"We are currently reviewing the contents of the Notice and will take all appropriate legal and procedural steps, including providing a timely response to the SEBI. The Company, Noticee and all concerned remain committed to fully cooperating with SEBI to resolve this matter in accordance with the applicable legal and regulatory framework," Kaynes Technology stated in a BSE filing.
