Persistent Systems' Board, at its meeting concluded on April 21, 2026, approved the audited financial results for Q4 and FY ending March 31, 2026, along with a final dividend of Rs. 18 per equity share (face value Rs. 5) for FY 2025-26, subject to shareholder approval. Including the interim dividend of Rs. 22 paid earlier, total dividend for the year stands at Rs. 40 per share, up from Rs. 35 in FY25. Consolidated revenue grew about 23.5% to Rs. 1,47,484 million, while net profit rose around 33% to Rs. 18,651 million. Statutory auditors B S R & Co. LLP issued an unmodified opinion on both standalone and consolidated results. The record date for the final dividend will be communicated separately.
The higher total dividend (Rs. 40 vs Rs. 35) signals confidence in cash flows and is positive for income-focused shareholders, while strong double-digit growth in revenue and profit supports a constructive near-term outlook for the stock.
