During the year, the Company continued to operate as a holding company, with its performance dependent on its wholly owned subsidiary Cygnet Industries Ltd, which faced challenging business conditions resulting in losses. Consequently, the Company’s consolidated performance remained under pressure. A significant development during the year was the announcement of an open offer under the SEBI (Substantial Acquisition of Shares and Takeovers) Regulations, 2011. Subject to the completion of the regulatory process, the Company is expected to undergo a change in control and management. Your Board remains committed to ensuring a smooth and transparent transition. The Company continues to uphold high standards of corporate governance and regulatory compliance. On behalf of the Board, I thank our shareholders, employees, and all stakeholders for their continued trust and support.
