Maruti Suzuki India, the nation's leading automaker, announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and full fiscal year ending March 31, 2026. The company reported a 6.45% year-on-year decline in consolidated net profit for Q4, settling at Rs 3,659 crore, down from Rs 3,911.10 crore in the corresponding period last year. This dip was largely attributed to mark-to-market impacts.
Despite the fall in profit, Maruti Suzuki saw a robust increase in its operational revenue. Quarterly revenue surged by 28.21% to Rs 52,462.50 crore, a significant rise from Rs 40,920 crore reported in Q4 FY2024-25. The company's Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (EBITDA) also climbed 27.13% to Rs 6,158.30 crore, compared to Rs 4,844 crore a year ago, though the EBITDA margin slightly contracted to 11.74% from 11.84%.
Share Performance and Dividend Announcement
Following the earnings announcement, shares of Maruti Suzuki India experienced a dip, falling over 2% to Rs 12,953 on the BSE during afternoon trading on Tuesday. This movement caused the firm's market capitalization to slip to Rs 4.07 lakh crore.
In a notable development for shareholders, the company's board recommended its highest-ever dividend of Rs 140 per share for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026. This is an increase from the Rs 135 per share dividend paid in FY2024-25. The record date for the dividend has been set for Friday, August 7, 2026, with the payment scheduled for September 9, 2026, pending approval at the upcoming Annual General Meeting.
