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 but restricted to the following:-
Since in the referred period, a major incident took place at the work
site of the company. A robbery took place at the works site and major

robbery, many important papers were found missing and the company is
trying to recreate all the missing papers.

company has loss to tune of Rs.16,064.84 Lacs which has eroded the
company capital and the net worth becomes negative and still the
liabilities on the company are huge. The company is indebted to
bankers; statutory liabilities are also here and not being paid up from
more than six months and outstanding liabilities to many trade payables
which is again a point of concern.
