Statutory Auditor
- M/s. A Y & Company, Chartered Accountants, Jaipur, has been appointed as Statutory Auditor to fill a casual vacancy. The vacancy arose from the resignation of M/s. R H Panwar & Associates, Chartered Accountants, Ahmedabad, dated October 01, 2026.
- The term of the newly appointed firm runs up to the date of the ensuing General Meeting, and it will act as Statutory Auditor for issuing audit reports that fall due up to the conclusion of that meeting.
- The firm is a partnership of Chartered Accountants led by CA Arpit Gupta, registered with the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. It is based in Jaipur, Rajasthan, and provides audit and assurance, direct and indirect taxation, accounting and business advisory services.
Secretarial Auditor
- Ms. Divya Goswami, Company Secretary in whole-time practice and proprietor of M/s. Divya Goswami, has been appointed to conduct the Secretarial Audit for FY 2026-27. The date of appointment is October 14, 2026.
- She is an Associate Member of the Institute of Company Secretaries of India with experience in corporate laws, secretarial audits, and SEBI and stock exchange compliances. Her firm is peer reviewed and holds Peer Review Certificate No. 6490/2025.
Internal Auditor
- M/s. R H Panwar & Associates, Chartered Accountants, has been appointed as Internal Auditor for FY 2026-27. The date of appointment is October 14, 2026.
- This is the same firm whose resignation as Statutory Auditor, dated October 01, 2026, created the casual vacancy that the Board has now filled.
What stands out for an investor
- The disclosure is an outcome of a Board meeting and relates to auditor appointments for FY 2026-27 rather than to the company's business or financial performance.
- The statutory audit for the period up to the ensuing General Meeting will be handled by a firm that is new to that role for the company.
- As M/s. R H Panwar & Associates takes on the internal audit role, the statutory audit and the internal audit for FY 2026-27 are with two different firms.
- A change of statutory auditor is a governance matter investors generally watch, because the statutory auditor signs off on the company's financial statements. The update records both the resignation of the earlier firm and the appointment of the new one.
