The Yamuna Syndicate Limited has recommended a final dividend of ₹500 per equity share of ₹100 each for the financial year ended March 31, 2026, signaling strong cash generation despite challenging market conditions in its core trading segments. The proposal, which requires approval by shareholders at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting (AGM), is expected to result in an outflow of ₹1,536.82 lakh if declared. This recommendation comes as the company reports a standalone net profit after tax of ₹1,942.68 lakh for FY26, up from ₹1,617.35 lakh in the previous year, driven largely by increased dividend income from its associate company, Isgec Heavy Engineering Limited.

Pursuant to Regulation 34 and 30(2) of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, the company circulated the notice for its 72nd AGM and the Annual Report for FY26 on July 31, 2026. The meeting will be held on Monday, August 24, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. (IST) through Video Conferencing (VC) or Other Audio Visual Means (OAVM). The cut-off date for determining eligibility to vote via remote e-voting or attend the meeting is Monday, August 17, 2026. This same date serves as the record date for determining entitlement to the proposed dividend. If approved, the dividend will be paid on or before September 22, 2026.

Financial Performance and Operational Highlights

For FY26, The Yamuna Syndicate Limited reported revenue from operations of ₹6,896.84 lakh, a 6% increase over the previous year’s ₹6,482.01 lakh. Total income stood at ₹8,825.22 lakh, aided by other income of ₹1,928.38 lakh, which includes significant dividend receipts. Total expenses were ₹6,755.90 lakh. Profit before tax was ₹2,039.65 lakh, after accounting for an exceptional item of ₹29.67 lakh related to the statutory impact of new Labour Codes. Earnings per share (EPS) rose to ₹632.04 from ₹526.20 in FY25.

Operationally, the battery trading business met targets with controlled investments, while the fuel retail outlet segment remained robust with no supply-side disruptions. Electrical goods trading saw satisfactory performance, particularly in the fourth quarter, buoyed by increased air conditioner distribution due to favorable climate projections. However, margins in automotive lubricants remained under pressure due to stiff competition, and customer outstandings continue to be a focus area. The company also entered the PVC pipes trading line in the second half of the year, though profitability remains to be established.
