ABC India Limited's Board has recommended a dividend of 5% i.e., Rs. 0.50 per equity share (face value Rs. 10) for FY 2025-26. The company also reported standalone audited results: total income declined to Rs. 16,743.99 lakh from Rs. 18,666.15 lakh in the prior year. Profit before tax fell to Rs. 216.36 lakh vs. Rs. 308.17 lakh year-on-year. Net profit for the year stood at Rs. 230.82 lakh (EPS Rs. 4.28) compared to Rs. 246.93 lakh (EPS Rs. 4.56) in FY 2024-25. Revenue from operations dropped to Rs. 16,404.02 lakh from Rs. 18,495.29 lakh, reflecting a decline in both Freight & Services and Petrol Pump segments. The company operates in two segments and has a paid-up equity capital of Rs. 541.72 lakh (54,17,200 shares of Rs. 10 each).
The company is maintaining its dividend payout despite a decline in revenue and profitability this year, indicating commitment to returning value to shareholders. However, the year-on-year earnings contraction may weigh on investor sentiment.
