Auditor's Report (Maruti Suzuki India) Year End : Mar '11
1 .  We have audited the attached Balance Sheet of Maruti Suzuki India
 Limited (the “Company”), as at 31st March, 2011, and the
 related Profit and Loss Account 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 terms of sub-section (4A) of Section 227 of ‘The Companies
 Act, 1956’ of India (the ‘Act’) and on the basis of such checks of the
 books and records of the Company as we considered appropriate and
 according to the information and explanations given to us, we further
 report that:
 
 i) (a) The Company is maintaining proper records showing full
 particulars, including quantitative details and situation, of fixed
 assets.
 
 (b) The fixed assets are physically verified by the Management
 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. 974 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
 off by the Company during the year.
 
 ii) (a) The inventory (excluding stocks with third parties) has been
 physically verified by the Management during the year.  In respect of
 inventory lying with the third parties, these have substantially been
 confirmed by them. In our opinion, the frequency of verification is
 reasonable.
 
 (b) In our opinion, the procedures of physical verification of
 inventory followed by the Management are reasonable and adequate in
 relation to the size of the Company and the nature of its business.
 
 (c) On the basis of our examination of the inventory records, 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.
 
 iii) The Company has not taken / granted any loans, secured or
 unsecured, from / to companies, firms or other parties covered in the
 register maintained under Section 301 of the Act.
 
 iv) In our opinion and according to the information and explanations
 given to us, having regard to the explanation that certain items
 purchased are of special nature for which suitable alternative sources
 do not exist for obtaining comparative quotations, there is an adequate
 internal control system commensurate with the size of the Company and
 the nature of its business for the purchase of inventory, fixed assets
 and for the sale of goods and services. Further, on the basis of our
 examination of the books and records of the Company, and according to
 the information and explanations given to us, we have neither come
 across nor have been informed of any continuing failure to correct
 major weaknesses in the aforesaid internal control system.
 
 v) (a) In our opinion and according to the information and explanations
 given to us, the particulars of contracts or arrangements referred to
 in Section 301 of the Act have been entered in the register required to
 be maintained under that section.
 
 (b) In our opinion and according to the information and explanations
 given to us, there are no transactions made in pursuance of such
 contracts or arrangements and exceeding the value of Rs. Five Lakhs in
 respect of any party during the year, which have been made at prices
 which are not reasonable having regard to the prevailing market prices
 at the relevant time. In respect of purchase of goods and materials
 including components from the holding company, the prices paid for
 these items are not comparable as these are of special nature.
 
 vi) The Company has not accepted any deposits from the public within
 the meaning of Sections 58A and 58AA of the Act and the rules framed
 there under.

 prescribed under clause (d) of sub-section (1) of Section 209 of the
 Act and are of the opinion that prima facie, the prescribed accounts
 and records have been made and maintained. We have not, however, made a
 detailed examination of the records with a view to determine whether
 they are accurate or complete.
