Matters the auditor drew attention to
- A demand of Rs 1677.09 lakh raised by the District Collector, Balaghat on 30.01.2025 for violation of Environment Clearance limits is treated as a contingent liability. The auditor notes that no provision of Rs. 519.60 lakh (including Rs. 54.54 lakh towards economic benefits) has been made, and the entire demand of Rs. 1,731.63 lakh is treated as contingent.
- Opening stock of low-grade (LGHS) inventory to the tune of Rs 15814.11 lakh remained unsold during the quarter and half year.
- The Electrolytic Manganese Dioxide plant was under a temporary planned shutdown, and the Ferro Manganese plant was shut for a temporary period and has resumed operation. Customer commitments were met from finished goods inventory.
- The company has not carried out an assessment of the potential impact of the new Labour Codes effective 21 November 2025; management's view is that the impact will not be material.
- The Board and the Audit Committee do not have the requisite number of Independent Directors as required under the Listing Regulations and the Companies Act, 2013; the company has written letters requesting early appointment.
- The Comptroller and Auditor General of India pointed out grouping of inventories for FY 2025-26; the company says it is assessing this and will take corrective action in subsequent quarters.
Reading it together
- The dividend and the two dates (record date 06.11.2026, payment 30.11.2026) are the concrete, near-term items for shareholders.
- The quarterly and half-yearly numbers show the operating picture, while the auditor's emphasis points flag matters such as the contingent demand, unsold low-grade stock and the independent-director gap.
- The subsidiary approval is a first step and remains subject to government approvals.
