What the board approved
- Unaudited standalone and consolidated financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2026.
- The Statement of Deviation or Variation in utilisation of funds raised, given as Annexure B.
- The results carry a Limited Review Report from Deloitte Haskins & Sells LLP, the statutory auditors.
Auditor's review conclusion
- The review was done under SRE 2410; a review is narrower than an audit and no audit opinion is expressed.
- Nothing came to the auditors' attention that causes them to believe the statement is not prepared under Ind AS 34 and the listing regulations, or that it contains any material misstatement.
- This is an unmodified conclusion, without any qualification.
Standalone numbers for the quarter
- 'Revenue from operations' was Rs. 28,831.02 lakh.
- 'Profit for the period' was Rs. 4,690.03 lakh.
Both are standalone figures, printed in lakh, for the quarter ended September 30, 2026.
Where the QIP money stands
- The company raised Rs. 738 crores through a Qualified Institutional Placement on July 05, 2024; CARE Ratings Limited is the monitoring agency.
- The statement says there is no deviation or variation in the use of the funds raised.
- For investment in subsidiary Cello Consumerware Private Limited to set up a new manufacturing facility, the original allocation was Rs. 105.25 crore and Rs. 103.74 crore has been utilised.
- The working capital allocation stands at Rs. 79.80 crore, after QIP issue expenses were revised to Rs. 24.20 crore; that adjustment was approved by the QIP Committee of the Board on July 9, 2024.
Scheme of arrangement
- The Composite Scheme of Arrangement among Wim Plast Limited, Cello Consumer Products Private Limited and the company was sanctioned by the NCLT, Ahmedabad Bench, and became effective from April 1, 2025.
- The company allotted 46,53,239 fully paid-up equity shares to the shareholders of Wim Plast Limited, with effect from June 09, 2026.
- Comparatives have been restated to give effect to the scheme from April 1, 2025, including the consequential impact on earnings per share.
- The company reports a single segment, 'Consumer Products'.
How a retail reader can use this
- The update is a routine quarterly outcome: results, a clean review conclusion, and a fund-utilisation statement showing no deviation from the stated objects.
- The fund-utilisation table lets you check progress object by object against the amounts originally allocated.
- The share allotment to Wim Plast shareholders explains the change in the company's equity share capital, which matters when reading per-share figures.
