Hindalco Industries Q4 Results: Hindalco Industries on Tuesday reported a 66% growth in its March quarter consolidated net profit to ₹5,283 crore versus ₹3,174 crore posted in the year-ago period.
The revenue from operations in Q4FY25 stood at ₹64,890 crore, up nearly 16% from ₹55,994 crore reported in the corresponding quarter of the last financial year.
Consolidated EBITDA for the fourth quarter reached ₹10,296 crore, representing a 43% increase compared to the same quarter last year. This impressive performance was fueled by the Indian operations, aided by favourable macroeconomic conditions and reduced input costs, said the company in an exchange filing.
Further, the company stated that in spite of challenges, Novelis showcased a strong performance with significant shipments in both the fourth quarter and the entire year, driven by high demand for beverage packaging, as stated by the company in a filing to the exchange.
The aluminium division of the company saw a remarkable 78% increase in upstream EBITDA year-on-year, reaching ₹4,838 crore, while the downstream sector experienced a 52% rise from the previous year, totaling ₹219 crore. However, the EBITDA for the Copper segment fell by almost 21% compared to the same quarter last year, amounting to ₹614 crore.
During the quarter, Hindalco successfully reduced its net debt. As of March, the company's net debt was ₹35,332 crore, down from ₹41,818 crore at the end of the December quarter.
Moreover, Hindalco has greenlit the complete acquisition of EMMRL, which holds the lease for the Bandha coal block.
This acquisition has been justified by the company's aim to enhance its upstream capabilities. It also aligns with Hindalco's goal of securing resources to support its aluminium smelting operations.
Additionally, the board of directors has proposed a dividend of ₹5 for each equity share of Re 1/- each for the financial year that concluded on March 31, 2025, pending approval from the shareholders at the upcoming Annual General Meeting of the company.
Hindalco Industries share price today was trading 0.36% higher at ₹660.35 apiece on the BSE following the Q4 results. Hindalco Industries share price opened at ₹666 per share, the stock touched an intraday high of ₹671.05, and an intraday low of 655.55 per share.
Anshul Jain, Head of Research at Lakshmishree Investments said that after a sharp pullback, Hindalco share price is now facing stiff resistance in the 670–673 range, coinciding with weakness in the broader metal index.
The stock is showing signs of profit booking, and a sharp retracement toward the daily swing low of 632 appears likely in the near term. Volume patterns are not encouraging for bulls, indicating a lack of strong buying support. Unless volumes improve, the upmove is unlikely to sustain from current levels.
