Colgate Palmolive (India) Limited's Board, at its May 21, 2025 meeting, declared a Second Interim Dividend of Rs. 27 per equity share (face value Re. 1), taking total FY25 dividends to Rs. 51 per share alongside the Rs. 24 first interim paid in November 2024. Total payout for the second interim works out to Rs. 734 Crore. The company also reported FY25 audited results: net sales rose 6.3% YoY to Rs. 5,999 Crore and net profit grew 8.5% to Rs. 1,437 Crore, with full-year EPS at Rs. 52.83. Q4 FY25 was weaker, with net sales down 1.9% to Rs. 1,452 Crore on soft urban demand and intensified competition, though Q4 net profit stood at Rs. 355 Crore. Statutory auditors issued an unmodified opinion, and the 84th AGM is scheduled for July 22, 2025.
Shareholders on the record date of May 28, 2025 will receive the Rs. 27 per share dividend from June 16, 2025, with the full-year Rs. 51 payout signalling strong cash returns despite a soft Q4. The robust dividend underscores management's confidence in cash generation, though near-term top-line softness in oral care may temper sentiment around urban demand recovery.
