Awaiting price reaction for this filing.
Bajaj Consumer Care Limited has submitted copies of newspaper publications (Financial Express, Jansatta, and Dainik Navjyoti) dated May 7, 2025, containing extracts of its consolidated audited financial results for Q4 FY25 and the year ended March 31, 2025, as required under SEBI LODR Regulations 30 and 47. For Q4 FY25 (consolidated), total income from operations stood at ₹23,441.67 lakhs versus ₹23,996.05 lakhs in Q4 FY24, while net profit after tax fell to ₹3,111.37 lakhs from ₹3,558.46 lakhs. For the full year FY25, consolidated net profit declined to ₹12,526.25 lakhs from ₹15,543.35 lakhs in FY24, with diluted EPS dropping to ₹9.03 from ₹10.89. Standalone FY25 net profit similarly fell to ₹13,013.87 lakhs from ₹15,876.63 lakhs. A notable disclosure: the company acquired a 49% stake (Tranche 1) in Vishal Personal Care Ltd on March 10, 2025, for ₹5,951.58 lakhs, making it an associate, with plans to acquire 100% in two tranches.
This is a routine regulatory newspaper publication filing, not a new event. However, the underlying numbers reveal a year-on-year decline in both revenue and profitability for FY25, which could weigh on investor sentiment. The Vishal Personal Care acquisition signals a diversification move into adjacent personal care categories.
