Arihant Capital Markets has submitted its Integrated Annual Report for FY2024-25 to the stock exchanges. Total income rose modestly to ₹248.01 crore from ₹235.61 crore, a 5.3% increase. However, profit after tax declined to about ₹58.7 crore from ₹70.5 crore in FY24, as the company chose to invest heavily in technology upgrades and growth. The 33rd AGM is scheduled for September 27, 2025 via video conferencing. The Board has recommended a dividend of ₹0.50 per share (50%) on a face value of ₹1. Special business includes the appointment of Ms. Swati Jain, daughter of Chairman Mr. Ashok Kumar Jain, as Chief Strategy Officer, and appointment of a new secretarial auditor for FY2025-26 to FY2029-30.
Shareholders should note the PAT decline despite revenue growth, reflecting heavy reinvestment. The proposed appointment of a promoter's family member as Chief Strategy Officer is a related-party transaction requiring member approval, which investors may evaluate carefully.
