FACT Clarifies Financial Results Format Due to Joint Venture Losses

The announcement is a clarification of existing financial reporting and accounting treatment for a joint venture, which is unlikely to have a significant impact on the company's stock price or overall business operations.
The announcement is a clarification of accounting treatment for a joint venture and does not present new financial performance data or significant corporate actions that would positively or negatively impact the company's outlook.
Fertilizers and Chemicals Travancore Limited (FACT) has provided clarification regarding its financial results submitted on January 28, 2026, in response to an email from the National Stock Exchange of India Ltd. dated February 4, 2026. The clarification addresses the format of the financial results, noting that the standalone and consolidated figures were identical.
FACT explained that this uniformity is due to the treatment of its investment in the joint venture, FACT-RCF Building Products Limited (FRBL). Due to continuous losses incurred by FRBL, FACT has fully provided for the value of its investment in the joint venture as per paragraph 38 of Ind AS 28 - Investment in Associates and Joint Ventures. This accounting standard dictates that if an entity's share of losses equals or exceeds its investment, further losses are not recognized beyond the carrying amount, unless legal or constructive obligations exist.
Consequently, as FACT's share of losses in the joint venture has exceeded its investment value, the company is not recognizing further losses from the joint venture in its standalone and consolidated financial statements. The details pertaining to this accounting treatment are furnished in note no. 5 of the consolidated results.
