Awaiting price reaction for this filing.
Patanjali Foods informed the exchanges about an update in its ongoing Central GST (CGST) litigation with the Uttar Pradesh tax authorities. The Office of the Commissioner, CGST (Appeals), Meerut has rejected both the appeal filed by the tax department and the company's own appeal against the original order dated January 10, 2025. As a result, the original order demanding Rs. 44.82 lakh along with a penalty of an equal amount (Rs. 44.82 lakh) has been upheld. The total potential financial impact is about Rs. 89.64 lakh. The company has stated that the amount is not material to its overall financial position and operations, and plans to take the matter to a higher appellate authority to continue defending its case.
This is a minor negative legal development, but the financial exposure is small relative to Patanjali Foods' size and is unlikely to materially affect the stock. Investors should note the company intends to appeal further, so the matter is not yet final.
