Auditor's Report (Patni Computer Systems) Year End : Dec '10
We have audited the attached Balance Sheet of Patni Computer Systems
 Limited (the Company) as at 31 December 2010, 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.
 
 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.
 
 As required by the Companies (Auditors Report) Order, 2003 (the
 Order) issued by the Central Government of India in terms of
 sub-section (4A) of Section 227 of the Companies Act, 1956 (“the Act”),
 we enclose in the Annexure, a statement on the matters specified in
 paragraphs 4 and 5 of the said Order.
 
 Further to our comments in the Annexure referred to 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 purposes 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, the Profit and Loss Account and the Cash Flow
 Statement dealt with by this report are in agreement with the books of
 account;
 
 d) in our opinion, the Balance Sheet, the Profit and Loss Account and
 the Cash Flow Statement dealt with by this report comply with the
 Accounting Standards referred to in subsection (3C) of Section 211 of
 the Act;
 
 e) on the basis of written representations received from the directors
 of the Company, as at 31 December 2010 and taken on record by the Board
 of Directors, we report that none of the directors are disqualified as
 at 31 December 2010 from being appointed as a director in terms of
 clause (g) of sub-section (1) of Section 274 of the Act; and
 
 f) in our opinion, and to the best of our information and according to
 the explanations given to us, the said accounts give the information
 required by the Act in the manner so required and give a true and fair
 view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in
 India :
 
 i) in the case of the Balance Sheet, of the state of affairs of the
 Company as at 31 December 2010;
 
 ii) in the case of the Profit and Loss Account, of the profit for the
 year ended on that date; and
 
 iii) in the case of the Cash Flow Statement, of the cash flows for the

 Annexure to the Auditors Report (Referred to in our report of even
 date)
 
 1 a) The Company has maintained proper records showing
 full particulars, including quantitative details and situation, of
 fixed assets.
 
 b) The Company has a regular programme of physical verification of its
 fixed assets, by which all fixed assets are verified in a phased manner
 over a period of three years. During the current year, as part of a
 cyclical plan, the Company has carried out physical verification of
 certain fixed assets and no material discrepancies were noticed upon
 such verification. In our opinion, this periodicity of physical
 verification is reasonable having regard to the size of the Company and
 the nature of its assets.
 
 c) Fixed assets disposed off during the year were not substantial and,
 therefore, do not affect the going concern assumption.
 
 2. The Company is a service company, primarily rendering IT consulting
 and software development services.  Accordingly it does not hold any
 physical inventories.  Thus, paragraph 4(ii) of the Order is not
 applicable.

 unsecured, to/from companies, firms or other parties covered in the
 register maintained under Section 301 of the Act.
 
 4. In our opinion and according to the information and explanations
 given to us, there is an adequate internal control system commensurate
 with the size of the Company and nature of its business with regard to
 purchase of fixed assets and with regard to sale of services. The
 activities of the Company do not involve purchase of inventory and the
 sale of goods. We have not observed any major weakness in the internal
 control system during the course of the audit.
 
 5. 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, the transactions made in pursuance of contracts and
 arrangements referred to in (a) above and exceeding the value of Rs. 5
 lakh with any party during the year have been made at prices which are
 reasonable having regard to the prevailing market prices at the
 relevant time.

 rendered by the Company.
