Pidilite Industries saw its stock edge higher after the company delivered a strong set of results for the June quarter and sweetened the deal with a 1:1 bonus share issue and a ₹10 per share special dividend.
The adhesive and construction chemicals giant not only beat Street estimates across key financial metrics but also reinforced shareholder value through corporate actions that boosted market sentiment.
Pidilite’s board approved a 1:1 bonus issue, meaning shareholders will receive one additional share for every one share held. The record date for the bonus issue will be announced later.
Additionally, the board declared a special dividend of ₹10 per share, with the record date set for August 13.
For the quarter ended June 2025, Pidilite reported a net profit of ₹678 crore, marking an 18.7% year-on-year increase. Revenue also grew 10.5% YoY to ₹3,753 crore.
Operational performance was equally impressive. EBITDA rose 16% YoY to ₹941 crore, well above the estimated ₹874 crore. The EBITDA margin expanded by 110 basis points to 25%, again beating the 23.6% estimate. The company attributed the growth to strong demand across categories and improved operational efficiencies.
Pidilite Industries Ltd shares were trading at ₹3,034.60, up ₹37 or 1.23% at 3:10 PM on the NSE from the previous close of ₹2,997.60. The stock opened higher at ₹3,026.00 and touched an intraday high of ₹3,058.00, while the low stood at ₹2,973.10.
Pidilite Industries' strong Q1 FY26 performance, combined with the announcement of a 1:1 bonus issue and special dividend, has reinforced positive sentiment among investors. Going forward, investor focus will remain on sustained demand trends, margin stability, and the impact of macroeconomic factors on input costs.
