For the entire 2020-21, the company posted a consolidated net profit of 4,857 crore, down 7 per cent compared to 5,212 crore in 2019-20.

The company's total revenue from operations declined to 27,741.08 crore in the last fiscal as against 29,918.65 crore in 2019-20.

Bajaj said it has sold a total of 39,72,914 units in FY21 as compared with 46,15,212 units in FY20, a drop of 14 per cent.

The company noted that the full-year numbers were not comparable as the first quarter of FY21 was an absolute washout due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The two-wheeler maker said its board has also approved a dividend of 140 per equity share (1,400 per cent) subject to the approval of shareholders.

Total payout towards dividend would amount to 4,051 crore, it added.
