On the reaction day the stock moved 1.6 pts less than Nifty Midcap 150 and 0.9 pts less than its Refineries & Marketing peers, over the same two closes: a difference in percentage points, not a measure of what the filing did.
Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
HPCL's board approved audited standalone and consolidated financial results for FY25 (year ended March 31, 2025) with an unmodified auditor opinion. Total income for FY25 rose marginally to Rs. 4,68,762 crore (standalone) from Rs. 4,64,020 crore in FY24, a growth of about 1%. However, net profit fell sharply to Rs. 7,365 crore from Rs. 14,694 crore in FY24, a drop of nearly 50%, primarily due to lower refining margins (GRM dropped to $5.74/BBL from $9.08/BBL) and a massive jump in the LPG negative buffer to Rs. 10,894.53 crore (from Rs. 98.70 crore). The board recommended a final dividend of Rs. 10.50 per share (face value Rs. 10) with August 14, 2025 as the record date. The board also appointed M/s. Upendra Shukla & Associates as secretarial auditor for three years from FY26, subject to shareholder approval. EPS for prior periods was restated following a 1:2 bonus issue done in Q1 FY25.
Sharp ~50% YoY drop in net profit and weaker refining margins are likely to weigh negatively on the stock in the near term, though the Rs. 10.50 dividend provides some support. The growing LPG under-recovery buffer remains a key concern for sustained margins.
