"The Committee has also reviewed the matter that is already under adjudication with SEBI, and has stated that no further action is required by the Company," it said.

After this, the Board of ZEEL has advised the company to settle pending adjudication proceedings with Sebi in a time-bound manner, in the interest of the shareholders and all stakeholders of the company.
