Tecil Chemicals & Hydro Power

What Tecil Chemicals & Hydro Power does

Tecil Chemicals and Hydro Power Limited is a publicly listed Indian company (CIN: L24299KL1945PLC001206) incorporated on April 4, 1945 in Kerala under the name "The Travancore Electro-Chemical Industries Limited," which was changed to its present name on December 28, 1994. Historically, the company was engaged in the manufacture of Electro-Chemical and Electro Thermal furnace products and their by-products, with a stated customer base of industrial chemical buyers in India and a horizontal segmentation across industrial applications. Its core technology is described as electro-chemical and electro-thermal furnace production processes, though no proprietary features, patents, certifications, or product launches are documented in the available data.

Following a Share Purchase Agreement signed on March 10, 2017 with Mr. Varghese Kurian, the company underwent a complete change in management: Varghese Kurian became Managing Director on September 1, 2017, accompanied by Lizhyamma Kurian and Shaji Mathew Kalladayil as Whole-Time Directors, with Jeeben Varghese Kurian subsequently appointed Executive Director cum CEO on September 14, 2018, indicating concentrated Kurian-family control. Trading in the shares was suspended at the time of acquisition and was only relisted on both BSE and NSE on March 29, 2023. The company has no disclosed pricing model, no active distribution channels beyond its stock-exchange listing, and no identifiable end customers in current filings.

Operationally, Tecil Chemicals is effectively dormant. Revenue from operations has collapsed to ₹0.01 lakh for FY26, with zero sales recorded in both Q4 FY26 and Q4 FY25. The company reported a net loss of ₹38.74 lakh (₹0.42 crore) for FY26, slightly wider than the ₹0.39 crore loss in the prior year, against total assets of just ₹433.00 lakh (~$52K USD). Activities appear limited to statutory compliance, investor relations disclosures, and corporate governance filings as a BSE/NSE-listed entity rather than active commercial manufacturing.
