NBCC (India) Limited, the state-owned Navratna enterprise, has reported a stellar performance for the fourth quarter of the 2025-26 financial year.

Financial Highlights: A Robust Close to FY26
The financial results reflect a period of focused growth for the public sector giant. For the full financial year 2025-26, the company’s net profit climbed to ₹720.03 crore, up from ₹541.13 crore in the preceding fiscal. The total income for the full year also saw an upward trajectory, rising to ₹13,195.88 crore, compared to ₹12,272.99 crore in 2024-25. While the total income for the fourth quarter stood at ₹4,618.59 crore, the marked improvement in bottom-line profitability underscores the company’s ability to optimize project execution despite minor fluctuations in top-line revenue.
Segment-Wise Performance Breakdown
The performance of NBCC’s diverse business segments presents a multifaceted picture:
Project Management Consultancy (PMC): This core segment remains the primary engine of growth, recording a revenue of ₹4,356.79 crore, a 2.14% increase compared to the same period last year.
Real Estate & EPC: While the PMC segment showed resilience, the real estate division and the Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) sector faced some headwinds during the quarter, with revenues seeing a year-on-year decline.
Unallocated Revenue: The unallocated segment witnessed a significant boost, surging by approximately 230% compared to the previous year’s corresponding quarter.

This payout is subject to approval by shareholders at the company’s upcoming Annual General Meeting (AGM). The dividend, once declared, will be paid within the mandated 30-day window.
