AUDITOR'S REPORT

You can view full text of the latest Director's Report for the company.
Year End :2024-03 

We have audited the standalone financial statements of MELSTAR INFORMATION TECHNOLOGIES
LIMITED (“the Company”), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2024, and the
Statement of Profit and Loss, Statement of changes in Equity and Statement of Cash flows for the year
then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting
policies and other explanatory information.

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the
aforesaid standalone financial statements 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, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2024, and profit, changes in
equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.

Basis for Qualified Opinion

1. With reference to Note No 27 (l) regarding the balance of Trade Payables, Trade Receivables,
Loans, Advances, current liabilities, borrowing from others etc. being not confirmed by the
parties due to pending reconciliation the management has not sent direct confirmations to
parties and hence our inability to state whether these balances are recoverable /payable to
the extent stated.

2. The company has accumulated losses exceeding the share capital and reserves and its net
worth has been fully eroded. These conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty
that may cast significant doubt about the company's ability to continue as a going concern.
However, the standalone financial results of the Company have been prepared on a going
concern basis because of the reasons stated in the Note No. 27 (j) to the standalone financial
results.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under
section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013. Our responsibilities under those Standards are
further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Code of
Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India together with the ethical
requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements under the provisions
of the Companies Act, 2013 and the Rules thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical
responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the Code of Ethics. We believe that
the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our
opinion.

Emphasis of Matter

We draw attention to Note No. 27 (i) regarding an application for initiation of corporate insolvency
resolution process of Melstar Information Technologies Limited was admitted by the Hon ble National

Company Law Tribunal, Mumbai vide order dated October 1, 2019, under the Insolvency and
Bankruptcy Code, 2016 (IBC) and hence currently, the Company is under corporate insolvency
resolution process (CIRP).

Our opinion is not modified in respect of these matters.

Key Audit Matters

Key Audit Matters (“KAM”) are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most
significance in our audit of the standalone financial statements of the current period. These matters
were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our
opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. We have determined the
matters described below to be the Key Audit Matters (“KAM”) to be communicated in our report.

Key Audit Matter

Auditor's Response

Allowance for credit losses

The Company determines the allowance for credit
losses based on historical loss experience adjusted
to reflect current and estimated future economic
conditions. The Company considered current and
anticipated future economic conditions relating to
industries the Company deals with and the
geographical location where it operates.

In calculating expected credit loss, the Company
has also considered credit reports and other
related credit information for its customers to
estimate the probability of default in future.

We identified allowance for credit losses as a key
audit matter because the Company exercises
significant judgment in calculating the expected
credit losses.

Our audit procedures related to the allowance
for credit losses for trade receivables included
the following, among others:

We tested the effectiveness of controls over the

• development of the methodology for the
allowance for credit losses, including
consideration of the current and estimated
future economic conditions

• completeness and accuracy of information
used in the estimation of probability of default
and

• Computation of the allowance for credit
losses.

For a sample of customers:

We tested the input data such as credit reports
and other credit related information used in
estimating the probability of default by
comparing them to external and internal
sources of information.

We tested the mathematical accuracy and
computation of the allowances by using the
same input data used by the Company.

Investment impairment assessment

The Company has investments in subsidiaries.
These investments are accounted for at cost less
impairment. If an impairment exists, the
recoverable amounts of the above investment are
estimated in order to determine the extent of the
impairment loss, if any.

Determination of triggers for impairment in value
of these investments and recoverable amount
involves significant estimates and judgements.

Evaluation of impairment risk and assessing
whether triggers exist for any investment based
on consideration of external and internal
factors affecting the value and performance of
the investment.

Our audit procedures included:

• Obtained management assessment of
recoverable amount for investments where
impairment risk is identified.

• Evaluated the mathematical accuracy of
the cash flow

projection and assessed the underlying key
assumptions in management's valuation
models used to determine recoverable amount
considering external data, including
assumptions of projected EBITDA, revenue
growth rate, terminal growth rates, discount
rates, and assessed the sensitivity of the
assumptions on the impairment assessment
and assessed the forecasts against the historical
performance

Assessed the appropriateness of the related
disclosures in the standalone financial

statements.

Information Other than the Financial Statements and Auditor's Report Thereon

The Company's Board of Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information
comprises the information included in the Board report but does not include the financial statements
and our auditor's report thereon. The other information is expected to be made available to us after
the date of this auditor's report.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express
any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other
identified as above when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider whether such other
information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements, or our knowledge obtained in
the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

When we read the other information, if we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein,
we are required to communicate the matter to those charged with governance. We have nothing to
report in this regard.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Standalone
Financial Statements

The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the
Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”) with respect to the preparation of these standalone financial
statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance, changes in
equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally
accepted in India, including the accounting Standards specified under section 133 of the Act. This
responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the
provisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting
frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making
judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and
maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring the
accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation

of the financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement,
whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the Board of Directors is responsible for assessing the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going
concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Board of Directors either intends
to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting
process.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole
are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report
that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee
that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it
exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in
aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on
the basis of these financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain
professional skepticism throughout the audit. We are also:

• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due
to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain
audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of
not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from
error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the
override of internal control.

• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Act, we are
also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the Company has adequate internal
financial controls with reference to financial statements in place and the operating effectiveness
of such controls.

• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting
estimates and related disclosures made by management.

• Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting
and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to
events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw
attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such
disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit

evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions
may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including
the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and
events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the Financial Statements that, individually or in
aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the
Financial Statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors
in (i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to
evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the Financial Statements.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned
scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in
internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with
relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all
relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and
where applicable, related safeguards.
