Allied Blenders and Distillers (ABDL) has filed its Annual Report for FY 2024-25 along with the notice for its 17th AGM, scheduled for July 8, 2025, via video conferencing. FY25 was the company's first full year as a listed entity following its IPO in July 2024. Income from operations grew 6.2% to ₹3,541 crores, while the company posted record-high EBITDA of ₹451 crores (up 81.7%) and net profit of ₹195 crores, a sharp jump from just ₹2 crores in FY24. Gross margin expanded by 512 basis points to 42.1%, and ROCE improved to 22.6% from 16.7%. The Board has recommended a final dividend of 180% (₹3.6 per share). Key strategic moves included launching super-premium brands (Zoya Gin, Arthaus), acquiring Woodburns whisky, Pumori gin, and Segredo rum, partnering with Roust Corporation for Russian Standard Vodka, and committing ~₹525 crores towards backward integration projects including a new ENA distillery and India's first single malt distillery.
The strong FY25 results validate ABDL's post-IPO margin expansion strategy, supported by premiumisation, cost optimisation, and a healthier balance sheet (Net Debt/Equity down to 0.5x). The improved credit rating (IND A-) and committed capex pipeline signal confidence in sustained profitable growth, likely to be viewed positively by investors ahead of the AGM.
