Segment-wise Performance
Parle Industries operates in two main segments:
- Infrastructure & Real Estate
- Paper waste recycling
The Infrastructure & Real Estate segment contributed Rs 20.00 lakhs to the revenue, while the Paper waste recycling segment did not report any revenue for the quarter.
Key Management Changes
The company announced two significant changes in its management and audit structure:
Resignation of Company Secretary: Ms. Deepika Tater has resigned from her position as Company Secretary and Compliance Officer.
Resignation of Statutory Auditor: M/s. Ajmera & Ajmera, Chartered Accountants, have resigned as the Statutory Auditor of the company after completing the limited review for Q1. The auditors cited other occupancy and commitments as the reason for their resignation.
Ongoing Legal Dispute
Parle Industries is currently involved in a legal dispute with Weldone Integrated Services Private Ltd (WISPL) and Marvelous Vickyfoods Private Limited (MVPL) regarding share purchase agreements. The matter is sub-judice with the Bombay High Court under a Commercial Arbitration Petition.
Due to non-payment of consideration payable on the share swap mechanism, Parle Industries terminated the Share Purchase Agreements with WISPL and MVPL. Consequently, these entities could not become wholly-owned subsidiaries of Parle Industries. The company has also forfeited the equity shares issued to the shareholders of WISPL and MVPL.
Auditor's Review
The limited review report by M/s. Ajmera & Ajmera highlighted certain qualifications regarding the ongoing legal dispute and its potential impact on the financial statements. The auditors were unable to determine the potential impact of non-inclusion of WISPL and MVPL in the consolidated financial results due to the legal dispute.
Parle Industries' management and board will need to address these challenges and changes in the coming months to ensure stability and growth for the company.
