GHCL Limited's board approved audited standalone and consolidated results for FY ended March 31, 2025. Revenue from operations fell to Rs. 3,183.48 Cr from Rs. 3,446.54 Cr in FY24, a decline of about 7.6%. Profit before tax (before exceptional items) rose to Rs. 838.15 Cr from Rs. 771.82 Cr, indicating better operating margins. Net profit was Rs. 626.23 Cr versus Rs. 793.55 Cr last year, but FY24 included a one-time exceptional gain of Rs. 219.29 Cr from the demerger of the spinning division, making the comparison uneven. EPS stood at Rs. 65.72 (basic). The board recommended a dividend of Rs. 12 per share (120%), approved a fresh capital budget of Rs. 31.92 Cr for FY26, and reappointed/appointed Secretarial, Internal, and Cost Auditors. Statutory auditors S.R. Batliboi & Co LLP issued an unmodified (clean) opinion.
Shareholders get a steady Rs. 12 dividend despite the revenue dip, as underlying profitability improved and long-term borrowings nearly halved (Rs. 115 Cr to Rs. 62 Cr). The clean audit opinion and strong operating cash flow of Rs. 637.70 Cr support investor confidence, though the lower headline net profit (due to last year's exceptional item not repeating) may cause short-term valuation pressure.
