The company communicated this exemption to the National Stock Exchange of India Limited on May 30, 2026, citing Regulation 23(9) of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. This regulatory relief impacts the company's compliance obligations regarding corporate governance disclosures for the financial year.
The exemption stems from Regulation 15(2) of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. This provision specifies that compliance with certain corporate governance norms does not apply to listed entities with paid-up equity share capital not exceeding ₹10 crore and net worth not exceeding ₹25 crore, or to entities listed on the SME Exchange.

The disclosure was signed by Bhavin Kantilal Jethwa, Managing Director of the company. The filing confirms that the company will not be subject to these specific governance provisions for the stated financial year.
