Dividend declared
- First interim dividend of ₹0.50 per share, i.e. 50% of face value, declared for the financial year 2026-27.
- Record date fixed as Friday, 6th November 2026. Shareholders on the register on that date are eligible for the payout.
- The dividend will be paid on or before 30th November 2026.
Results approved at the same meeting
- The Board approved unaudited standalone financial results for the quarter and half year ended September 30, 2026.
- The Audit Committee reviewed and recommended the results, and the statutory auditors M/s. Maheshwari & Co. issued a review report with an unmodified conclusion.
- Quarter revenue from operations: ₹4,573.22 million, against ₹3,700.44 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2025.
- Quarter net profit: ₹458.56 million, against ₹256.92 million in the same quarter a year earlier.
- Half year net profit: ₹587.03 million.
One-off insurance gain inside the quarter
- The quarter's profit includes a net exceptional gain of ₹353.17 million connected with the fire at the company's Rajkot plant on December 11, 2024.
- The company recognised this amount based on confirmation received from the insurance company regarding final claim approval; the amount was received on October 12, 2026 and was shown as receivable as at September 30, 2026.
- Because this is an exceptional item, a reader judging the ordinary course of business may want to look at profit before exceptional items rather than the reported quarter figure.
What shareholders should note
- To receive the dividend, shares must be held in demat or on the register in the name of the holder on the record date of 6th November 2026.
- Payment is scheduled on or before 30th November 2026; the mode and credit follow the details registered with the depository or registrar.
- As stated in the update, the trading window for designated persons opens from Thursday, 5th November 2026 onwards.
How to read this together
- A dividend declaration is a return of cash to shareholders; here it is an interim payout for FY 2026-27, with a fixed record date and payment window to plan around.
- The earnings release and the dividend come from the same Board meeting, so the payout should be read alongside the quarterly numbers, remembering that a large part of the quarter's profit came from a one-time insurance settlement rather than regular operations.
