Clarification on clause 41 of listing agreement.

Others 1144 views 3 replies

clause 41 (d). of the standard listing agreement of BSE states that the audited annual a/cs be submitted in 60 days, along with the last quarter's audited a/cs.

clause 41 (eaa) thereof states that when a co. opts to submit un-audited a/cs. for the last quarter, it can do so by submitting statemement of assets and liabilities at the end of the f.y. only with audited financial a/cs., as soon as they are approved by the board..

query :

1. both para are independent of each other or to be read together?

because independently under (eaa) the last quarter results can be submitted in 45 days in terms of 41 (c). but it does not cap the time limit for holding the board meeting for audited a/cs.- i.e. can it be held beyond 60 days?

2. but if read together the board meeting has to be held in 60 days for f.y. audited results, whether last Q's result are declared as un-audited in 45 days or declared as audited abd submitted along with it.

request to throw light on the subject.

SEBI vide its circular dated 5th October, 2011 had amended Clause 41 of the listing Agreement asking Companies to submit audited financial results for the entire financial year, within sixty days of the end of the financial year. The company shall also submit the audited financial results in respect of the last quarter along with the results for the entire financial year, with a note that the figures of last quarter are the balancing figures between audited figures in respect of the full financial year and the published year to date figures upto the third quarter of the current financial year.

rule of harmonious construction will apply.

The Company has an option to submit audited or unaudited quarterly and year to date financial results within 45 days of the end of each quarter (other than the last quarter). If the Company opts to submit unaudited results it shall be subject to Limited Review by the Statutory Auditors of the Company and the Limited Review Report shall be furnished to the Stock Exchange within 45 days from the end of quarter. If the Company opts to submit audited results it shall be accompanied with audit report.

 

The Company shall submit Audited Financial Results for the entire financial year, within 60 days of the end of financial year. The Company shall also submit the audited financial results in respect of last quarter along with the results of the entire financial year along with the note that the figures of the last quarter are the balancing figures between the Audited Figures of the full financial year and the published year to date figures upto the third quarter of the current financial year.

 

It means now the Company has to mandatorily submit Audited Results for the last quarter along with the results of Entire Financial year together within 60 days of the end of financial year.

 

As a part of audited or unaudited financial results for every half year the Company shall also submit by way of note a Statement of Assets and Liabilities
