Hariom Pipe Industries Limited resumes Tamil Nadu unit July 13

Hariom Pipe Industries Limited resumed operations at its Perundurai manufacturing unit on July 13, 2026, after the Tamil Nadu Pollution Control Board suspended its earlier closure directions and restored power supply. Hariom Pipe Industries said the April 2026 suspension had affected company-wide revenue and profitability in the quarter ended June 30, 2026.

Why did Hariom Pipe Industries' Tamil Nadu unit stop operating?

Hariom Pipe Industries' Perundurai unit was temporarily suspended following directions issued by the Tamil Nadu Pollution Control Board, or TNPCB, in April 2026. The manufacturing facility is located at the SIPCOT Industrial Growth Centre in Perundurai, Erode District, Tamil Nadu, according to the notes to the standalone results for the half year ended September 30, 2026.

Hariom Pipe Industries did not disclose the specific grounds for the TNPCB directions in its November 4, 2026 filing. It said the temporary suspension affected revenue and profitability in the quarter ended June 30, 2026, but did not disclose lost production, lost sales, additional costs or the unit's separate profit contribution.

Hariom Pipe Industries reports manufacturing and selling steel products as its sole operating segment under Indian Accounting Standard 108, or Ind AS 108. As a result, the filing provides no separate segment figures for the Perundurai plant, and the June-quarter impact cannot be quantified from the disclosed standalone results.

When did Hariom Pipe Industries restart the Perundurai unit?

Hariom Pipe Industries recommenced operations at the Perundurai unit on July 13, 2026, after TNPCB proceedings dated July 13 suspended the earlier closure directions. TNPCB restored the facility's power supply, which Hariom Pipe Industries identified as enabling the restart.

The reopening took place in the quarter ended September 30, 2026, after the company had identified the preceding quarter ended June 30, 2026 as affected by the suspension. The filing does not say whether TNPCB's suspension of the closure directions carries conditions or whether any further regulatory proceeding remains outstanding.

Hariom Pipe Industries' board approved the standalone unaudited results for the quarter and half year ended September 30, 2026 on November 4, 2026. Its statutory auditor issued an unmodified limited-review conclusion, stating that nothing had come to its attention to indicate a material misstatement in the results.

How did Hariom Pipe Industries' results change after the restart?

Hariom Pipe Industries reported standalone revenue from operations of Rs 554.24 crore for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, compared with Rs 429.183 crore in the June 2026 quarter and Rs 335.8674 crore in the September 2025 quarter. The filing does not attribute the increase solely to the Perundurai restart.

Standalone net profit was Rs 28.5233 crore in the September 2026 quarter, up from Rs 17.3636 crore in the preceding quarter and Rs 10.4156 crore a year earlier. Profit before tax rose to Rs 37.9472 crore from Rs 23.1722 crore in June 2026 and Rs 14.2915 crore in September 2025.

For the half year ended September 30, 2026, Hariom Pipe Industries recorded revenue from operations of Rs 983.423 crore, against Rs 796.8315 crore in the corresponding 2025 period. Half-year net profit was Rs 45.8869 crore, compared with Rs 34.0296 crore a year earlier, while the company separately disclosed the June-quarter operational disruption.

Costs also changed between the June and September 2026 quarters. Material consumption rose to Rs 453.6428 crore from Rs 253.3615 crore, power and fuel expense increased to Rs 25.4326 crore from Rs 18.4109 crore, and finance costs were Rs 16.9917 crore against Rs 13.4202 crore.

What funding did Hariom Pipe Industries arrange in July 2026?

Hariom Pipe Industries allotted 15 lakh convertible warrants on a preferential basis on July 27, 2026, at an issue price of Rs 343.03 per warrant. Each warrant is convertible into one fully paid-up equity share with a face value of Rs 10, creating the potential for 15 lakh equity shares if all conversion options are exercised.

The warrants have an aggregate issue value of Rs 51.4545 crore, of which Hariom Pipe Industries received Rs 12.8636 crore at allotment, representing 25% of the consideration. Warrant holders must pay the remaining 75% upon conversion, which may occur within 18 months of July 27, 2026, or on or before January 27, 2028.

Hariom Pipe Industries reported Rs 23.01 lakh in cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2026, compared with Rs 5.5402 crore at September 30, 2025. Non-current borrowings were Rs 143.0042 crore and current borrowings were Rs 295.4355 crore; the filing does not link these balances to the Perundurai restart or the warrant allotment.

What other operating development did Hariom Pipe Industries disclose?

Hariom Pipe Industries disclosed that its subsidiary, Hariom Power and Energy Private Limited, commissioned a 5 megawatt alternating-current, or MW (AC), solar power plant in Maharashtra during the September 2026 quarter. The announcement does not state the plant's cost, expected generation, ownership funding or captive-consumption arrangements.

The 5 MW (AC) plant was disclosed alongside September-quarter standalone power and fuel expenditure of Rs 25.4326 crore, compared with Rs 18.4109 crore in the June 2026 quarter. Hariom Pipe Industries did not provide an estimate of whether, or when, the Maharashtra project could affect its energy costs.

Hariom Power and Energy Private Limited is included among the subsidiaries reviewed in the consolidated results, while Hariom Pipe Industries' standalone accounts cover the parent company. The operational restart disclosure, the warrant allotment and the solar-plant commissioning were all included in the November 4, 2026 results announcement.

Conclusion

Hariom Pipe Industries ended the disclosed Perundurai interruption on July 13, 2026 when TNPCB suspended its earlier closure directions and power was restored. The company said the closure had hurt June-quarter revenue and profitability, while its following quarter recorded standalone revenue of Rs 554.24 crore and net profit of Rs 28.5233 crore.

The next disclosed deadline is January 27, 2028, when the 15 lakh warrants allotted in July 2026 must be exercised if holders choose to convert them. Investors can also watch for any further TNPCB disclosure on the Perundurai unit and for details on the operating contribution of the 5 MW (AC) Maharashtra solar plant, neither of which was quantified in the filing.
