GHCL Limited reported audited standalone financial results for FY 2025-26 with revenue from operations of Rs. 3,064.21 crores, down 3.75% from Rs. 3,183.48 crores in the prior year. Net profit after tax declined to Rs. 478.81 crores compared to Rs. 626.23 crores in FY 2024-25, representing approximately a 24% decrease. The Board recommended a dividend of Rs. 12 per equity share (120%) for FY 2025-26, payable on or after June 25, 2026 subject to shareholder approval. The company also amended its Dividend Distribution Policy increasing the payout ratio from 15% to 25% of PAT on standalone financials. Additionally, the Board approved appointment of Deloitte Haskins & Sells Chartered Accountants LLP as the new Statutory Auditor for 5 years from FY 2026-27 to FY 2030-31, replacing the existing auditor upon completion of their term. S.R. Batliboi & Co. LLP issued an unmodified (clean) opinion on both standalone and consolidated financial statements.
Revenue declined for the first time in several years and PAT dropped by about 24% due to lower commodity prices and challenging market conditions in the soda ash business. However, the clean audit opinion, increased dividend payout, and new auditor appointment signal management confidence. The company remains cash generative with Rs. 680.93 crore operating cash flow.
