
 the Cash Flow Statement dealt with this report comply with the
 Accounting Standards referred to in subsection (3C) of Section 211 of
 the Companies Act. 1956, except AS – 6, AS- 15 & AS – 29.
 
 (e) As per the Notification No. GSR. 829 (e) dated 21.10.2003 issued by
 the Central Government clause(G) of sub-section(1) of Section 274 of
 the Companies Act, 1956, is not applicable to the Government Company
 and hence we offer no comment as to whether any of the Directors are
 disqualified from being appointed as the Directors in terms of the said
 section.
 
 (f) In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to
 the explanations given to us, the said accounts read together with the
 Significant Accounting Policies and Notes thereon, subject to following
 qualifications;
 
 (I) The Company had incurred Rs.284.14 lakhs and Rs. 17.83 lakhs as
 refurbishment expenditure on Plant & Machinery during the Financial
 Year 2008-09 & 2009-10 respectively. As per the guidelines laid down in
 scheme of BIFR, Modified Draft Rehabilitation Scheme (MDRS), it has
 been stipulated that this sum shall be written off in 5 equal annual
 installments. Accordingly, during the current financial year, a sum of
 the Rs.61.49 lakhs has been written off on pro – rata basis. This
 accounting treatment is a deviation from Accounting Standard ( AS-6)
 issued by The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) and
 incorporated as a mandatory accounting standard in Section 211(3C) of
 the Companies Act 1956;
 
 (II) An amount of Rs.223.57 lakhs was incurred towards VRS payments for
 31 employees in accordance with BIFR''s Modified Draft Rehabilitation
 Scheme (MDRS) in Jan 2009.  As per scheme, this amount is to be
 amortized and charged to P & L Account over a period of 3 years on
 pro-rata basis. Accordingly, the balance of Rs.37.27 Lakhs has been
 amortized/written off during the year to Statement of profit & loss.
 This is in accordance with BIFR''s Modified Draft Rehabilitation Scheme
 (MDRS). However, the aforesaid accounting treatment is a deviation from
 the Accounting Standard (AS-15) issued by The Institute of Chartered
 Accountants of India (ICAI) and incorporated as a mandatory accounting
 standard in Section 211(3C) of the Companies Act;
 
 (III) The arrears payable on account of pay fixation in the revised
 scale with effect from 01-01-1997 vide wage revision settlement as per
 DPE guidelines, have had not been provided for in the books of the
 company.  The arrears payable at the close of the year was Rs.1160
 lakhs (Pr. year Rs.1552 Lakhs).  As per BIFR-MDRS, the company has
 implemented the wage revision for officers and non officers'' with
 effect from December 2010 and the arrears payable for the period before
 that date has not been charged to profit and loss account on account of
 categorically stipulation made under the scheme that arrears are to be
 released subject to availability of funds. The company has accordingly
 not provided for. This liability has been disclosed under contingent
 liability in the financial statements;
 
 (IV) Trade Receivables, Trade payables, sundry balances of debit and
 credit of parties are subject to confirmation and review by the
 management, give the information required by the Companies Act, 1956 in
 the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with
