Wendt (India) Ltd announced its audited financial results for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2025. The company reported standalone sales of Rs 2119.7 million, marking a 3% increase year-on-year. Domestic sales rose 7% to Rs 1,683.4 million, driven by strong demand from key sectors including auto components, steel, ceramics, and cutting tools. However, exports declined 12% to Rs 436.2 million due to geopolitical uncertainties and global recessionary trends. 

Standalone Profit After Tax (PAT) for the year stood at Rs 382.9 million, down 3% from the previous year, primarily due to an unfavorable product mix and increased costs. For Q4 FY25, the company reported sales of Rs 697.6 million (up 7% YoY) and PAT of Rs 124.7 million (down 5%). 

On a consolidated basis, Wendt (India) posted annual revenue of Rs 2311.4 million (up 3%) and a PAT of Rs 394.8 million (down 4%). Q4 consolidated revenue came in at Rs 749.4 million, up 8% from the same period last year, while PAT declined 4% to Rs 128.9 million. 

Its Thai subsidiary, Wendt Grinding Technologies Ltd, contributed Rs 215.4 million in revenue and Rs 13.7 million in PAT for FY25. 

The Board recommended a final dividend of Rs 20 per share, adding to the Rs 30 interim dividend paid earlier, taking the total dividend for FY25 to Rs 50 per share (500% of face value). 

Wendt (India) is part of the Murugappa Group, a diversified conglomerate with interests across engineering, financial services, agri-inputs, and more.
