RVNL Receives GST Demand Notice; No Allegations or Business Impact Says Company
The issue arose when the company, R Systems, registered a "Change in Shareholding Deed" on November 9, 2023, which recorded changes in the share ownership of the company. When these documents were submitted at the Sub-Registrar office in Gautam Buddha Nagar, it was discovered that the company had paid less stamp duty than that of actually required. These mistakes were detected under the rule of the Indian Stamp Act, 1899, read with Uttar Pradesh Stamp (Sampatti Ka Mulyankan Niyamawali) 1997. The authority has now asked the company to pay the remaining stamp duty along with a penalty. R Systems International Limited has clarified that this action does not impact their financial condition, business operations, or daily functioning in any way. This information is shared by the company to meet the rules set by SEBI (the stock market regulator) in a circular dated November 11, 2024. According to this rule, it is necessary for the company to report legal and regulatory issues to the stock exchange in a specific format. This filing ensures transparency, investor protection, and market integrity.
