VST Industries Q4 Profit at ₹53 Crore, Revenue at ₹454 Crore; Board Declares ₹10 Dividend

VST Industries Ltd. posted its financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, reporting a consolidated profit after tax (PAT) of ₹53 crore, down 39.9% year-on-year from ₹88.2 crore in the same quarter last year. The company’s total revenue from operations for Q4 stood at ₹454 crore, reflecting a 4.6% decline compared to ₹476 crore in the previous year’s corresponding quarter. Total income, including other income, was ₹464 crore, while total expenses were contained at ₹397 crore.

 

Despite the dip in quarterly profit, VST Industries’ Board of Directors recommended a dividend of ₹10 per share, reaffirming the company’s commitment to shareholder returns. The dividend will be paid subject to approval at the upcoming annual general meeting.

 

The muted performance this quarter was primarily attributed to higher input costs and subdued demand. However, management highlighted stable topline performance and strong operational fundamentals, with a focus on cost optimization and market expansion strategies for the coming year.

 

VST Industries remains a key player in India’s tobacco sector, maintaining a robust balance sheet and consistent dividend policy.
