Deccan Cements reported annual standalone revenue of Rs 63,561.42 Lakhs for FY 2025-26, up 20.6% from Rs 52,697.72 Lakhs in the prior year. Net profit after tax surged to Rs 2,859.12 Lakhs, nearly 4x the Rs 753.30 Lakhs reported last year, boosted by a one-time net profit of Rs 1,284.07 Lakhs from sale of land at Solipet village, disclosed as an exceptional item. EPS for the year stood at Rs 20.41 versus Rs 5.38 previously. However, Q4 standalone results showed a loss before tax of Rs 1,082.91 Lakhs (vs profit of Rs 1,040.70 Lakhs in Q4 FY25), partly impacted by additional employee costs of Rs 70.31 Lakhs due to new labour code implementation. The Board recommended a dividend of Re 0.50 per share (10%). Statutory auditors gave an unmodified opinion. Results were approved on May 29, 2026.
Strong full-year profit growth is positive, but investors should note Q4 was loss-making and the annual profit surge was significantly inflated by a one-time land sale gain. The underlying operational performance needs closer examination.
