  • Recovery of differential Customs duty of about Rs 13.97 Crores under Section 28(4) of the Customs Act, 1962, along with the imposition of interest under Section 28AA, ibid. and penalties.

The company has asserted that it is not satisfied with the findings specified in the notice, and it has valid grounds to challenge the same before the relevant appellate authority. Consequently, the company is planning to avail itself of the appropriate appellate remedies within the prescribed time limits. The company has clarified that the present action does not have any additional material impact on its financial, operational and business activities.

Fujiyama Power Systems Limited (UTL Solar) has made the aforementioned disclosure via an Intimation dated June 18, 2026, issued under Regulation 30 of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended (“SEBI Listing Regulations”).
