NOTE:

On 6[th] April, 2011 the land, namely 1, 60,000 Sq.m land at MIDC Industrial Estate, Dist. Indapur, Pune, Maharashtra was allotted to Subsidiary Company -Modulex Modular Buildings Private Limited.

As per the Lease Agreement dated 06[th] April, 2011, the Company had received approval to complete the Completion of the Factory work from MIDC within a period of 4 years (48 months) time period from the date of possession (i.e. 12[th] December, 2010). Due to delay in raising Project Loans / funds, the Company applied for further extension for completion of factory building.

As per letter dated 15[th] November, 2018, the MIDC raised demand for an additional premium of Rs. 4.11 Crore for the extension. Against this additional premium demand, the Company submitted an application for adjustment / set off of payment made by the Company at the time of initial allotment.

The lease agreement dated 06[th] April 2011 was cancelled from 04[th] September, 2020 as per letter dated 22[nd] January, 2021 during the Pandemic Covid 19 period (23[rd] March, 2020 ended on 27[th] November, 2021)

After this cancellation of the original allotment, the Company submitted an application on 24[th] September 2021 for a reallotment and in reply, the letter dated 17[th] March 2022 was issued by MIDC with a demand of Rs. 7.39 Crores for allotment of plot. Against this letter, the Company submitted a request to adjust the initial payment and time for balance payment. Meanwhile MIDC accepted the request for a meeting with the Company for discussion and finalisation, however before a meeting could happen, and before giving any opportunity to be heard, on 15[th] July 2022 MIDC issued the order for cancellation of the re-allotment order dated 17[th] March 2022.

Aggrieved with this, the Company filed a case in the Civil Court on 31[st] March, 2023 against the MIDC in the Civil Court at Baramati, District Pune.

Thereafter, on 1[st] February, 2024, in the meeting of the Land Allotment Committee of MIDC, the Committee re-allotted the land to the Company. Following this, the Company withdrew the lawsuit filed against MIDC on 21[st] February 2024. Subsequently, on 4[th] March 2024, MIDC issued the letter offering the land to the Company on payment of Rs 1.94 Crores as Earnest Money and the Company paid this amount on 7[th] June 2024, MIDC issued the order for the reallotment of the land. Following the order, the Company made the balance payment of Rs 5.81 Crores. After the payment, the registration of the lease agreement was done on 09[th] August 2024 and disclosure was made to the BSE on 09[th] August, 2024

In view of the above decision taken at the meeting of the Land Allotment Committee of MIDC on 01[st] February 2024, the case against the MIDC was withdrawn by the Company before any hearing took place on 21[st] February, 2024.

As the Company had filed the case and a verdict was not given and the matter being sub-judice, the Company’s position was that the land was still in the ownership and possession of the Company hence no disclosure was to be made. From the inception of the lease to cancellation and re-allotment, the

“5.3 In respect of Subsidiary (MMBPL), due to multiple factors including delays in raising the resources from the banks and other regulatory issues resulted in the temporary suspension of construction activity at the project site at Indapur, Pune which is taken on lease from MIDC (Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation).

Further, the Subsidiary (MMBPL) is in discussion with a consortium consisting of two member banks for funding the project to the extent of Rs. 8,500 lakhs. In December, 2022, the management received sanction letters from two member banks and is expecting the disbursement of the loan on the fulfillment of certain terms and conditions. Considering the continued delay in the construction of the project, the Subsidiary (MMBPL) has continued to incur losses in the current year and in the previous year. Further, current liabilities are greater than current assets. The management is committed to complete the construction of the factory complex and promoters / shareholders are committed to provide necessary funds to the Subsidiary (MMBPL) as and when required. The management is expecting trial production to commence and commercial production to be commenced in FY 24-25.

Further, the Subsidiary (MMBPL) had received a letter dated 12th August 2020 from MIDC asking the Subsidiary (MMBPL) to vacate the above project site due to a delay in construction work / delay in payment of premium charges. The Subsidiary (MMBPL) vide letter dated 13th August 2020 had replied to the said notice and requested for more time to make payment of outstanding premium charges. Further, the Subsidiary (MMBPL) vide letter dated 24th September 2021 has requested an extension of time for construction work for additional re-allotment fees of Rs. 810 lakhs. The Subsidiary (MMBPL) is confident of receipt of the extension letter from MIDC for the construction of work. The outcome of additional liability payable to MIDC (including interest for delay in payment of premium, if any) would be determined based on the decision of MIDC and pending this decision, additional liability proposed by the Subsidiary (MMBPL) has been disclosed under contingent liabilities (Refer Note 34.1).

Considering the commitment from the shareholders/promoters to continue to infuse funds for the execution of the project, the management’s expectation for receipt of an extension letter from MIDC for construction work as well as the future business prospects of the Subsidiary (MMBPL) and valuation report obtained from two valuers, in the opinion of the management there is no impairment of property, plant and equipment and capital work in progress as on date and further, the management has prepared the consolidated financial statements on going concern basis.”
