Auditor's Report (Oudh Sugar Mills) Year End : Jun '10
1.  We have audited the attached Balance Sheet of THE OUDH SUGAR MILLS
 LIMITED as at 30th June, 2010 and also the Profit and Loss Account and
 the Cash Flow Statement for the year ended on that date, annexed
 thereto. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
 Companys 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 fi
 nancial 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 signifi cant 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.
 
 3.  As required by the Companies (Auditors Report) Order, 2003 (as
 amended) issued by the Central Government of India in terms of
 sub-section (4A) of Section 227 of the Companies Act, 1956, we enclose
 in the Annexure a statement on the matters specifi ed in paragraphs 4
 and 5 of the said Order.
 
 4.  Without qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to Note No. 7 on
 Schedule 23, regarding accounting of Sugarcane purchases at Hargaon &
 Rosa Sugar units in Uttar Pradesh @ Rs. 110 per quintal for sugar
 season 2007-2008 as against the State Advised Price (SAP) of Rs. 125
 per quintal in view of the interim order dated 8th September 2008 of
 the Honble Supreme Court. The maximum liability on account of above
 comes to Rs. 2422.74 Lakh. However, since the matter is subjudice, the
 actual impact, if any, is presently undeterminable and hence, no
 provision thereof has been made in the accounts.
 
 5.  Further to our comments in the Annexure referred to above, we
 report that :–
 
 (i) 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;
 
 (ii) 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;
 
 (iii) The Balance Sheet, Profit and Loss Account and Cash Flow
 Statement dealt with by this report are in agreement with the books of
 account as submitted to us;
 
 (iv) In our opinion, the Balance Sheet, Profit and 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, subject to our comments in para (vi) below.
 
 (v) On the basis of written representations received from the directors
 as on 30th June, 2010 and taken on record by the Board of Directors, we
 report that none of the directors is disqualifi ed as on 30th June,
 2010 from being appointed as a director in terms of Clause (g) of sub
 section (1) of Section 274 of the Companies Act, 1956;
 
 (vi) Attention is drawn to Note No. 8(a) on schedule 23 regarding
 recognition of Deferred Tax Asset (DTA) (net) of Rs. 3,054.68 Lakh up
 to 30th June 2010, based on the future profitability projections made
 by the management. However, we are unable to express any opinion on the
 above projections and their consequent impact, if any, on such
 recognition of Deferred Tax Asset. Had the impact of above been
 considered, there would be a loss of Rs. 11,282.58 Lakh as against the
 reported loss of Rs. 8,227.90 Lakh for the year and the profit and
 loss account debit balance would be Rs. 8,046.06 Lakh as against the
 reported figure of Rs. 4,991.38 Lakh as on the balance sheet date.
 
 In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the
 explanations given to us, the said Statements of Account, Subject to
 the matters stated in para (vi) above, 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:
 
 (a) in the case of Balance Sheet, of the state of affairs of the
 Company as at 30th June, 2010;
 
 (b) in the case of Profit and Loss Account, of the loss of the Company
 for the year ended on that date; and
 
 (c) in the case of Cash Flow Statement, of the cash fl ows for the year
