Thinkink's auditor can't verify anything. Not even the revenue.
A Disclaimer of Opinion is not a qualification. The auditor is refusing to sign off on any of it.
What's new
- Statutory auditor Chandabhoy & Jassoobhoy issued a Disclaimer of Opinion for FY26.
- The auditor could not verify inventory, bank balances, sales, or assets due to no documentation.
- Revenue fell 72% year-on-year to ₹2.47 crore from ₹8.98 crore.
Why this matters
This is the worst possible audit outcome. The auditor is not saying the numbers are wrong. It is saying it saw so little cooperation it cannot form any opinion at all. That renders the entire financial statement unreliable.
What we're watching
- Whether SEBI or the stock exchanges launch a governance probe.
- Any official company response to the auditor's specific findings.
- Whether the ₹2.47 crore revenue figure is ever substantiated.
The full read
Thinkink Picturez generated ₹2.47 crore in revenue last year. Its auditor says that number is a guess. Chandabhoy & Jassoobhoy issued a Disclaimer of Opinion, the most severe finding an auditor can make. Management provided almost no documentation. The auditor could not confirm inventory, bank balances, sales, or assets. This is the formal confirmation of the problems that surfaced when the CFO resigned over blocked data access. A 72% revenue collapse from ₹8.98 crore is severe on its own. When the auditor refuses to sign off on even that number, the financials are fiction.
