HPCL reported a stellar Q1 FY26 with Profit After Tax surging 1128% year-on-year to ₹4,371 crore (from ₹356 crore in Q1 FY25), while Consolidated PAT jumped to ₹4,111 crore from ₹634 crore. Revenue from Operations was broadly flat at ₹1,20,135 crore, and Gross Refining Margin (GRM) declined to US$3.08 per barrel from US$5.03 per barrel, indicating margin pressure despite strong volumes. Operational performance was robust: refinery throughput rose 15.6% to 6.66 MMT at 109% utilisation, and market sales hit a record 13.04 MMT, up 3.2% YoY. The company spent ₹2,860 crore on capex, with the Barmer Refinery & Petrochemical Project reaching 88% completion and the Visakh Residue Upgradation Facility nearing commissioning. HPCL also launched 'Project Samriddhi', an EBITDA improvement programme targeting a margin uplift of US$0.50 per barrel, alongside expansions in CBG, renewables, and lubricants exports to Indonesia.
The blockbuster 1128% PAT growth is likely to drive a strong positive reaction in the stock, though investors should note that GRM compression signals softer refining margins. Strong volume growth, near-complete mega-projects, and the new profitability programme support a constructive medium-term outlook.
