HMT Limited Files for Striking Off Subsidiary HMT Watches Limited
HMT Limited has filed an application to strike off its wholly-owned subsidiary, HMT Watches Limited, from the Registrar of Companies. This action follows the CCEA's approval on January 6, 2016, for the closure of three subsidiaries. The application was filed on January 5, 2026.
The striking off of a subsidiary is a corporate restructuring activity that has already been decided upon and approved. The immediate financial or operational impact on the parent company is likely to be minimal.
The announcement is a procedural step related to a prior decision to close a subsidiary. It does not indicate a significant positive or negative development for the parent company's current operations.
HMT Limited announced that it has filed an application with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, Government of India, for striking off the name of its wholly-owned subsidiary, HMT Watches Limited, from the records of the Registrar of Companies. This action is taken under Section 248 of the Companies Act, 2013.
This development is in furtherance of the approval granted by the Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs (CCEA) on January 6, 2016, for the closure of three subsidiary companies of HMT Limited: HMT Watches Limited, HMT Bearings Limited, and HMT Chinar Watches Limited.
The company has completed the requisite formalities for this process. The filing was made on January 5, 2026.
