Transmission Engineering Industries Limited (The company)-June 30, 2011

Reference is hereby made to financial statements of the Company for the above captioned year wherein management of the Company has reported disposal of investment in its subsidiary company named Transmission Motor Company (Private) Limited in its financial statements for the above captioned year.

These were 2,000,000 no of ordinary shares reflecting 77% holding in the subsidiary Company and were disposed of for Rs.4 million i.e. Rs.2 per share out of which Rs. 282,274 was received through cash and Rs.3,717,276 through cheque. As per SECP’s information received by us through its show cause, the amount of Rs. 3,717,276 is actually tax refund received by the Company from income tax department.

The audit evidences provided to us by the Company to support the disposal of investment in subsidiary Company is as follows:

Notice of Extraordinary General Meeting-EOGM as published in newspaper regarding disposal of investment;

Written request from Mrs. Shamim Rizvi to purchase shares of the Subsidiary Company;

Minutes of EOGM wherein decision to dispose off shares was approved;

Information disseminated to KSE through letter dated May 27, 20111 pertaining to disposal of shares;

Voucher evidencing authorization of transaction of disposal.

Representation letter was taken from management on fair presentation.

Considering the Order of refund by Income tax department as was produced to us by the SECP, all above evidences are proved to be fabricated and fake and integrity of management is no longer reliable.

Considering these facts, we are withdrawing our audit opinion expressed on such financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2011 dated October 06, 2011 and we are also withdrawing our conclusion on half yearly financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2011 dated February 28, 2012.
