Garware Hi-Tech Films has received a notice of demand of Rs. 18.37 crore from the Income Tax Department under section 156 of the Income Tax Act, following a rectification computation under section 154 for Assessment Year 2020-21. The order was passed on March 10, 2026, and received by the company via email on March 30, 2026. The company states it was not given prior notice or an opportunity to be heard, that an MAT credit of Rs. 15.12 crore was ignored, and that an addition of Rs. 1.41 crore is erroneous. Garware plans to file a rectification application and is confident of a favourable outcome at the appellate stage.
The company believes the demand is not maintainable and will not have a material financial impact, but until resolved, the Rs. 18.37 crore tax demand remains a contingent liability that could weigh on investor sentiment if not overturned quickly.
