The stock of Hindalco Industries Ltd., the flagship company of the Aditya Birla Group, rallied after the company released its July-September quarter results, boosting investor sentiment. This positive momentum was reflected in the broader market, as Hindalco’s performance contributed to the gains of the Nifty 50.
For the quarter ended September 30, Hindalco reported a multifold increase in consolidated profit after tax (PAT) to Rs 3,417 crore.
The results were driven by an exceptional performance by Novelis and the India business, which was supported by favorable macroeconomics, a strategic product mix, higher volumes, and operational stability.
Hindalco Industries reported a consolidated PAT of Rs 387 crore in the previous fiscal year, according to a BSE filing. According to the filing, its consolidated revenue from operations increased to Rs 47,665 crore in July-September 2021, up from Rs 31,237 crore in 2020 and as of today’s date, this is Hindalco Industries share price.
The company stated in a statement, “Hindalco Industries reported its highest net profit in Q2 FY22, outperforming all previous quarterly results. The company’s consolidated PAT increased 783% year on year to Rs 3,417 crore, a nearly nine-fold increase.”
According to the statement, Novelis continued to report a high quarterly Ebitda as a result of an increase in demand for innovative and sustainable aluminum products, high recycled contents, and outstanding operational performance.
This is despite the challenges in the automotive sector caused by a global semiconductor chip shortage, according to the report.
“Our record-breaking performance this quarter is an affirmation of our fully integrated business model, which powers our performance in both upstream and downstream markets,” said Hindalco Industries Managing Director Satish Pai. Pai went on to say that Hindalco had outstanding results in all business segments. “The Indian aluminum business set a near-global industry record by achieving an Ebitda margin of 42%,” he said.
In the second quarter, the copper business achieved its highest-ever quarterly sales, with both smelters operating at full capacity to meet the robust market demand.
Novelis achieved a record Ebitda per tonne once again, owing to higher volumes and favorable metal prices, he said.
“Our product-rich portfolio strategy continues to produce results in a variety of market scenarios.” It motivates us to continue expanding our downstream asset base and market footprint.
“The recent Ryker copper rod unit acquisition is consistent with our downstream Capex (capital expenditure) plans, which we announced earlier this year.” We also continue to advance our ESG (environment, social, and governance) agenda and goals in order to meet our sustainability vision of net neutrality, water positivity, zero discharge, and other initiatives,” he added.
According to the company, the record results were driven by an outstanding performance by Novelis as well as the India business, as well as a sharp recovery in all relevant markets, improved macros, and higher volumes.

Despite the challenges posed by Covid-19, semi-conductor shortages causing production disruptions, commodity pricing pressures, and fuel price increases, Minda Industries delivered another stellar performance, according to management.

“Additionally, with our engine-agnostic portfolio supporting regulatory developments in the country toward electric vehicle (EV) adoption, we firmly believe we are poised to capitalize on these factors and drive long-term growth.” It added.

During the quarter, the company experienced strong volume growth, owing primarily to the economy’s opening up as a result of a reduction in COVID 19 cases and the removal of lockdown restrictions in the majority of geographies.
The company expanded its retail presence in India by opening 12 new EBOs during Q2FY22, bringing the total number of EBOs in India to 300 across 20 states and four union territories. In addition to focusing on retail network expansion, the company accelerated its digital and omnichannel channels during the quarter.
Meanwhile, the board of directors has authorized the formation of a wholly-owned subsidiary of the company. The incorporation of the wholly-owned subsidiary will capitalize on the growth opportunities in the “Home Textiles” category, specifically Rugs and Mink Blanket Fabric, and will assist the company in becoming more agile and customer-focused.
Under the umbrella brand “Monte Carlo,” Monte Carlo is a leading branded apparel company that offers a comprehensive range of woolens, cotton, cotton blended, knitted, and woven apparel for Men, Women, and Children.
