Kajaria Ceramics reported strong financial results for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2026. Consolidated revenue rose 12.4% year-on-year to ₹1,373 crore. Net profit surged by 262.5% to ₹156.6 crore, up from ₹43.2 crore in the same period last year, driven by margin expansion.

Alongside these results, the company's board recommended a final dividend of ₹6 per share for FY26. They also approved a share buyback program valued at up to ₹296.7 crore, with shares to be repurchased at ₹1,380 each. This follows a total dividend payout of ₹12 per share for FY24.

In line with these corporate actions, Kajaria Ceramics announced the reopening of its trading window for company securities. This window will become active 48 hours after the outcome of the board meeting held on April 30, 2026, is submitted. The board meeting was convened to consider the audited financial results for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, the dividend recommendation, and the share buyback proposal.

The reopening of the trading window allows shareholders to resume trading Kajaria Ceramics' shares after a restricted period. Investors will be watching the execution of the share buyback and the dividend distribution details.

Kajaria Ceramics is India's largest tile manufacturer, holding a significant market position compared to peers such as Somany Ceramics and Cera Sanitaryware.
