Attached herewith is the Annual Secretarial Compliance Report for the financial year ended March 31, 2025.
Awaiting price reaction for this filing.
Univa Foods has filed its Annual Secretarial Compliance Report for FY 2024-25, certified by HRU & Associates, Practicing Company Secretaries, as required under SEBI Regulation 24A. The report identifies two compliance deviations during the year: a 2-day delay in appointing the Company Secretary and Compliance Officer under Regulation 6 (fine of Rs. 5,000 + GST, paid), and a delay in meeting board composition norms under Regulation 17(1) related to appointing a woman independent director (fine of Rs. 1,00,000 + GST, paid). Several older non-compliances from FY 2022-23 and FY 2023-24 are also noted, including late XBRL filings of the annual report and director appointments, missed filing deadlines for investor grievance reports, and promoters not making required SAST disclosures. The company has no subsidiaries and no statutory auditor resignations during the year.
Multiple past and current filing lapses point to weak governance and compliance discipline, though fines paid are small relative to company size. Shareholders should monitor whether the company's promise of stronger processes translates into timely future disclosures, as repeated delays risk higher penalties or regulatory scrutiny.
