responses are as under:

1. Delay in disclosure of proceedings of the Annual General Meeting:

The delay of 9.30 hours in submitting the proceedings of the 54th Annual General Meeting to BSE

proceedings along with the requisite clarification to BSE on October 08, 2025. The Auditor
satisfied with the action taken by the Company.

The financial results were submitted to the newspaper publication agency on the date of the
Board Meeting itself. However, publication was delayed by 2 days due to reasons attributable to
the publisher/newspaper agency. The Auditor satisfied with the action taken by the Company.

3. Non-filing of Form MSME-1:

The filing of Form MSME-1 for the respective half-yearly periods could not be completed within
the prescribed timelines due to non-availability of the requisite information/data from the
concerned parties. The Company is in the process of collating and validating the requisite
information and shall complete the filing of the applicable Form MSME-1 upon receipt and
verification of the required data. The Company has also strengthened its internal compliance
