This is a clarification on regulatory compliance for a preferential issue and does not introduce any new material financial information or significant change in business strategy.
The announcement is a clarification of regulatory applicability and does not present new financial performance or significant business developments, hence neutral.
Akme Fintrade (India) Limited (AFIL) has issued a clarification regarding its Extra-Ordinary General Meeting (EGM) held on 20th March 2026, specifically addressing queries about Regulation 166A of the SEBI (Issue of Capital and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2018. The company stated that Regulation 166A is not applicable to the proposed preferential issue because no allottee is expected to hold 5% or more of the post-issue fully diluted share capital.
Consequently, the requirement for a valuation report from an Independent Registered Valuer under Regulation 166A was not attracted. The issue price was determined in compliance with all applicable SEBI regulations and other laws. The company also noted that it had obtained a voluntary valuation report as per the Companies Act, 2013, and provided the name and address of the registered valuer, Mr. Shreyansh M Jain. Additionally, AFIL provided a direct link to the Practicing Company Secretary (PCS) Certificate.
The clarification was placed before the shareholders during the EGM.
