Mahalaxmi Rubtech Pays ₹23,600 to BSE and NSE for Late XBRL Voting Results

Mahalaxmi Rubtech Limited paid ₹23,600 in fines to BSE and NSE for delaying the submission of voting results in XBRL format, ₹11,800 to each exchange inclusive of GST. ScanX reported the payment, which followed a notice dated October 14, 2026.

Mahalaxmi Rubtech's XBRL Filing and the ₹23,600 Penalty

The penalty was imposed under Regulation 44(3) of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, and relates to the Annual General Meeting held on September 25, 2026. Each notice carried a basic fine of ₹10,000 plus GST at 18%, or ₹11,800 per exchange. The notices referenced SEBI Circular No. HO/49/14/14(7)2025-CFD-POD2/I/3762/2026, which sets out the standard operating procedure for imposing fines, and warned that non-payment within 15 days could lead to freezing of promoter shareholdings.

Mahalaxmi Rubtech said it submitted the voting results and the Scrutiniser's Report on September 26, 2026, within the prescribed timeline, but an inadvertent oversight prevented a separate upload under the "XBRL – Voting Results" tab on the exchange portals. The company stated there was no malafide intent or intention to withhold information from stakeholders, and that it uploaded the required data once the omission was found. Mahalaxmi Rubtech remitted ₹11,800 to each exchange on October 21, 2026, within the 15-day payment window.
