HUL made a profit of Rs 2,475 crore in the March quarter, which is 3.4% less than the Rs 2,561 crore it made in the previous quarter. However, its revenue from business activities went up to Rs 15,670 crore, compared to Rs 15,210 crore in the October-December quarter of the financial year 2025.
Rohit Jawa, CEO and Managing Director, HUL commented, “In FY’25, our turnover surpassed Rs. 60,000 Crores, with an Underlying Sales Growth of 2% and an EPS growth of 5%. While absolute volume tonnage grew in mid-single digit, it was partially offset by a negative mix. We delivered a competitive performance, further strengthening our market leadership during the year. This year marked a step up in our portfolio transformation with increased innovation in high-growth spaces, amplified investments in channels of the future, acquisition of Minimalist, divestment of Pureit, and the decision to demerge Ice Cream business. Looking ahead, we anticipate demand conditions to gradually improve over the next fiscal year. We are committed to the strategic objective of unlocking a billion aspirations supported by our robust business fundamentals, to continue winning competitively.”
