Along with the 1:2 bonus issue and ₹16.50 Final Dividend, HPCL's Q4FY24 results highlight a 25% decrease in net profit. This drop in net profit was attributed to lower refining margins and a price cut in petrol and diesel.
Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Ltd (HPCL) announced a bonus issue in the ratio 1:2 on Thursday, May 9, where it will issue one free share for every two equity shares held. The record date for the bonus issue is set as June 21, 2024.
However, the company unveiled its January-March quarter results for fiscal 2023-24 (Q4FY24), reporting a 25% decrease in net profit to ₹2,709.31 crore compared to ₹3,608.32 crore in the same period last year. This decline is primarily attributed to lower refining margins and a ₹2 per litre reduction in petrol and diesel prices.
