Total income increased to ₹2,397.45 crore from ₹2,177.53 crore in the previous year. However, net profit after tax declined by 8.05% to ₹613.18 crore from ₹666.91 crore in FY25, primarily affected by a one-time pay upgradation cost of ₹90.13 crore.

Quarterly Performance

For the fourth quarter ended March 31, 2026, CMPDIL reported total income from operations of ₹853.52 crore compared to ₹778.18 crore in Q4 FY25. Net profit after tax for Q4 FY26 stood at ₹187.82 crore, down from ₹276.96 crore in the corresponding quarter of the previous year.

Dividend Declaration

The Board of Directors has recommended a final dividend of ₹1.06 per share of face value ₹2.00 for FY26, amounting to ₹75.68 crore. This takes the total dividend payout for FY26 to ₹300.59 crore, representing 49.02% of profit after tax, compared to 45% of PAT in FY25. The dividend is subject to approval at the upcoming Annual General Meeting and will be paid within 30 days from the date of declaration at the AGM.

Strategic Expansion Initiatives

Beyond financial results, CMPDIL's Board has approved exploration activities for strategic mineral resources. The company received approval for exploration of 2 blocks of rare earth elements and 1 block each of iron ore, graphite, and copper.

The company undertakes detailed and promotional drilling activities through agreements with MECL and private parties as per projects sanctioned by the Ministry of Coal, Coal India Limited, and NMET.
