Independent Auditor's Report to the
Board Members of Private Power and
Infrastructure Board
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Private Power and Infrastructure Board (PPIB), which
comprise the statement of financial position as at 30 June 2020, and income and expenditure
statement, the statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in fund and reserve and
cash flow statement for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a
summary of significant accounting policies.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of the PPIB as at 30 June 2020, and its financial pefformance and its cash flows for the
year then ended in accordance with approved accounting standards as applicable in Pakistan.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs) as applicable in
Pakistan. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's
Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of
PPIB in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants' Code of Ethics for
Professional Accountants as adopted by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Pakistan (the Code)
and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. We believe that the
audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Information Other than the Financial Statements and Auditor's Report Thereon
Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the
information included in the director's repod, but does not include the financial statements of PPIB and
our auditor's report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express
any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other
information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the
financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially
misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement
of this other information, we are required to report that fact, We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the
Financial Statemeats
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in
accordance with the approved accounting standards as applicable in Pakistan, and for such internal
control as the Board determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are
free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the Board is responsible for assessing the PPIB's ability to
continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the
going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the PPIB or to cease
operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the PPIB'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 from material 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 with ISAs as applicable in Pakistan will always detect a material
misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material
if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic
decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
As part of an audit judgment professional in accordance with ISAs as applicable in Pakistan, we exercise
and maintain professional skepticism throughout 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 and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not
detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from
error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the
override of internal control. used and the reasonableness of
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the PPIB's internal control.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting
estimates and related disclosures made by management.
Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting
and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to
events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the PPIB's ability to continue as a going
concern. if we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our
auditor's report to the rotated disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are
inadequate, to modify our opinion' our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up
to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the PPIB 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 achieves fair presentation.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned
scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in
internal control that we identify during our audit.
The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditor's report is Raheel Arshad.
