On February 11, 2025, shares of Engineers India Limited (EIL) dropped by approximately 3% during morning trading, hitting a day’s low of ₹165.00 at 09:20 AM after opening at ₹168.15. The decline in EIL share price followed the company’s release of financial results for the quarter ending December 31, 2025. Despite reporting a strong 72% year-on-year (YoY) increase in net profit—driven by enhanced operational efficiency—EIL’s shares saw a dip. The company’s net profit rose to ₹108.73 crore from ₹63.34 crore in the same quarter of the previous year.
However, revenue from operations fell 12% YoY to ₹764.6 crore from ₹867.6 crore in Q3 FY24. Despite the revenue decline, operational profitability remained robust, with EBITDA surging 95.8% YoY to ₹98 crore, nearly doubling from ₹50 crore in the prior-year period. Additionally, the EBITDA margin improved significantly to 12.8% in Q3 FY25, up from 5.8% in Q3 FY24, reflecting better cost efficiencies and an optimized project mix.
The Board of Directors approved an interim dividend of ₹2 per share for the financial year 2024-25. The record date for eligible shareholders is set for February 14, 2025, with the dividend payout commencing on March 3, 2025.
