Hindalco Industries, the flagship metal company of the Aditya Birla Group, has released its financial results for the quarter ending December 31, 2025 (Q3 FY26), showing a substantial recovery in profitability. The company reported a consolidated Net Profit of 2,049 crore, representing a 45% increase compared to the previous year. This surge in profit comes on the back of resilient operational performance across its global and domestic businesses. Consolidated Revenue for the quarter rose by 14% year-on-year to reach 66,521 crore. The company's consolidated EBITDA stood at 8,762 crore, a 6% increase from the same period last year. In the Indian market, Hindalco’s operations delivered significant growth. The India Business saw its revenue climb 21% to 29,858 crore, while its Net Profit jumped 24% to 3,581 crore. The Copper segment was a standout contributor to the top line, with revenue growing 33% to 18,233 crore, driven by robust domestic demand and higher volumes. Novelis, Hindalco’s U.S.-based subsidiary and the global leader in aluminum rolling and recycling, reported revenue of $36.6 billion for the quarter, up 9%. Despite global macro-economic pressures and higher scrap costs, Novelis maintained a steady performance with an Adjusted EBITDA of $3.1 billion, excluding one-time impacts. As of February 12, 2026, Hindalco’s stock is trading at approximately 961.80 on the National Stock Exchange. The company’s market capitalization remains strong at roughly 2,17,015 crore. Over the last year, the share price has seen a significant appreciation of 62.11%, reflecting investor confidence in its strategic growth projects and cost leadership. The global aluminum market continues to face a complex environment. On the London Metal Exchange (LME), aluminum prices have shown volatility, recently trading in the 2,800 to 2,900 USD per tonne range. Supply constraints in China and high energy costs in Europe are expected to keep prices elevated, with some analysts forecasting a test of the 3,000 USD mark in the near term. Hindalco remains focused on its expansion strategy, with key projects in alumina refining, aluminum smelting, and copper expansion on track. The company’s Net Debt to EBITDA ratio remains disciplined at 1.33x, providing a solid foundation for future capital expenditure and sustainability initiatives.
