1. a) Update on the events and circumstances relating to ongoing
differences with Dr. Jayaram Chigurupati, the erstwhile Promoter and
Managing Director of the Company.
Post acquisition of stake in the Company by Ranbaxy Laboratories
Limited (a division of Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Limited effective
from 24 March 2015 pursuant to a merger scheme) and Daiichi Sankyo
Company Limited (herein after referred to as the "current promoters")
there were disagreements on various accounts between the erstwhile
promoters and the current promoters resulting in various legal cases
being filed by both the parties before various forums. The current
Management was denied and, therefore, could not gain access to the
factory and other premises of the Company due to which a legal case was
filed before the Company Law Board (CLB), Chennai, for taking over the
physical possession of the factory premises from Dr. Jayaram
Chigurupati, the erstwhile Promoter and Managing Director of the
Company. Owing to the protracted legal case, the physical possession of
the factory premises could be taken over on November 13, 2011 in the
presence of CLB appointed Advocate Commissioner, in pursuance to an
Order passed by the CLB. Subsequent to the gaining of the possession of
the factory premises, further assessment by the current Management
revealed that, among others, certain books and records, supplementary
documents and statutory register till the period 12 November 2011 were
missing and which are still not in the possession of the current
Management. The Honorable Company Law Board vide order dated 8 October
2012 further directed Erstwhile Promoter and Managing Director of the
Company to return all the documents and provide written details of all
missing documents/assets/statutory records/equipment of the Company.
The Honorable High Court of Andhra Pradesh has also passed a similar
order. The Company has not yet been provided with these
documents/information.
The current Management, therefore, based on the available limited
records, statutory returns filed, supplementary documents, invoices,
external corroborative evidence and after considering the various non
compliances under the Companies Act, 1956, listing agreement and
Foreign Exchange Management Act, etc post 12 November 2011,
reconstructed financial statements for the years ended 31 March 2011
and 2012. Management is also in the process of regularizing and
compounding such non compliances with the various authorities
concerned.
Since matters relating to several financial and non financial
irregularities are sub-judice and various legal proceedings are
ongoing, any further adjustments/disclosures to the financial
statements, if required, would be made in the financial statements of
the Company as and when the outcome of the above uncertainties is known
and the consequential adjustments/disclosures are identifiable/
determinable.
b) Investment in subsidiaries:
Upon obtaining control of the Company, the current Management observed
that no books of account and records were available regarding its
overseas subsidiaries. The current management is yet to receive any
response from the erstwhile Managing Director on the queries raised
regarding details pertaining to these subsidiaries and seeking
documents/certificates related to forex transactions with these
subsidiaries including certain loans and investment made in the same.
Provision has not been made for potential financial consequences
arising out of such ongoing evaluations, the outcome of which will
depend on the nature and extent of non compliances which is currently
not determinable.
c) As of 31 March 2015, total net worth of the Company has been
completely eroded. The Board of Directors has formed an opinion that
the Company has become a Sick Industrial Company under the provisions
