Amara Raja Energy & Mobility Limited (ARE&M) has submitted disclosures regarding two orders received under SEBI regulations. The first order, issued by the Deputy Commercial Tax Officer in Erode, Tamil Nadu, pertains to a violation of Rule 138 of the CGST/TNGST Act, 2017. The company paid a penalty of ₹28,43,770 for a mismatch between the tax invoice's "Bill-to" address and the customer's registered place of business under GST. ARE&M stated that this penalty will be recovered from the contractor and an appeal will be filed, asserting no GST non-payment by the company. The order was received on December 26, 2025, late in the evening, and came to the company's notice on December 30, 2025, due to being uploaded on a temporary ID instead of the regular GSTIN ID. The company has indicated no material impact on its financials, operations, or other activities.

The second order was issued by the Deputy Commissioner of Income Tax, Circle-1(1), Tirupati, Andhra Pradesh, under Section 143(1) of the Income Tax Act, 1961. This order raises a demand of ₹15,26,97,878, including interest of ₹1,79,38,720, pursuant to the return of income filed under section 170A of the Act for the assessment year 2023-24. ARE&M believes there are infirmities in the order and considers the demand not maintainable. The company is preparing to file an appeal and rectification against this order, and thus, there is no expected impact on its financials, operations, or other activities.
