Vedanta reported a remarkable 154% rise in consolidated net profit to \u20b93,483 crore for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 (Q4FY25), driven by higher aluminium and zinc volumes coupled with the company\u2019s cost optimisation measures. The mining conglomerate had posted a much lower profit of \u20b91,369 crore in the same quarter the previous year. This sharp profit surge highlights the resilient performance across key segments, despite the global commodity inflation in key raw materials.<\/p>\n

Despite this top-line growth, the company\u2019s total expenses rose to \u20b934,560 crore from \u20b931,899 crore in the corresponding period of the previous year, largely due to commodity inflation in raw materials such as oil and metals.<\/p>\n

Vedanta\u2019s stock reacted mildly to the earnings announcement, with shares dropping 0.13% to \u20b9415.75 on the NSE. Despite the impressive profit growth, market participants appear to be factoring in the volatility and risks associated with commodity price fluctuations and operational challenges across various segments. This stock movement suggests that the market may be awaiting more clarity on the company\u2019s future earnings potential and the trajectory of its de-merger plans.<\/p>\n

Vedanta\u2019s zinc, lead, and silver business reported a 21% YoY rise in revenue to \u20b98,805 crore for Q4FY25, driven by strong domestic demand and a reduction in production costs. EBITDA from this segment surged 33% YoY to \u20b94,811 crore, reinforcing the company’s position as a key player in the global zinc market.<\/p>\n
The aluminium business saw a 29% YoY increase in revenue, reaching \u20b915,967 crore in Q4FY25, primarily due to higher volumes and improved product pricing. This performance reflects Vedanta’s ongoing commitment to expanding its aluminium capacity, especially in the face of rising global demand for lighter materials in industrial applications.<\/p>\n
On the downside, iron ore revenue declined by 38% YoY in Q4FY25, reflecting lower demand and pricing pressure in the global iron ore market.<\/p>\n
Vedanta\u2019s oil and gas unit posted a 21% YoY decline in revenue to \u20b92,658 crore, with EBITDA falling 20% YoY to \u20b91,212 crore. This was driven by lower oil discoveries and a decline in daily production. Average daily gross operated production dropped by 18% YoY, further challenging the segment’s profitability.<\/p>\n

Zinc, Lead & Silver: 21% revenue rise, 33% EBITDA growth.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
