I have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements of
Info-Drive Software Limited ('the Company'), which comprise the balance
sheet as at 31 March 2015, the statement of profit and loss and the
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:
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 and presentation of these standalone financial
statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position,
financial performance 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, read with
Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014. This responsibility
also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance
with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding 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.
Auditor's Responsibility:
My responsibility is to express an opinion on these standalone
financial statements based on my audit. I have taken into account the
provisions of the Act, the accounting and auditing standards and
matters which are required to be included in the audit report under the
provisions of the Act and the Rules made there-under.
I conducted my audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing
specified under Section 143(10) of the Act. 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 the 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 financial control relevant
to the Company's preparation of the financial statements that give a
true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing
an opinion on whether the Company has in place an adequate internal
financial controls system over financial reporting and the operating
effectiveness of such controls. An audit also includes evaluating the
appropriateness of the accounting policies used and the reasonableness
of the accounting estimates made by the Company's Directors, as well as
evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
I believe that the audit evidence I have obtained is sufficient and
appropriate to provide a basis for my audit opinion on the standalone
financial statements.
Opinion:
1. According to the information and explanations given to me and in
accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013, the Annual
e-filing forms and event based forms with regards to increase in
authorised share capital, sub-division of equity shares of the company,
allotment of Foreign Currency Convertible Bonds (FCCBs) and allotment
of equity shares consequent upon conversion of FCCBs were pending
filing as on 31st March 2015.
2. Without qualifying my opinion:
a. I draw attention to Note e of Notes forming part of financial
statements for the year ended March 31, 2015 in connection with the
value of investments:
The value of investments in Info-Drive Software Inc, USA (wholly owned
subsidiary) have diminished and eroded the entire capital of the
company as on the date of balance sheet. No provision for such
diminution in value of investments is made in the books of the company.
b. I draw attention to Note u of Notes forming part of financial
statements for the year ended March 31, 2015 in connection with the
advance received from M/s. Persian Dam Keshte Aria, Tehran, Iran.
The company had received an amount of Rs.4,00,12,568/- from the above
said company towards 'Feed Corn Purchases.' As the swift message for
advance amount received had a wrong mention of purpose, RBI approval
was accorded in the month of June 2014 for refund of advance remittance
received to the remitter in Iran and the amount is yet to be remitted.
Subject to the above, in my opinion and to the best of our information
and according to the explanations given to me, 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 31 March 2015 and its profit and its cash
flows for the year ended on that date. Report on Other Legal and
Regulatory Requirements:

Order') issued by the Central Government of India in terms of sub-
section (11) of section 143 of the Act, I give in the Annexure a

Order, to the extent applicable.
