Auditor's Report (Maruti Suzuki India) Year End : Mar '12
1.  We have audited the attached Balance Sheet of Maruti Suzuki India
 Limited (the Company), as at 31st March, 2012, and the related
 Statement of Profit and Loss and Cash Flow Statement for the year ended
 on that date annexed thereto, which we have signed under reference to
 this report. 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 the 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, as
 amended by the Companies (Auditor''s Report) (Amendment) Order, 2004
 (together the Order) issued by the Central Government of India in

 of India (the ''Act'') and on the basis of such checks of the books and

 according to a phased programme designed to cover all the items, except
 furniture and fixtures, office appliances and certain other assets
 having an aggregate net book value of Rs. 1,645 million, over a period of
 three years which, in our opinion, is reasonable having regard to the
 size of the Company and the nature of its assets. Pursuant to the
 programme, a portion of the fixed assets have been physically verified
 by the Management during the year and no material discrepancies between
 the book records and the physical inventory have been noticed.
 
 (c) In our opinion and according to the information and explanations
 given to us, a substantial part of fixed assets has not been disposed
