AI summary

CPCL reported strong Q4 FY2025-26 results with PAT of ₹1,400 crore, a massive jump from ₹450 crore in the same quarter last year, driven by doubling of Gross Refining Margin to US$ 13.75 per barrel. For the full year, PAT surged to ₹3,062 crore from ₹174 crore in the previous year, while revenue grew 10.6% to ₹78,611 crore. Crude throughput for the year improved to 11.71 MMT with 112% capacity utilisation. The board recommended a final dividend of ₹54 per share in addition to the ₹8 interim dividend already paid.

Likely market impact

The exceptional PAT growth reflects significantly improved refining margins, which more than doubled year-on-year. This indicates operational efficiency gains and favourable market conditions. Shareholders benefit from total dividend of ₹62 per share, the highest payout.
