If the subject report could not be filed without unreasonable effort or expense and the registrant seeks relief pursuant to Rule 12b-25(b), the following should be completed. (Check box if appropriate)



	(a)	The reason described in reasonable detail in Part III of this form could not be eliminated without unreasonable effort or expense;

x	(b)	The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition report on Form 10-K, Form 20-F, Form 11-K, Form N-CEN or Form N-CSR, or portion thereof, will be filed on or before the fifteenth calendar day following the prescribed due date; or the subject quarterly report or transition report on Form 10-Q or subject distribution report on Form 10-D, or portion thereof, will be filed on or before the fifth calendar day following the prescribed due date; and

PART III—NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable detail the reason why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, N-CEN, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

The Registrant is unable to file its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024 (the “Report”) by the prescribed due date of July 31, 2024, without unreasonable effort or expense for the following reasons:

On May 3, 2024, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) entered an order (the “Order”) instituting settled administrative and cease-and-desist proceedings against BF Borgers CPA PC (“BF Borgers”) and its sole audit partner, denying BF Borgers the privilege of appearing or practicing before the SEC as an accountant. As a result of the Order, Form 20-F filings on or after May 3, 2024, may not include audit reports from BF Borgers; each fiscal year presented must be audited by a qualified, independent, Public Company Accounting Oversight Board-registered public accountant that is permitted to appear or practice before the SEC.

BF Borgers, as the Registrant’s then independent registered public accounting firm, audited the consolidated statements of financial position of the Registrant as of March 31, 2022, and the related statements of profit and loss and comprehensive loss, changes in equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended (the “2022 Financial Statements”), which are required to be included in the Report. (BF Borgers was dismissed as the Registrant’s independent registered public accounting firm on April 18, 2023).

Accordingly, the Registrant has engaged its current independent registered public accounting firm, Reliant CPA PC, to re-audit the 2022 Financial Statements. This audit could not be completed by the prescribed due date of the Report without unreasonable effort or expense on the part of the Registrant.

In accordance with Rule 12b-25 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Registrant intends to file the Report on or prior to the fifteenth calendar day following the prescribed due date.

(2)	Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed?
