The Company is one of the parties against which the order has been issued. The CCI has levied a fine of Rs.13.85 crores on the Company. &lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt;The Company came to know about the judgment of CCI only through print media as there was no prior date intimated by CCI for pronouncing judgment. The Company has not yet received any formal certified copy of the judgment. Further, the Company is examining the order as appearing on the Website of CCI and will take appropriate steps as may be advised to protect its interest. However, at the preliminary observation of the order it appears that there would not be any material impact on the Company.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;In view of the above, the Company has not intimated to the stock exchanges in terms of clause 36 of the listing agreement.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The Company will keep the Stock Exchanges informed of any adverse development in the matter.&quot;
