Narayana Hrudayalaya Limited reported that its Board of Directors reviewed a fine imposed by the National Stock Exchange of India (NSE) regarding a regulatory filing delay. The exchange levied a penalty of ₹4,000 on the company for failing to submit the Shareholding Pattern for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, within the stipulated timeline under Regulation 31 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015.

According to the company's communication to the exchange, the delay was caused by a technical or system-related issue. Although the filing status indicated a successful submission on April 20, 2026, no error message was displayed on the NSE portal. Consequently, the company re-submitted the Shareholding Pattern on April 23, 2026, immediately after receiving communication from the exchange regarding the non-submission.

Compliance Status and Waiver Request

The company clarified that it had filed the disclosure with BSE Limited on April 20, 2026, adhering to the prescribed timeline. Following the penalty notice, Narayana Hrudayalaya submitted a request letter to the NSE seeking a waiver of the fine. This request is currently under consideration by the exchange.

Board Observation and Future Direction

The Board of Directors noted that the delay was inadvertent and unintentional, emphasizing there was no mala fide intention or deliberate non-compliance. To prevent recurrence, the Board advised the management to ensure strict adherence to all applicable regulatory requirements within the designated timeframes moving forward.
