Kewal Kiran Clothing Limited (KKCL), owner of brands like Killer, Lawman, Integriti, and Easies, announced its audited financial results for FY25 (year ended March 31, 2025) on May 12, 2025, with both joint auditors issuing an unmodified (clean) opinion. On a standalone basis, revenue from operations declined to Rs. 84,035 lakhs from Rs. 86,050 lakhs in FY24, and profit after tax fell to Rs. 14,086 lakhs (EPS of Rs. 22.86) from Rs. 15,453 lakhs (EPS of Rs. 25.07). On a consolidated basis, revenue jumped to Rs. 1,00,277 lakhs from Rs. 86,050 lakhs, driven by the addition of Kraus Casuals as a subsidiary from July 2024, while consolidated PAT was nearly flat at Rs. 14,919 lakhs versus Rs. 15,407 lakhs. The Board declared an interim dividend of Rs. 2 per share with a record date of May 16, 2025. The company also subscribed to a Rs. 1,300 lakhs rights issue in its wholly owned subsidiary, Kewal Kiran Developers Ltd.
Mixed picture for shareholders: standalone business showed a mild top-line decline (~2%) and a sharper ~9% drop in profits, but the consolidated topline grew ~16.5% thanks to the Kraus Casuals acquisition. The clean audit opinion and dividend declaration are positives, but the standalone weakness may temper investor enthusiasm in the near term.
