Hindustan Unilever Ltd Sees Steady Growth in Q1 with Strategic Investments

FMCG giant Hindustan Unilever Ltd (HUL) announced a 5.97% uptick in its consolidated net profit, reaching Rs 2,768 crore for Q1 ending June 2025. This figure stands against Rs 2,612 crore recorded in the same quarter last year, as per the company's regulatory filing.

Revenue from product sales climbed to Rs 16,296 crore, marking a 5.15% increase fueled by volume expansion. However, the company's EBITDA margin fell by 130 bps year-on-year to 22.8%, attributed to heightened investments in the business.

Consequently, shares showed an upward trend, trading at Rs 2,517.60 on the BSE, up 3.31%.
