Strategic Outlook and Capex
Gallantt Ispat remains a net cash, zero term-debt company. An ongoing capex programme of ₹3,000 Cr is on track, focusing on capacity expansion, mine development, and renewable energy. Management noted that the expansion of finished steel capacity from 1.00 MMTPA to 1.29 MMTPA will be commissioned in H2 FY2027. Additionally, the operationalisation of iron ore mines in Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh by FY2028 is expected to improve EBITDA margins by approximately ₹2,000 per tonne.
Board Reconstitution and Dividend
The Board of Directors approved the audited financial results and recommended a final dividend of 20%, or ₹2.00 per equity share, for FY26. Notably, some Promoter Group shareholders voluntarily waived their right to receive the dividend to retain funds for ongoing expansion. The Board also accepted the resignations of Mrs. Smita Modi and Mr. Pankaj Khanna as Independent Directors effective May 5, 2026, citing work pressure and pre-occupation. Consequently, Mr. Sanjay Kumar Jain and Mr. Kishore Pariyar were appointed as Additional Directors (Non-Executive Independent) for a term of five years subject to shareholder approval. The Audit, Nomination and Remuneration, Stakeholders Relationship, and Corporate Social Responsibility Committees were reconstituted to reflect these changes.
