Deccan Cements reported strong full-year results for FY 2025-26. Standalone revenue grew 20.6% to Rs. 6,356 lakhs (from Rs. 5,270 lakhs), while profit after tax surged 280% to Rs. 2,859 lakhs (from Rs. 753 lakhs), driven largely by a land sale at Solipet village generating an exceptional gain of Rs. 1,284 lakhs. Basic EPS more than tripled to Rs. 20.41 from Rs. 5.38. Finance costs rose significantly (Rs. 2,728 vs Rs. 1,275 lakhs) due to increased borrowing. The Board recommended a final dividend of Rs. 0.50 per share (10%) subject to shareholder approval at the 46th AGM. Cost auditors M/s Aruna Prasad & Co (Chennai) and internal auditors M/s M Bhaskara Rao & Co (Hyderabad) were appointed for FY 2026-27. Statutory auditors gave an unmodified opinion with no qualifications.
The sharp jump in PAT (nearly 4x YoY) — boosted by the one-time land disposal gain — is positive for sentiment, though investors should note the exceptional nature of the earnings uplift. The dividend yield is modest given the small payout, but signals management confidence. Rising finance costs warrant monitoring.
