PNB Housing Finance reported strong financial performance for FY2026 with standalone net profit of Rs 2,327.88 crore, up 19% from Rs 1,948.95 crore in FY2025. Total standalone income grew to Rs 8,514.29 crore from Rs 7,661.22 crore. The Board recommended a final dividend of Rs 8 per equity share (face value Rs 10), representing a 60% increase from the previous year's Rs 5 per share. This dividend is subject to shareholder approval at the ensuing AGM. The company's earnings per share improved to Rs 89.41 from Rs 75.02 year-on-year, reflecting healthy profitability growth in the housing finance business.
The 60% dividend increase signals confidence in the company's financial health and cash generation ability. Shareholders can expect enhanced returns, though the actual dividend yield will depend on the prevailing stock price. The strong profit growth indicates robust business performance.
