Audit Qualifications and Going Concern

Amit Joshi & Associates, the Statutory Auditors, highlighted a material uncertainty relating to the company's ability to continue as a going concern. The auditors noted that the restructuring of the company's business is under consideration by lenders, and certain lenders have filed applications or issued notices before the NCLT, DRT, and SARFAESI. The current liabilities exceed current assets, and the net loss for the year would have increased had the company provided interest as per the auditor's qualification.

The basis for the qualified opinion includes unprovided interest amounting to ₹3,053.44 lakh (net of tax) for the current financial year, based on a techno-economic viability (TEV) study. The company has deposited ₹1,485.00 lakh with bankers and financial institutions towards settling dues, pending final approval from a lender. Additionally, the auditors noted arrears of undisputed statutory dues for income tax and other statutory dues amounting to ₹1,209.07 lakh and ₹80.75 lakh, respectively, which were outstanding for more than six months.

What is the expected timeline for lenders to finalize the restructuring plan currently under consideration?

How will the pending NCLT, DRT, and SARFAESI filings impact the company's ability to secure necessary funding or approvals?

What specific operational changes or new business lines does the company plan to implement to restore revenue generation?
