DAPS Advertising filed its Annual Report for FY 2024-25 with BSE along with the notice for its 26th Annual General Meeting scheduled for August 30, 2025 in Kanpur. Revenue from operations declined modestly to Rs. 1,907.01 lakhs (from Rs. 2,035.76 lakhs in FY24), but profit after tax grew about 9% to Rs. 118.62 lakhs (from Rs. 108.73 lakhs), pushing EPS up to Rs. 2.29 from Rs. 2.10. The board has recommended a dividend of Rs. 0.20 per share (2% on face value of Rs. 10), with the record date set for August 23, 2025. The company highlighted its strategic shift from print to outdoor and digital advertising, and its new DAVP (government advertising) empanelment as key milestones. IPO funds of Rs. 510 lakhs raised in November 2022 have been fully utilised for stated purposes. The board also proposed appointing a new statutory auditor, M/s. B. M. Chaturvedi & Co., for a five-year term.
Modest profit growth and a small dividend despite a slight revenue dip suggest improved margins. The pivot to digital/outdoor media and DAVP empanelment could expand the company's addressable market, especially in government advertising, which may support future revenue growth.
