Hindustan Zinc caps off near-perfect year on a high
Mint Mumbai
|April 26, 2025
The cash cow of the diversified Vedanta Group delivered ₹3,003 crore in profit during the Jan-Mar quarter
Hindustan Zinc could do nothing wrong in FY25. It mined, smelted and sold as much metal as possible. It cut costs as much as it could. Coupled with favourable prices of zinc and silver, the company ended the fiscal on a record high, giving more returns on capital than any other manufacturing company, as per its chief financial officer (CFO).
The cash cow of the Vedanta Group delivered ₹3,003 crore in profit during the January-March quarter, almost a half more than last year and the best it has ever done. The ₹9,087 crore consolidated top line for the quarter was a fifth more than the same period last year.
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (Ebitda), a profitability metric, improved 32% on-year to ₹4,816 crore. Ebitda margin improved 5 percentage points year-on-year to 53%.
