- The board recommended a final dividend of ₹1 per share.

The full read
Munjal Auto Industries reported a mixed bag for FY26. While consolidated net profit climbed to ₹40.20 crore from ₹36.39 crore in FY25, the standalone business struggled, with profit slipping to ₹27.55 crore from ₹30.71 crore. The results, which are audited and cover the period ending March 31, 2026, include exceptional charges linked to past service costs under new labour codes. The board also recommended a final dividend of ₹1 per share. Because these results were widely anticipated and follow standard reporting cycles, the filing offers little in the way of surprise. The core test for the company is whether the consolidated growth can offset the standalone decline as labour code adjustments settle.
