Item 4.01 Changes in Registrants Certifying Accountant


On November 1, 2013, the Company notified ZBS Group LLP, formerly ZS Consulting Group LLP, (“ZBS”), the independent registered public accounting firm to the Company, that the Company had dismissed the firm because the Company desired to continue to use the services of the accounting firm that had worked previously with Hydro Phi Technologies, Inc., the wholly owned subsidiary of the Company as a result of the reverse merger then completed.  The decision to dismiss ZBS was approved by the Company’s board of directors.


During the Company’s period of engagement of ZBS from February 5, 2011, through November 1, 2013, there were no disagreements between the Company and ZBS on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of ZBS would have caused it to make a reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with their review on the Company’s financial statements for such periods.  There were no reportable events (as described under Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K) during the Company’s engagement of ZBS from February 5, 2011 through November 1, 2013.


The Company has provided ZBS with a copy of this disclosure and requested that ZBS furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees or disagrees with the statements by the Company in this Current Report on Form 8-K.


On November 1, 2013, the Company engaged GBH CPAs, PC (“GBH”), 6002 Rogerdale Road, Houston, TX 77072, as its new independent registered public accounting firm. The engagement of GBH was approved by the Company’s board of directors on November 1, 2013.  GBH was engaged as the independent registered public accounting firm of Hydro Phi Technologies, Inc. before the merger, while Hydro Phi Technologies, Inc. was a private company.


During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years ended June, 30, 2011 and 2012 and through November 1, 2013, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf consulted with GHB regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific transaction, either completed or proposed; or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, and no written report was provided to the Company or oral advice was provided that GBH concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was the subject of either a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K) or a reportable event (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.


A copy of the letter from ZBS is attached hereto as Exhibit 16.1
