Profit After Tax: Rs 634.69 crore; Total Income: Rs 5,336.44 crore.

What just happened
Mukand Limited has reported a significant rise in its standalone profit after tax (PAT) to Rs 634.69 crore for the financial year 2025-26. This surge is primarily attributed to a surplus generated from the sale of land. The company's total income also saw a rise to Rs 5,336.44 crore from Rs 4,703.19 crore in the previous fiscal year.
Why this matters
This strong financial performance, particularly the substantial increase in PAT, indicates improved profitability and effective asset monetization for Mukand Ltd. The improved net debt-to-equity ratio to 0.99 from 1.60 reflects a healthier balance sheet, reducing financial risk for investors.
The backstory
The company's Steel division remains its core business, producing 1,57,565 MT of Stainless Steel and 3,53,150 MT of Alloy Steel, contributing Rs 4,743.27 crore in revenue. The Industrial Machinery division, however, saw a revenue decline to Rs 150 crore from Rs 260 crore due to a planned relocation of its manufacturing operations to Lonand, Maharashtra.
What changes now
Mukand Ltd has completed the slump sale of its Industrial Machinery Business to its wholly-owned subsidiary, Mukand Heavy Engineering Limited (MHEL), for Rs 45.78 crore. This transaction was settled through the issuance of equity shares. The Board has recommended a dividend of 30% (Rs 3 per share), including a special payout of Re 1 per share to celebrate the Bajaj Group's centenary.
Risks to watch
The company acknowledged potential headwinds in its supply chain and raw material sourcing, citing exposure to global macroeconomic volatility. Management has highlighted this as a point requiring careful monitoring.
