MSTC Ltd reported standalone revenue from operations of Rs 36,965.66 Lakhs for FY2026, up 18.9% from Rs 31,095.96 Lakhs in FY2025. However, Profit After Tax declined significantly to Rs 22,168.87 Lakhs from Rs 40,298.09 Lakhs (down 45%) primarily because the previous year included a one-time exceptional gain of Rs 30,169.19 Lakhs from sale of FSNL investment. Excluding that one-time item, operational profitability improved. The Board recommended final dividend of Rs 8.10 per share (81%) in addition to interim dividend already paid. The company also received unmodified (clean) audit opinion from S Guha & Associates. The auditors drew emphasis of matter on contingent borrowings of Rs 14,361.97 Lakhs related to a disputed Standard Chartered Bank case, Rs 1,471.19 Lakhs old liabilities written back, and Rs 144 Lakhs impairment loss on Mahindra MSTC Recycling JV investment.
Despite strong revenue growth of ~19%, the headline PAT decline due to prior year one-time gain may cause initial negative market reaction. However, the clean audit opinion and consistent dividend payouts indicate financial stability. The contingent SCB liability and impairment charges remain watch items for investors.
