Shares of Cyient Ltd. fell by 6% in morning trade despite reporting a 39% year-on-year rise in consolidated net profit for the March quarter. The company reported a profit of Rs 170.4 crore in Q4 FY25, aligning closely with the Rs 172.6 crore estimate tracked by Bloomberg. The decline in share price comes as revenue dipped 0.9% sequentially to Rs 1,909.2 crore from Rs 1,926.4 crore, slightly below expectations.
Earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) rose 5% quarter-on-quarter to Rs 234.8 crore, with operating margins improving to 12.3% from 11.6% in the previous quarter. While the profit increase met analyst projections, the top-line softness may have contributed to investor caution, triggering the stock’s decline.
Cyient has also declared a final dividend of Rs 14 per share for FY25, amounting to Rs 155.5 crore, based on a face value of Rs 5 per share. The company’s performance reflects a mixed quarter with margin improvements and profit growth, but revenue pressures may be weighing on investor sentiment.
Cyient shares opened at ₹1,176.00, reaching a high of ₹1,192.50 and a low of ₹1,125.00 during the session. The stock remains significantly below its 52-week high of ₹2,157.45, hovering close to its 52-week low of ₹1,084.05
