The strong profit was driven by robust revenue growth and improvement in operating margins during the quarter.
Revenue rose 36.3% year-on-year to ₹34,244 crore compared with ₹25,116 crore a year ago, while EBITDA increased 72% to ₹5,145 crore from ₹2,999 crore.
The EBITDA margin expanded to 15% from 12% in the year-ago period, supporting the sharp increase in profitability.
The board has recommended a final dividend of ₹5 per equity share of ₹1 each for the financial year ended March 31, 2026, subject to shareholder approval at the ensuing annual general meeting. The company has fixed Friday, July 10, 2026, as the record date for payment of the final dividend.
During the quarter, Hindalco decided to relinquish mining operations and surrender one of its coal mines after production was halted due to the non-availability of land required for contiguous mining operations. Following the decision, the company recognised an impairment loss of ₹161 crore in its financial statements.
Commenting on the results, Satish Pai, Managing Director of Hindalco Industries Limited, said the company delivered strong results led by an outstanding performance from its India business, while Novelis remains on track to restart the Oswego plant and commission the Bay Minette facility.
He said consolidated revenue, EBITDA and profit after tax before one-time exceptional items touched all-time highs in both the fourth quarter and the full year.
Pai said Hindalco’s India business delivered record performance across its aluminium upstream and downstream businesses and the copper segment, with full-year EBITDA reaching a historic high of ₹22,671 crore.
He added that the company is accelerating expansion projects, including doubling capacities in its copper business and at Aditya Aluminium, supported by a five-year EBITDA CAGR of over 32%.
