Star Cement Limited declared an interim dividend of Re. 1 per share (100% on face value of Re. 1) for FY 2025-26, with the record date set as August 14, 2025 and payment to be made on or before September 7, 2025. The company reported a strong turnaround in Q1 FY26 standalone results, with revenue from operations rising to Rs. 544.7 crore (from Rs. 471.7 crore in Q1 FY25) and profit after tax of Rs. 24.2 crore compared to a loss of Rs. 13.1 crore in the same quarter last year. On a consolidated basis, revenue grew to Rs. 912 crore (from Rs. 751 crore) and PAT jumped to Rs. 98.2 crore from Rs. 31 crore, a growth of over 200% year-on-year. Subsidiary Star Smart Building Solutions also commenced production of AAC Blocks and construction chemicals at Guwahati in June 2025, adding a new revenue stream.
Positive for shareholders — the company has swung back to profitability on both standalone and consolidated levels, declared an interim dividend, and is expanding into new product categories. This combination of earnings recovery and capital return is likely to be viewed favorably by the market, though the dividend amount of Re. 1 per share is modest relative to typical share prices.
