During Q4 FY26, Aditya Birla Real Estate reported consolidated total income of ₹98 crore from continuing operations, a significant decrease from ₹408 crore reported in Q4 FY25. The company reported a loss before tax from continuing operations of around ₹192 crore during the quarter, primarily due to higher project-related expenses and operational costs.
However, profit from discontinued operations stood at approximately ₹116 crore during Q4 FY26, compared to a loss in the corresponding quarter last year. As a result, the company reported a consolidated net profit of around ₹5 crore during Q4 FY26, compared to a consolidated loss of approximately ₹135 crore reported in Q4 FY25. This marked a significant turnaround in profitability on a year-on-year basis.
Total income increased from around ₹90 crore in Q3 FY26 to nearly ₹98 crore in Q4 FY26. The biggest improvement came at the profitability level. The company had reported a consolidated net loss of approximately ₹75 crore during Q3 FY26, whereas Q4 FY26 ended with a net profit of around ₹5 crore.
Along with the quarterly results, the board of directors recommended a dividend of ₹2.50 per equity share having a face value of ₹10 each for FY26. The proposed dividend represents 25% of the paid-up equity share capital of the company and is higher than the 20% dividend paid in the previous financial year.
Aditya Birla Real Estate reported a notable turnaround in Q4 FY26 as the company returned to profitability despite challenges in continuing operations. Contribution from discontinued operations and improved execution supported overall earnings during the quarter. The announcement of a higher dividend further improved investor sentiment, resulting in positive movement in the stock price.
