ORIENT ABRASIVES LTD.-$

Orient Ceratech Ltd announced its unaudited standalone and consolidated financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026. The company's Board of Directors approved these results, along with the Limited Review Report from statutory auditors M/s. Sanghavi & Company. The financial results detail revenue from operations, other income, expenses, and profit before and after tax for both standalone and consolidated figures. The meeting commenced at 4:30 pm and concluded at 5:25 pm on August 6, 2026. Investor complaints for the quarter were nil.

Orient Ceratech (formerly Orient Abrasives) reported consolidated Profit for the period of ₹8.57 Cr in Q1 FY27, up 99.2% YoY from ₹4.30 Cr and up 51.4% QoQ from ₹5.66 Cr, on continuing-operations revenue of ₹100.65 Cr (+4.6% YoY, +3.7% QoQ). The reported PAT absorbed a ₹5.16 Cr exceptional loss on disposal within discontinued operations, which posted a net loss of ₹1.99 Cr for the quarter (versus a ₹0.49 Cr profit a year ago) as the company exited its Power Division — the Thermal Power Station sale agreement was signed and windmills were sold (~₹15-16 Cr each, across two tranches in June and July 2026) during and just after the quarter. Stripped of this wind-down drag, continuing-operations (core ceramics) net profit was ₹10.56 Cr, up 176.7% YoY from ₹3.82 Cr — the cleaner read of underlying business momentum now that the company operates a single reportable segment, "Manufacturing & Trading of Ceramic and related products" (Note 5). The margin improvement on continuing operations was pronounced: PBT margin on total income rose to 13.1% from 4.9% a year ago, driven mainly by a sharp drop in purchases of stock-in-trade (₹203 Cr equivalent vs ₹769 lacs a year ago, i.e. ₹2.03 Cr vs ₹7.69 Cr) alongside a larger inventory build — consistent with a shift toward more in-house manufacturing and less trading — partly offset by higher power & fuel costs (+27.9% YoY) and other expenses (+37.2% YoY). Standalone PAT of ₹5.91 Cr trailed consolidated by ₹2.66 Cr, with the gap explained by subsidiary contributions (the UAE FZE subsidiary alone added ₹0.35 Cr net profit this quarter per the auditor's note) plus intercompany revenue elimination on consolidation. There is no formal management guidance on record for this company, and no analyst/street consensus estimates were found for this quarter — both are consistent with its small-cap, thinly-covered profile. Management's own framing (via the exchange filing) centres on the Power Division exit and segment simplification rather than a growth narrative; the numbers bear this out, with the noisy divestment-related items now largely behind the company entering Q2 FY27.

Orient Ceratech Ltd has announced that its Board of Directors will convene on August 6, 2026. The primary agenda for this meeting is to consider and approve the unaudited standalone and consolidated financial results for the first quarter ended June 30, 2026. The meeting will also address any incidental matters related to these financial results. This announcement is made in compliance with SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015.

Orient Ceratech Ltd has executed an Agreement for Sale for its Windmills Business, comprising seven windmills. The transaction, conducted as a slump sale on a going concern basis, will transfer all associated assets and liabilities to the purchaser effective June 30, 2026. Following negotiations, the total consideration for the sale has been revised upwards to ₹16.45 Crore. This divestment marks a strategic move for the company.

Orient Ceratech Ltd has announced the closure of its trading window for all designated persons. This closure is effective from July 1, 2026, and will remain in effect for 48 hours after the declaration of the un-audited financial results for the quarter ending June 30, 2026. This measure is in compliance with SEBI (Prohibition of Insider Trading) Regulations, 2015, and the company's internal code of conduct. The specific date for the board meeting to consider these financial results will be communicated later.

Orient Ceratech Ltd has approved the sale of its Windmills (Power Division) for ₹15.25 crore.

The division contributed 1.55% to the total turnover and 7.45% to the net worth in the last financial year. The buyer, Greenwin Energy Thirteen LLP, is not related to the promoter group.
