The Board meeting commenced at 5:00 p.m. and concluded at 8:50 p.m. on February 10, 2026.
The company's financial results are accompanied by a limited review report from its statutory auditors, which includes several qualifications. These qualifications pertain to non-compliance with certain sections of the Companies Act, 2013 regarding public deposits, non-maintenance of prescribed liquid assets, and non-compliance with Company Law Board orders. Additionally, the auditors were unable to verify the accuracy, completeness, and recoverability/payability of various balances due to pending reconciliations and lack of direct confirmations. The auditors also highlighted that the company's net worth has been fully eroded, raising doubts about its ability to continue as a going concern, although the management believes it can operate on a going concern basis. Inventory valuation also lacked adequate supporting documentation. The auditors' report also draws attention to a Memorandum of Understanding with Tribus Real Estate Pvt. Ltd. for taking over secured bank loans, a pending SEBI appeal before the Supreme Court, ongoing proceedings with the Debt Recovery Tribunal, a significant provision written back, and an ongoing investigation into a fraud involving an ex-accountant.
