Tata Elxsi share price will remain in focus on Tuesday. It is a global design and technology services arm of the Tata Group. It is gearing up for a key announcement this week. As per news reports, the company will declare its Q4 FY25 earnings and potentially recommend a final dividend for the financial year on Thursday, April 17, 2025. 

According to its regulatory filing dated April 8, the meeting of the Board of Directors will review the audited financial results for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2025.

Strong Track Record of Dividends

Tata Elxsi has built a reputation as a consistent dividend-paying company. In FY24, it issued its highest-ever final dividend of ₹70 per share, following ₹60.60 in 2023, ₹42.50 in 2022, and ₹24 in 2021 — all on a face value of ₹10 per share. 

Currently, the company boasts a dividend yield of 1.47%, as per BSE data. While the record date for the upcoming dividend is yet to be announced, it is expected to be disclosed alongside the Q4 results.

Tata Elxsi Share Price Under Pressure

Despite its operational strengths, Tata Elxsi share price has had a turbulent run. Over the past 5 trading sessions, the stock has dipped around 8%, and over the past month, it is down 10%. 

The downward trend extends further, with the stock plummeting nearly 37% over the past six months. On a year-to-date basis, it has shed about 30%, trading close to its 52-week low of ₹4,700 — a far cry from its 52-week high of ₹9,080.

At 10.02 AM, Tata Elxsi share price was up 1.92% and was trading at ₹4,843.50.

What Tata Elxsi Brings to the Table

Unlike traditional IT services firms, Tata Elxsi is at the forefront of design-led innovation and engineering, offering solutions across automotive engineering, healthcare, broadcast media, embedded systems, and mobility. Its specialised services have positioned it as a niche player in the tech landscape.

Conclusion

With its Q4 results and a possible dividend announcement due, all eyes are on Tata Elxsi this Thursday. While the stock performance has been weak, long-term investors are watching closely for signs of financial resilience and continued shareholder rewards.

PI Industries share price surged over 8% on Friday, April 11, at 12.33 AM. This follows positive news on the global trade front. The stock was trading earlier at ±3,525.8, recovering strongly after recent losses. However, despite the rise, it remains down over 4% in 2025 so far.

US Pauses Tariffs on Multiple Countries

The recovery came after the United States announced a temporary pause on the imposition of reciprocal tariffs on up to 75 countries, which likely includes India. The decision was made public by US President Donald Trump on Wednesday night (Indian time).

Earlier, tariffs on Indian goods were raised to 26%, but have now been reduced to 10% for a 90-day period. This pauses eases pressure on companies dependent on exports, including PI Industries.

Exports Key to PI Industries’ Business

The announcement is especially positive for PI Industries, as a large part of its revenue comes from exports. At the end of the December quarter, the company had an order book worth US$1.4 billion, with 83% of it linked to exports.

In FY24, the North American market contributed 44% to the company’s revenue. India accounted for 18%, while Asia and Europe contributed 23% and 12%, respectively.

PI Industries Share Price Recovery After Previous Drop

PI Industries share price fell by 6% in the 2 sessions following the initial tariff announcement. The reversal in policy has triggered a bounce-back, driven by optimism around global trade and reduced cost pressures.

Conclusion

The US tariff pause has given relief to export-heavy firms like PI Industries. With a strong export pipeline and a large order book, the company is likely to benefit in the near term, especially if tariffs are not reinstated after the 90-day pause.

The stocks of gold loan companies such as Muthoot Finance share price and IIFL Finance share price will remain in focus today. This is because the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has released draft rules for gold loan companies.

These rules are aimed at improving risk management in the sector by ensuring adequate checks and balances for gold loan lenders. Let’s take a look at them.

Restrictions on Loans Against Certain Gold Assets

The RBI is worried about excessive lending against gold and silver. Gold is often used for saving and investing, but it is still a non-productive asset. This is because it doesn’t help in producing goods or creating jobs.

Therefore, the RBI has proposed to restrict lending against financial assets backed by gold and silver. This includes units of gold ETFs and mutual funds. Lenders like Muthoot Finance and IIFL Finance will not be allowed to provide loans if the ownership of the gold or silver collateral is doubtful.

At 10.39 AM, Muthoot Finance share price was down 6.71% and was trading at ₹1996.45.

Ownership Verification to Be Made Mandatory

Banks and financial institutions will be required to maintain proper records of how the ownership of gold collateral has been verified.

If the borrower cannot provide the original purchase receipt, they must submit a declaration or a suitable document explaining how the ownership was determined.

According to the draft guidelines, gold pledges must also follow the lender’s suspicious transaction reporting policy, as required by existing regulatory directions.

At 10.45 AM, IIFL Finance share price was down 0.40% and was trading at ₹324.

No Dual Usage of Same Gold Collateral

The RBI has made it clear that the same gold collateral cannot be used at the same time for both income-generating loans and consumption loans, regardless of the value. This is to ensure proper usage and monitoring of pledged gold assets. However, this condition will not affect the general right of lien that banks hold over assets used as collateral.

End-Use Monitoring and Evidence Required

Lenders will be required to install systems and controls to track the end-use of gold-backed loans. Periodic checks and supporting documents will need to be maintained.

For income-generating loans, documentary evidence of end-use will be compulsory. For consumption loans, lenders must define a threshold amount, beyond which documentary proof of end-use will also be mandatory. This ensures proper oversight of high-value consumption-based loans.

Loan Limits Based on Purpose

Banks and financial institutions must set a ceiling on the loan amount given to a single borrower against gold collateral. This ceiling must vary based on whether the loan is for income generation or consumption. It should be applied in a fair and non-discriminatory manner.

Conclusion

The RBI said the objective of these draft directions is to create a uniform set of rules across all lenders. The rules aim to fix current issues in lending practices, offer better clarity, and strengthen the conduct and accountability. They are likely to have a mixed impact on gold loan companies in the share market, especially in the short term.
