STATUTORY AUDITORS REMARKS AND MANAGEMENTS REPLIES THEREUPON

1) Regarding Auditors Observation on recoverability of long outstanding Trade Receivables,

There have been defaults in payment obligations by the trade receivables on due date and recoveries from them are not significant, due to economic slowdown especially in diamond sector and also on account of dispute amongst promoters. However, a settlement agreement was executed between the promoters with help of court mediation on 18th March 2014, post which the management has started taking all the initiatives to revive Company's operations. Nonetheless, the Trade receivables amounting to Rs.3,61,66,47,379/- have confirmed the balances by way of confirmations directly sent to auditors and/or Company. Looking at the past record regarding recovery from Trade receivables, the management is of the opinion that trade receivables outstanding for more than 6 months from the date they are due for payments are good and recoverable and therefore no provision is required to be made against these Trade Receivables

2) Regarding auditors observation on Inventory valuation wherein the determination of estimated net realizable value and specification identification which involves technical judgment of the management has been relied upon by auditors:

The management is of the opinion that the inventories are properly valued.

3) Regarding auditors' observation wherein they have referred to Note No. 37(a) of notes on Financial statements wherein the management has confirmed that no financial adjustment is required to be made in the financial statements for the terms & conditions of the settlement agreement executed and on account of various disputes, allegations and legal actions.

The above note is self explanatory and the management is of the view that no financial adjustment is required to be made in the financial statements since the promoters have already arrived at the settlement with the help of court mediation vide settlement agreement executed on March 18, 2014; the terms & conditions of which have been partially executed.

4) Regarding auditors' observation wherein they have referred to Note No. 37(b) of notes on Financial statements; and have mentioned that factors such as non-realization of debtors, decrease in sales, non-payment of statutory dues and taxes, overdue creditors, defaults in repayment of loans and interest etc, indicate the liquidity crunch faced by the company.

The company expects faster debtors realization in near future. Moreover, with the formation of Joint Lenders Forum (JLF) by consortium of bankers in accordance with RBI guidelines, additional credit facilities are sanctioned / to be sanctioned by the consortium bankers, in order to enable the company to meet its working capital requirements and revive its operations.

5) Regarding auditors' observation wherein they have referred to Note No. 37(C) of notes on Financial statements, wherein the management has confirmed that it has provided interest wherever banks have not applied or have reversed the interest on loan. Any difference on account of interest and penal interest shall be accounted for as and when the interest is charged or settled by the banks. In case of one bank, interest to the tune of Rs. 1,49,61,987 has been charged in excess against which company has made representation to the bank. The management is very much confident that the same will be decided in the favour of the Company and therefore no provision for the same has been made in the financial statements for the year ended March 31,2015.

The above note is self explanatory; and the management is of the view that it has in its best judgment accounted for all probable interest liability; and difference, if any, will be accounted for as and when the interest is charged or settled by the bank.

6) Observations by the auditors made in point no. vii (a) & (b) of the Annexure to Auditors Report:

The management states that the company is committed to pay all its outstanding undisputed statutory dues. Regarding the disputed outstanding taxes, the Company is confident that it will be able to get favorable orders.

7) Regarding observation made by the Auditors at Point No. (ix) of the Annexure to Auditors Report:

Certain factors such as promoters dispute, slow debtors realization, inadequate inventory levels, global economic slow down, highly volatile foreign exchange rates and significant weakening of rupee against the dollar had material impact on the liquidity position of the Company, due to which there was default in payment of a few bank debts obligations. Some of the overdue outstanding debts had already been repaid during FY 2014-15 and in case of continuing defaults; some of the debts have been repaid during the FY 2015-16. The company is committed towards honoring all its debt obligations.

SECRETARIAL AUDITORS REMARKS AND MANAGEMENTS REPLIES THEREUPON

1) Auditors Observation made on delay in payment of statutory dues

AUDITORS REMARKS AND MANAGEMENTS REPLIES THEREUPON

1) Regarding auditors observation on Inventory valuation wherein the determination of estimated net realizable value and specification identification which involves technical judgment of the management has been relied upon by auditors:

The management is of the opinion that the inventories are properly valued.

2) Regarding auditors observation wherein they have referred to Note No. 36 of notes on Financial statements wherein the management has confirmed that no financial adjustment is required to be made in the financial statements on account of various allegations, counter allegation and legal cases amongst promoters and also on account of dispute amongst promoters and settlement agreement executed thereafter.

The above note is self explanatory and the management is of the view that no financial adjustment is required to be made in the financial statements since the promoters have already arrived at the settlement with the help of court mediation vide settlement agreement executed on March 18, 2014.

3) Regarding Auditors Observation on recoverability of long outstanding Trade Receivables,

The management is of the opinion that, the recovery has been slow, due to global economic slowdown especially in diamond sector and also on account of dispute between promoters, which had temporarily affected the working capital cycle adversely. However, a settlement agreement has been executed between the promoters with help of court mediation on 18th March 2014, post which the management hopes that the company would be able to revive its operations. Nonetheless, the company has directly obtained confirmation from all its overseas Trade receivables and the management is of the opinion that looking at the past record, the Trade Receivables are good and recoverable and therefore no provision is required to be made against these Trade Receivables.

4) Regarding observations by the auditors made in point no. ix (a) & (b) of the Annexure to Auditors Report:

The management states that the company is committed to pay all its outstanding undisputed statutory dues. Regarding the disputed outstanding taxes, the Company is confident that it will be able to get favorable orders.

5) Regarding observation made by the Auditors at Point No. (xi) of the Annexure to Auditors Report:

Certain factors such as promoters dispute, slow debtors realization, global economic slow down, adverse forex movement and significant weakening of rupee against the dollar had significant impact on the liquidity position of the Company, due to which there was delay in payment of a few bank debts obligations. Some of the overdue outstanding debts have already been repaid during the Financial Year 2014-15. The company is committed towards honoring all its debt obligations.
