CARE Ratings Limited's Board meeting on May 13, 2026 approved grant of 55,000 stock options to eligible employees under the CARE Employee Stock Option Scheme 2020. The exercise price is Rs. 1,590 per option. Vesting occurs in three tranches (1/3rd each year) over three years, with a 2-year exercise period from each vesting date. The company also reported strong FY26 results with consolidated revenue of Rs. 47,307 lakhs (up 17.6% YoY) and consolidated net profit of Rs. 17,370 lakhs (up 24.1% YoY). Standalone EPS improved to Rs. 58.13 from Rs. 49.49. Additionally, the Board recommended a final dividend of Rs. 14 per share (bringing total FY26 dividend to Rs. 22 per share including Rs. 8 interim dividend already paid).
The ESOP grant aligns employee interests with shareholders but has no direct impact on stock price. The strong financial results with 24% profit growth and increased dividend payout are positive signals for investors. The record date for dividend is June 26, 2026.
