Marking a healthy improvement in its performance, Polycab India, a manufacturer of wires and cables, has registered a 33 per cent year-on-year (YoY) growth in its net profit in the fourth quarter of the financial year 2025 (Q4FY25). The profit after tax rose to Rs 734.4 crore in Q4FY25 from Rs 553.47 crore in Q4FY24.
The financial results of the company revealed a 25 per cent uptick in its revenue on a YoY basis as it rose to Rs 6,985.8 crore in Q4FY25. The earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) stood at Rs 1,025.4 crore in Q4FY25, a 35 per cent YoY increase.
“Our core wires and cables business maintained its strong momentum, the FMEG business grew ahead of industry as well as achieved quarterly profitability and the EPC business scaled new heights, all contributing to making Polycab the largest company by revenue in the Indian electrical industry, as well as reaffirming our position as the most profitable Company for the third consecutive year,” highlighted Inder T. Jaisinghani, Chairman and Managing Director, Polycab India.
Driven by sustained momentum across key sectors, the Wires and Cables (W&C) segment achieved a 22 per cent YoY growth for the quarter. Key contributors included increased government spending, improved project execution, continued strength in real estate and an inflationary trend in commodity prices, the company stated in an exchange filing.
The company highlighted that the Fast-moving Electrical Goods (FMEG) business registered a strong 33 per cent YoY growth, with all product categories maintaining a robust growth trajectory. The fans segment delivered impressive growth despite a delayed summer, reflecting the effectiveness of strategic initiatives and continued focus on premiumisation.
The Board of Directors have proposed a dividend of Rs 35 per share, representing 350 per cent of the company’s face value, for FY25. This takes up the Company’s dividend payout to 26.3 per cent from 25.5 per cent last year, in line with the project spring goal of increasing the dividend payout to over 30 per cent by FY30.
