Vedanta Limited reported a strong financial performance for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 (Q4 FY25), with consolidated profit after tax (PAT) surging 118% year-on-year to ₹4,961 crore, compared to ₹2,275 crore in Q4 FY24. The company achieved its highest-ever quarterly revenue of ₹39,789 crore, up 14% YoY, supported by favorable market pricing, higher production volumes, and efficiency gains.

Consolidated EBITDA for the quarter stood at ₹11,618 crore, marking a 30% YoY growth, while EBITDA margin expanded 465 basis points YoY to 35%, the highest in 12 quarters. The robust performance came on the back of structural cost-saving initiatives and buoyant commodity prices across Vedanta’s core segments including aluminium, zinc, oil & gas, and iron ore.

The company’s net debt stood at ₹53,251 crore as of March 31, 2025, with a significantly improved net debt to EBITDA ratio of 1.2x, down from 1.5x a year earlier. Vedanta also reported a 34% YoY increase in cash and cash equivalents, reaching ₹20,602 crore.

For the full financial year FY25, Vedanta posted a revenue of ₹1,50,725 crore (up 10% YoY) and PAT of ₹20,535 crore, up a staggering 172% YoY. EBITDA for the year reached ₹43,541 crore, its second highest on record, growing 37% YoY.

With strong operational performance across its business verticals and ongoing deleveraging efforts, Vedanta reaffirmed its outlook for growth and capital discipline heading into FY26.

Vedanta Limited delivered a stellar performance in Q4 FY25, with Executive Director Arun Misra attributing the success to the company’s strong operational discipline and cost efficiencies. He highlighted that FY25 was a landmark year, with record annual production volumes in Aluminium and Zinc, alongside substantial cost reductions — including a four-year low cost of production for Zinc India and ex-Alumina Aluminium. Looking ahead, Misra emphasized that FY26 will be a year focused on growth and efficiency, with strategic projects like the Lanjigarh Expansion and Sijimali Bauxite Mine poised to further enhance cost positions. Multiple volume expansion projects slated for completion are expected to bolster Vedanta’s performance in the coming year.

CFO Ajay Goel echoed the optimism, stating that Vedanta delivered its highest-ever quarterly revenue of ₹39,789 crore in Q4, reflecting 14% year-on-year growth. EBITDA also rose by 30% to ₹11,618 crore, with a margin of 35% — the highest in the past 12 quarters. Profit after tax surged 118% YoY to ₹4,961 crore. Goel credited the results to disciplined cost management, operational excellence, and favorable market conditions. He also noted a significant balance sheet improvement, with the company reducing its net debt by $500 million during the quarter, bringing down the leverage ratio to 1.2x and reinforcing its financial strength.
