Arshiya Ltd Faces Deep Crisis: Net Loss Reported, Auditors Issue Disclaimer
Arshiya Limited reported a net loss of ₹1.51 crore for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. The company's total income stood at ₹4.71 crore. Reader Takeaway: Net loss reported amid insolvency; auditors cannot verify financials. ## What just happened Arshiya Limited announced its un-audited financial results for the quarter and half-year ended September 30, 2025. The company reported a net loss of ₹1.51 crore for the quarter, a significant swing from a profit of ₹0.37 crore in the previous quarter. Revenue from operations remained flat at ₹4.50 crore. ## Why this matters These results come at a critical juncture as Arshiya Limited is under Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) since April 23, 2024. More significantly, the statutory auditors, M/s Artha & Associates, have issued a 'Disclaimer of Conclusion'. This means they could not obtain sufficient evidence to provide any assurance on the financial statements, citing numerous substantial issues. ## The backstory Arshiya Limited has been grappling with severe financial and operational challenges. The company is undergoing CIRP, with the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) Mumbai initiating the process. The former board has been suspended, and a Resolution Professional (RP) is managing the company as a going concern. ## What changes now The auditor's disclaimer fundamentally questions the reliability of the reported financial figures. The company faces severe operational disruptions, including mass resignations of employees (50 out of 71 resigned in early August 2024 and key accounting staff on December 31, 2025), leading to a loss of institutional knowledge and internal control breakdown. Key warehouse sub-lease agreements were also terminated in July 2024. ## Risks to watch The auditors highlighted several critical issues: limitations in accessing records due to CIRP, operational disruption from employee resignations, recognition of ₹9 crore revenue without evidence of contracts, non-assessment of asset impairment, and failure to recognize corporate guarantee obligations. These factors point to potential material misstatements. ## Peer comparison Companies undergoing CIRP typically face significant valuation challenges and operational hurdles. Arshiya's situation is exacerbated by the auditor's disclaimer, which is a severe red flag for any potential investors or resolution applicants. ## Context metrics (time-bound) As of September 30, 2025, Arshiya's total assets were ₹1,456.78 crore, while its current liabilities stood at ₹2,898.02 crore. The company also has contingent liabilities of approximately ₹1,038.50 crore related to corporate guarantees to subsidiaries, with ongoing legal claims. ## What to track next Investors should closely monitor the progress of the CIRP proceedings. The outcome will heavily depend on the NCLT's decisions and the approval of a viable resolution plan. The ability of the company to overcome operational challenges and address the auditors' concerns will be crucial.
