Oriental Rail's MD Karim N Mithiborwala resigned on health grounds. Chairman and CFO Saleh N Mithiborwala takes over as MD. His son Tahaa joins as Whole-Time Director, bringing third-generation promoter family onto board. Mrs. Sheetal Nagda re-appointed as Independent Director. Q1 FY27 consolidated net profit rose to Rs 10.75 crore from Rs 5.87 crore YoY on Rs 139.07 crore revenue. Final dividend Rs 0.10 per share, record date Sep 1. Order book Rs 1,691.91 crore.
MD exit on health is concerning, but transition to existing Chairman ensures continuity. Strong Q1 profit growth and healthy Rs 1,691 crore order book are positives.
