The Company incurred a loss of ₹1,596.89 lakhs during the year under review as compared to a profit of ₹14,879.22 lakhs in the previous year. The loss during the year was mainly attributable to the disposal of the charged assets pursuant to enforcement of the charge by the Lender, owing to the Company’s inability to repay the outstanding debt. The disposal resulted in disruption of the Company’s operations and adversely affected its overall financial performance. FUTURE OUTLOOK The Company is in the process of transferring its assets to the lenders in compliance with the Award dated 24.11.2025. This decision follows careful analysis and is aimed at reducing the Company's debt liability and securing its long-term prosperity. The Company is also entering the trading business in iron, metals, steel and related products. With its long experience in the iron and steel industry, the Company sees trading as a way to diversify and expand its revenue-generating activities, and to take up market opportunities as they arise, either on its own account or on behalf of others. This will help the Company keep its business going and improve its earnings while it reduces its debt. 34th ANNUAL REPORT 2025-26 CAPITAL & RESERVES During the year there is no change in the capital of the Company. Company has not transferred any amount to the General Reserve. DIVIDEND In view of inadequate profit during the year, Board of Directors has not recommended Dividend for distribution.
