Naperol Investments Limited reported audited revenue from operations for FY26 surged to ₹26.72 crore, a significant increase from ₹19.57 crore in FY25. The company's Profit Before Tax for FY26 stood at ₹11.11 crore, showing a slight decrease from ₹11.72 crore in the previous year.
Key Financials and Management Updates
The board of Naperol Investments has recommended a final dividend of ₹16.48 per equity share for the financial year ended March 31, 2026. This proposal is subject to shareholder approval at the upcoming Annual General Meeting.
The company's audited financial results for FY26 show revenue from operations reached ₹2,672.37 lakh (₹26.72 crore). Profit Before Tax (PBT) for the period was ₹1,111.41 lakh (₹11.11 crore).
In personnel changes, Ms. Jui Masurkar has been appointed as the new Company Secretary & Compliance Officer, effective April 30, 2026. Mr. Chirag Kothari has resigned as Manager, with his tenure ending May 31, 2026.
What This Means for Investors
The proposed dividend of ₹16.48 per share marks a notable increase from previous payouts, offering shareholders a direct return. While the revenue growth highlights strong business activity, the dip in PBT suggests higher operating costs or reduced profit margins during the period.
These management changes, including the appointment of Ms. Masurkar and the departure of Mr. Kothari, signal an evolution in the company's administrative and compliance functions. Investors will likely watch how these shifts impact future operations and governance.
