Nestle India share price fell by 0.55% to ₹2,420 at 12.18 PM. The company has announced its FY25 financial results today. The company posted a net profit of ₹885.4 crore, nearly in line with street expectations of ₹892 crore. Its revenue from operations came in at ₹5,503 crore, also close to the expected ₹5,530 crore.

Nestle’s performance was driven by steady demand across its product categories, with strong contributions from both rural and urban markets. The company managed to keep pricing stable even with rising input costs, which helped maintain its customer base.

EBITDA Beats Estimates; Margins Improve

 Nestle India reported an EBITDA of ₹1,389 crore, higher than the market expectation of ₹1,351 crore. The company’s EBITDA margin improved to 25.2%, beating the projected 24.4%. This increase was supported by better cost control and favorable prices of some raw materials, helping the company protect its profitability.

₹10 Final Dividend Declared

To reward its shareholders, Nestle’s board recommended a final dividend of ₹10 per share for the financial year 2025. This comes on top of earlier interim dividends declared during the year, reflecting the company’s consistent profit growth and shareholder-friendly approach.

Nestle India Share Price Performance and Market Sentiment

 Nestle shares opened higher and gained 3.4% after the announcement but later slipped into negative territory. This reaction was similar to peer company HUL, indicating that broader market trends might be affecting investor sentiment, regardless of strong fundamentals.

Conclusion

Nestle India continues to show strength through innovation, deeper rural reach, and premium product strategies. While global commodity prices may impact future margins, efficient operations and brand strength are likely to support the company in FY26.

Bajaj Housing Finance share price was up 0.48% and was trading at ₹1131.79 at 3.07 PM. The company is set to announce its results for the March 2025 quarter today, Wednesday, April 23. The company’s stock has already caught investor attention, rising by 8% over the past month. On Tuesday, it closed slightly higher at ₹131.34.

High Street Expectations Driving Bajaj Finance Share Price

Earlier this month, the company shared its provisional business update for the quarter. Bajaj Housing Finance reported gross disbursements of ₹14,250 crore in Q4, up from ₹11,393 crore during the same quarter last year. This is a sign of strong demand for housing loans, which is attracting investors towards the stock.

The company’s Assets Under Management (AUM) remained above ₹1 lakh crore. In fact, it grew by 26% year-on-year, reaching ₹1.14 lakh crore. During this quarter alone, AUM increased by ₹6,365 crore, showing consistent business expansion. This is expected to further drive the Bajaj Finance share price.

Loan Book and Market Focus Areas

 At the end of the March 2025 quarter, the company’s loan assets stood at ₹99,500 crore, which is a big jump from ₹79,301 crore recorded at the end of March 2024.

Investors and analysts will be keeping a close eye on Bajaj Housing Finance’s Net Interest Income (NII) and asset quality in this earnings report. In the December quarter, NII had risen by 25% year-on-year, while the asset quality remained steady, which was seen as a positive sign by the market.

Lock-in Period Ends, More Shares in Market

 Another major development this month was the end of the shareholder lock-in period. As a result, 529 crore shares, or 62% of the company’s equity, became available for trading. This increased liquidity could impact share price movements going forward.

Conclusion

 With strong disbursement growth, expanding AUM, and a stable loan book, all eyes are on Bajaj Housing Finance’s financial report. If key metrics like NII and asset quality meet expectations, the stock could see further gains.
