India Glycols Approves 1:2 Stock Split

India Glycols, a leading player in the chemicals and speciality chemicals segment, announced on May 30, 2025, that its board has approved a 1:2 stock split. The move comes alongside the release of the company’s fourth quarter and full-year financial results for FY25. Despite a decline in quarterly revenue, India Glycols reported strong growth in profitability for both the quarter and the full year.

Details of the Stock Split

In a regulatory filing, the company stated that it would split each equity share of ₹10 face value into two equity shares of ₹5 face value. "Record date for the same will be intimated in due course," the company said.

This is the first time India Glycols has implemented a stock split or announced a bonus issue. A stock split increases the total number of outstanding shares and is often undertaken to improve stock liquidity and make shares more accessible to a broader base of retail investors. It does not affect the company’s market capitalisation or the overall value held by shareholders.

Quarterly Financial Performance – Q4 FY25

India Glycols reported a 51.67% rise in net profit for the quarter ended March 31, 2025. The company’s net profit stood at ₹64.02 crore, up from ₹42.21 crore in the corresponding quarter of the previous year.

However, the company witnessed a decline in revenue during the quarter. Sales dropped by 6.79% to ₹863.22 crore, compared to ₹926.14 crore in Q4 FY24. Despite the drop in revenue, the growth in profit indicates a potential improvement in margins or cost management.

Full-Year FY25 Financial Performance

For the financial year ended March 31, 2025, India Glycols posted a net profit of ₹230.92 crore, marking a 33.49% increase from ₹172.99 crore reported in the previous year. Revenue for the year rose 14.40%, reaching ₹3,768.26 crore from ₹3,293.97 crore in FY24.

The robust annual performance reflects the company’s continued efforts to grow its operations, manage input costs, and strengthen its market presence across domestic and international markets.

India Glycols Share Price Performance

On May 30, 2025, the day of the announcement, India Glycols share price opened slightly higher at ₹1,911.60, compared to the previous close of ₹1,910.30. During the trading session, the stock touched a new 52-week high of ₹1,948.50. By market close, the stock was trading at ₹1,885.00 on the NSE. The 52-week low of ₹678.55 was recorded on June 5, 2024.

Conclusion

India Glycols’ board approval for a 1:2 stock split comes at a time when the company is posting strong annual financial results. While the latest quarter saw a decline in sales, the overall profitability trend remains positive. The upcoming announcement of the record date will be of interest to shareholders looking to benefit from the stock split. The move may also enhance stock liquidity and make shares more affordable for smaller investors.
