Hindustan Zinc Ltd has reported a 32 per cent year-on-year decline in consolidated net profit to Rs 18.8 billion for the quarter ended June 2025, compared with Rs 27.8 billion in the same period last year. Consolidated revenue from operations fell 16 per cent to Rs 65.5 billion from Rs 77.9 billion.
The company said the decline was primarily due to lower zinc, lead, and silver prices globally, partially offset by higher volumes and cost efficiencies. EBITDA stood at Rs 31.2 billion, down 27 per cent year-on-year, with margins affected by weaker realisations.
Hindustan Zinc continued its focus on operational excellence, mine expansion projects, and sustainability initiatives to strengthen its long-term growth prospects. The company said it remains committed to delivering value to stakeholders despite commodity price volatility.
