Dear FTCCIates,It gives me great pleasure to present the 102 Annual Report of the Federation along with the Annual Accounts and the Auditor’s Report for the year 2018-19.

I was truly honored to head this 102 year old prestigious organization and it has been a very eventful year for us all. As the voice of Industry and Business in the States of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh since 1917, the Federation always strives to promote a diverse, vibrant and sustainable business community across the region. I made my best efforts to fulfill the objectives, and Mission and Vision of the Federation in my tenure as the office bearer in the last three years. As I now lay down my office of the President after completion of my tenure, I feel I can look back with the satisfaction of having done my best.

I take this opportunity to inform the members that the Federation has now taken a conscious decision to float two independent organizations to fulfill the needs and aspirations of industry and trade in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh. The decision was partly inspired by the political situation and more importantly, it was felt that the office bearers or the Managing Committee members were unable to take up the required activities in AP due to complete shifting of government to Amaravathi, the capital of AP. In the interests of the industry, trade and commerce of both the States, the name of FTAPCCI is now changed to FTCCI (Federation of Telangana Chambers of Commerce and Industry) and registration of FAPCCI (Federation of Andhra Pradesh Chambers of Commerce and Industry) is in progress.

The year 2018-19 was an eventful year not just for the Federation, bur for the country as a whole. The 17th Lok Sabha Elections have once again given mandate to NDA government to lead the country. Prime Minister Mr. Narendra Modi’s quote “we walk together, we move together, we think together, we resolve together, and together we take this country forward” had helped India to become fastest growing economy in the world. India’s

emergence as a global economic power is an outcome of globalization, digitization, favorable demographics and key reforms like GST, Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code and liberalization of FDI norms. India’s rank in global ‘ease of doing business’ jumped 23 levels in 2019 due to fundamental reforms introduced by the government.

The performance of Indian economy is phenomenal in certain areas and is improving its world rankings surpassing many countries. For instance India has retained its position as the third largest startup base in the world, and Asia’s most investment savvy economy. I must say that India is passing through a phase where rapid developments are taking place on technology and innovation side, young generation is willing to take risks and start their own industries and people, in general, are inclined towards spending more on goods and services in an effort to improve their living conditions.

As the GST journey progressed, there was a growing realization of its far-reaching impact. During the year, the Government adopted a refreshed and expeditious approach in addressing challenges faced by industry. The authorities have been quick to address public concerns by issuing a series of notifications, clarifications, press releases and FAQs, to resolve a wide range of issues. Its extensive use of social media, especially on Twitter, was unheard of till now. Furthermore, the Government has launched various web-based mobile applications to facilitate dissemination of information on a real-time basis. Several working groups have been formed to work on sector-specific issues. In addition, the GST Council has convened numerous meetings during the last one year to address industry’s concerns, and has to a large extent resolved issues. I am proud to say that most of the suggestions given by the Federation on E-way Bills system, Input tax credit, GST rates on various goods and services were considered and implemented by the Council.

The interim budget for 2019-20 was presented by

PRESIDENTMessage

In-Charge Finance Minister Sri Piyush Goyal in Lok Sabha on 1st February with a total outlay of Rs. 27.8 lakh crore. The salaried middle class got the biggest bonanza of full rebate on income tax on incomes of Rs. 5 lakh per annum benefitting 30 million tax payers, including small businesses. This is going to benefit the industry indirectly by raising the disposable income and increase in consumption.

A new pension scheme has been proposed to benefit at least 100 million unorganised labourers, providing an old-age pension of Rs 3,000 per month. I am glad that the government of India has taken care of social security for the workers in unorganized sector.

FTCCI welcomes the proposal of Mr. Suresh Prabhu, then Union Minister for Commerce and Industry to recognise the efforts of District Administration for improving the Ease of Doing Business at local level by presenting the Awards. We completely agree that the increase in economic growth rate at District level (Gross District Domestic Product GDDP) by 3% to 4% will lead to much higher increase in overall growth rate (GDP) of the economy.

The thrust given to the exports by the government of India by announcing the Agriculture Export Policy, Air Cargo Policy for export and import, allocation of Rs. 132 crore to remove as much human interference as possible to improve ease of doing business for exporters are going to help increase India’s share in world exports.

The Federation, in its endeavor to promote trade, invites the foreign delegations and during the year FTCCI hosted delegations from Indonesia, Italy, Korea, Russia, Somalia, Switzerland, and Bosnia. The mutual opportunities for trade and investment are explored and the participation of Telangana government representatives ensured that the visit of the delegations was fruitful.

The Federation has organized a seminar on “Business Opportunities with United Nations” to create awareness among the entrepreneurs the huge amount of business opportunities available with United Nations Organization and its Agencies like UNICEF, UNIDO, WHO, ILO, IAEA etc for the first time in the states of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh. I am pleased to inform that, sequent to the seminar, the United Nations Procurement Division has sent a Procurement Officer from New York to give two-day training program on how to identify the opportunities, how to register on UNGM, dos and don’ts

while participating in the Bidding to the officials of TSTS and IT Department, TSTPC, APEDB and FTCCI.

Low Employability of graduates in various fields like engineering, IT & C, management, pharmacy and other fields is one of the major problems faced by industry. Vocational training and skill development, in recent years, is making headway with the various measures taken by the State and Central governments.

The Federation has always been playing a proactive role in supporting the State governments and we are proud that two Telugu speaking states are leading the country in ‘Ease of Doing Business’. Telangana has so far attracted over Rs. 1.61 lakh crore investments after implementing TS-iPASS, the state’s new industrial policy which came into being in 2015. Nearly 10,000 new industries came to the State and more than 11 lakh new jobs were created in these four years, according to the latest report. The government has succeeded in making Telangana an attractive destination for investors with its business friendly policies. But there is long pending of release of incentives sanctioned to eligible industrial units that is affecting the financial health of the MSMEs in the State. The Federation has submitted representations to the government to arrange for release of pending incentive amounts and strengthen the MSME sector in the state. We request the government of Telangana to sanction Rs 2000 crore in the forthcoming budget for industrial promotion and also to include release of sanctioned incentives in the TS-iPASS system.

The state of Andhra Pradesh, with its industry friendly, sectoral policies attracted investors to the state in large numbers and many prestigious, international organizations started their operations in the state. AP has attracted over Rs. 823942 crore since 2015. More than 18500 new industries came to the state and almost 7.5 lakh jobs were created in the last four years. The Federation requests the new government to allocate Rs 1500 crore budget for industrial promotion in FY 2019-20

We are very proud that both Telugu speaking states have registered double digit growth and poised to become one of the top 5 industrially most advanced states of the country.

Hyderabad is getting set to become ‘Telangana Drone City’ and become a facilitation centre for private and government organizations seeking to use drones. Once the Drone Policy is finalised, Telangana state will have

7

another feather in its cap – i.e. it becomes first state in the country to have its own Drone Policy. The potential areas for applications of Drones are agriculture, energy, municipal administration, mining, irrigation and public safety. To develop the drone industry in the State, the draft policy proposes to provide 100 per cent reimbursement of SGST for seven years, 25 per cent investment subsidy, and other incentives.

The Federation, apart from conducting seminars and conferences is also conducting research to provide inputs to the government on the status of MSME sector. I am pleased to inform that FTCCI jointly with IMCI released a Report on “Current Practices and Challenges of MSMEs in pursuit of the Make in India Vision” and the report was received well by the department of industries and commerce, government of Telangana.

As a part of CSR activities, the members of Federation came forward and donated recyclable semi-cloth bags to Amrabad Tiger Reserve for collecting the garbage and protection of environment.

The Federation delegation called on the Hon’ble President of India Sri Ram Nath Kovind, at Rashtrapathi Nilayam, Bollaram, Secunderabad during Hon’ble President’s southern sojourn and discussed various issues relating to industrial development, more particularly on women empowerment. The Hon’ble President appreciated the work done by the Federation in safeguarding the interests of the industry and trade and advised to take up more activities towards empowerment of women and rural development.

FTCCI continued to have meaningful events, delegations and interactions on various issues. While I may not be able to cover all the happenings at the Federation in this short note, I would like to mention few activities that I believe would be of great interest to the members:

Representations to Government and other Authorities

Date of Representation/ SubjectAddressed to

11/10/2018

Shri Arun JaitleyHon’ble Finance Minister andChairman-GST Council and Dr. Hasmukh Adhia, IAS,Finance Secretary and RevenueSecretary, Government of India

Request for Extension of Due date for availing Input Tax Creditfor the period July 2017 to March 2018.

We would like to seek the extension for the due date availing of the InputTax Credit for the period July 2017 to March 2018 on the inward suppliesfor the taxpayers.

As per the provisions of the CGST Act Section 16, Sub-section 4., thebuyer of the goods or services or both can avail it “after the due date offurnishing of the return under section 39 for the month of Septemberfollowing the end of financial year to which such invoice or invoice relatingto such debit note pertains or furnishing of the relevant annual return,whichever is earlier.”

The input tax credit if not claimed before the due date for the filing of thereturns for the month of September 2018 which is 20th October 2018.

The same can be extended for the availing the credit for thefollowing reasons:

* This being the first year of the rollout of GST, many from the tradeand industry are not geared up for the same especially from theorganized sector and from Tier 2 & Tier 3 locations.

* For the taxpayers who have not filed the returns from July 2017 toMarch 2018, the due date for filing is 31st October 2018 for taxpayerhaving turnover less than Rs 150 Lacs and above Rs 150 Lacs notifiedwide notification numbers Notification No. 43/2018 – Central Taxdated 10th September 2018 and Notification No. 44/2018 – CentralTax dated 10th September 2018.

* As per provisions of Section 41 (1), the input tax credit is to be treatedon provisional basis till the supplier has made payment of the outputtax liability and in the Form GSTR – 2A it is not clear if the taxpayment is done by the supplier or not. This is creating challenges toavail the credit correctly.

* Taxpayers who are registered as input service distributor are not ableto file their returns Form GSTR – 6 the offline utility is having technicalglitches and online the system is not accepting as the volume of recordsis very high. As a result of it, they are not able to distribute the ITC toother divisions resulting then server cash loss and financial loss.

* The due date for the return filing of GST Returns for the taxpayerswho are notified No. 31/2018 – Central Tax dated the 06th August,2018 is 31st December 2018 and this will create challenges in availingITC as they cannot do reconciliation and as result if any debit orcredit notes are to be issued by the supplier cannot be accounted.

66

Till all the above challenges are addressed, the taxpayers cannot availthe complete input tax credit on their inward supplies of goods or servicesor both as result cannot claim the input tax credit.

We therefore request the Finance Minister to kindly issue a notificationunder relevant provisions of the Act to avail input tax credit after the duedate of filing of the returns for the month of September 2018.

Prior to the amendment, companies could set off IGST credit againstboth CGST and SGST. However, as per the new amendment this cannotbe done as IGST credit has to be first completely utilized before utilizingCGST or SGST credit. This has started to result in situations where on

Opinion

We have audited the standalone financial statements of the Federation of Telangana Chambers of Commerce andIndustry (Formerly the Federation of Telangana & AP Chambers of Commerce and Industry) (“the Federation”),which comprise the Balance Sheet as at 31st March 2019, and the statement of Income and Expenditure and statementof cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significantaccounting policies and other explanatory information.

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid standalonefinancial statements give the information required by the Companies Act, 2013 in the manner so required and give atrue and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of theFederation as at March 31, 2019, and its excess of Income over Expenditure, and its cash flows for the year ended onthat date.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under section 143(10) of theCompanies Act, 2013. Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilitiesfor the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Federation in accordancewith the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India together with the ethical requirementsthat are relevant to our audit of the financial statements under the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 and theRules thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements andthe Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide abasis for our opinion.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Standalone FinancialStatements

The Federation’s Managing Committee is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Companies Act,2013 (“the Act”) with respect to the preparation of these standalone financial statements that give a true and fair viewof the financial position, financial performance, and cash flows of the Federation in accordance with the accountingprinciples generally accepted in India, including the accounting Standards specified under section 133 of the Act. Thisresponsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Actfor safeguarding of the asscts of the Federation and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities;selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable andprudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that were operatingeffectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation andpresentation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement,whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the Managing Committee is responsible for assessing the Federation’s ability tocontinue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concernbasis of accounting unless the Managing Committee either intends to liquidate the Federation or to cease operations,or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those Managing Committee Members are also responsible for overseeing the Federation’s financial reporting process.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free frommaterial misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion.Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance withSAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and areconsidered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economicdecisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticismthroughout the audit. We also:

� Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error,design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient andappropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting fromfraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions,misrepresentations, or the overide of internal control.

� Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that areappropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Companies Act, 2013, we are also responsiblefor expressing our opinion on whether the company has adequate internal financial controls system in place andthe operating effectiveness of such controls.

� Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates andrelated disclosures made by management.

� Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based onthe audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may castsignificant doubt on the Federation’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material

70

uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in thefinancial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based onthe audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions maycause the Federation to cease to continue as a going concern.

� Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures,and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achievesfair presentation.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timingof the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identifyduring our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethicalrequirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that mayreasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
