Wholly owned subsidiary Sambhv Tubes filed an FIR on Jan 16, 2026 at Saraswati Nagar Police Station, Raipur against 14 parties for alleged fraud in a land purchase at Nevda, Chhattisgarh. Advance of Rs 11.51 crore was paid; Rs 6 crore via demand draft and Rs 3 crore via cheques already recovered. Balance Rs 2.51 crore is under active follow-up for refund. Company says no penalty or compensation outflow is expected. Disclosure was delayed due to internal review and verification but the company states the delay was not deliberate.
Company is acting as complainant, not accused. Most funds recovered; Rs 2.51 crore pending. Limited expected financial impact, but delayed disclosure may raise governance concerns.
