HINDALCO

Hindalco Industries Ltd posted its highest-ever quarterly consolidated net profit of Rs 7,013 crore for the April–June quarter of FY27, marking a 75 percent year-on-year increase from Rs 4,004 crore. The strong earnings were supported by robust performance across all of the company's business segments. Consolidated revenue climbed 32 percent year-on-year to a record Rs 84,825 crore, while EBITDA surged 73 percent to an all-time quarterly high of Rs 14,989 crore. Following the announcement of its Q1 FY27 results, Hindalco's shares extended their gains, rising 1.85 percent to Rs 1,046 in afternoon trading on Friday, August 7. The Aditya Birla Group's metals flagship said its India operations continued to deliver strong momentum during the quarter. At the same time, Novelis reported improved profitability, supported by the restart of production at its Oswego plant and continued gains from its cost-optimisation initiatives. Hindalco also reported record quarterly EBITDA across all its major businesses—Aluminium Upstream, Aluminium Downstream, Copper and Novelis. The company attributed its performance to favourable macroeconomic conditions, enhanced resource security, premium product innovation and strong operational execution. As of June 30, 2026, Hindalco's consolidated net debt-to-EBITDA ratio stood at 1.95 times, compared with 1.02 times a year earlier. The company said its strategic investment pipeline remains strong, with expansion projects underway across both upstream and downstream operations. These include capacity additions in alumina, aluminium and copper, alongside continued investments to strengthen its value-added downstream business.
