Auditor's Qualified Opinion
The statutory auditor has issued a 'Qualified Opinion' on Srestha Finvest's financial results for the year ended March 31, 2026. This qualification arises from the company's decision not to provide for interest amounting to ₹0.68 crore (₹68.25 lakh) on borrowings from Arcadia Shipping Ltd.
Management states there is an ongoing dispute regarding this interest and its repayment. The company is seeking legal advice on the matter. The non-provision of this interest expense has artificially reduced finance costs and the reported net loss by ₹0.68 crore.

- Lending Division: Reported revenue of ₹6.94 crore with a pre-tax loss of ₹12.41 crore.
- Investment/Trading: Reported revenue of ₹0.47 crore with a pre-tax profit of ₹0.47 crore.
