Realty major DLF [DLF] has declared a dividend of ₹8 per share for FY26 shareholders, even as its Q4 consolidated net profit saw a marginal decline and revenue fell significantly due to lower project recognition. Strong operational metrics underscore the company's underlying health.
New Delhi: Leading real estate developer DLF Ltd. [DLF] has reported its financial results for the fourth quarter and full fiscal year ending March 31, 2024, presenting a mixed picture of quarterly performance alongside robust annual growth and a noteworthy dividend announcement.
