The Board of Directors recommended a final dividend of Rs. 0.75 per equity share (face value Rs. 1 each) for FY2025-26, totaling Rs. 16.01 crores, subject to shareholder approval at the ensuing AGM. For Q4 FY26, standalone revenue grew 6.4% year-on-year to Rs. 171.49 crores, but profit after tax declined 25.4% to Rs. 12.95 crores due to higher employee costs and finance charges. For the full year FY26, standalone revenue increased 10.5% to Rs. 668.65 crores while PAT fell 17.3% to Rs. 70.20 crores. Consolidated revenue for FY26 was Rs. 707.28 crores with PAT of Rs. 66.79 crores. The company also completed acquisitions of Zillion Hotels (Juhu, Mumbai) and Fishermans Grove/Thali Hotels (Kerala) during the year.
The 75% dividend payout ratio signals management confidence in cash flows despite profit decline. However, the year-on-year drop in profitability may concern investors, though the dividend provides some support to shareholder returns.
