Hemadri Cements Limited (BSE: 502133) reported a net loss of ₹60.08 lakh for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, narrowing significantly from the ₹286.56 lakh loss posted in the corresponding period of FY25. The cement manufacturer, which has been under voluntary liquidation since July 14, 2025, recorded zero revenue from operations as it winds down its business activities.
The financial results were prepared on a liquidation basis rather than a going concern basis, reflecting the ongoing asset realization process. Equity shares of the company have been suspended from trading on the Bombay Stock Exchange since November 24, 2025.
Financial Performance
The company’s total income for the quarter stood at ₹7.36 lakh, derived entirely from other income sources. This compares to ₹39.96 lakh in total income for the same quarter last year. Total expenses came in at ₹67.44 lakh, driven primarily by power and fuel costs of ₹28.43 lakh and other expenses of ₹39.01 lakh.
| Metric | Q1FY26 (Unaudited) | Q1FY25 (Unaudited) |
|---|---|---|
| Revenue from Operations | ₹0 lakh | ₹0 lakh |
| Other Income | ₹7.36 lakh | ₹39.96 lakh |
| Total Expenses | ₹67.44 lakh | ₹326.52 lakh |
| Net Profit / (Loss) | (₹60.08 lakh) | (₹286.56 lakh) |
| EPS (Basic) | (₹0.90) | (₹4.30) |
Earnings per share (EPS) stood at a loss of ₹0.90 per equity share, an improvement from the ₹4.30 loss per share recorded in Q1FY25. For the full fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, the company reported a net loss of ₹508.42 lakh.
Liquidation Progress
The voluntary liquidation process has seen active steps toward asset realization and creditor settlement. During December 2025, the valuation exercise was completed, and part of the assets were e-auctioned in accordance with the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016. Proceeds from these sales were used to distribute funds to creditors based on their admitted claims in February 2026.
In July 2026, the liquidator initiated the process of interim distribution to equity shareholders at face value (₹10 per share). The liquidator continues to e-auction the remaining assets of the company to maximize recovery for stakeholders.
What the Numbers Show
The drastic reduction in total expenses—from ₹326.52 lakh in Q1FY25 to ₹67.44 lakh in Q1FY26—highlights the operational wind-down. With zero revenue from operations and minimal employee benefit expenses (₹0 lakh vs ₹65.66 lakh in the prior year), the company is effectively ceasing core business activities. The current losses are primarily driven by residual overheads such as power, fuel, and administrative costs associated with maintaining the entity during liquidation, rather than operational deficits.
What is the estimated timeline for the liquidator to complete the e-auction of remaining assets and finalize the liquidation process?
How might the interim distribution of ₹10 per share impact investor sentiment regarding final recovery rates for equity holders?
Are there any pending legal disputes or creditor claims that could delay the final settlement and distribution of proceeds?
