Oswal Overseas Limited reported a widened net loss of ₹916.99 lakh for the financial year ended March 31, 2026, as revenue from operations declined sharply to ₹400.94 lakh from ₹6762.63 lakh in the previous year. The company's Board of Directors approved the standalone audited financial results for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2026, at a meeting held on May 30, 2026. The financial performance reflects significant operational challenges, with the Sugar Division and Power Division both reporting losses before tax and finance costs.
The statutory auditors, DSRV AND COMPANY LLP, issued a qualified opinion on the financial statements, drawing attention to the company's negative net worth of ₹955.58 lakh and cash losses of ₹504.39 lakh for the current year and ₹829.36 lakh in the immediately preceding year. The auditors noted that these conditions, along with a working capital deficiency where current liabilities of ₹7058.66 lakh far exceed current assets of ₹619.77 lakh, indicate a material uncertainty that casts significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern. The auditors highlighted that no production has taken place and there are no fresh borrowings or additions to fixed assets.

The Power Division recorded a revenue of ₹21.45 lakh and a loss of ₹81.59 lakh. The company noted that the sugar industry is seasonal, with crushing typically occurring between November and April, which contributes to quarterly performance variations.
