Eternal Limited's board approved audited consolidated and standalone financial results for Q4 and FY ended March 31, 2025, with Deloitte Haskins & Sells issuing an unmodified opinion. Consolidated revenue from operations jumped to ₹20,243 crores in FY25 from ₹12,114 crores in FY24, a growth of about 67%. Profit after tax rose to ₹527 crores from ₹351 crores (about 50% growth), while EPS improved to ₹0.60 from ₹0.41. However, Q4 standalone quarterly PAT declined sharply to ₹39 crores from ₹175 crores in Q4 FY24, partly due to integration costs from the OTPL and WEPL acquisitions. The company raised ₹8,500 crores via QIP during the year and carried out acquisitions worth ₹2,014 crores from One97 Communications (Paytm) for movies ticketing and events businesses. The auditor also flagged an Emphasis of Matter on GST demands of ₹420 crores (Maharashtra ₹401 cr + West Bengal ₹19 cr) on delivery charges, which the company is contesting.
Strong full-year revenue and profit growth along with a clean audit opinion are positive signals, but the steep sequential and YoY drop in Q4 PAT and the large GST tax dispute are concerns that shareholders should monitor. The aggressive expansion into quick commerce and acquisitions has scaled revenue but compressed near-term profitability.
