According to the audited financial results approved by the Board of Directors at its meeting held on Wednesday, NALCO achieved a historic financial milestone, setting a new benchmark with a record net profit of Rs.5,325 crore, a robust year-on-year (YoY) increase of 158 percent.
The company also reported its highest-ever revenue from operations at Rs.16,788 crore for FY25.
The net profit for the fourth quarter ended March 2025 saw a significant surge, reaching Rs.2,078 crore, compared to Rs.1016 crore in the same period last year — an increase of approximately 105 percent. Revenue from operations during the quarter stood at Rs.5,268 crore, compared to Rs.3,579 crore in the corresponding quarter of the previous year.
Driven by strong aluminium and alumina prices, streamlined operations, improved efficiency, and momentum in expansion projects, NALCO continued on a solid growth trajectory.
This was supported by robust performance across all business units and improved profit margins.
In FY25, the company achieved its highest-ever bauxite excavation at 76.48 lakh tonnes and the highest-ever domestic metal sales at 4.55 lakh tonnes.
Appreciating NALCO’s stellar performance, CMD Brijendra Pratap Singh stated that the company’s growth gained significant momentum in the third and fourth quarters of FY25, which is clearly reflected in its robust financial performance and strong revenue growth.
"Enhancing efficiency, optimizing costs, and the unwavering commitment of our employees have played key roles in enabling NALCO to maintain competitive pricing in a dynamic market environment," he said.
Furthermore, NALCO’s strategic focus on process improvements has fostered a motivated, performance-driven workforce, Singh added.
With aluminium prices firming up and demand steadily increasing, NALCO is well-positioned to sustain its growth trajectory.
Looking ahead, Singh emphasized the company’s commitment to long-term sustainable growth through strategic expansions.
These include the 5th Stream expansion of the Alumina Refinery, operationalization of the Pottangi Bauxite Mines, and the proposed expansion of the existing Smelter Plant and Captive Power Plant.
These initiatives are set to provide a strong foundation for sustainable and resilient growth, further strengthening NALCO’s position in the global aluminium sector, the CMD concluded.
