Allied Blenders and Distillers (ABDL) reported its audited results for Q4 and FY25, with consolidated revenue from operations growing about 5% YoY to Rs. 8,073 crore. Consolidated net profit surged to Rs. 194.8 crore for FY25 compared to Rs. 1.8 crore in FY24 (the prior year was impacted by a one-time deferred tax reversal). The Board recommended a final dividend of Rs. 3.60 per share (face value Rs. 2) for FY25, subject to shareholder approval, with a record date of June 27, 2025 and AGM scheduled for July 8, 2025. The Board also approved a proposal to raise up to Rs. 1,000 crore through equity shares or other securities via QIP/preferential allotment/public offerings, subject to shareholder approval. Additionally, the company plans a Rs. 29 crore capex to triple bottling capacity at its Derabassi (Punjab) plant from 1 lakh to 3 lakh cases per month within 12 months, funded through borrowings and internal accruals.
The strong profit growth reflects a favourable base effect and improved operating performance, which is positive for shareholders. The proposed Rs. 1,000 crore fund raise could lead to equity dilution, while the Rs. 29 crore capacity expansion signals confidence in future demand. The Rs. 3.60 dividend represents a healthy payout on a Rs. 2 face value, though yield on market price would need verification.
