 We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally

 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 (Auditor''s Report) Order, 2003 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 specified in paragraphs 4 and 5 of the said Order.

 of Prima Industries Ltd valued at cost amounting to f 1,01,95,280/-. As
 on 31st March, 2012, it has been identified that there is a decline in
 the value of investment which is not temporary in nature. The standards
