Aksh Optifibre Wins Arbitration Against BSNL, Awarded ₹9.21 Lakhs Plus Interest
Aksh Optifibre Limited won an arbitration against BSNL. The Arbitral Tribunal awarded ₹9.21 Lakhs plus interest at 10% p.a. on delayed payments for 2018-19 supplies. Post-award interest is at 11% p.a. Additionally, BSNL must pay ₹16.12 Lakhs in costs. This is expected to positively impact the company's financials.
While the award amount is positive, the principal amount of ₹9.21 Lakhs is relatively small for a listed entity. However, the addition of interest and costs, along with the positive implication for financial position, warrants a medium impact.
