its a cliche auditing question for exams.

You have to follow AS-5 on accounting for prior period items.

Just credit the P&L for the undervaluation of last year and debit the opening stock with the actual value.

This is a solved illustration in PCC accounts study material. Its simple. Disclose in the notes and no one will care. No need to qualify the report
