PART I
Item 1. Business.
Overview
Goa Sweet Tours Ltd. was incorporated in the State of Delaware on September 2, 2008. We were formed to provide personalized concierge tour packages to tourists who visit the State of Goa, India. We plan to market our tour packages to tourists already in the State of Goa through the relationships with travel agents and small resort operators that our President, Mr. Chuntan Vernekar, has developed through his years of experience in the tour business. We also plan to develop a website for advertising our services which will be the virtual business card and portfolio for the Company.
There have been no material reclassifications, mergers, consolidations or purchases or sales of any significant amount of assets not in the ordinary course of business since the date of incorporation. The Company has never been party to any bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceeding, nor has it undergone any material reclassification, merger, consolidation, purchase or sale of a significant amount of assets not in the ordinary course of business.
We are a development stage company and since inception, we have not generated consistent revenues and have incurred a cumulative net loss as reflected in the financial statements. We have minimal assets and have incurred losses since inception. Our limited start-up operations have consisted of the formation of our business plan and identification of our target market.
Our administrative offices are currently located at the premises of our President, Chuntan Vernekar, who provides such space to us on a rent-free basis at H. no. 889, Ascona, Patem, Benaulim, Goa, India. We plan to use these offices until we require larger space.
Plan of Operation
About Our Company
We intend to develop all-inclusive travel packages that will provide concierge-style personalized service for the visitor who travels to Goa. Many large hotels and resorts have their own tour services and websites and we will be competing with the foregoing. We intend to differentiate ourselves by offering a much more personalized service. We intend to act as a personal concierge or executive assistant throughout the duration of the trip.
We also hope to create strategic partnerships with smaller hotels and resorts that do not have their own tour services and that will recommend our services to the visitors to Goa. The partnerships that we plan to develop will enable us to grow our customer base and expand our business by increasing exposure to our website to the consumers that view our sponsors’ websites. We have not yet attempted to create any strategic partnerships or develop our website.
We expect that our customers will be able to choose from tour packages that involve travel in and throughout the State of Goa. The tours may include nature adventures, shopping sprees and relaxation-oriented getaways. We plan to offer tours to families and groups of friends or individuals up to a maximum of eight people. The tours within the State of Goa will be one-day tours. Tours outside of Goa will last up to one week. Tour clients will be responsible for their own food and lodging, although we will provide recommendations. We plan to use trilingual guides (in English, Konkani (the native language of Goans) and Hindi) for each package. Our tours will also include car, chauffeur, and dinner reservations to places of our guests’ choosing. Initially all of our cars will be leased, although we, may, in the future, purchase a vehicle with a capacity for four passengers.
We have no plans to change our planned business activities or to combine with another business, and we are not aware of any events or circumstances that might cause these plans to change.
We have not conducted any market research into the likelihood of success of our operations or the acceptance of our products or services by the public. We are relying on the experience of our President, Mr. Chuntan Vernekar, who will be devoting approximately 15 hours a week of his time to our operations. Once we begin operations, and are able to attract clients to use our services, Mr. Vernekar has agreed to commit more time as required.
We have been issued a "substantial doubt" going concern opinion from our auditors and our only asset is our cash balance of $1,418.
The next stage of our business plan is to develop our website, and begin marketing and promotion of our services which includes producing print media and developing relationships with Goan hotels and travel agencies.
2
To develop our website, we will begin to design an information page which will utilize artwork and a logo and include our mission statement, a brief biography of our President, pictures of locations, our services, fee structure, contact information and ordering instructions. This information page will serve as an “e-brochure.” We plan to distribute the e-brochure electronically via the internet in accordance with all laws governing online solicitation known as spam mail. We plan to obtain the email addresses from various alliances such as hotel operators and travel agents. We will contract web space from a local Internet service provider. We intend to establish an office in our President’s premises to maintain the website and database. This will include physical office space, computer equipment, telephones and other assets as required to maintain the operations.
We expect the development of our website to take approximately 2 to 4 months. The initial cost will be $4,000. We intend to register and list our web address with widely used search engines and directories.
We also plan to develop a colorful print brochure which will mirror our website’s e-brochure. These print brochures will be given to travel agents and hotels. We anticipate the cost for the development and printing of brochures will be approximately $2,000.
To date, we have not secured relationships with any hotels or service providers, although our president has begun meeting with the managers/operators of various small and midsize resorts, restaurants, spice farms, and jewelry and carpet shops to discuss the tour packages and services which we plan to provide. The initial budget for our marketing and promotions, including travel costs, is $3,000.
Our complete budget for the next stage of our business plan is as follows:
| Brochures, Marketing and Promotion | $ | 3,000 | ||
| License application | 2,000 | |||
| Website Development | 4,000 | |||
| Miscellaneous Administrative Expenses | 2,000 | |||
| Total | $ | 11,000 |
Since we became a reporting company it is responsible for filing various forms with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) such as Form 10K and Form 10Qs.
The shareholders may read and copy any material filed by us with the SEC at the SEC’s Public Reference Room at 100 F Street N.W., Washington, DC, 20549. The shareholders may obtain information on the operations of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. The SEC maintains an Internet site that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information which we have filed electronically with the SEC by assessing the website using the following address: http://www.sec.gov.
We are in dire need for injection of funds totaling $34,000 to execute our business and repay advance received. To survive as a reporting entity for the next 12 months, we require $14,000. We are in contact with various persons but there is no assurance we will succeed in securing additional funding.

Market Information
Since June 28, 2010 our shares have been listed for trading on the OTC Electronic Bulletin Board (OTCBB). The symbol is GOAS.
The OTCBB is a regulated quotation service that displays real-time quotes, last sale prices and volume information in over-the-counter (OTC) securities. The OTCBB is not an issuer listing service, market or exchange. Although the OTCBB does not have any listing requirements per se, to be eligible for quotation on the OTCBB, issuers must remain current in their filings with the SEC or applicable regulatory authority. Market Makers are not permitted to begin quotation of a security whose issuer does not meet this filing requirement. Securities already quoted on the OTCBB that become delinquent in their required filings will be removed following a 30 or 60 day grace period if they do not make their required filing during that time.
As of July 31, 2011, the shareholders' list of our common shares showed 357 registered shareholders holding 8,000,000 shares; there are no shares held by broker-dealers. 5,000,000 shares are owned by our officer and director, and may only be resold in compliance with Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933.
Only a limited market exists for our securities. There is no assurance that a regular trading market will develop, or if developed, that it will be sustained. Therefore, a shareholder in all likelihood will be unable to resell his securities in our Company. Furthermore, it is unlikely that a lending institution will accept our securities as pledged collateral for loans unless a regular trading market develops.
The following chart is indicative of the fluctuations in the stock prices:

Our common stock is considered to be a “penny stock” under the rules the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ Stock Market System, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or quotation system. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the Commission, that:
| – | contains a description of the nature and level of risks in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; |
| – | contains a description of the broker’s or dealer’s duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation to such duties or other requirements of Securities’ laws; contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price; |
| – | contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; |
| – | defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and |
| – | contains such other information and is in such form, including language, type, size and format, as the Commission shall require by rule or regulation. |
The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer with:
| – | bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; |
| – | the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; |
| – | the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the marker for such stock; and |
| – | monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. |
In addition, the penny stock rules that require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules; the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written acknowledgement of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitably statement.
These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our stock.

We initially plan to market our packages to tourists already in the State of Goa through the relationships with travel agents and small resort operators that our President, Mr. Chuntan Vernekar, has developed through his years of experience in the tour business.

Expenses
Our operating expenses for the year ended July 31, 2011 and 2010 are outlined in the table below:
| | Year Ended July 31, 2011 | Year Ended July 31, 2010 | ||||||
| Professional fees | $ | 9,750 | $ | 16,571 | ||||
| General and Administration fees | 9,068 | 7,570 | ||||||
| Total | 18,818 | 24,141 | ||||||
Results of Operations
We did not earn any revenues for the year ended July 31, 2011 and from inception on September 2, 2008 to July 31, 2011. We do not expect to realize any revenues until we are able to secure additional funds and execute our business plan. Our revenue will be generated from fees paid by customers for transportation services and tour packages, as well as commissions from the operators of various tour destinations for introducing them to our customers. Since inception, we sold 8,000,000 shares of common stock for total proceeds of $55,000.
For the year ended July 31, 2011, we have incurred total operating expenses in the amount of $18,818 which mainly comprises of professional fees totaling $9,750 and general and administrative expenses totaling $9,068. For the year ended July 31, 2010 we incurred total operating expenses in the amount of $24,141 which mainly comprises of professional fees totaling $16,571 and general and administrative expenses totaling $7,570.
We incurred total operating expenses in the amount of $62,484 from inception on September 2, 1008 through July 31, 2011. These operating expenses comprised of professional fees totaling $42,588 and general administrative expenses totaling $19,896.
We have not incurred any expenses for research and development since inception. As a result of operating losses, there has been no provision for the payment of income taxes from the date of inception.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As at July 31, 2011, we had a cash balance of $1,418.
We do not anticipate generating any revenue for the foreseeable future. Other than the shares offered during the year ended July 31, 2011, no other source of capital has been has been identified or sought. If we experience a shortfall in operating capital, our director and his assoicate has verbally agreed to advance the Company to a maximum of $20,000.
When additional funds become required, the additional funding will come from equity financing from the sale of our common stock. If we are successful in completing an equity financing, existing shareholders will experience dilution of their interest in our company.
We do not have any financing arranged and we cannot provide investors with any assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient funding from the sale of our common stock to fund our exploration programs. In the absence of such financing, our business will fail.
Our future financial results are also uncertain due to a number of factors, some of which are outside our control. These risk factors are disclosed factors include, but are not limited to:
| | · | our ability to raise additional funding; |
| | · | the results of our proposed operations |
The detailed analysis of the risk factors is disclosed our Company’s registration statement Form S-1 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Future Financings
We will require additional financing in order to enable us to proceed with our plan of operations, as discussed above. Accordingly, we will require additional financing in order to continue operations. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available to us when needed or, if available, that it can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. If we are not able to obtain the additional financing on a timely basis, we will not be able to meet our other obligations as they become due. We are pursuing various alternatives to meet our immediate and long-term financial requirements.
We anticipate continuing to rely on equity sales of our common stock in order to fund our business operations. Issuances of additional shares will result in dilution to existing stockholders. There is no assurance that we will achieve any additional sales of equity securities or arrange for debt or other financing to fund our planned business activities.
We presently do not have any arrangements for additional financing and no potential lines of credit or sources of financing are currently available for the purpose of proceeding with our plan of operations.

Contractual Obligations
As a “smaller reporting company”, we are not required to provide tabular disclosure obligations.
Going Concern Consideration
The report of our independent registered public accounting firm raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern based on the absence of an established source of revenue, recurring losses from operations, and our need for additional financing in order to fund our operations in 2011.
Our operations and financial results are subject to various risks and uncertainties that could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. “Risk Factors” section of our July 31, 2010 Form S-1, includes a detailed discussion of these factors which have not changed materially from those included in this Form 10-Q.

Our audited financial statements are included following the signature page to this Form 10K.
Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
There were no disagreements related to accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, internal controls or auditing scope or procedure during the two fiscal years and interim periods, including the interim period up through the date the relationship ended.
Item 9A(T). Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and our management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
8
Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal controls over financial reporting will prevent all error and fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that the objectives of a control system are met. Further, any control system reflects limitations on resources and the benefits of a control system must be considered relative to its costs. These limitations also include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by management override of a control. A design of a control system is also based upon certain assumptions about potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and may not be detected.
As of July 31, 2011, the year end period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, we have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this annual report. There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal year ended July 31, 2011 that have materially or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Management has employed a framework consistent with Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(c), to evaluate internal control over financial reporting described below. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Management conducted an evaluation of the design and operation of our internal control over financial reporting as of July 31, 2011. As a result of this assessment, management concluded that, as of July 31, 2011, our internal control over financial reporting was effective in providing reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparations and presentations. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.
There were no changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the evaluation date.
Item 9B. Other Information
No items required to be reported on Form 8-K during the fourth quarter ended July 31, 2011 covered by this report were not previously reported on Form 8-K.
PART III
Item 10. Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance
The following individuals serve as the director and executive officer of our company as of the date of this annual report. All directors of our company hold office until the next annual meeting of our shareholders or until their successors have been elected and qualified. The executive officers of our company are appointed by our board of directors and hold office until their death, resignation or removal from office.
| Name | Age | Position |
| Chuntan Vernekar | 33 | President, Secretary/Treasurer, Chief Executive Officer and sole member of the Board of Directors. |
None of the directors or officers has professional or technical accreditation in the exploration, development or operations of mining or mining related projects.

For the coming year, it is anticipated that time commitment and requirement will remain approximately the same.

Business Experience
The following is a brief account of the education and business experience during at least the past five years of our director, executive officer and key employee of our company, indicating the his principal occupation during that period, and the name and principal business of the organization in which such occupation and employment were carried out.
Chuntan Vernekar has been our President, Secretary, Treasurer and a member of the Board of Directors since our inception on September 2, 2008. From 2002 to present, Mr. Vernekar has been owner and manager of a private chauffeur company, Goa Sweet Tours, which owns and operates three vehicles, one of which provides shuttle services to a five-star hotel in Goa, while the other two provide services to customers of various hotels and travel agencies. For the last three years, Mr. Vernekar, through his company, Goa Sweet Tours, has provided tours in the States of Goa and Karnataka to numerous tourists. From 1998 to 2002, Mr. Vernekar was employed by Taj Exotica Hotel in Goa as the general manager’s personal chauffeur. During this time, he was required to take guests of the hotel’s general manager on certain tours, as dictated by the general manager. From 1996 to 1998, Mr. Vernekar was a chauffeur for the staff of the Leela Kempinski Goa Hotel. Both hotels are designated as 5 star hotels.
Mr. Vernekar reads and speaks English, Hindi and Konkani fluently. Management believes that Mr. Vernekar ‘s understanding of the English language, and his familiarity with British, American and Indian culture, will enable him to deal with a myriad of issues involving customer service.
Mr. Vernekar ‘s schedule allows him to spend up to 15 hours a week on the operations of our company. He has indicated to us that he will be willing to spend more time with the business as it grows.
Mr. Vernekar is not an officer or director of any other reporting company that files annual, quarterly, or periodic reports with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.
Board Composition
Our Bylaws provide that the Board of Directors shall consist of at least one member, and that our shareholders shall determine the number of directors from time to time. Each director serves for a term that expires until the next annual meeting of shareholders and until his successor shall have been elected and qualified, or until his earlier resignation, removal from office, or death.
Committees of the Board of Directors
We do not presently have a separately constituted audit committee, compensation committee, nominating committee, executive committee or any other committees of our Board of Directors. Nor do we have an audit committee “financial expert.” As such, our entire Board of Directors acts as our audit committee and handles matters related to compensation and nominations of directors.
Potential Conflicts of Interest
Since we do not have an audit or compensation committee comprised of independent directors, the functions that would have been performed by such committees are performed by our sole director, who is also our sole executive officer. Thus, there is an inherent conflict of interest.
Director Independence
We are not subject to listing requirements of any national securities exchange or national securities association and, as a result, we are not at this time required to have our board comprised of a majority of “independent directors.” Our determination of independence of directors is made using the definition of “independent director” contained in Rule 4200(a)(15) of the Marketplace Rules of the NASDAQ Stock Market (“NASDAQ”), even though such definitions do not currently apply to us because we are not listed on NASDAQ. We have determined that our sole director does not currently meet the definition of “independent” as within the meaning of such rules as a result of his current position as our executive officer.
Significant Employees
We have no significant employees other than the sole executive officer described above.
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
No director, person nominated to become a director, executive officer, promoter or control person of our company has, during the last five years: (i) been convicted in or is currently subject to a pending a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses); (ii) been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to any federal or state securities or banking or commodities laws including, without limitation, in any way limiting involvement in any business activity, or finding any violation with respect to such law, nor (iii) any bankruptcy petition been filed by or against the business of which such person was an executive officer or a general partner, whether at the time of the bankruptcy or for the two years prior thereto.
10
Stockholder Communications with the Board
We have not implemented a formal policy or procedure by which our stockholders can communicate directly with our Board of Directors. Nevertheless, every effort will be made to ensure that the views of stockholders are heard by the Board of Directors, and that appropriate responses are provided to stockholders in a timely manner. During the upcoming year, our Board will continue to monitor whether it would be appropriate to adopt such a process.
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
During the past five years, none of our officers, directors, promoters or control persons have had any of the following events occur:
| | · | a bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time; |
| | · | conviction in a criminal proceeding or being subject to a pending criminal proceeding, excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses; |
| | · | being subject to any order, judgment or decree, not substantially reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking business; and/or |
| | · | being found by a court of competent jurisdiction, in a civil action, the SEC or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended or vacated. |
Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our executive officers and directors and persons who own more than 10% of our common stock to file with the SEC initial statements of beneficial ownership, reports of changes in ownership and annual reports concerning their ownership of our common stock and other equity securities, on Forms 3, 4 and 5 respectively. Executive officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders are required by the SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports that they file.
Code of Ethics
We have adopted a formal written Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and Compliance Program for all officers, directors and senior employees.
Audit Committee and Audit Committee Financial Expert Disclosure
The Company’s Board of Directors does not have a separately designated audit committee or an “audit committee financial expert.” Audit committee functions are performed by our Board of Directors. None of our directors is deemed independent. All directors also hold positions as our officers. Our audit committee is responsible for: (1) selection and oversight of our independent accountant; (2) establishing procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints regarding accounting, internal controls, and auditing matters; (3) establishing procedures for the confidential, anonymous submission by our employees of concerns regarding accounting and auditing matters; (4) engaging outside advisors; and, (5) funding for the outside auditory and any outside advisors engagement by the audit committee.
The Board of Directors does not have an audit committee financial expert at this time due to the fact that the Company has only limited operations and no revenues. We believe the cost related to retaining a financial expert at this time is prohibitive. Further, because of our limited operations, we believe the services of a financial expert are not warranted.
Item 11. Executive Compensation
General
Since our incorporation on September 2, 2008, we have not compensated and have no arrangements to compensate our sole officer and director Mr. Vernekar for his services to us as an officer.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Goa Sweet Tours Ltd.
(A Development Stage Company)
Benaulim, Goa, India
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Goa Sweet Tours Ltd. (the “Company”) as of July 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years ended July 31, 2011 and 2010 and for the period from September 2, 2008 (Inception) through July 31, 2011. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Goa Sweet Tours Ltd. as of July 31, 2011 and 2010, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended July 31, 2011 and 2010 and for the period from September 2, 2008 (Inception) through July 31, 2011, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered losses from operations which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding this matter also are described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

In accordance with ASC 915 Development Stage Entities, the Company is considered to be in the development stage. Its activities to date have been limited to capital formation, organization and development of its business plan. The Company has not commenced operations.
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company has incurred a loss since inception resulting in an accumulated deficit of $62,484 as at July 31, 2011 and further losses are anticipated in the development of its business raising substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months with existing cash on hand and loans from directors and/or the private placement of common stock.

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Revenue
The Company’s revenues will be derived principally by providing tour packages to tourists in Goa, India. The Company has generated no revenues to date. The Company plans to recognize revenue on arrangements in accordance with ASC 605, Revenue Recognition. The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned less estimated future doubtful accounts. The Company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned when it has persuasive evidence of an arrangement that the services have been rendered to the customer, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.
Intellectual Properties
The Company has adopted the provisions of ASC 350-50, Website Development Costs. Costs incurred in the planning stage of a website are expensed as research and development while costs incurred in the development stage are capitalized and amortized over the life of the asset, estimated to be five years. Expenses subsequent to the launch will be expensed as research and development expenses. The Company will expense upgrades and revisions to its website as incurred. The Company incurred no costs for research and development during fiscal 2011. Once the Company’s website is fully operational, this asset will be amortized over a sixty month period.
Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share
The Company computes loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the statement of operations. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period. Diluted loss per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including stock options and warrants using the treasury method. Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are provided in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for all temporary differences between financial and tax reporting and net operating loss carry forwards. Deferred tax expense (benefit) results from the net change during the year of deferred tax assets and liabilities.
Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
At July 31, 2011 and 2010, a full deferred tax asset valuation allowance has been provided and no deferred tax asset benefit has been recorded.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flow.
