Adjudication Order in respect of HRB Floriculture Ltd in the matter of HRB Floriculture Ltd Page 3 of 10 shares (less than 1%) during the period June 2006 to September 2011 and therefore the filing of the quarterly disclosure during the aforesaid period would not have any bearing on the interest of the investors or other stakeholders of the company. It may be relevant to note that in the event of no significant change in the shareholding of the non-promoter category, filing of the same shareholding pattern would have been a mere formality, the consequences of the non-filing, therefore, is not fatal. It is therefore humbly submitted that a lenient view against the company is expected from the adjudicating authority while dealing with the issue in question.
