On August 20, 2025, the disputed company filed an adjudication application, acknowledging non-compliance committed by it under Section 42(8) of the Companies Act, 2013. The company made the securities allotment on February 24, 2021. Every company is required to file Form PAS-3 with the Registrar of Companies within fifteen days from the date of allotment.
