Balkrishna Industries dividend: record date and ex-date

The record date is the day the company checks its register to see who is entitled to the dividend. NSE corporate action data lists the ex-dividend date as 11 November 2026 as well, so a buyer must hold shares before that date’s trading to be eligible. Shares bought on or after the ex-date do not qualify.

Why profit grew slower than revenue

The filing is a results statement, not a commentary, so it does not give reasons. The numbers show that costs rose with sales: cost of materials consumed was Rs 1,968 crore against Rs 1,108 crore, and finance costs roughly doubled. Depreciation rose to Rs 216 crore from Rs 190 crore.

Against the June 2026 quarter, standalone profit fell from Rs 432.1 crore to Rs 291.1 crore, while revenue was slightly higher at Rs 3,490.5 crore versus Rs 3,444.7 crore. The statement shows no exceptional items.

What to watch next

In our view, input costs and borrowing costs are the items to track, since they absorbed most of the revenue growth this quarter. Read more in our results news or see other dividend stories such as the Concor dividend record date.
