Report on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Apple Credit
Corporation Limited ("the Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet
as at March 31, 2014, the Statement of Profit and Loss and Cash Flow
Statement for the year then ended, and a summary of significant
accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation of these financial
statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position,
financial performance of the Company in accordance with the Accounting
Standards referred to in sub-section (3C) of section 211 of the
Companies Act, 1956 ("the Act") read with the General circular 15/2013
dated 13th September of the Ministry of Corporate Affairs in respect of
section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013. This responsibility includes
the design, implementation and maintenance of internal control 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.
Auditor's Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance
with the Standards on Auditing issued by the Institute of Chartered
Accountants of India. Those Standards require that we comply with
ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free
from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures
selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of
the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether
due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor
considers internal control relevant to the Company's preparation and
fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company's
internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness
of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of the accounting
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit
evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a
basis for our audit opinion.
Basis for Qualified Opinion
Attention is invited to Note No. 19 to the Financial Statements
regarding preparation of the financial statements on "Going Concern"
basis, while the net worth being completely eroded and registration to
carry on the principal business as a Non Banking Finance Company being
cancelled by the regulators, the Company is currently pursuing the
realization of dues to the Company and settlement of existing Lenders.
Other than this, the Company has not been carrying on business activity
, notwithstanding this, the financial statements have been prepared as
that of a going concern and consequently the terminal values of various
assets and liabilities have not been determined, and we are therefore
unable to express our opinion whether the preparation of the financial
statements on a going concern assumption is appropriate or not
Qualified Opinion
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the
explanations given to us, except for the effects of the matters
described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion Paragraph, the 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:
a) in the case of the Balance Sheet, of the state of affairs of the
Company as at March 31, 2014;
b) in the case of the Statement of Profit and Loss, of the loss for the
year ended on that date; and
c) In the case of the Cash Flow Statement, of the cash flows for the
year ended on that date.
