Concor board also announced an interim dividend of 75 per cent (Rs7.50 per share of face value Rs10) to its shareholders, amounting to Rs97.49 crore. This is the highest interim dividend announced by Concor so far.

Operating revenue during the third quarter (October-December 2010) rose 9.8 per cent year-on-year to Rs971.13 crore against Rs884.45 crore during the same period of the previous financial year. Operating income during the third quarter stood at Rs86.68 crore.

Concor is also planning to invest in logistics parks to effectively exploit recent railway policy announcement granting entry to private operators in bulk movement and bulk handling.
