Shyam Century Ferrous Limited has announced its unaudited financial results for the third quarter ended 31st December 2025, revealing a substantial deterioration in financial performance following the closure of its manufacturing operations. The ferro silicon manufacturer reported a net loss of ₹613.83 lakhs for Q3FY26, marking a significant decline from the net profit of ₹6.33 lakhs recorded in the corresponding quarter of the previous fiscal year.

Financial Performance Overview

The company's financial metrics demonstrate the severe impact of operational cessation on its business performance:

Revenue from operations plummeted by 97.44% year-on-year to ₹83.69 lakhs in Q3FY26 from ₹3,267.07 lakhs in Q3FY25. Total income decreased by 92.29% to ₹264.72 lakhs compared to ₹3,431.26 lakhs in the previous year quarter.

Nine-Month Performance Analysis

For the nine months ended 31st December 2025, the company's performance reflected the operational challenges:

The nine-month period showed revenue from operations declining by 75.53% to ₹2,225.78 lakhs from ₹9,097.57 lakhs in the corresponding period last year. Net loss widened significantly to ₹937.05 lakhs compared to ₹493.30 lakhs in 9M FY25.

Operational Cessation and Strategic Decision

The company ceased operations at its plant located at EPIP, Rajabagan, Byrnihat, District-Ri-Bhoi, Meghalaya from 7th May 2025 due to a significant increase in power tariffs that rendered operations economically unviable. This operational shutdown has been the primary driver behind the dramatic decline in financial performance.

In response to these challenges, the Board of Directors in their meeting held on 7th January 2026 unanimously accorded in-principle approval for the sale, lease, or disposal of substantially all company assets. This includes:

• Plant and Machinery
• Furniture and Fixtures
• Tools and Equipment
• Electrical Installations
• Manufacturing Rights and Approvals

The proposed asset disposal remains subject to shareholder approval, and the assets continue to be recognized under Property, Plant and Equipment rather than being classified as held for sale.

Expense Structure and Cost Management

Despite the operational closure, the company incurred total expenses of ₹1,185.01 lakhs in Q3FY26 compared to ₹3,430.79 lakhs in Q3FY25. Notable expense components included power and fuel expenses of ₹752.36 lakhs, depreciation of ₹122.30 lakhs, and employee benefit expenses of ₹27.46 lakhs. The company maintained its paid-up equity share capital at ₹2,121.73 lakhs with a face value of ₹1 per share.

The financial results were approved by the Board of Directors on 6th February 2026 following recommendation by the Audit Committee, with statutory auditors completing the limited review as required under SEBI regulations.
