🚰 Finolex Industries FY25 Results: ₹800 Cr Profit, ₹3.60 Dividend — Pipe Dreams or Real Asset Play?
Finolex Industries reported a consolidated PAT of ₹800.03 Cr, up 69% YoY, with revenue of ₹4,141.97 Cr. But here’s the twist: ₹417 Cr of that profit came from an exceptional land deal in Pune. EPS jumped to ₹12.94, and the company declared a ₹3.60/share dividend. So, is this plastics major turning into a real estate PE fund?
