Audit Qualifications and Going Concern Risk

Statutory auditors Srivatsan & Associates (FRN: 014921S) issued a qualified opinion on the financial results, citing two key matters. First, the company has not received interest on an inter-corporate deposit (ICD) of ₹200 lakhs given to M/s. Aravay Exports Private Limited on July 4, 2017, and accordingly no interest has been accrued for the financial years 2024-25 and 2025-26. Second, the auditors noted that had a provision been made for the outstanding balance of ₹272 lakhs (comprising the ICD and accrued interest carried at outstanding values), the net owned funds of the company as at March 31, 2026 would fall below the minimum threshold prescribed under Section 45-IA of the Reserve Bank of India Act, 1934 for a Non-Banking Financial Company (NBFC). The auditors stated that this casts significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern, and that its continuation as an NBFC may depend on infusion of further capital and identification of alternative business plans. This qualification is repetitive in nature, having appeared in audit reports of earlier years as well. Management, however, has expressed the opinion that full repayment of the outstanding receivable is expected based on discussions with the customer, and the financial statements have accordingly been prepared on a going concern basis.

It is separately noted that an ICD amount of ₹305 lakhs from a major customer — against whom Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) proceedings had been initiated — was subsequently received by the company on June 13, 2025, along with applicable interest, following approval of the resolution plan by the Hon'ble NCLT on December 20, 2023. Accordingly, the auditors confirmed that no material uncertainty exists regarding recovery of that amount. The company also holds 100% bad debt insurance coverage. The company is headquartered at "PGP House", No. 59, Sterling Road, Nungambakkam, Chennai – 600 034.
