DHP India reported a significant decline in financial performance for the year ended March 31, 2026, with net profit falling 83.4% to ₹110.57 crore. The drop from ₹665.34 crore in the previous year was driven by a net loss of ₹1,114.28 crore recognized under other comprehensive income, specifically due to the valuation of mutual fund and ETF investments. Despite the profitability squeeze, revenue from operations grew 25.3% to ₹723.76 crore for the fiscal year.

For the fourth quarter ended March 31, 2026, the company recorded a profit after tax of ₹40.97 crore, a sharp decrease from ₹647.47 crore in the corresponding quarter of the previous year. Revenue from operations for the quarter increased to ₹251.66 crore from ₹196.74 crore a year ago. The board, meeting on May 30, 2026, approved the audited financial results and recommended a final equity dividend of ₹4 per share, or 40% of the paid-up share capital, pending approval at the upcoming Annual General Meeting.

The statutory auditors, M/s. NKSJ & Associates, provided an unmodified opinion on the financial results. The company's balance sheet reflects total assets of ₹2,492.86 crore, with a net worth of ₹2,367.99 crore as of March 31, 2026. Cash and cash equivalents decreased significantly to ₹4.58 crore from ₹1,845.09 crore at the end of the previous year, largely due to net cash used in investing activities amounting to ₹1,951.30 crore.
