Paushak Ltd reported FY25 revenue from operations of Rs. 21,095 lacs, up about 2.3% from Rs. 20,626 lacs in FY24. However, total income fell slightly to Rs. 22,519 lacs from Rs. 22,675 lacs due to lower other income. Profit after tax declined roughly 9% to Rs. 4,938 lacs (from Rs. 5,435 lacs), and EPS dropped to Rs. 160.21 from Rs. 176.35. The Board recommended a steady dividend of Rs. 20 per share (200%), unchanged from the previous year. The company undertook significant capex of Rs. 16,047 lacs on property, plant and equipment during the year, more than four times the FY24 figure of Rs. 3,908 lacs, suggesting a major capacity expansion. Statutory auditor Haribhakti & Co. LLP issued an unmodified (clean) opinion and will be replaced by CNK & Associates LLP for a five-year term starting from the upcoming AGM.
Profitability has compressed despite modest revenue growth, with PAT margins slipping as expenses rose faster than operating income. The heavy capex signals growth ambitions but will need to translate into revenue and margin improvement in coming years. The maintained 200% dividend and clean audit opinion are positives for shareholders.
