The call will be conducted via Zoom, with participation details provided in the accompanying investor presentation.

Regulatory Compliance

The postponement was communicated to the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and the Calcutta Stock Exchange (CSE) under the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. The intimation was signed by Ketan Moolchand Shah, Whole-Time Director, confirming the revised date for record purposes.

Simplex Castings Limited reported a net profit of ₹685.8 lakh for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, marking a 44% increase from ₹473.75 lakh in the same period of the previous year. Revenue from operations rose 35% year-on-year to ₹6,094.69 lakh, up from ₹4,519.73 lakh in Q1FY26.

The quarterly results reflect improved operational performance alongside higher top-line growth. Profit before tax stood at ₹916.46 lakh, compared to ₹633.08 lakh a year ago. The company also reported a profit before exceptional items and tax of ₹916.46 lakh, indicating that the current quarter’s earnings were driven purely by core operations without any one-off gains, unlike the prior year’s fourth quarter which included exceptional items of ₹85.90 lakh.

Financial Highlights

The weighted average number of equity shares increased to 4,09,96,235 from 3,53,71,820 in the previous year due to the sub-division of shares from a face value of ₹10 to ₹2 each, approved in May 2026. Consequently, basic and diluted EPS were adjusted retrospectively.

What the Numbers Show

While revenue grew significantly, other income declined sharply to ₹5.36 lakh in Q1FY27 from ₹42.89 lakh in Q4FY26. This drop in non-operating income was more than offset by a reduction in cost of raw materials consumed relative to revenue. Raw material costs stood at ₹2,994.20 lakh against revenue of ₹6,094.69 lakh, suggesting improved input cost management or favorable product mix compared to the previous quarter where raw material costs were ₹4,982.99 lakh against lower revenue of ₹5,476.28 lakh.
