Sakthi Finance Limited's Board approved audited financial results for Q4 and full year ended March 31, 2025. Total revenue from operations grew modestly to ₹21,498.88 lakhs (FY24: ₹20,674.11 lakhs), while profit after tax rose to ₹1,665.15 lakhs (FY24: ₹1,570.54 lakhs), taking EPS to ₹2.57. The Board recommended an equity dividend of ₹0.80 per share (8% on face value), aggregating ₹517.65 lakhs, subject to shareholder approval. The Board also approved a fresh public issue of secured, redeemable NCDs up to ₹30,000 lakhs in one or more tranches, alongside scheduled redemptions of earlier NCDs in July and August 2025. Asset quality improved, with GNPA falling to 4.92% (FY24: 5.25%) and NNPA to 2.39% (FY24: 2.62%); capital adequacy strengthened to 18.63%. Statutory auditors M/s P N Raghavendra Rao & Co. issued an unmodified (clean) opinion, noting that the previous year was audited by predecessor auditors M/s CSK Prabhu & Co.
Clean audit, improved asset quality, dividend declaration, and a sharp swing to positive operating cash flow (₹22.06 cr vs ₹(27.99) cr) are positives for shareholders. The change of statutory auditors is a noteworthy governance item, and the new NCD fundraising signals continued business expansion but will add to leverage.
