Qualified Audit Opinion: Key Concerns
Statutory auditors S K Bhavsar & Co. issued a qualified opinion on the standalone financial results, citing two significant matters, both appearing for the second consecutive time:
- Loans and Advances of Rs. 256.27 lakhs: The company, being an NBFC, has outstanding loans and advances of Rs. 256.27 lakhs for which no balance confirmations were received from parties during the audit. The auditors noted that management recorded interest income on these loans, which is not in compliance with the Non-Performing Asset (NPA) norms issued by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). The company has also not been following NPA provisioning norms on these loans and advances. Management has stated that the company is in the process of recovering these past loans and advances.
- Income Tax Demand of Rs. 529.75 lakhs: An outstanding demand of Rs. 529.75 lakhs from the Income Tax Department was noted. The company did not provide documentary evidence of any appeal proceedings pending against the said order, leaving the auditors unable to determine the duration or quantum of the amount payable. Management has stated that an appeal has been filed before the Appellate Tribunal and the matter is under process.
The auditors also drew attention to the non-appointment of an Internal Auditor for the entire financial year 2025-26, constituting non-compliance with Section 138 of the Companies Act, 2013. Additional observations included the absence of MSME creditor bifurcation in trade payables, unconfirmed supplier advances, and the non-availability of balance confirmation letters and age-wise analysis for certain trade receivable and payable balances as at March 31, 2026. The auditors further noted the non-availability of satisfactory supporting documents for completeness of valuation of inventory as on March 31, 2026.
The Statement of Impact of Audit Qualifications confirmed that since the qualifications pertain to matters where the impact depends on uncertain future events, no adjustments have been made to the reported figures. The audited and adjusted figures for turnover, total expenditure, net profit, EPS, total assets, total liabilities, and net worth remain unchanged at Rs. 9.00 lakhs, Rs. 7.50 lakhs, Rs. 1.50 lakhs, Rs. 0.03, Rs. 337.10 lakhs, Rs. 26.40 lakhs, and Rs. 310.70 lakhs respectively.

Will Geetanjali Credit and Capital face regulatory action from the RBI for its continued non-compliance with NPA provisioning norms on the Rs. 256.27 lakhs in outstanding loans and advances?
How might the unresolved Rs. 529.75 lakhs income tax demand impact the company's financial stability and ability to sustain profitability if ruled against at the Appellate Tribunal?
Can the company's reported revenue growth be considered credible given that Rs. 10.62 lakhs in trade receivables drove most of the current asset increase, yet operating cash flows turned more negative — raising questions about actual cash realization?
