HFCL, a telecom gear manufacturer headquartered in New Delhi, reported a record consolidated profit of ₹184.45 crore for the fourth quarter ending March 31, 2026. This marks a remarkable recovery from a loss of ₹83.3 crore in the same quarter the previous year. The profit increase is attributed to a surge in overseas business, enhanced product offerings, and improved operational efficiencies. Consolidated revenue from operations more than doubled to ₹1,824.12 crore, compared to around ₹801 crore in the March 2025 quarter. Additionally, HFCL's order book reached an all-time high of ₹21,206 crore, more than double the ₹9,967 crore recorded at the end of FY25. For the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, HFCL's consolidated profit jumped over 90% to ₹329.44 crore, with annual revenue rising by about 22% to ₹4,949.27 crore. Looking ahead, HFCL is expanding its manufacturing capabilities, particularly in data centre interconnect solutions, and has plans to establish a preform manufacturing facility with an investment of approximately ₹580 crore. The company is also venturing into the defence sector, focusing on aerospace and ammunition production, with a confirmed export-oriented order book of around ₹1,930 crore.
