Criminal counts for the Company reflect proceedings filed BY the Company (GM Online FIR, Anand Gupta revision petition, and two NI Act applications); criminal proceedings AGAINST the Company are stated as Nil (excluding unnoted MV Act traffic violations). 'Other' for the Company is the EPF/RPFC regulatory action (Vimlesh Kumar Tiwari matter). 'Other' for Directors is the SEBI show cause notice to Dinesh Kumar Mittal. Total amount is the sum of stated tax aggregates only (₹29.14 million indirect tax + ₹1.34 million direct tax = ₹30.48 million = ₹3.048 crore); no aggregate amount is stated for the criminal/regulatory matters. Group companies: no pending material litigation (p454).. Outstanding means unresolved — a listed case is an exposure, not a verdict.
