The Board of Directors of Gujarat Containers Ltd approved audited financial results for Q4 and FY ended 31st March 2025, along with a dividend of Rs. 1.50 per share (15%) for FY 2024-25, subject to shareholder approval at the 33rd AGM scheduled for 14th August 2025. The company posted FY25 revenue from operations of Rs. 15,194.50 lakhs, up about 7.4% from Rs. 14,147.63 lakhs in FY24, but profit after tax declined to Rs. 827.06 lakhs from Rs. 901.68 lakhs, and EPS fell to Rs. 14.64 from Rs. 15.96. Q4 FY25 revenue was Rs. 3,641.74 lakhs with PAT of Rs. 165.65 lakhs, lower than Rs. 200.15 lakhs in Q4 FY24. The Board also fixed book closure from 9-14 August 2025, reappointed internal, cost, and secretarial auditors for FY26, and the statutory auditor (CNK & Associates LLP) issued an unmodified opinion on the financial results.
For shareholders: A Rs. 1.50 dividend (same as last year) offers modest income, but the decline in FY25 profits and a sharp drop in operating cash flow (from Rs. 1,116.65 lakhs to negative Rs. 47.10 lakhs) along with rising inventories and lower cash balance may weigh on short-term sentiment.
