Rossell India Ltd reported total revenue of Rs 23,099 lakhs for FY2026, up 24% from Rs 18,552 lakhs in FY2025, partly boosted by the full-year inclusion of Dhoedaam Tea Estate (acquired Jan 2025). However, profit after tax declined 19% to Rs 1,586 lakhs from Rs 1,969 lakhs, despite revenue growth. The company recognized an exceptional item of Rs 24 lakhs (incremental gratuity due to new labour codes) and recorded Rs 462 lakhs impairment on non-current investments through OCI. EPS for FY26 stands at Rs 4.21 versus Rs 5.22 in the previous year. The auditors issued an unmodified (clean) opinion. The Board recommended dividend of Rs 0.40 per share (20%), unchanged from FY25.
Revenue growth of 24% is encouraging, but the 19% decline in profitability despite higher revenues signals margin pressure and higher input costs. The stock may face near-term weakness if markets focus on the PAT decline, though the clean audit and dividend declaration provide some stability.
