The board approved audited standalone and consolidated financial results for Q4 and FY25, along with the Integrated Filing. Standalone revenue from operations grew ~30% to Rs 660.02 Lacs (vs Rs 505.93 Lacs in FY24), with PAT up ~10% to Rs 281.65 Lacs. On a consolidated basis, revenue jumped ~42% to Rs 24,937.94 Lacs (vs Rs 17,590.31 Lacs), driven by the Cylinder Division, while consolidated PAT rose ~19% to Rs 1,009.53 Lacs and EPS improved to Rs 4.14 (from Rs 3.44). However, consolidated PBT dipped ~7% to Rs 932.37 Lacs, weighed by sharply higher finance costs (Rs 1,050 Lacs vs Rs 649.48 Lacs) and depreciation. Standalone has just an LPG segment (small, loss-making), while the real business activity sits in subsidiaries (Cylinder Division). The auditors (joint auditors L N J & Associates and Koshal & Associates) issued an unmodified (clean) opinion on both sets of results.
Top-line growth is healthy on a consolidated basis and the audit opinion is clean, which is reassuring for shareholders. However, rising finance costs, a sharp swing to negative operating cash flow (Rs -6,346.93 Lacs consolidated vs positive Rs 2,754.60 Lacs last year), and growing borrowings (consolidated borrowings up from ~Rs 6,047 Lacs to ~Rs 9,528 Lacs) are yellow flags to watch, even though the company remains profitable on the bottom line.
