The board declared a final dividend of INR 1 per share (10%). The real estate arm achieved full sell-out of its Dubai St. Regis project (investment INR 450-500 crores, expected returns INR 750-800 crores) and is pivoting to an asset-light development management model with two new mandates in Hyderabad and Kolkata. Management guided to no share buyback, declined to give numerical guidance, and outlined a focus on de-leveraging, operational excellence, and scaling bioethanol capacity to 1,000 KLPD.
