14. REPLY TO THE COMMENTS IN THE AUDITORS' REPORT AND SECRETARIAL
AUDITOR'S REPORT Auditors' Report
| Sl. No. Qualification |
Management's Reply |
| 1 The process of inventory management adopted by the company is not satisfactory
and does not facilitate identification of old or obsolete stock. The company is holding
very old stocks, we are unable to verify the ageing of stocks due to lack of relevant
data, however these stocks are over 3-4 years old which we believe may not be saleable.
Total value of such stock of Garment and Fabric, not written off in our estimation is Rs
1014.84 Lakhs, stocks to this extent is overstated in the balance sheet and Profits to
this extent is overstated in the books. |
The Stock kept in Boxes at warehouse and management verified the stock once in a
year as per their policy. The stock lying at store were reconciled with the opening stock,
transferred to respective store during the year and stock sold during the year. Due to
heavy stocks it is impractical to verify each item every year. the same is excercised
every third year any any differences in stock at store will be recovered from Store
Manager. |
|
Hence annual verification is not carried out by the Management. Further management
has decided to start renting the dresses for various movies and TV serials hence old stock
/refurbished stock will be utilised to generate rental income. once the above project
implemented the old Stock will be moved to Tangible assets head. In our opinion and
according to our experience of last 20 years we will be able to generate good amount of
income out of the above old stock. |
| 2 Loan agreements for Short Term Loans and Advances given to various parties for a
total amount of Rs 1509.38 lakhs were not provided. Out of these loans given, certain
parties' amounting Rs, 483.06 lakhs, balances have not changed and there has been no
receipts from these parties in last 2 financial years. In the absence of any agreement and
balance confirmations from these parties and in view of no receipts from these parties in
past 2 years, we are of the opinion that loans and advances aggregating Rs 483.06 lakhs
may not be recoverable by the company. |
The Amount advanced to contractor for manufacturing of ethenical garments for
Company during 2020- 21. Due to COVID, Company faces cancellation of various order by the
customers and in turn we were unable to take the delivery from the contractor, we are
closely monitoring the advances and got assurance from the contractors/Supplier that they
will adjust the amount against future work contract. Management do not see any default in
refund of advance given to contractor. |
| 3 Management has written off Rs. 15.88 lakhs of receivables during the current
financial year. Out of the remaining debtors, debtors amounting to Rs 149.14 lakhs has nil
recoveries or any movement in last over 2 financial years. In our opinion, recoverability
of these receivables appears. doubtful. Profit to this extent is overstated in the books. |
The old outstanding includes certain debtors of closed branches and part business
of Ethnicity and disputed receivables were written off by the management. The other
receivables are confirmed and fully recoverable within six months from the date of signing
of this report. |
| 4 Management has written off Sundry Creditors amounting to Rs. 701.04 lakhs in the
current financial year as those amounts were pending for over 3 years. Management has
decided that these amounts are not payable and the board has decided to write off these
payables. For the remaining creditors amounting to Rs 384.18 lakhs, contact details and
address of parties are not provided for independent Balance confirmations by us. We are
unable to establish these liabilities in the absence of relevant documents and
confirmations. |
The Creditors who closed their business after COVID period and not following for
payments were W/off by the management after completion of 3. years from the date of
purchases. in accordance of limitation Act and after consultation with Legal department.
The Balance creditors are actual and payable by the Company. Company is utilysing the
funds for working capital management and to reduced the Cash credit limits during last
three years. |
| 5 Internal Control Processes are not commensurate with the size of the business. |
Company is following checker and maker system at all level of operation. The annual
stock verification at store is the only reason reported by the Auditor for Internal
Control. Management is ensuring the stakeholders that they will try to modify the same in
accordance with the Statutory Audit requirements. |
| 6 GST Annual Return 9 and 9C FY 2022-23 is not filed till date of this report. |
GST Audit under 9 and 9C is under preparation with CA and will be completed within
15days and copy of the same will be forwarded to Auditor for removal of this
qualification. |
| 7 We draw attention to the note no. 'f of the standalone financial results wherein
the undisputed income tax liability of Rs.2.91 Lakhs for FY 2017-18 are unpaid as on date
of this report. |
The above outstanding is offered to adjust against old refunds receivable by the
Company. Although the amount is not substantial to impact the financials of the Company,
company will pay the same and get the qualification cleared. |
| 8 We draw attention to the note no. 'e' of the standalone financial results wherein
the undisputed tax liability in relation to TDS on purchase for the F.Y. 2022-23 unpaid as
on date amounting to Rs 1.32 Lakhs. |
Undisputed Tax liability of 2022-23 was excess recorded in last year but since it
was reported in financial statement hence we were not allowed to reverse the same. We will
pay in favour of our contractor and get the refund from them hence it has no impact on the
financial statement. |
| 9. We draw attention to the note no. 'g' to 'j' of the standalone financial results
wherein the undisputed tax liability in relation to below items. are unpaid as on date of
