About the Lawsuit

Agria and certain of its executives are charged with failing to disclose material information during the Class Period, violating federal securities laws. 

On November 4, 2016, Agria revealed that it received a letter from the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") stating that the NYSE decided to commence proceedings to delist Agria ADRs from the NYSE.  The NYSE's letter further claimed that Agria:  (i) through a top executive and other intermediaries engaged in trading intended to artificially inflate Agria's stock price, including to improperly avoid having the company delisted for failing to comply with the NYSE's continued listing standards; and (ii) provided incomplete, misleading, or false information in connection with investigations related to these issues.
