The company reported a 67.6% year-on-year rise in net profit to ₹5,033 crore, with revenues up 43.8% to ₹12,692 crore.

Jefferies forecasts a 34% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) in earnings per share (EPS) from FY24 to FY26, with a further 33% YoY increase expected in FY27. HSBC praised Hindustan Zinc's low-cost operations, while Nuvama Institutional Equities noted strong EBITDA performance driven by higher volumes and lower costs.
