Aarti Surfactants Board met on May 9, 2026 and approved FY2026 results along with recommending a final dividend of Rs. 1 per share (10% on face value of Rs. 10). The dividend is subject to shareholder approval at the upcoming AGM. For FY2026, standalone revenue grew 30% to Rs. 85,913 Lakhs from Rs. 65,909 Lakhs, but net profit declined 15% to Rs. 1,268 Lakhs from Rs. 1,499 Lakhs. EPS dropped to Rs. 14.99 from Rs. 17.72 in the previous year. The company has one wholly-owned subsidiary Aarti HPC Limited. Statutory auditors issued unmodified opinion on the financial statements. The Board also reappointed Cost Auditor PHS & Associates and Internal Auditor Raman S. Shah & Co. for FY2026-27, and reconstituted the Finance and Investment Committee.
The modest Rs. 1 dividend despite profit decline suggests cautious capital management. Investors should note the 15% drop in net profit and lower EPS, though revenue growth remains strong at 30%. The dividend yield appears low given current price levels.
