The full read
Suryalakshmi Cotton Mills has filed its FY26 results. They were pre-announced and the audit is clean. The board skipped the dividend. It also waived the preference-share dividend, extended the redemption of cumulative preference shares, and paid back ₹2 crore of non-cumulative preference stock. A few directors rotated off due to term expiry. There is no new revenue, margin, or order data in this filing. It is procedural confirmation of numbers the market already had. The ₹2 crore redemption is the only cash movement, and it is minor for a nano-cap.
