SIGNIFICANT AND MATERIAL ORDERS
PASSED BY THE REGULATORS OR COURTS

Statutory Auditors of the Company, for a term of five (5)
consecutive years, by the members of the Company
on September 25, 2023,
i.e., from the conclusion of the
6th Annual General Meeting until the conclusion of the
11th Annual General Meeting.

STATUTORY AUDITOR'S REPORT

The Notes on financial statements referred to in the
Statutory Auditor's Report are self-explanatory and
do not call for any further comments. The Statutory
Auditor's Report for the FY 2024-25 does not contain
any qualifications, reservations, adverse remarks, or
disclaimer, or frauds, except for an alleged misconduct
by a former employee against a customer as referred
to in clause (xi) (a) of Annexure A to the Statutory
Auditor's Report. Refer below for Board's response on
the matter. Except for the aforesaid alleged misconduct
by a former employee, there were no frauds reported
by the auditors, under sub-section (12) of Section 143 of
the Act.

Board's response

During the year, a customer of the Company has called
upon the Company to indemnify it against an alleged
misconduct by a former employee. The Company has
denied any obligation to indemnify the customer until
such allegations are legally established in a competent
court. This matter is currently sub judice. Based on our

assessment, it is unlikely to have a material impact on
the financial statements of the Company.
