Order inflow during the March 2025 quarter stood at Rs 896.13 billion, marking a 24 per cent year-on-year rise. International orders accounted for Rs 627.39 billion or 70 per cent of the total.

The company’s board has recommended a final dividend of Rs 34 per share. Although quarterly revenue fell short of Bloomberg analysts' estimate of Rs 762.98 billion, L&T exceeded profit expectations, beating the forecast net income of Rs 45.45 billion.

S N Subrahmanyan, L&T’s Chairman and Managing Director, said: “We achieved the highest-ever yearly order inflows in the company’s history, boosting our order book to record levels. Strong revenue growth underscores our focus on operational excellence, innovation, and digitalisation.”

L&T also made strategic investments during the year to strengthen its capabilities in semiconductors and data centres.
