What the auditor said
PKF Sridhar & Santhanam LLP, Chartered Accountants, carried out a review of the statement, not an audit. The review is limited mainly to enquiries of company personnel and analytical procedures, so it gives less assurance than an audit. Its conclusion: based on the review, nothing has come to the auditor's attention that causes it to believe the statement has not disclosed the information required, or that it contains any material misstatement.
