Audit Qualification and Regulatory Matters
Walker Chandiok & Co LLP issued a qualified opinion on both the standalone and consolidated financial results for the year ended 31 March 2026. The qualification relates to an ongoing Enforcement Directorate (ED) investigation into the company's Joint Managing Director under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act, 2002, in connection with the AgustaWestland case. The ED has filed a criminal complaint alleging that M/s Rawasi Al Khaleej General Trading LLC received proceeds of crime of USD 24.62 million during 2008-2010, which were allegedly transferred to KRBL through its subsidiary KRBL DMCC. An independent professional firm appointed by the board found no conclusive evidence to ascertain the impact on the financial statements. The audit qualification has been continuing since 31 March 2021, and the adjusted financial figures remain not ascertainable. The management, based on legal assessments and independent counsel, has stated that no adjustment is required in the accompanying statements. Separately, a land parcel at Dhuri, Punjab, attached by the ED to the extent of ₹1,532 lakh, remains under attachment pending final adjudication by the Appellate Tribunal under PMLA, with the next hearing scheduled for 8 July 2026. The deposit of ₹1,113 lakh previously made by the company was refunded on 6 March 2026 in accordance with the Appellate Tribunal's order dated 19 March 2025.
