June 06, 2026
(MLN): The Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP) has
concluded enforcement proceedings against 36 State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs),
imposing monetary penalties totaling Rs3.175 million through 46 adjudication
orders, with warning orders issued in 12 additional cases.
The proceedings
followed 66 Show Cause Notices (SCNs) issued by the SECP in March 2026 to 41
SOEs for violations, according to a press release issued.
The violations
included failure to submit annual audited financial statements and annual
returns within prescribed timelines, non-compliance with disclosure
requirements, and breaches of Corporate Governance Regulations.
Proceedings have
since been concluded in 58 cases.
Penalties ranged
from Rs25,000 for failure to file annual returns to Rs50,000 for failure to
file both annual returns and financial statements.
The highest
penalty of Rs225,000 was imposed for repeated non-compliance with statutory
filing requirements.
Several SOEs regularized
their compliance by filing outstanding annual returns following receipt of the
SCNs.
To support this
process, the SECP established a dedicated help desk to assist SOEs with annual
returns and other statutory filings.
Copies of
adjudication orders have been shared with the relevant Principal Accounting
Officers and the Director General of the Central Monitoring Unit for follow-up.
The SECP has
advised all SOEs to strengthen internal compliance systems and ensure timely
fulfilment of statutory obligations to avoid future enforcement action.
