On the Q3 results, Mr. Satish Pai, Managing Director, commented, "Hindalco delivered robust consolidated results in the third quarter despite global uncertainties, driven by an excellent performance of its India business. The Aluminium India Upstream business achieved record quarterly EBITDA, with industry-leading margins of 42%. The downstream segment experienced consistent growth posting a 36% increase in EBITDA. The Copper business delivered a robust 18% growth in EBITDA. The business marked a significant milestone by achieving the ‘Copper Mark- JDDS’ for its responsible and sustainable production practices. Novelis continues to focus on operational and cost efficiency initiatives in the face of current pressures on scrap pricing.
During the quarter we secured critical resources for our India upstream business, enhancing our global cost leadership. Key growth initiatives, such as the alumina refinery, aluminium smelter expansion, copper smelter expansion and the FRP project, remain on track. Our strong balance sheet positions us well for the next phase of transformative growth.
Our holistic ESG approach continues to gain global recognition. Hindalco is the only company to achieve a Top 1% ranking in the S&P Global Sustainability Yearbook 2025 with the highest ESG score in the aluminium sector.”

Source: Hindalco's Financial Results for Q3 FY25 submitted to BSE.
Hindalco Industries Ltd. is set to announce its Q3 FY25 (October-December 2024) financial results on 13 February 2025. Analysts anticipate a substantial increase in profit and revenue, driven by strong aluminium and alumina prices as well as lower power costs in India. However, Novelis' performance may act as a dampener due to lower scrap spreads.
Revenue Growth:
Hindalco is expected to report an 11% year-on-year (YoY) revenue increase, supported by higher aluminium and alumina prices. Revenues are projected to be approximately in line with robust demand and favourable market dynamics in India.
Net Profit (PAT):
Analysts predict a 62% YoY jump in Profit After Tax (PAT), driven by:
Strong aluminium and alumina prices.
Lower power costs boosting Indian operations.
EBITDA Performance:
EBITDA is expected to grow by 28% YoY, attributed to:
Higher metal prices.
Reduced power costs in India.
However, on a quarter-on-quarter (QoQ) basis, both EBITDA and margins are likely to decline due to:
Lower EBITDA at Novelis, impacted by reduced scrap spreads.
Margins Outlook:
While EBITDA margins are expected to improve on a YoY basis, they may face slight pressure QoQ due to Novelis' challenges.
Novelis' performance is anticipated to weigh on overall margins, despite strong profitability from Indian operations.
The estimates are based on analysts' insights from the Economic Times.
