The Board of Directors at its May 8, 2025 meeting approved the audited standalone and consolidated financial results for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2025. Standalone revenue from operations declined about 7.3% year-on-year to Rs. 16,646.20 crore (from Rs. 17,966.41 crore in FY24). Despite the revenue drop, standalone profit after tax rose roughly 24.4% to Rs. 1,656.79 crore (from Rs. 1,331.44 crore), and consolidated PAT grew about 29.3% to Rs. 1,649.39 crore, helped by lower finance costs and a healthy share of profit from joint venture Indo Maroc Phosphore (Rs. 131.70 crore). Standalone EPS improved to Rs. 41.35 from Rs. 32.19. The Board recommended a final dividend of Rs. 5.00 per share (50%) subject to shareholder approval. Price Waterhouse Chartered Accountants LLP issued an unmodified (clean) audit opinion on both the standalone and consolidated results.
Shareholders benefit from a strong profit jump, a healthy 50% dividend, and a cleaner balance sheet (the company became debt-free, with borrowings going from Rs. 1,773 crore to nil). However, the fall in top-line revenue and lower finance-cost base suggest the profit growth may not be fully sustainable, so the stock reaction will depend on whether investors focus on margin expansion or the topline weakness.
