Content platform Dailyhunt and short-video app Josh's parent company VerSe Innovation has received a clean chit on the company's financial year 2024 (FY24) financials from audit firm Deloitte.
In an MCA filing, Deloitte said, "“We have considered the material weaknesses identified and reported above in determining the nature, timing, and extent of audit tests applied in our audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company for the year ended March 31, 2024, and these material weaknesses do not affect our opinion on the said Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company (our report on the Consolidated Financial Statements includes Emphasis of Matter paragraph in respect of retrospective adjustments made in the corresponding figures for the year ended March 31, 2023)."
The recent exit of Sandip Basu, VerSe's chief financial officer (CFO), coincides with the clear audit conclusion.
What was the matter?
Deloitte identified problems with the company's payment workflows, purchase order and invoice approval procedures, and supplier selection. The research claims that these flaws raise the possibility of "material misstatements" in trade payables and expenditure entries, and they may even lead to unauthorised payments or financial mismanagement.
The auditor also showed concerns over company's virtual assets. It brought to light laspses in pricing controls, client acceptance procedures, responsibility segregation, and user access management concerning the transfer of digital assets.
