Bajaj Healthcare's Board has recommended a final dividend of Rs. 1.50 per share (30% on Rs. 5 face value) for FY 2025-26, subject to shareholder approval at the AGM. For FY 2025-26, the company reported total income of Rs. 618.17 crore, though profit after tax from continuing operations dropped significantly to Rs. 21.31 crore compared to Rs. 42.93 crore in FY 2024-25. The decline was primarily due to a Rs. 33.25 crore exceptional item reversal related to a technical know-how arrangement affected by Middle East instability. The company also completed conversion of 20.79 lakh convertible warrants into equity shares at Rs. 338 per share during the year.
The dividend recommendation is positive for shareholders but the substantial profit decline may raise concerns. The recommended dividend appears modest relative to the profit drop, which could signal a cautious approach or potential dividend cut compared to prior years.
