Dear Sirs,
Sub: Disclosure under Regulation 30 of SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure
Requirements) Regulations, 2015.
Pursuant to Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 (“LODR Regulations”), we wish to inform you that, the Company has received an Order dated November 3, 2023, from Maharashtra GST authorities with a demand aggregating to Rs. 1,89,37,189/- (Rupees One Crore Eighty-Nine Lakhs Thirty Seven Thousand One Hundred Eighty Nine Only) including a penalty of Rs. 8,44,532/- (Rupees Eight Lakhs Forty Four Thousand Five Hundred Thirty Two Only). The said demand pertains to GST Audit conducted for Maharashtra state GST for the period July 2017 – March 2018.
Based on our assessment, we believe that the said demand is not maintainable, and the Company is in the process of preferring an appeal against the said Order. The Order has no material impact on the financials, operations or other activities of the Company.
Additional details required to be disclosed pursuant to the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations 2015 read with SEBI Circular No. SEBI/HO/CFD/CFD-PoD1/P/CIR/2023/123 dated July 13, 2023 are enclosed as Annexure A.
