Hindalco delivered a record-breaking Q4 FY25 with consolidated EBITDA up 24% YoY to INR 9,774 crore and PAT up 66% YoY to INR 5,284 crore. India aluminum upstream EBITDA hit a record INR 4,838 crore with industry-best margins of 47%, driven by lower input costs and favorable macros. Novelis EBITDA fell 8% YoY to $473 million due to tighter scrap spreads and tariff impacts, but management expects improvement as USMCA 2.0 progresses. Downstream aluminum EBITDA also hit a record INR 219 crore, up 52% YoY, supported by product mix improvement. Key growth drivers include the Aditya FRP project commissioning, copper IGT plant, and battery enclosure ramp-up. Risks include sustained scrap cost pressure at Novelis and global trade policy uncertainty.
हिंडाल्को ने वित्त वर्ष 2025 की चौथी तिमाही में शानदार प्रदर्शन किया। कंपनी की कमाई (EBITDA) पिछले साल से 24% बढ़कर 9,774 करोड़ रुपये हो गई। मुनाफा (PAT) 66% बढ़कर 5,284 करोड़ रुपये रहा। भारत में एल्युमीनियम बनाने के कारोबार (अपस्ट्रीम) ने 4,838 करोड़ रुपये का रिकॉर्ड मुनाफा कमाया, जिसमें 47% का बेहतरीन मार्जिन रहा। इसकी वजह कम लागत और अनुकूल बाजार स्थितियां थीं। नोवेलिस (विदेशी कारोबार) का मुनाफा 8% घटकर 473 मिलियन डॉलर रहा, क्योंकि स्क्रैप की कीमतें बढ़ीं और टैरिफ का असर पड़ा। लेकिन कंपनी को उम्मीद है कि यह जल्द सुधरेगा। डाउनस्ट्रीम एल्युमीनियम कारोबार ने 219 करोड़ रुपये का रिकॉर्ड मुनाफा कमाया, जो 52% ज्यादा है। आगे बढ़ने के लिए नई परियोजनाएं (जैसे आदित्य FRP और कॉपर IGT प्लांट) मदद करेंगी। जोखिम में नोवेलिस में स्क्रैप की बढ़ती लागत और वैश्विक व्यापार नीतियों में अनिश्चितता शामिल है।

DROPPED
Copper EBITDA to moderate to ~INR 600 crore per quarter
Management expects quarterly copper EBITDA to be around INR 600 crore next year, down from current levels due to lower TC/RCs.
DROPPED
Novelis Q4 volumes to be meaningfully higher, similar to Q2 levels
Q4 volumes expected to be around Q2 levels (likely ~950 KT), driven by operating leverage and repriced beverage can contracts.
NEW RISK
Novelis tariff impact and scrap cost pressure
Novelis faces a $40 million per quarter net negative impact from U.S. tariffs and elevated scrap spreads, with uncertainty around USMCA 2.0 timing.
NEW RISK
Global trade policy uncertainty
U.S. tariff measures and trade tensions could slow global GDP growth, impacting aluminum demand and pricing.
NEW RISK
Alumina price volatility
Alumina prices remain volatile due to Guinea supply risks; management assumes $350-$400/ton range for planning.
RISK GONE
Sustained high scrap prices impacting Novelis margins
High aluminum scrap prices have compressed Novelis EBITDA per ton; management expects scrap prices to peak but structural headwinds remain.
RISK GONE
US tariffs on aluminum imports may not be exempted
Novelis faces uncertainty over tariff exemptions; management is confident but acknowledges risk if exemptions are not granted.
RISK GONE
Execution risk from large capex pipeline
Multiple large projects in India and Novelis simultaneously could strain execution; management is focused but history shows risks.

Novelis CapEx for FY25 is expected at the lower end of the $1.8-2.1 billion range, around $1.8 billion.
