Company is bound to answer shareholders queries. Otherwise a shareholder may raise a complaint against the company with sebi or STX.

Whether a complaint is true or false is a matter to be decided by the concerned authority or SEBI.

So it is advisable to answer shareholders queries as early as possible to avoid administrative inconvenience.
