Vardhman Special Steels Limited (VSSL) responded to an email from the National Stock Exchange of India Limited dated 3 June, 2025, regarding the financial results for the quarter/year ended 31 March, 2025, where standalone and consolidated figures were reported as the same. * The company clarified that it acquired a 26% share in Sone Solar Private Limited during the quarter ended 30 June, 2024. * According to Ind AS 109, this investment is classified as an investment in an Associate using the equity method. * VSSL stated that it is not entitled to any dividend or profit distribution from Sone Solar Private Limited. * The company holds a put option exercisable at the end of the 18th year from the investment date, with an Option Price at Fair Market Value at least equal to the original investment amount. * Due to this arrangement, VSSL will not record any downside from the SPV's losses, nor will it recognize any upside until the option is exercised, as the return on this investment is uncertain until then. * Consequently, there is no difference between the consolidated and standalone figures, which clarifies the matter raised by the Exchange.
