Awaiting price reaction for this filing.
Hindustan Zinc has published its Q1 FY26 (quarter ended June 30, 2025) unaudited financial results in newspapers (Financial Express, Rajasthan Patrika, and Dainik Bhaskar) as required by SEBI listing rules. Consolidated revenue from operations came in at ₹7,771 crore, down from ₹8,130 crore in Q1 FY25. Net profit after tax stood at ₹2,234 crore versus ₹2,345 crore year-on-year, with EPS at ₹5.29 (vs ₹5.55). On the operational side, the company reported its highest-ever Q1 mined metal production, record production at its alloys unit, and its lowest-ever Q1 cost of production at US$ 1,010 per tonne. It also secured two critical mineral blocks — potash in Rajasthan and rare earth elements (REEs) in Uttar Pradesh. Net worth stood at ₹11,345 crore, while the debt-to-equity ratio rose to 1.19 from 0.84 a year earlier.
Results are a mixed bag for shareholders — top-line and bottom-line both slipped around 4-5% YoY, but operational metrics (record production, lowest-ever costs) and the strategic win of securing critical mineral blocks are positives. The higher debt-equity ratio and the YoY profit decline are mild negatives; the stock reaction will likely hinge on whether investors focus on operational strengths or earnings softness.
