Earlier this month, Gammon India said the publication of its financial results for the quarter and half year ended Sept. 30, 2019, has been delayed as it was undergoing a financial crisis and was facing difficulties in hiring employees.
"The company is also undergoing financial crisis and as a result the company is facing difficulties in attracting/hiring employees,” Gammon India had said in a BSE filing.
“This has delayed the preparation and finalization of accounts and hence publication of financial results for the quarter and half year ended Sept. 30, 2019, is delayed,” the company said, adding that it intends to publish the pending results at the earliest.
