The Secretarial Audit Report for the Financial year ending March 31, 2026 is attached as Annexure-ll to this report. The observations given by the Auditor in their Report along with explanation to the same is as below:
1. There was a delay of two days in submission of the Shareholding Pattern for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 to NSE due to a technical/system-related issue. A fine of ^4,000/- (excluding GST) was levied and subsequently paid by the Company.

Upon waiver application filed by the Company, the fine was waived by NSE vide its email dated August 1, 2025
2. There was delay of one day in submission of Standalone Integrated Financial Results for Quarter Ended March 31, 2025 as required under SEBI Circular No. SEBI/HO/CFD/CFD-PoD- 2/ClR/P/2024/185 dated December 31, 2024 read with Regulation 23(9) of SEBI LODR Regulations.
The response of your directors on the observation made by the Secretarial Auditor is as follows:
1. The delay was entirely due to a technical/system-related issue and the fine was waived by the NSE upon filing of Waiver application.
2. The delay of one day in submission of Standalone Integrated Financial Results for Quarter Ended March 31, 2025 was inadvertent and occurred due to an internal coordination and compilation delay in finalising the Standalone Integrated Financial Results.

The effectiveness of these measures is demonstrated by the fact that no similar instance of delay has occurred thereafter.
