Kirloskar Ferrous Industries Limited (KFIL) has announced that its Scheme of Arrangement with Oliver Engineering Private Limited and Adicca Energy Solutions Private Limited became operative effective April 1, 2025. The merger follows an order passed by the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT), Mumbai Bench, on June 2, 2026. KFIL filed the certified true copy of the order with the Registrar of Companies, Pune, on June 11, 2026, in compliance with the tribunal's directives.
The transferor companies, Oliver Engineering Private Limited and Adicca Energy Solutions Private Limited, have merged into and with KFIL and dissolved without being wound up from the effective date. As the transferor companies were wholly owned subsidiaries of KFIL, no shares of the transferee company were issued in exchange for the holdings. The issued and paid-up capital of the transferor companies stands cancelled.
Consequently, KFIL has amended its capital clause in the Memorandum of Association. The authorized share capital is now ₹389.61 crore, divided into 54.52 crore equity shares of ₹5 each and 11.70 crore preference shares of ₹10 each.
Financial Performance
KFIL reported a 73.4% rise in net profit to ₹504.74 crore for the year ended March 31, 2026, compared to ₹291.00 crore in the previous year. Revenue from operations increased 4.6% to ₹6,888.57 crore from ₹6,584.22 crore in FY25. The Board of Directors recommended a final dividend of ₹3 per equity share of ₹5 each, subject to shareholder approval.
Merger Impact
The financial results reflect the effectiveness of the Scheme of Arrangement sanctioned by the NCLT. The merger resulted in the transfer of unabsorbed depreciation and carried forward losses, which were utilised during the year. Consequently, the company recognised a deferred tax asset of ₹141.28 crore and reversed a current tax expense of ₹110.38 crore, significantly boosting the bottom line.
