HMT Limited to Review Q2 FY27 Results on November 6, 2026

HMT Limited is scheduled to consider its unaudited standalone and consolidated Q2 FY27 results on November 6, 2026, after reporting FY26 revenue from operations of ₹142.65 crore and a group loss of ₹131.54 crore from continuing business.

When will HMT Limited announce its Q2 FY27 results?

HMT Limited has said its Board of Directors will meet on November 6, 2026, to review and approve unaudited standalone and consolidated financial results for the quarter and half-year ended September 30, 2026. The meeting falls during the broader September-quarter earnings season, when several listed Indian companies are scheduled to report their financial performance.

The company has also closed its insider-trading window ahead of the results. This restricts trading by insiders and designated persons during the prescribed period before the financial disclosures. The board meeting notice did not provide earnings guidance, a strategic outlook, or any financial forecast for the September quarter.

What recent management and audit developments has HMT reported?

HMT recently reported the resignation of its chief financial officer, effective October 30, 2026. The company is yet to disclose a successor in the material provided, making the CFO appointment a near-term governance development alongside the September-quarter results.

The company appointed G R S M & Associates, Chartered Accountants, Bengaluru, as statutory auditors for FY27. HMT also disclosed appointments of statutory and branch auditors in line with directives of the Comptroller and Auditor General of India. Earlier reporting attributed a delay in financial reporting to the consolidation of accounts and audit processes across HMT's units in India.

What do HMT Limited's recent financial figures show?

HMT's disclosed quarterly figures show continued operating losses, although the net loss in the June 2026 quarter was lower than the loss in the September 2025 quarter. Revenue was ₹29 crore in June 2026, compared with ₹25 crore in June 2025 and ₹26 crore in September 2025. Revenue had risen to ₹71 crore in March 2026 before declining in the following quarter.

Operating profit was negative ₹25 crore in June 2026, compared with negative ₹39 crore in September 2025. Net loss stood at ₹29 crore in June 2026, versus a net loss of ₹39 crore in September 2025. Earnings per share for the June 2026 quarter was negative ₹0.82, while the operating margin was negative 86.0%.

For FY26, HMT's annual-report information states that revenue from operations was ₹142.65 crore, compared with ₹142.31 crore in the preceding year. Profit before tax was ₹18.38 crore, against ₹18.94 crore a year earlier. HMT Group reported a loss of ₹131.54 crore from continuing business, compared with a loss of ₹143.05 crore in the prior year.

How do HMT Limited's operations and ownership shape the result context?

HMT's reported business portfolio includes food-processing machines. Its food-processing unit recorded production of ₹9.31 crore in FY26, down from ₹12.58 crore in the preceding year. Sales from the unit fell to ₹8.92 crore from ₹11.34 crore, with the company attributing the decline of around 21% to product mix and a competitive market.

The ownership structure remains concentrated. The President of India holds 78.62% of HMT, while the Special National Investment Fund holds 18.99%. This leaves a relatively small shareholding outside these two holders and makes official disclosures, audit developments and board decisions particularly relevant for minority investors tracking the company.

Conclusion

HMT's November 6 board meeting will provide the next formal update on its standalone and consolidated performance for Q2 FY27. The available financial record shows uneven revenue movement and continuing quarterly losses, while FY26 revenue from operations was broadly stable and the group loss from continuing business narrowed from the previous year.

Investors will watch the September-quarter revenue, operating loss, net loss and cash-related disclosures when results are released. Other disclosed matters to monitor are the appointment of a new CFO after the October 30 resignation and any update on account consolidation, audit processes or operational plans that the company provides with its results.
