The disclosure, made on February 4, 2026, follows the company's previous communication dated December 22, 2025, under SEBI listing regulations.

NCLT Proceedings Update

The company petitions were originally scheduled for February 3, 2026, before the Hon'ble Special Bench of NCLT Allahabad. However, no arguments were advanced as the Special Bench was specifically constituted for hearing urgent matters under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016.

Both NCLT orders dated February 3, 2026, confirmed the rescheduling due to the Special Bench's focus on urgent IBC matters. The orders were issued under the authority of an NCLT New Delhi directive dated January 21, 2026, which established the Special Bench configuration.

The matters will not be listed on the previously notified dates of February 4, 2025, and February 9-11, 2025, as mentioned in the company's disclosure.

Regulatory Compliance

The disclosure was made under Regulation 30 of SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. Chief Financial Officer and Company Secretary Amit Jaiswal signed the communication, ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements.

The company has committed to providing further updates when material developments occur in the proceedings. The information has been uploaded on the company's website and will be available on NSE and BSE platforms as per standard disclosure practices.
