Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
Eveready Industries India reported FY25 audited results on May 9, 2025. Standalone revenue from operations rose modestly to Rs. 1,343.92 crores from Rs. 1,314.16 crores (up ~2.3%), while profit after tax jumped to Rs. 82.38 crores from Rs. 66.73 crores (up ~23.4%), pushing EPS to Rs. 11.33 from Rs. 9.18. The Board recommended a dividend of Rs. 1.50 per share (30% on face value of Rs. 5), totalling Rs. 10.90 crores, subject to shareholder approval. Statutory auditor Singhi & Co. issued an unmodified (clean) opinion on both standalone and consolidated results. The Board also appointed Mr. Anirban Banerjee (currently SVP & SBU Head – Batteries, Flashlights & Lighting) as the new CEO effective May 10, 2025, and named MKB & Associates as Secretarial Auditor for five years.
Profit growth has outpaced revenue growth, reflecting margin expansion and lower finance costs — a positive signal for shareholders, supported by a steady dividend. However, auditors flagged an Emphasis of Matter regarding a Rs. 171.55 crore CCI penalty (under appeal at NCLAT with stay granted), which remains a key overhang and is shown as a contingent liability with no provision made. The leadership transition to a new CEO is a near-term watchpoint.
