GM Breweries on April 15 reported a net profit of Rs 60.46 crore for the fourth quarter of the financial year 2025. This marks a fall of over 30 percent from the Rs 87 crore net profit the liquor-maker had reported in the January-March quarter of financial year 2024.
Along with the Q4 results, GM Breweries also announced that its board has proposed a dividend of Rs 7.5 per equity share, which is now subject to shareholders approval. The shares of the company were trading over 2 percent higher at Rs 655 apiece in the afternoon.
While the company's net profit tumbled, its revenue from operations increased over 6 percent YoY to Rs 663 crore in Q4FY25. However, its total expenses also jumped nearly 6 percent YoY to Rs 635 crore during the reported quarter. Earnings per share (EPS), meanwhile, nearly halved to Rs 26.47.
GM Breweries was founded in 1981. The Mumbai-headquartered company manufactures and markets alcoholic beverages like country liquor (CL) and Indian-made foreign liquor (IMFL). Despite the rise in share price, the stock has fallen nearly 21 percent in 2025 so far. Earlier in March this year, the stock hit a fresh 52-week low of Rs 579.95 per share. The stock has made some recovery since then. However, it is still significantly lower than its 52-week high of Rs 1,049 apiece, which it had hit in September last year.
