The Board of Directors of Ahluwalia Contracts (India) Limited, meeting on May 30, 2025, recommended a final dividend of Rs. 0.60 per equity share (30% on face value of Rs. 2), subject to shareholder approval at the upcoming AGM. The Board also approved the audited standalone and consolidated financial results for Q4 and FY ended March 31, 2025, with the statutory auditors issuing an unmodified opinion. For FY25, standalone revenue from operations rose about 6.3% year-on-year to Rs. 4,098.62 crores, while net profit stood at Rs. 201.51 crores versus Rs. 375.55 crores in FY24. The sharp drop in reported profit is largely due to the absence of a one-time exceptional gain of Rs. 194.97 crores that boosted FY24 numbers. For Q4 FY25, revenue grew to Rs. 1,215.84 crores (from Rs. 1,163.66 crores in Q4 FY24), while quarterly net profit was Rs. 83.16 crores.
The final dividend of Rs. 0.60 per share is modestly higher than the previous year's payout, signalling continuity in returning cash to shareholders. Underlying operating performance remains steady, but the headline profit decline appears worse than it is because FY24 was inflated by an exceptional item, so investors should focus on revenue growth and normalised earnings rather than the year-on-year profit comparison.
