Maruti Suzuki Q4 profit dips 1% YoY, FY25 net up 7.5%; announces highest-ever dividend

Profit after tax attributable to the company’s owners stood at ₹3,911 crore in Q4 FY25, compared to ₹3,952 crore in the same period last year.

However, on a sequential basis, consolidated net profit rose by 4.9 percent to ₹3,727 crore from the previous quarter.

Revenue from operations for the fourth quarter grew 6.4 percent year-on-year to ₹40,920 crore, up from ₹38,471 crore.

Sequentially, revenue also increased by 5.6 percent from ₹38,764 crore.

For the full financial year, Maruti Suzuki posted a 7.5 percent increase in net profit, reaching ₹14,500 crore compared to ₹13,488 crore in FY24.

Annual revenue came in at ₹1,52,913 crore, marking a 7.8 percent rise from ₹1,41,858 crore the previous year.

The company’s board recommended a final dividend of ₹4,244.4 crore for FY25, which translates to ₹135 per share (on a face value of ₹5 per share).

This is the highest dividend ever declared by Maruti Suzuki and is subject to shareholder approval at the upcoming AGM.

Reflecting on sales performance, the company said it recorded its best-ever annual sales and exports in FY25.

Maruti Suzuki retained its position as India’s top passenger vehicle exporter for the fourth year in a row, accounting for nearly 43 per cent of the country’s total exports in the segment.

“The domestic market growth was quite muted. For the company, a modest domestic sales growth of 2.7 per cent was compensated by a healthy 17.5 per cent export growth, leading to an aggregate growth of 4.6 per cent for the year. The company sold a total of 2,234,266 vehicles during the year, comprising 1,901,681 units in the domestic market and 332,585 units in the export market,” Maruti Suzuki said.
