Sumeet Industries has clarified that the audit qualification in its financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2026, did not necessitate any adjustments to its reported financial results. The company submitted a statement to the National Stock Exchange of India Limited (NSE) on June 30, 2026, addressing a query regarding the format of its disclosure on the impact of audit qualifications. The clarification follows a qualified opinion issued by the statutory auditor, H T K S & Co. Chartered Accountants, for the second consecutive year.
The qualification relates to the non-provision of interest payable under Section 16 of the MSMED Act, 2006. The auditor noted that the interest amount had not been ascertained or provided for in the accounts. In its response, the management stated that based on consistent business practices and mutual understanding with MSME vendors, no interest has been demanded or charged by the suppliers. Consequently, the company determined that no provision for interest was necessary in the financial statements.
The company’s Audit Committee had recommended the audited financial statements in a meeting held on May 29, 2026. The submission to the exchange was signed by Managing Director Pratik R Jaju, CFO Abhishek Prasad, and Executive Director Radheshyam B Jaju. The statement confirmed that the audited figures remained unchanged after considering the qualification.
The table below details the financial figures for the standalone financial statements, which remain identical before and after adjusting for the qualification:
| SL No. | Particulars | Audited Figures (Rs. In Lakhs) | Adjusted Figures (Rs. In Lakhs) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Turnover / Total income | 105753.17 | 105753.17 |
| 2 | Total Expenditure | 102221.62 | 102221.62 |
| 3 | Total Comprehensive Net Profit/(Loss) | 2582.39 | 2582.39 |
| 4 | Earnings Per Share | 0.48 | 0.48 |
| 5 | Total Assets | 55081.27 | 55081.27 |
| 6 | Total Liabilities | 55081.27 | 55081.27 |
| 7 | Net Worth | 21188.79 | 21188.79 |
The same financial metrics and audit qualification details were reported in the consolidated financial statements. The auditor, CA. Richa Tosniwal, signed the Independent Auditor's Report on May 29, 2026, confirming the qualified opinion based on the aforementioned observation regarding the MSMED Act interest.
