Cipla's Board has recommended a total dividend of Rs. 16 per equity share for FY25, comprising a regular final dividend of Rs. 13 plus a one-time special dividend of Rs. 3 to mark the company's 90th anniversary. The record date is fixed as June 27, 2025, subject to shareholder approval at the AGM. For FY25, consolidated revenue from operations grew about 6.9% to Rs. 27,547 crores, while net profit jumped roughly 27% to Rs. 5,269 crores. Q4 FY25 (standalone) was also strong, with standalone revenue at Rs. 4,797 crores and net profit of Rs. 1,485 crores. Basic EPS for the full year rose to Rs. 65.29 from Rs. 51.05 in the prior year. The auditors (Walker Chandiok & Co LLP) gave an unmodified opinion on the results.
Healthy profit growth and a celebratory special dividend are positive for shareholders, though the regular Rs. 13 dividend is unchanged from last year, so this is more of a stable payout with a bonus than a major hike. The stock may see mild positive sentiment around the record date, but no dramatic rerating is expected from the dividend alone.
