Risk Management is embedded in your Companyâs operating framework. Your Company believes that managing risks helps in maximizing returns for the stakeholders. The Companyâs approach in addressing business risks is comprehensive and includes periodic review of such risks and a framework for mitigating controls and reporting mechanism of such risks. The risk management framework is reviewed periodically by the Board and the Audit Committee of the Company. Some of the risks that the Company is exposed to and the steps taken to mitigate them are detailed in the Management Discussion and Analysis Report.
The Company believes in the conduct of the affairs of its constituents in a fair and transparent manner by adopting the highest standards of professionalism, honesty, integrity and ethical behaviour. Pursuant to Section 177(9) of the Act, a vigil mechanism is established for the Directors and for the employees of the Company to report to the management, any instances of unethical behaviour, actual or suspected, fraud or violation of the Companyâs code of conduct or ethics policy. The Vigil Mechanism provides a mechanism for employees of the Company to approach the Chairman of the Audit Committee of the Company.
With reference to the above, our Company has received a total three whistle-blower complaints during the year 2022-23. The Complaints were received from Mr. Sandeep Khurana, Ex- Independent Director and Ex-Chairman of the Audit Committee of the Company. The Complaint has been filed for conduct of the Board Meeting held for approval of Rights Issue of the Equity Shares and on relevant matters. Based on the complaint of the complainant, the said matter was raised by the Statutory Auditors to the Audit Committee and also submitted its report to the Central Government subsequent to year end in Form No. ADT 4 as per the requirement of the Companies (Audit and Auditor) Rules, 2014.
To ensure absolute fairness in the matter, the Company had appointed an Independent third party to investigate the said matter. Based on the investigation report submitted by the third party which was also adopted by the Audit Committee at its meeting held on 2nd September 2022, allegations in whistle-blower complaints were found to be baseless and as per the said investigation report the Company was recommended to take appropriate action.
For the other 2 complaints no actions was taken by the Board during the year under review, the Audit committee has decided to reprimand the complainant in no.2/2022 and take legal opinion on the Complaint No.3/2022 and the necessary reporting was made to the Board of Directors. The Whistle Blower complaints 02/2022 and 03/2022 were merely echoing the already closed complaint 01/2022 by the independent third party.
In spite of the same and by way of abundant caution the Board sought professional advice. The Whistle Blower Complaints were seen to be frivolous and baseless. Consequent thereto the Whistleblower complaints were closed in accordance with the law.
Mr. Sandeep Khurana has submitted the Complaint No.1/2022 to BSE on 01st September, 2022. BSE sought various clarifications from the Company and the management and the Company has satisfactorily submitted the detailed clarifications to BSE in the prescribed time limits.
It is also pertinent to note that certain complaints were also received from Employees of the Company against Mr. Sandeep Khurana, (then Independent Director of the Company). Pursuant to the said complaints, the Management was constrained to constitute a Disciplinary Committee (âDCâ) of External/Independent Professionals to ascertain the veracity of the complaints and to have a fair and proper hearing/redressal of the matter.
Thereafter, the said DC carried out a detailed investigation process. This included inter alia recording of the statements, calling for testimonies, collating of material evidence, calling for the records et al. After a lengthy process in which Mr. Khurana was also called, the DC after due application of mind, came to the conclusion that the behaviour of Mr. Khurana clearly constituted workplace misconduct. The said Committee had carried out its assigned task keeping in view not only the principles of fairness but also the principles of natural justice.
After a very detailed process, the DC found that the actions of the Mr. Sandeep Khurana had specifically violated the various codes/ regulations of the Code of Conduct for Directors and Senior Managerial Personnel (âCoCâ) of Modulex. Resultantly, the DC had made necessary recommendations to the Board of Directors of the Company to take action against Mr Khurana.
However, Board deliberated and decided not to take any disciplinary action against Mr Khurana. This was in view of the special circumstances and the fact that Mr. Khuranaâs term as Director was to end imminently. Therefore, the Board felt it imperative that Mr. Khurana should retire with dignity.
Unfortunately, in a series of vindictive actions Mr Khurana chose to weaponize his departure by resigning two days before the end of his term as a Director, and writing a resignation letter that was fraught with insinuations, false allegations and defamations. Yet again, the Company was compelled to respond to the resignation letter of Mr. Khurana (Regulation 30 read with Part A of Schedule III of the SEBI LODR, 2015) as directed by BSE.
The Whistle Blower Policy of the Company to this effect, is also uploaded on the website of the Company i.e. https://5458374.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hubfs/5458374/Whistle-Blowe.
