“In this regard, Shakarganj Limited wishes to clarify for the information of the exchange and the investing public that AsiaPak Investments has not made any investment, acquisition, or equity participation in Shakarganj Food Products Limited. Any implication to this extent in the said advertisement, therefore, is factually incorrect.

“This clarification is being submitted in the interest of transparency and to avoid any misunderstanding or misinformation in the market,” read the notice.

AsiaPak Investments’ advertisement, titled “Pakistan: We Are Maximum Bullish”, highlighted its investment outlook on Pakistan and listed several companies, including Shakarganj Food Products, as part of its acquisition portfolio.
