BirlaNu Limited (formerly HIL Limited) reported a standalone net loss of Rs 1,404 lakhs for FY2026 versus a profit of Rs 5,359 lakhs in FY2025. Revenue from operations grew marginally by 1.5% to Rs 242,653 lakhs from Rs 238,958 lakhs. The company recorded net exceptional items of Rs -3,479 lakhs, primarily due to a Rs 7,420 lakh provision for diminution in value of its investment in subsidiary BirlaNu International GmbH, partly offset by a Rs 3,941 lakh gain on sale of assets. The company completed a Scheme of Amalgamation effective March 2026, merging five subsidiaries with retrospective effect from April 2024. It also acquired Clean Coats Private Limited in November 2025 for Rs 11,322 lakhs. The Board recommended a final dividend of Rs 15 per share (150%). Statutory auditors BSR and Co issued an unmodified opinion with an Emphasis of Matter regarding the amalgamation. Cash generated from operations improved significantly to Rs 14,385 lakhs from Rs 4,797 lakhs.
The company swung from profit to loss in FY2026 due to a large write-down of subsidiary investment value. However, underlying revenue growth is modest and operating cash flow improved. The dividend recommendation provides some investor comfort despite the losses. The restatement of prior period numbers due to amalgamation may require investors to compare carefully.
