Shree Rajeshwaranand Paper Mills Limited confirmed the dispatch of notices for its 34th and 35th Annual General Meetings (AGMs), scheduled for September 26, 2026. The meetings will address financial results for FY25 and FY26 following the company's exit from the Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP).

The Gujarat-based paper manufacturer reported a net loss of ₹30.46 lakh for FY26, a significant improvement from the ₹7,237.38 lakh loss in FY25. This reduction was driven by the absence of exceptional items in FY26, unlike the prior year which saw ₹6,008.32 lakh in losses due to asset write-offs under the Resolution Plan.

Financial Performance and Balance Sheet Signals

The reduction in the net loss was largely driven by the absence of exceptional items in FY26. In the previous fiscal year, the company recognized exceptional losses of ₹6,008.32 lakh due to asset write-offs and liability adjustments required under the approved Resolution Plan. For FY26, total expenses amounted to ₹30.47 lakh, comprising employee benefits of ₹4.28 lakh and other expenses of ₹26.20 lakh.

The balance sheet reflects a debt-free position with zero borrowings as of March 31, 2026, compared to ₹28.51 lakh in short-term borrowings in the prior year. Total assets stood at ₹540.73 lakh, dominated by property, plant, and equipment valued at ₹538.71 lakh. Cash and cash equivalents declined to ₹0.13 lakh from ₹29.19 lakh in FY25.

What the Numbers Show

The company's equity structure underwent a drastic contraction during FY26 as part of the NCLT-approved Resolution Plan. Issued share capital fell from ₹1,245.00 lakh (12,450,000 shares) in FY25 to just ₹65.74 lakh (657,429 shares) in FY26. This capital reduction involved the cancellation of promoter shares and a consolidation ratio of 6:100 for public shareholders, resulting in a transfer of ₹11,792.57 lakh to the capital reserve account. Despite this restructuring, total equity remained negative at ₹-3,635.80 lakh due to accumulated past losses.

Corporate Governance and Regulatory Updates

The Hon'ble National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT), Ahmedabad Bench, granted the company an extension until September 27, 2026, to convene the AGMs for both FY24-25 and FY25-26. This extension acknowledges the procedural delays associated with implementing the Resolution Plan and modifying the shareholding structure.

Key agenda items for the upcoming AGM include:

• Adoption of the audited financial statements for FY26.
• Re-appointment of Mr. Pratik Ramjibhai Kakadia as a director upon retirement by rotation.
• Appointment of M/s. H. L. Saini & Co., Chartered Accountants, as statutory auditors to fill the casual vacancy left by M/s. K P J & Co.

Trading in the company's shares remains suspended on the BSE pending final approval for the new ISIN and trading permissions under the reduced capital structure. The management has filed the necessary applications for revocation of suspension and expects to resume operations in a phased manner once regulatory clearances are obtained.

E-Voting and Meeting Details

The 34th AGM will be held on September 26, 2026, at 11:00 am via Video Conferencing (VC)/Other Audio Visual Means (OAVM). The 35th AGM will follow at 12:00 noon on the same day through VC/OAVM. The company dispatched the Annual Reports along with the notices electronically on September 5, 2026.

Shree Rajeshwaranand Paper Mills Limited appointed M/s. H. L. Saini & Co. as its statutory auditor following the resignation of K P J & Co. The change, effective September 1, 2026, addresses a casual vacancy in the auditor’s office.

The Board of Directors approved the appointment during its meeting held on September 1, 2026. The new firm will hold office until the conclusion of the ensuing Annual General Meeting (AGM). Shareholders are expected to regularize this appointment at the AGM for FY27.
