Hindustan Zinc, the zinc smelting and mining subsidiary of Vedanta Limited, reported a consolidated net profit of ₹5,469 crore for the quarter ended June 2026, marking a 145% increase from the ₹2,234 crore recorded in the same period last year.
The sharp improvement in profitability was underpinned by a 72% surge in revenue from operations, which climbed to ₹13,033 crore from ₹7,591 crore in the prior-year quarter.
The earnings release, published during market hours on Friday, July 24, highlights the continued operational momentum of the Indian metals sector.
The significant year-on-year expansion in both top and bottom lines suggests that Hindustan Zinc is benefiting from favorable pricing dynamics and increased production volumes.
As a key player in the global zinc supply chain, the company’s performance is closely watched by investors tracking commodity demand in emerging markets.
This financial result follows recent reports that Hindustan Zinc achieved record first-quarter mined metal output, marking the fifth consecutive year the company has set new production benchmarks.
