Bata India Limited reported FY2026 standalone net profit of Rs. 1,135.59 million (vs. Rs. 3,284.49 million in FY2025), reflecting a significant decline primarily due to an exceptional charge of Rs. 430.66 million for VRS and Rs. 66.66 million for labour code adjustments. Consolidated net profit stood at Rs. 1,344.08 million. The Board recommended a final dividend of Rs. 9 per share (180% on a Rs. 5 face value), unchanged from the previous year, subject to shareholder approval at the AGM on August 12, 2026. The record date for dividend eligibility is July 31, 2026, with payment starting August 27, 2026. Total income for FY2026 was Rs. 35,930.40 million (standalone), marginally up from Rs. 35,550.26 million in the prior year.
The dividend payout is maintained at Rs. 9 per share despite sharply lower profits, signaling management confidence. However, the profit decline may weigh on the stock in the near term, though the dividend provides support to shareholder returns.
