₹986 cr Pending arbitration claim against NHAI over a tollway project.

What's new

  • Statutory auditors issued a modified opinion on consolidated results, citing repeated qualifications.
  • Audit flags include an abandoned tollway project with a ₹986 cr arbitration claim against NHAI.
  • Auditors also flagged irregular interest accounting for inter-company loans at subsidiaries.

Why this matters

The repeated audit qualifications are a governance problem for a firm fresh out of insolvency. Resolving the ₹986 cr claim would clear a major balance-sheet overhang, while the loan-accounting issues undermine confidence in the subsidiary structure just as the company seeks a credit upgrade to finalize its ₹21 cr resolution plan.

What we're watching

  • Whether banks upgrade the company's account from NPA to 'Standard' status.
  • Any progress or settlement of the ₹986 cr arbitration claim against NHAI.
  • The final outcome of the auditor re-appointments and next-year audit scope.

The full read

Twamev Construction's statutory auditors qualified their consolidated opinion for FY26. They cited two repetitive problems at subsidiaries. The largest is an abandoned tollway project tied to a ₹986 crore arbitration claim against NHAI. The second is irregular interest accounting on inter-company loans. For a company that just exited insolvency with a ₹21 crore resolution plan, the audit flags are a governance problem. The plan's completion hinges on banks upgrading its credit status from NPA to 'Standard'. Revenue fell to ₹67.45 crore for the year, though the company held a standalone net profit of ₹9.10 crore. The board re-appointed its auditors. The unresolved claim and loan issues remain.
