We have audited the accompanying Ind AS Financial Statements of Jauss Polymers Limited("the Company") whichcomprises the Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2024, the Statement of Profit and Loss (including Other ComprehensiveIncome), Statement of Changes in Equity and statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to thefinancial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information(hereinafter referred to as "Ind AS Financial Statement").
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us,because of thesignificance of the matters described in the Basis for Adverse Opinion section of our report, the accompanyingstandalone financial statement do not give a true and fair view in conformity with the Indian Accounting Standardprescribed under section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 ( "the Act") and other accounting principles generallyaccepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2024, and loss (Financial PerformanceIncluding comprehensive income), changes in equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.
a) The Company's financial statements have been prepared using the going concern basis of accounting. The use ofthe going concern basis of accounting is appropriate unless management either intends to liquidate the Companyor to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
As per our audit, we found that there is a rapidly decline in the turnover during the year which leads to significantlosses in the current financial year and company has also diluted its plant and machinery in FY 2020-21 whichindicates that the company has ceased to operate. Hence these are the significant events or conditions which castthe material uncertainty on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
We extended our audit procedure to mitigate the uncertainty and found that
• management has not yet performed an assessment of the entity's ability to continue as a going concerndespite requesting management to make its assessment.
• management has not provided any plans for future actions in relation to its going concern assessment hencewe are unable to conclude whether the outcome of these plans is likely to improve the situation and whethermanagement's plans are feasible in the circumstances.
• The entity has not prepared a cash flow forecast to evaluation of management's plans for future actions.Hence there is also no realistic alternative to justify the management ability to continue as a going concern.
b) We draw attention to Note 4& Note 6 of Financial Statement which describes that Loan and Advances givenamounting to Rs. 490.10 lakhs include balances which are outstanding for substantial period of time. We havenot received confirmations for these balances and were unable to perform alternate audit procedures in respectof the same and accordingly, we are unable to comment on such balances.
We conducted our audit of the standalone financial statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs)issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI). Our responsibilities under those Standards are furtherdescribed in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone 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 Accoun¬tants of India together with the inde- pendence requirements that are relevant to our audit of the standalone financialstatements under the provisions of the Act and the Rules made there under, and we have fulfilled our other ethicalresponsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence wehave obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Except for the matter described in the basis for adverse opinion section, we have determined that there are no key auditmatters to be communicated in our report.
The Company's management and Board of Directors are responsible for the other information. The other informationcomprises the information included in the Company's annual report, but does not include the standalone financialstatements and our auditor's report thereon.
Our opinion on the standalone financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express anyform of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the standalone financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other informationand, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the standalone Ind As financialstatements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on thework we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information; we are requiredto report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
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 Ind AS Financial Statements that give a true and fairview of the financial position, financial performance including other comprehensive income, change in equity and cashflows of the Company in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) and accounting principles generallyaccepted in India, specified under section 133 of the Act read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules,2015, as amended. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with theprovisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and otherirregularities; selection and application of appropriate implementation and maintenance of accounting policies; makingjudgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequateinternal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accountingrecords, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the Standalone Ind AS Financial Statement that give a true andfair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the Standalone Ind AS Financial Statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company'sability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the goingconcern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or hasno realistic alternative but to do so.
Board of Directors is also responsible for overseeing the company's financial reporting process.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Standalone Ind AS Financial Statements as a wholeare free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes ouropinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordancewith SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and areconsidered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economicdecisions of users taken on the basis of these Standalone Ind AS Financial Statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional skepticismthroughout the audit. We also:-
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Standalone Ind AS Financial Statements, whether dueto fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence thatis sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatementresulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentionalomissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that areappropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Companies Act, 2013, we are also responsible forexpressing our opinion on whether the company has adequate internal financial controls system in place and theoperating effectiveness of such controls.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates andrelated disclosures made by management.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based onthe audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may castsignificant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertaintyexists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the Standalone Ind AS
Financial Statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based onthe audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions maycause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the Standalone Ind AS Financial Statements, includingthe disclosures, and whether the Standalone Ind AS Financial Statements represent the underlying transactionsand events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timingof the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify duringour audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical require¬ments regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonablybe thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of mostsignificance in the audit of the standalone financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key auditmatters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure aboutthe matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in ourreport because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interestbenefits of such communication.
