Dear Sir/ Madam,
Sub: Disclosure of material event/information as per Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure
Requirements) Regulations, 2015 – Update on Ongoing Litigation.
Dear Sir / Madam,
In compliance with Regulation 30 read with Para B of Part A of Schedule III of the Securities and Exchange Board of
India (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 ("Listing Regulations"), we hereby
inform that the Hon’ble High Court of Judicature at Bombay, vide its judgment dated July 16, 2026, in proceedings
baring Commercial Arbitration Petition No. 215 of 2022, initiated under Section 34 of the Arbitration and
Conciliation Act, 1996 involving Shah Atul P. HUF ("the Client"), has quashed and set aside the arbitral award dated
January 6, 2022 ("the Impugned Award"). The Impugned Award had been passed by the Arbitral Tribunal of the
National Commodity & Derivatives Exchange Limited (“NCDEX”) in remanded arbitration reference No.
NCDEX/REM/ARB/018/2021-22, whereby the Client was directed to pay the Company a sum of ₹4,93,54,947.40
(Rupees Four Crore Ninety-Three Lakh Fifty-Four Thousand Nine Hundred Forty-Seven and Paise Forty only),
together with applicable interest. The dispute pertained to certain trading transactions in castor seed contracts at
NCDEX platform undertaken during September–October 2019. While quashing and setting aside the Impugned
Award, the Hon’ble High Court of Judicature at Bombay has held that:
“The principle enunciated by the decisions of the Hon’ble Apex Court underscore the importance of
maintaining judicial discipline based on the hierarchy of Courts. It is not open for the subordinate Tribunal
to sit in appeal over the order of Appellate Tribunal, which would result in chaos in administration of justice.
In my view, this is one of the exceptional cases which shocks the conscience of the Court when the validity
of the award of the Appellate Tribunal is examined by the Arbitral Tribunal and set aside by the Arbitral
Tribunal, using unwarranted expressions whilst doing so. It is the fundamental policy of Indian Law and
bedrock of our judicial system that the orders of the Appellate Court are required to be respected and
accepted by the subordinate Court, following the principle of hierarchy of the Courts, which cannot be
compromised. The impugned Award being contrary to the fundamental policy of Indian Law is clearly
unsustainable and is hereby quashed and set aside under Section 34(2)(b)(ii) of the Arbitration Act.”
