Continental Securities Ltd, a Jaipur-based NBFC (Base layer), reported strong FY25 results with total income rising about 79% to Rs 284.08 lakhs from Rs 158.55 lakhs in FY24. Profit after tax grew roughly 74% to Rs 132.86 lakhs (vs Rs 76.38 lakhs), while basic EPS improved to Rs 0.51 from Rs 0.31. For Q4 FY25 alone, PAT stood at Rs 31.51 lakhs versus Rs 19.87 lakhs a year earlier. The Board has recommended a modest final dividend of Rs 0.05 per share (2.5%) on a face value of Rs 2. Total assets expanded to Rs 1,824.80 lakhs, mainly driven by growth in the loan book to Rs 1,742.66 lakhs, supported by fresh equity infusion of Rs 423.75 lakhs. The statutory auditor (R.P. Khandelwal & Associates) issued an unmodified (clean) opinion on the results.
Strong top-line and profit growth signal healthy business expansion for this small NBFC, though shareholders should note that operating cash flow remained deeply negative (Rs -397.71 lakhs) as the company continued ramping up its loan book. The tiny dividend indicates profits are being reinvested for growth rather than returned to shareholders.
