FMCG Stock To Consider Bonus Shares After 4 Years; Q1 Results Out

The small-cap FMCG company GRM Overseas Limited has announced that, subject to necessary approvals, the Board of Directors of the Company will meet on Wednesday, August 20, 2025, to discuss and approve the proposal for the issuance of bonus shares.
"In view of the above event, the trading window for dealing in securities of the Company shall remain closed for all the designated persons from 13th August, 2025 to 22nd August, 2025 (both days inclusive)," said GRM Overseas in a stock exchange filing.

After four years, the corporation is taking action on the bonus shares since GRM Overseas Ltd. has only granted one bonus since July 15, 2021. With an ex-date of July 15, 2021, GRM Overseas Ltd. last announced a bonus in the ratio of 2:1.

Meanwhile, GRM Overseas Limited has also announced the unaudited financial results for the quarter ended June 30,2025. The company's consolidated sales dropped from Rs 375.3 crore in Q1FY25 to Rs 334.4 crore in Q1FY26. However, due to enhanced operational efficiency, EBITDA jumped from Rs 28.6 crore to Rs 31.6 crore, and the EBITDA margin climbed significantly from 7.6% to 9.5%. Additionally, net profit increased slightly from Rs 18 crore in the year-ago quarter to Rs 19.1 crore during the quarter under review, and the PAT margin jumped to 5.7% from 4.8% in the same period the previous year.

Mr. Atul Garg, Managing Director, said: "We have reported a positive performance in terms of margins and profitability, despite facing some short-term hiccups in the topline with respect to global geopolitical issues. We remain focussed on expanding our product portfolio, supported by strengthening our brand visibility and deepening distribution network."

"On the international front, GRM has continued to maintain its strong position in the Basmati Rice export market, with a solid base in the MENA region. We are also on the verge of setting up a subsidiary in Dubai, to drive our exports business. During the quarter, we have started supplying branded rice to twelve countries, which has been gaining popularity due to the mass appeal of Salman Khan, our brand ambassador. Further, we are actively engaging with new distribution partners and modern-trade retailers to unlock fresh opportunities across geographies and also expanding footprints in the major markets like Europe, Africa and other new territories," he added.

"In our India business, while the Rice, Atta & Value-added products continued the growth momentum, we intentionally reduced our focus in Edible Oil category due to the tariff uncertainties and market volatilities. However, we are confident to regain the lost ground in the ensuing quarters, backed by the launch of new-age products under Faashta (Ready-to-Cook brand), along with existing products including our flagship brand 10X Zarda King and 10X Classic Atta," he stated.

"As we move forward in FY26, we remain focused on transforming GRM into a diversified, innovation-led FMCG enterprise. The strategic initiatives implemented over the past year are positioning us to capture significant market share in both domestic and global markets, and we are confident of delivering sustainable growth in the quarters ahead," Mr. Atul Garg commented further.

One of India's leading exporters of Basmati rice is GRM. As a result of expanding its rice business into over 38 nations, GRM is now India's third-largest rice exporter.
