Oxford Industries Limited approved a drastic 99% reduction in its paid-up share capital to offset accumulated business losses of ₹12,95,40,119 as of March 31, 2026. The Board of Directors also considered and approved the unaudited standalone financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, reporting a loss of ₹3.45 lakh. This capital restructuring aims to clean up the balance sheet by setting off losses against capital, leaving 59,360 fully paid-up equity shares of face value ₹10 each, aggregating to ₹5,93,600. Shareholders must approve this scheme at the ensuing Annual General Meeting (AGM). The move is critical for the company’s survival, aiming to restore net worth after years of operational deficits.
The Board meeting was held on August 8, 2026, at the company’s registered office in Mumbai. In compliance with Regulation 30 and Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, the company disclosed these outcomes to BSE Limited. The resolution for capital reduction is subject to shareholder approval and requires filing the scheme with the stock exchange under Regulation 37 of SEBI (LODR) Regulations, 2015, if necessary. The Board also deferred the proposal to shift the registered office from one state to another.
