BSL Limited announced audited financial results for Q4 and FY ended 31st March 2025 with an unmodified (clean) audit opinion from SSMS & Associates. Revenue from operations for FY25 was nearly flat at Rs. 667.06 crore vs Rs. 666.45 crore last year, but profit after tax fell sharply to Rs. 8.16 crore from Rs. 11.23 crore, a decline of about 27%. Q4 was weak with PAT crashing to Rs. 0.28 crore from Rs. 2.52 crore a year ago. The Board recommended a dividend of Rs. 0.80 per share (8%) for FY25, subject to shareholder approval. The company also re-appointed its Internal Auditor and Cost Auditor for FY26, and appointed V.M. & Associates as Secretarial Auditor for a 5-year term.
Shareholders get a modest dividend despite weaker profits. The sharp drop in profitability, rising inventory levels, and very high debt-to-equity ratio of roughly 3.5x are red flags that may weigh on the stock. However, operating cash flow turned strongly positive (Rs. 57 crore vs negative Rs. 39.5 crore last year), which is a positive sign for near-term liquidity.
