Restatement for the year ended 31st March 2022, 31st March 2021 and as at 01st April 2020 A) EAC Opinion: Company was charging off the utilities generated from trial run production and consumed internally to Profit and Loss Account and only net commissioning expenses were included under Capital Work in progress. In the absence of any specific guidance under Indian Accounting Standard, as to value of trial run production consumed internally and the treatment thereof, the matter has been referred to the Expert Advisory Committee of ICAI by the Company, for a seeking an opinion on the said matter. On 26th July 2022 Company has received an opinion stating that Company is not correct in crediting CWIP with the value of utilities during trial run phase and consumed in ongoing commercial production and charging off the said amount to the Statement of Profit and Loss Account. Further, they have opined that financial statements are required to be restated since the accounting treatment w.r.t trial run production is not as per Indian Accounting Standards and thus the Company has to give effect to the same in accordance with Ind-AS 8, for all accounting periods, where such treatment was followed after applicability of Ind-AS. Accordingly such restatement is being done effective from FY 2017-18 onwards B) Change in Accounting Policy: Consequent to receipt of an EAC opinion Company has suitably modified its Accounting Policy w.r.t treatment of expenditure on account of utilities generated and internally consumed in compliance with EAC opinion. In accordance with Ind AS 8, ‘Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors’ and Ind AS 1, ‘Presentation of Financial Statements’, the Company has retrospectively restated its Balance Sheet as at 31st March 2022(Current Year), 31st March 2021(Previous Year) and 1st April 2020 (beginning of the preceding period) and Statement of Profit and Loss 191

44th Annual Report 2021-22 ANNEXURE “B” TO THE INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT (Referred to in Para 1 of the section ‘Report on Other Legal & Regulatory Requirements’ in our Independent Auditor’s Report to the mem- bers of the company on the Consolidated Ind AS Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2022.) Report On The Internal Financial Controls Under Clause (I) Of Sub-Section 3 Of Section 143 Of The Companies Act, 2013 (“The Act”) In conjunction with our audit of the Consolidated Ind AS Financial Statements of the Company as of and for the year ended 31 March 2022, we have audited the internal financial controls with reference to Consolidated Ind AS Financial Statements of Rashtriya Chemicals and Fertilizers Limited (“the Company”) and its Joint Ventures, which are companies incorporated in India as of March 31, 2022. Management’s Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls The respective Board of Directors of the Company and its Joint Ventures, which are Companies incorporated in India, are responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal controls over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Con- trols Over Financial Reporting (the “Guidance Note”) issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI). These respon- sibilities include the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to company’s policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Act. Auditors’ Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal financial controls with reference to Consolidated Ind AS Finan- cial Statement based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the ‘Guidance Note’ and the Standards on Auditing, issued by ICAI and deemed to be prescribed under section 143(10) of the Act, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls with reference to the Consolidated Ind AS Financial Statements. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls with respect to the Consolidated Ind AS Financial Statements was established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects. Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system with reference to the Consolidated Ind AS Financial Statement and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls with reference to the Consolidated Ind AS Financial Statements included obtaining an under- standing of internal financial controls with reference to Consolidated Ind AS Financial Statement, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the Consoli- dated Ind AS Financial Statement, whether due to fraud or error. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained and the audit evidence obtained by the other auditors of the Joint Ventures, in- corporated in India, in terms of their reports referred to in the “Other Matters” paragraph below, is sufficient and appropriate to pro- vide a basis for our audit opinion on the Company’s internal financial controls system with respect to Consolidated Ind AS Financial Statements. Meaning of Internal Financial Controls with reference to the Consolidated Ind AS Financial Statements A company's internal financial controls with reference to the Consolidated Ind AS Financial Statements is a process designed to pro- vide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of Consolidated Ind AS Financial State- ments for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal financial controls with reference to the Consolidated Ind AS Financial Statements include those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of Consolidated Ind AS Financial Statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only 208

Rashtriya Chemicals and Fertilizers Limited in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding pre- vention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the Consolidated Ind AS Financial Statements. Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls With reference to the Consolidated Ind AS Financial Statements Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls with reference to the Consolidated Ind AS Financial Statements, in- cluding the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls with reference to the Consolidated Ind AS Financial Statements to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial controls with reference to the Consolidated Ind AS Financial Statements may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the pol- icies or procedures may deteriorate. Opinion In our Opinion, to the best of our information and according to explanation given to us, the Company and its Joint Ventures, which are companies incorporated in India, have, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls with reference to the Con- solidated Ind AS Financial Statements in place and such internal financial controls with reference to the Consolidated Ind AS Financial Statements were operating effectively as at 31 March 2022, based on the internal controls over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note' on Audit of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting issued by the ICAI, except for Talcher Fertilizers Limited a joint controlled entity incorporated in India where the auditor of the joint controlled entity has qualified his opinion with respect to the following: a) Contravention of Stamp Act. b) Non adherence with respect to CVC circular pertaining to policy matters on tenders given on nomination basis, adoption of ac- counting software and hosting of contracts/orders above Rs. One Crore as per C&P Procedures of GAIL India guidelines. Other Matters Our aforesaid report under Section 143(3)(i) of the Act, on the adequacy and operating effectiveness of the internal financial controls with respect to financial statement, in so far as it relates to the three jointly controlled entities, namely Urvarak Videsh Limited, FACT RCF Building Products Limited and Talcher Fertilizers Limited, which are companies incorporated in India, is based solely on the report of the other auditor. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter. For M M Nissim & Co LLP For Gokhale & Sathe Chartered Accountants Chartered Accountants Firm Regn. No. 103264W Firm Regn. No.107122W/W100672 CA.
