Special Window for Physical Shares

Pursuant to SEBI circular No. HO/38/13/11(2)2026-MIRSD-POD/II/3750/2026 dated January 30, 2026, Maral Overseas Limited is facilitating a special window for the transfer and demat of physical securities.

Maral Overseas Limited returned to profitability in the first quarter of FY27, reporting a net profit of ₹5.98 lakh compared to a net loss of ₹12.57 lakh in Q1FY26. The turnaround was driven by a 16.7% year-on-year increase in revenue from operations, which stood at ₹263.21 lakh, up from ₹225.50 lakh in the corresponding period of the previous fiscal year. This improvement signals a recovery in operational efficiency following the exceptional costs incurred in the previous fiscal year due to the implementation of new labour codes.

The Board of Directors approved the unaudited financial results on July 30, 2026. Statutory auditors S S Kothari Mehta & Co. LLP issued an unqualified limited review report for the quarter ended June 30, 2026. In addition to the financial results, the Board extended the timeline for the proposed acquisition of a 26% equity stake in Asawata Energy Private Limited by six months, until February 6, 2027. This extension is due to ongoing commercial negotiations and pending statutory approvals for setting up a 15 MW solar power plant under the Group Captive Model.

Financial Performance Highlights

Revenue from operations increased to ₹263.21 lakh in Q1FY27 from ₹258.22 lakh in the preceding quarter (Q4FY26) and ₹225.50 lakh in Q1FY26. Other income declined significantly to ₹5.73 lakh from ₹9.82 lakh in Q4FY26. Total income for the quarter reached ₹268.95 lakh.

Profit before tax improved to ₹5.32 lakh from a loss of ₹12.75 lakh in Q1FY26. The company benefited from deferred tax credits of ₹0.66 lakh. Earnings per share (basic) were ₹1.44, compared to a loss of ₹3.03 per share in the prior year period.

Segment-wise Analysis

The yarn segment remained the primary revenue driver, contributing ₹192.53 lakh to total segment revenue, a significant increase from ₹162.20 lakh in Q1FY26. The fabric segment generated ₹76.03 lakh, while the garment segment contributed ₹38.65 lakh.

While the yarn and fabric segments posted positive results of ₹12.77 lakh and ₹5.18 lakh respectively, the garment segment incurred a loss of ₹2.77 lakh, widening from a loss of ₹5.79 lakh in Q1FY26 but still dragging down overall segment profitability. Total capital employed stood at ₹118.89 lakh, an increase from ₹110.74 lakh at the end of FY26.

What the Numbers Show

The return to profitability in Q1FY27 is largely attributable to the absence of the ₹5.98 lakh exceptional item recorded in Q4FY26 related to the implementation of the New Labour Codes. While operational profit before interest and tax improved significantly year-on-year, the current quarter's profit before tax (₹5.32 lakh) remains lower than the previous quarter (₹11.22 lakh), suggesting that seasonal or operational factors may still be influencing margins. The sustained growth in yarn revenue indicates stable demand in the core textile business, offsetting the continued losses in the garment division.
