CEAT Ltd reported a mixed set of numbers for the quarter ended March 2025, with net profit declining despite healthy growth in revenue.
The tyre maker’s net profit dropped 8.4% year-on-year to ₹99.5 crore, compared with ₹108.6 crore in the same quarter last year, impacted by weaker operating performance and margin compression.
Revenue from operations, however, rose 14.3% to ₹3,420.6 crore versus ₹2,991.9 crore in Q4 FY24, indicating strong demand traction across key segments.
On the operating front, EBITDA fell marginally by 0.9% to ₹388 crore from ₹391.7 crore last year. Operating margins slipped to 11.3% from 13.1% a year ago, reflecting input cost pressures and a change in product mix.
The company’s board has recommended a dividend of ₹30 per share (300% of the face value) for FY2024-25. The payout is subject to shareholder approval at the upcoming Annual General Meeting, and will be disbursed within 30 days of the meeting.
