The company also noted its plan to enhance its mining capacity from 1 Mn MT per annum to 1.2 Mn MT per annum.The Board of Directors also approved the re-appointment of M/s Rakshit & Associates, Cost Accountants (FRN: 101951), as Cost Auditors of the Company for the Financial Year 2026-27, based on the recommendation of the Audit Committee.
The comprehensive audit report for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2026, issued a Qualified Opinion. The qualification arose because the Deferred Tax Liability of Rs 1,262 lakhs for the quarter and Rs 2,872 lakhs for the year ended March 31, 2026, was adjusted against the Securities Premium Account in terms of a court order. Had the deferred tax liability been accounted for under Ind AS-12 'Income Taxes', the net profit and total comprehensive income after tax for the quarter and year would have been lower by Rs 1,262 lakhs and Rs 2,872 lakhs, respectively.
