Roto Pumps' board, at its May 17, 2025 meeting, approved a bonus issue of 2 equity shares for every 1 held, to be funded from securities premium and free reserves of about ₹1,256 lakhs required, with the company holding ₹21,423 lakhs in reserves as of March 31, 2025. The board also recommended a final dividend of ₹0.80 per share (80%) with a record date of July 11, 2025 for both the dividend and bonus issue. Standalone FY25 revenue grew modestly to ₹24,037 lakhs (vs ₹22,980 lakhs last year), but net profit declined to ₹3,079 lakhs (vs ₹3,625 lakhs). Consolidated revenue rose to ₹29,794 lakhs with net profit at ₹3,367 lakhs (vs ₹3,942 lakhs). Authorized share capital will be doubled from ₹10 crore to ₹20 crore, subject to shareholder approval via postal ballot.
The 2:1 bonus issue rewards shareholders and improves liquidity of the stock, while the 80% dividend signals cash generation confidence. The lower profitability despite revenue growth may temper enthusiasm, but the strong free reserves backing the bonus underline balance sheet strength.
