ITC Q4 Earnings Update: ITC Limited, a major Indian company with businesses in cigarettes, FMCG, agriculture, and packaging, announced its financial results for the fourth quarter (Q4) of the fiscal year 2025. The company reported a consolidated net profit of ₹19,807 crore. This high profit was mainly due to an exceptional gain of about ₹15,145 crore, which came from splitting its Hotels Business into a separate company called ITC Hotels Limited.
When this special gain is excluded, ITC’s adjusted net profit was ₹4,662 crore. This was lower compared to ₹5,190 crore in the same quarter last year. Despite this, ITC’s revenue from operations rose by 10% to ₹20,376 crore, beating market expectations. Last year, during the same period, revenue was ₹18,561 crore.
The company’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) also increased by 3.7% year-on-year to ₹6,836 crore. However, the EBITDA margin declined from 35.8% to 33.5%, showing a slight decrease in profitability percentage-wise.
Looking at different business segments, ITC’s core FMCG business, including cigarettes and other fast-moving consumer goods, earned ₹14,732 crore, up from ₹13,996 crore last year. Cigarette revenue rose to ₹9,228 crore, while other FMCG products brought in ₹5,503 crore.
The agriculture business performed well, generating ₹3,695 crore, higher than ₹3,136 crore last year. Revenue from paperboards, paper, and packaging also increased slightly to ₹2,189 crore.
Along with the results, ITC declared a final dividend of ₹7.85 per share for the financial year ending March 2025. This will be paid after approval at the annual general meeting. Combined with the earlier interim dividend of ₹6.50, total dividend payout for the year will be ₹14.35 per share.
