HeidelbergCement India reported FY26 revenue of Rs 23,296 million, up 8.4% YoY from Rs 21,489 million, driven by 8.8% volume growth. Profit after tax surged 25.5% to Rs 1,340 million from Rs 1,068 million, benefiting from cost optimization. EBITDA grew 19.8% to Rs 2,869 million with margin expanding 117 bps to 12.3%. The company recommended a dividend of Rs 7 per share (70%). Q4 showed mixed picture with revenue up 5.5% but PAT declining 10.4% due to margin compression. An exceptional item of Rs 80.4 million was recognized due to new Labour Code implementation. The company completed repayment of its final interest-free loan tranche of Rs 687 million.
Strong full-year performance with 25.5% PAT growth and margin expansion signals operational efficiency improvements. The Q4 margin compression and PAT decline may create near-term stock volatility despite the healthy full-year numbers. The dividend yield remains attractive at current prices.
