Godrej Consumer Products' board approved audited financial results for Q4 and FY ended March 31, 2025, with a clean (unmodified) auditor opinion from BSR & Co. LLP. Consolidated revenue from operations rose modestly by about 2% YoY to ₹14,364 crore (FY25) from ₹14,096 crore (FY24), driven by growth in India and Indonesia, while the Africa segment revenue declined to ₹2,652 crore from ₹3,181 crore due to divestments. Reported consolidated profit after tax swung back to ₹1,852 crore from a loss of ₹561 crore in FY24, largely because FY24 carried massive one-time impairment and divestment losses in Africa totalling around ₹2,318 crore. Underlying operating margin slightly compressed to about 20.9% from 21.8% in FY24. The board declared an interim dividend of ₹5 per share (500% on face value of ₹1), with record date May 13, 2025 and payment by June 5, 2025. The 25th AGM is scheduled for August 7, 2025, and M/s. Nilesh Shah & Associates has been appointed as secretarial auditor for five years starting FY26.
The return to a healthy profit, ₹5 interim dividend, and clean audit are positive for shareholders. However, the rebound is largely due to the absence of last year's large one-time Africa charges rather than strong operational growth, and Africa revenue continues to shrink, which limits the upside sentiment.
