SRU Steels has appointed M/s. Bhari Shah & Co., Chartered Accountants, as its statutory auditor to fill a casual vacancy in the office.

The Board of Directors approved the resolution during its meeting held on August 31, 2026. The firm, holding registration number 119020W, will serve until the conclusion of the upcoming Annual General Meeting (AGM), subject to shareholder approval.

Appointment Details

The appointment addresses a temporary gap in the company’s audit function. M/s. Bhari Shah & Co. provides services including income tax, GST, project finance, and bank audits.

The disclosure was made under Regulation 30 of the SEBI Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements Regulations, 2015.

SRU Steels has accepted the resignation of BMGS & Associates as its statutory auditor, effective August 26, 2026. The audit firm cited recent changes in the composition of the board of directors and management as the primary reason for stepping down.

The resignation was communicated to the Bombay Stock Exchange on August 27, 2026, pursuant to Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. Akhil Arora, Managing Director and CFO of SRU Steels, confirmed the disclosure, stating there are no material reasons for the resignation other than those detailed in the firm's letter.

Audit Status and Pending Reviews

BMGS & Associates highlighted that critical audit processes remain incomplete at the time of their exit. Specifically, the audit for the financial year ended March 31, 2026, and the limited review for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, are pending. The firm requested SRU Steels to appoint new auditors or agencies to complete these outstanding reviews.

BMGS & Associates was originally appointed on February 19, 2026. Their term was scheduled to continue until the conclusion of the upcoming Annual General Meeting for FY25-26. The last report submitted by the firm was a limited review for the quarter ended December 31, 2025, dated February 27, 2026.

What the Numbers Show

The timing of the resignation reveals a significant gap in oversight. With the full-year audit for FY26 and the subsequent quarterly review for Q1FY27 both pending, the company faces an immediate need to onboard a replacement auditor to ensure timely compliance with statutory reporting deadlines. The firm noted that while alternative procedures were performed, the lack of certain information could have a significant impact on the financial statements, though they did not specify the nature of this information in the public filing.
