Basant Agro Tech reported FY25 revenue from operations of Rs 40,475 lacs, down about 12.5% from Rs 46,274 lacs in FY24, dragged down by weaker performance in the Fertiliser and Seeds segments. Profit before tax fell to Rs 491.88 lacs from Rs 706.20 lacs, and net profit slipped marginally to Rs 395.72 lacs (EPS Rs 0.43) versus Rs 416.60 lacs (EPS Rs 0.46) a year ago. Q4 FY25 showed a sharp YoY rebound in revenue to Rs 13,252 lacs (up ~33% from Rs 9,930 lacs), but net profit collapsed to Rs 115 lacs versus Rs 674 lacs due to higher tax adjustments. The board declared a 5% dividend, appointed new auditors for FY26, and operating cash flow turned strongly positive at Rs 4,389 lacs against a negative Rs 1,277 lacs last year, supported by lower borrowings (down to Rs 12,768 lacs from Rs 15,368 lacs).
Mixed picture for shareholders: full-year revenue and profits declined while Q4 revenue spiked, and a 5% dividend plus strong operating cash flow and debt reduction are positives, but margin compression and the sharp Q4 PAT drop despite higher sales may weigh on sentiment.
