Synopsis: Central Mine Planning & Design Institute Limited (CMPDI) realized an increase in net sales of 10.17% to 2,316.53 crore in FY 2025-26. The Board also announced a final dividend of 1.06 per share to the shareholders along with its earnings despite the net profit declining to 613.18 crore because of the revisions in the one-time employee payments.
Central Mine Planning & Design Institute Limited (CMPDI), a reputed subsidiary of Coal India, has declared its audited financial performance during the fiscal year ending 31 st March, 2026. The overall revenue of the company increased by 10.10% to Rs. 2,397.45 crore, as compared to Rs. 2,177.53 crore in the past year. One of the highlights of the announcement was that the Board recommended a final dividend of Rs. 1.06 per equity share in FY 2025-26, which will reward shareholders soon after the recent listing of the company.
The financial performance was bolstered by the Exploration segment, which contributed Rs. 1,110.55 crore to the topline. However, the company reported an 8.06% decline in annual Profit After Tax (PAT), which stood at Rs. 613.18 crore.
This compression was primarily driven by a sharp 21.49% increase in total expenses, including a Rs. 90.13 crore one-time charge for executive pay upgradation and an additional Rs. 12 crore for revised pay arrears. Despite these cost pressures, CMPDI maintained a strong cash position, with net working capital rising to Rs. 2,058.67 crore.
CMPDI shares traded at Rs. 180.98 (down 2.23%) on April 22, as investors booked profits following a recent 52-week high of Rs. 193.00. Despite the dip, sentiment remains supported by a Rs. 1.06 final dividend recommendation and strong annual results, featuring a net working capital of Rs. 2,058.67 crore.
With a robust trading volume of 32.29 lakh shares, the stock has delivered a 17.47% YTD return since its debut on March 30, 2026, maintaining a solid position well above its 52-week low of Rs. 150.16.
