Incident Disclosure
On July 17, 2026, at approximately 12:24 p.m., an Articled Assistant of M/s. Walker Chandiok & Co LLP, the Statutory Auditors of Nava Limited, inadvertently sent an email containing the draft management accounts of Maamba Energy Ltd (a material subsidiary of the Company) for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 to an employee of another client of the Statutory Auditors (unintended recipient).
The email was intended for two employees of the Company responsible for accounts consolidation and audit coordination, with a copy to the concerned audit team of the Statutory Auditors. While one intended Company employee was correctly addressed, the email address of the other intended Company employee was inadvertently replaced with that of the unintended recipient.
Containment Actions
Upon becoming aware of the incident, the Articled Assistant promptly initiated email recall within 15 minutes of transmission and secured confirmation from the unintended recipient of permanent deletion.
The Statutory Auditors obtained confirmations from the unintended recipient that:
- The unintended recipient had neither accessed nor reviewed the contents of the management accounts
- The information contained in the email had not been shared, forwarded or otherwise disseminated to any third party
- The email, together with its contents and attachments, had been permanently deleted from the unintended recipient's email account, computer system and records
