Cash-strapped Dewan Housing Finance Corporation Ltd (DHFL) Friday postponed its financial results for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2019, by two weeks.
DHFL said the postponement is due to "certain unforeseen operational engagements including non-availability of a few directors to ensure participation of all the members of the audit committee as well as the board for taking into consideration and approval of the financial results for the fourth quarter/financial year ended March 31, 2019".
The non-banking finance company has been facing liquidity crisis and has recently defaulted on its repayment obligations.
The company has resorted to various modes of fund mop-up including selling stake in subsidiary firms to meet its debt obligations.
"The date of the board meeting... to consider and approve the audited financial results of the company for the fourth quarter/financial year ended March 31, 2019, and matters relating to the ensuing annual general meeting, as intimated earlier that June 29, 2019, is being postponed to July 13, 2019," DHFL said in a regulatory filing.
Dewan Housing Finance Corporation Ltd (DHFL) earlier this week said it will shortly divest its full stakes in subsidiary firms DHFL Pramerica Asset Managers and DHFL Pramerica Trustees.
