The Board of Directors of Universal Cables Limited, held on May 22, 2025, approved audited standalone and consolidated financial results for Q4 and FY ended March 31, 2025. The Board recommended a final dividend of Rs. 4 per equity share (40%) on 3,46,95,381 shares, involving a total payout of Rs. 1,387.82 lakhs, subject to shareholder approval at the 80th AGM. Standalone FY25 revenue grew to Rs. 2,408.39 crores (up ~19% YoY) and standalone PAT stood at Rs. 57.28 crores (up ~6% YoY). The press release highlighted record quarterly revenue of Rs. 674.03 crores, ~90% capacity utilization, and a budgeted capex of Rs. 505 crores (Satna and Goa) to be completed in FY26. The Board also appointed M/s R.K. Mishra & Associates as Secretarial Auditors for 5 years (FY26–FY30) and M/s P K M B & Co. as Internal Auditors for the Satna Unit for FY26.
The Rs. 4 dividend continues a steady payout tradition and offers a modest yield, while the 19% revenue growth and high capacity utilization signal healthy operational momentum. Shareholders should note the auditor's emphasis-of-matter on the consolidation gap at associate Vindhya Telelinks' three subsidiaries, which is not a concern for the company's own books but is a governance red flag to monitor.
