Statement on Impact of Audit Qualifications for the Financial Year ended March 31, 2025
Awaiting price reaction for this filing.
The statutory auditor has issued a qualified opinion on Bheema Cements' FY25 audited results, marking the second consecutive year with such a qualification. The company reported negligible revenue of Rs. 5.56 lakhs against total expenditure of Rs. 770.02 lakhs, resulting in a net loss of Rs. 639.35 lakhs (EPS of negative Rs. 1.96). Factory operations remain suspended despite the company having emerged from CIRP, as the resolution applicant has not received the necessary business licenses. Key concerns include non-payment of dues to financial creditors (Union Bank and JM Financial Asset Reconstruction Company) under NCLAT orders, an active liquidation petition, Rs. 9.58 lakhs of unpaid TDS, unreconciled trade receivables/payables, and SEBI having suspended trading due to non-payment of annual listing fees. The auditor has flagged a material uncertainty about the company's ability to continue as a going concern.
This is a deeply negative filing for shareholders — the company is operationally non-functional, in regulatory default on multiple fronts, faces an active liquidation threat, and the auditor has explicitly raised going concern doubts. Investors should treat this as a high-risk situation with potential for significant loss of capital.
