The robust performance was primarily driven by faster growth in value-added products (VAP).

INDIA – Telangana-based Dodla Dairy has reported a 45.12 per cent annual growth in its consolidated net profit at Rs 67.96 crore (US$7.94 million) in its 4th quarter that ended March 2025.
Revenue from operations grew by 15.51 per cent to Rs 909.62 crore (US$106.43 million) compared to Rs 787.44 crore (US$92.08 million) during the same period a year ago.
Dodla Dairy Managing Director, Dodla Sunil Reddy, said, “I am pleased to share that during FY25, the company’s profit after tax (PAT) surpassed the Rs 200 crore milestone, reaching Rs 259.9 crore, on the back of a topline of Rs 3.1 crore, which grew at a healthy rate of 19 per cent. This robust performance was primarily driven by faster growth in value-added products (VAP) and healthy performance in Africa, as well as the Orgafeed business.”
EBITDA increased by 10.74% YoY to Rs 83.50 crore in the fourth quarter of FY25. EBITDA margin improved to 9.2% in Q4 FY25 as against 9.6% in Q4 FY24.
Profit before tax (PBT) was at Rs 90.28 crore (US$10.55 million), registering a growth of 40.75% from Rs 64.14 crore (US$ 7.50 million) recorded in the corresponding quarter previous year.
During the quarter, total expenses jumped 15.59% YoY to Rs 845.13 crore (US$98.80 million). The cost of materials consumed stood at Rs 613.32 crore (US$71.70 million), down 0.75% YoY, while employee benefit expenses were at Rs 40.61 crore (US$ 4.75 million), up 20.50% YoY, during the quarter.
Value-Added Product sales for Q4 stood at Rs 284.10 crore (US$33.21 million), marking a 28.2% year-on-year growth.
The news comes after the company’s stock price declined by 5.1% in April 2025, marking the fourth consecutive day of losses.
The recent drop follows a volatile period for Dodla Dairy’s stock, which closed at approximately US$13.70 per share on the National Stock Exchange.
This decline aligns with broader market trends, where many stocks have faced downward pressure. The company’s stock is now trading below its 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day moving averages, signalling a bearish trend in its price action.
Earlier this month, the stock fell below its 200-day moving average of US$14.03, a technical indicator often viewed as a negative signal by investors.
