SEPARATE AUDIT REPORT OF THE COMPTROLLER AND AUDITOR GENERAL


OF INDIA ON THE REVISED ACCOUNTS OF TELANGANA STATE
ELECTRICITY REGULATORY COMMISSION FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST
MARCH 2022.

1. We have audited the attached Balance Sheet of Telangana State Electricity Regulatory
Commission (TSERC) as at 31 March 2022 and the Income and Expenditure Account,
Receipts and Payments Account for the year ended 31 March 2022 under Section 19(2) of the
Comptroller and Auditor General’s (Duties, Powers and Conditions of Service) Act, 1971 read
with Section 104(2) of the Electricity Act, 2003. Preparation of these financial statements is
the responsibility of the TSERC’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements based on our audit.
2. This Separate Audit Report contains the comments of the Comptroller & Auditor General of
India (CAG) on the accounting treatment only with regard to classification; conformity with
best accounting practices, accounting standards, disclosure norms, etc. Audit observations on
financial transactions with regard to compliance with the Law, Rules and Regulations
(Propriety and Regularity), efficiency-cum-performance aspects etc., if any, are reported
through Inspection Reports/CAG’s Audit Reports separately.
3. We have conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in
India. These standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatements. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidences supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of
financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
4. Based on the preliminary observations made by us, the accounts of the Commission have been
revised. Due to revision, the excess of income over expenditure has decreased by Rs
