Shyam Century Ferrous Limited reported a net loss of ₹80.95 lakh for the first quarter ended June 30, 2026 (Q1FY26), a significant improvement from the ₹402.80 lakh loss recorded in the same period last year. The company, which ceased its core ferro silicon manufacturing operations in May 2025, continues to operate as a going concern sustained by interest income from its investment portfolio. Shareholders are advised that the Register of Members and Share Transfer Books will remain closed from September 19, 2026, to September 25, 2026, ahead of the 15th Annual General Meeting (AGM) scheduled for September 25, 2026.
The unaudited standalone financial results were reviewed by the Audit Committee and approved by the Board of Directors on August 6, 2026, pursuant to Regulation 33 and Regulation 47 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. The Statutory Auditors have completed the audit of these results. The company’s management confirmed that despite the operating losses, sufficient liquid assets exist to meet liabilities, and there is no intention to liquidate the entity.
