The board approved audited financial results for Q4 and FY ended 31st March 2025. Revenue from operations for the full year came in at Rs. 10,902.41 lacs, up marginally from Rs. 10,859.71 lacs last year. Net profit was Rs. 150.33 lacs versus Rs. 148.77 lacs in FY24, with EPS at Rs. 4.92 (vs Rs. 4.87). The statutory auditor issued an unmodified (clean) opinion on the results. The board recommended a small dividend of Rs. 0.10 per share (1%) on equity shares of Rs. 10 face value, subject to shareholder approval. The company noted that its expansion and modernisation project is now complete.
Top-line growth is nearly flat year-on-year, but profit before tax improved around 60% on lower depreciation and contained costs. However, total borrowings have jumped sharply (long-term debt up ~70% to Rs. 84 crore) to fund the completed expansion, pushing the debt-to-equity ratio above 2.5x — a key watchpoint for shareholders. The token dividend suggests the company is conserving cash to service the higher debt load post-expansion.
