Akzo Nobel India Ltd. has announced a one-time special interim dividend of ₹156 per share, marking the highest quarterly payout in its history, as part of its Q1 FY26 earnings announcement. 

The record date for determining eligible shareholders has been set as August 11, 2025, and the dividend will be paid within 30 days.

Q1FY26 Results

Despite the generous payout, Akzo Nobel India posted subdued financial performance for the April–June quarter, with profit after tax declining 21% year-on-year to ₹91 crore. Revenue from operations fell 4% to ₹995.1 crore, while EBIT from operations stood at ₹116.2 crore, also down 21% YoY. EBITDA margins compressed to 13.5%, down from 16.3% in the year-ago period, impacted by tepid retail demand and heightened competitive intensity in the decorative paints market.

The quarter also saw several new product launches under the Dulux brand, including Velvet Touch Eterna Matte in the luxury interior paint category and Weathershield Protect Dustproof Hi-Sheen in exteriors. In industrial coatings, the Interdur range was expanded to serve mid-tier anti-corrosive applications.

On the recognition front, Akzo Nobel received a CSR commendation at the 19th CII-ITC Sustainability Awards and was honored for sustainable packaging innovation with the FIPSA 2025 Responsible Packaging Award.
