Shares of VST Industries experienced a significant increase following the announcement of the company’s fourth-quarter results for fiscal year 2026, surging as much as 19 percent during the trading session. By approximately 11:33 AM, the stock was up 14 percent, trading at ₹276.11, after reaching an intraday high of ₹286.78, compared to its previous closing price of ₹241.53.
The rise in share price was driven by the release of promising financial results for the March quarter. VST Industries reported a nearly twofold increase in profit after tax, which reached ₹116.69 crore for the March 2026 quarter, up from ₹53 crore in the same period the previous year. This remarkable growth can be attributed to enhanced operational performance. Revenue from operations for the quarter rose 52 percent year-on-year, totaling ₹688.88 crore, in contrast to ₹453.38 crore for the equivalent quarter last year.
On an annual basis, the company reported a slight increase in profit, with the profit after tax for FY26 totaling ₹292.26 crore, compared to ₹290.40 crore for FY25.
In addition to the strong financial results, the company’s board recommended a final dividend of ₹12 per equity share of face value ₹10. This dividend will be subject to approval by shareholders at the upcoming 95th Annual General Meeting (AGM) and, if approved, will be disbursed within 30 days of the decision.
The financial performance and positive investor sentiment positioned VST Industries favorably in the market.
