On the reaction day the stock moved 1.0 pts less than Nifty Smallcap 250 and 1.3 pts less than its Auto Components & Equipments peers, over the same two closes: a difference in percentage points, not a measure of what the filing did.
Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
JBM Auto's board approved audited financial results for Q4 and the full year ended March 31, 2025, with a clean (unmodified) opinion from the statutory auditor R.N. Marwah & Co. LLP. On a consolidated basis, full-year revenue from operations grew about 9% to Rs. 5,472 crore from Rs. 5,009 crore, and profit before tax rose to Rs. 273 crore from Rs. 246 crore. The OEM division led growth with revenue up about 14% to Rs. 1,985 crore, while Component and Tool Room divisions grew 6-7%. The board recommended a final dividend of Rs. 0.85 per share (85% on the new face value of Rs. 1) subject to shareholder approval. A new wholly owned subsidiary, JBM EV Ventures Private Limited, was incorporated during the quarter to support the company's EV push. Share sub-division (1 share of Rs. 2 to 2 shares of Rs. 1) was completed in December 2024, and EPS figures were restated accordingly.
Stable, single-digit to low-double-digit growth with a clean audit and a modest dividend should be neutral to mildly positive for shareholders. Investors should note that consolidated non-current borrowings nearly doubled to about Rs. 1,199 crore, keeping the overall debt-to-equity ratio elevated at roughly 1.9x, which is worth watching.
