4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

Resignation

of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

July 23, 2026, Stephano Slack LLC (“Stephano Slack”) informed us of their resignation, effective July 2, 2026,

from its role as independent registered public accounting firm for PetVivo Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”).

Stephano

Slack’s reports on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2026 and

March 31, 2025 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit

scope or accounting principles.

During

the fiscal years ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025 and the subsequent interim period through July 23, 2026, (i) there were

no disagreements within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K, between the Company and Stephano Slack on any matter of

accounting principles or practices.

During

the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026 and the subsequent interim period through the date of dismissal, there was a reportable event (as

defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K). Specifically, Stephano’s report on the Company’s consolidated financial

statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026 contained an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about the Company’s

ability to continue as a going concern. Except for the foregoing, there were no reportable events (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of

Regulation S-K).

The

Company provided Stephano Slack with a copy of the above disclosures and requested that Stephano Slack furnish a letter addressed to

the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements made herein. A copy of Stephano Slack’s letter

dated July 23, 2026 is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Newly

Engaged Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

July 23, 2026, upon approval by the Audit Committee, the Company engaged GuzmanGray, A Professional Accountancy Corporation (“GuzmanGray”),

effective as of such date, as the Company’s new independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending March

31, 2027 including interim review periods ending June 30, 2026, September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2026.

During

the Company’s fiscal years ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025 and the subsequent interim period through July 23, 2026,

neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf has consulted with GuzmanGray regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to

a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial

statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that GuzmanGray concluded was an important

factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue, (ii) any matter

that was the subject of a disagreement within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K, or (iii) any reportable event within

the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
