| Textual Information(1) | 1. We draw attention to Note 48 to the consolidated financial statements: a. As per clause (v) of Schedule 2 to the Framework Agreement, Saraf Group shall have the option to buy the Hyatt Regency, Mumbai (the principal asset of the Company) from the Holding Company any time after the successful withdrawal of CIRP and revocation of the Trading suspension. Moreover, in case of exercise of such option by Saraf Group, neither the Holding Company nor Saraf Group shall be liable to pay any other amount to each other. Though the Holding Company is not a party to the said Framework Agreement, the subsequent actions of the Board of Directors of the Holding Company, in seeking and obtaining the approval of the shareholders of the Holding Company to secure the amounts received from Saraf Group to create charge/lien over Hyatt Regency Mumbai indicates that the Board of Directors of the Holding Company have taken cognizance of the Framework Agreement. We also note that in the audited financial statements of Novak Hotels Private Limited, the party who has been identified by Saraf Group as the person who has funded the said amount of Rs. 39,000 lakhs has stated these amounts as advances for acquiring Hyatt Regency, Mumbai. In this regard, the following matters are noted and hereby reported: i. Considering the provisions of the Framework Agreement providing an option to Saraf Group to acquire Hyatt Regency, Mumbai and manner of presentation of such amounts by the Group Company of Saraf Group, we are unable to state if the classification of amounts received is in the nature of a borrowing or an advance for sale of assets and the presentation of such amounts as non-current. ii. Section 180(1)(a) of the Act restricts the power of the Board of Directors from sale, lease or otherwise dispose of the whole or substantially the whole of the undertaking of the Holding Company without the prior approval of the members of the Holding Company. In the instant case, the approval of the members of the 1.Holding Company was obtained only for creating security on the assets and the information regarding the exercise of option granted to Saraf Group was not informed to the members. iii. Though the members of the Holding Company approved creation of a charge / security on Hyatt Regency, Mumbai, the Holding Company is yet to file the necessary forms with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs and therefore is not in compliance with the requirements of the Act. iv. If the intention is to sell Hyatt Regency, Mumbai in return of the fund infusion by Saraf Group, these financial statements should have been prepared considering the requirement of Ind AS 105 Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations. Also refer our reporting on Going Concern assumption in paragraph 3 below. b. The Holding Company has not recognized interest expense of Rs. 7,845.07 lakhs and certain expenses of Rs. 1,598.39 lakhs towards reimbursement, as claimed by Saraf Group. In the absence of agreed terms and conditions in respect of the amounts received, we are unable to comment on the amount of interest that should have been accrued by the Holding Company in these Consolidated financial statements. Notwithstanding the above, if the amounts received are in the nature of borrowings as considered by the Holding Company, as per section 186(7) of the Companies Act, 2013, such borrowings shall have a minimum interest rate that is not lower than the prevailing yield of one year, three year, five year or ten year government security closest to the tenor of the loan. However, even considering the minimum rate of interest as stipulated in Section 186(7) of the Act, such interest amount that has not been recognised in these consolidated financial statements is expected to be material and will represent a substantial proportion of the consolidated financial statements. c. Further, there is an unreconciled balance of Rs. 242.64 lakhs in the amounts stated as borrowings in note 22 to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2026, the recorded balance in the consolidated financial statements being lower. |
