Bharti Airtel's Board has recommended a final dividend of Rs. 24 per fully paid-up equity share (face value Rs. 5) and Rs. 6 per partly paid-up share for FY 2025-26, subject to shareholder approval at the AGM. The full-year consolidated revenue grew 22% to Rs. 2.11 lakh crore, though profit after tax declined to Rs. 33,823 crore from Rs. 37,481 crore in the prior year, impacted by a Rs. 31,607 million regulatory charge. The company also completed a Rs. 1,56,960 million call money receipt on partly paid-up shares from its 2021 rights issue during Q4. Basic EPS for the year stood at Rs. 45.96 versus Rs. 58.00 in the previous year.
The consistent dividend declaration signals financial stability despite lower profitability this year. Shareholders can expect income flow pending AGM approval, with the actual record date to be announced separately.
