Hindustan Unilever reported a strong fourth quarter, with profits rising compared to the same period last year.
The company posted a net profit of around ₹3,000 crore for the January–March quarter, showing a growth of about 20–21%. This increase was supported by steady demand for its products and improved performance across categories.
Revenue also grew during the quarter, rising nearly 8% to over ₹16,000 crore. The growth was driven by stable demand in both urban and rural markets, along with better sales volumes.
Along with its results, HUL announced a final dividend of ₹22 per share. This adds to the interim dividend declared earlier, taking the total payout for the year to a strong level.
HUL, which sells everyday products like soaps, detergents, and packaged foods, continues to benefit from its wide range of brands and strong market presence.
However, the company also faced some pressure from rising raw material costs, which affected margins slightly. Despite this, it managed to maintain steady growth through cost control and efficient operations.
