Zenith Steel Pipes & Industries has responded to NSE's queries on its FY25 (ended March 31, 2025) financial results, clarifying that earlier submissions contained typographical errors labelling consolidated statements as standalone. The company has now resubmitted the corrected consolidated balance sheet and cash flow statement. The audited consolidated results show total income of Rs 12,925.51 lakhs against expenditure of Rs 12,877.58 lakhs, yielding a marginal net profit of just Rs 22.51 lakhs (EPS of Rs 0.02). However, the company's net worth is deeply negative at Rs (25,675.24) lakhs against total liabilities of Rs 41,538.96 lakhs. The auditor has flagged five repetitive qualifications including non-compliance with Section 74 (non-repayment of public deposits), unreconciled trade payables/receivables, frozen bank accounts, inventory valuation concerns, and a material going concern doubt since accumulated losses have fully eroded the company's net worth.
This is a deeply negative filing for shareholders. The auditor has explicitly stated that the going concern basis is not adequately supported, meaning there is serious doubt about whether the company can continue operating. With negative net worth of over Rs 256 crore, frozen bank accounts, and unresolved public deposit defaults, the stock carries significant risk and is likely to face continued regulatory and trading scrutiny.
