HUL Q1 preview: Revenue expected to rise, profit likely to stay muted
Hindustan Unilever (HUL), the maker of popular brands such as Horlicks, Dove, and Lifebuoy, is set to announce its April–June 2025 (Q1FY26) earnings today. Analysts expect the company's performance in the quarter to be weighed down by an unfavourable product mix, rising input costs, and muted seasonal demand, which may have softened overall growth.
Revenue for the quarter is projected to grow 4.8 per cent year-on-year to ₹16,081 crore, up from ₹15,339 crore. Compared to the previous quarter, revenue is expected to rise 6 per cent, supported by healthy underlying volume growth (UVG).
PB Fintech Q1 preview: Profit likely to surge, revenue expected to dip
PB Fintech, the parent company of Policybazaar, is scheduled to announce its April–June 2025 (Q1FY26) results on Thursday. Analysts polled by Business Standard expect the company's net profit to soar 431.6 per cent year-on-year to ₹101 crore, compared to ₹19 crore in the same quarter last year.
Revenue for the quarter is estimated to grow 35 per cent year-on-year to ₹1,364 crore, up from ₹1,010.5 crore. On a quarter-on-quarter basis, however, it is likely to dip 9.6 per cent from ₹1,507.9 crore.

Broader markets underperformed, with the Nifty MidCap index slipping 0.07 per cent and the Nifty SmallCap index declining 0.52 per cent. Among sectoral indices, Nifty IT rose 0.31 per cent, Nifty FMCG 0.24 per cent, and Nifty Pharma closed marginally higher. On the downside, Nifty Realty dropped 0.96 per cent and Nifty Auto fell 0.6 per cent.
Market overview for July 31

‘No formal talks on F-35 jets yet': India clarifies after Trump tariff announcement
The Indian government on Friday clarified that there have been no formal discussions yet on the potential sale of F-35 fighter jets to India, despite a reference in the India-US joint statement earlier this year. In a written response to a question in the Lok Sabha, Minister of State for External Affairs Kirti Vardhan Singh said: 'The US will undertake a review of its policy on releasing fifth-generation fighters (such as the F-35) and undersea systems to India. No formal discussions have been held as yet on this issue.' This statement comes in the backdrop of PM Narendra Modi's February visit to US, during which the two sides elevated defence and strategic cooperation, but without finalising key hardware acquisitions like the F-35. The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) was also asked whether any proposal had been made by the US regarding the F-35, and about the role of American diplomats in reducing tensions between India and Pakistan in the aftermath of the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack. Singh noted that diplomatic conversations were held with various countries, including the US, between April 22 and May 10. 'All our interlocutors were given a common message that India's approach was focused, measured and non-escalatory,' Singh said. He added that on May 9, India had conveyed its position clearly to US Vice President J D Vance. 'With specific reference to the United States, it was conveyed to Vice President J D Vance on May 9 that India would appropriately respond if Pakistan launched a major attack.' Singh clarified that the decision to cease military action was taken bilaterally between India and Pakistan. 'The discussion to cease military action took place directly between India and Pakistan through the existing channels of communication between the two-armed forces, and it was initiated at Pakistan's request.' Responding to a question on third-party mediation, Singh reiterated New Delhi's long-standing policy: 'As regards any proposal for third-party mediation, our longstanding position remains that any outstanding issue with Pakistan will be discussed only bilaterally. This has been made clear to all nations, including by the Prime Minister to the US President.' He emphasised that the India-US Comprehensive Global Strategic Partnership is underpinned by mutual trust and respect for sovereignty: 'The India-US Comprehensive Global Strategic Partnership is anchored in mutual trust, shared interests, goodwill and robust engagement between our citizens. The partnership has also benefited from growing strategic convergence and cooperation.' Singh also reaffirmed that India remains committed to strategic autonomy despite deepening ties with Washington. 'The Government of India closely evaluates all its external partnerships, including those in the defence and strategic domains, through the prism of India's national interest and commitment to strategic autonomy.'

Datanomics: Market access vs mass survival in unequal India-US fields
The US move on tariff is seen as its pressure tactics on forcing New Delhi to sign a bilateral trade agreement (BTA) with Washington Shikha Chaturvedi Listen to This Article United States (US) President Donald Trump announced imports from India would face a 25 per cent tariff over the existing most-favoured-nation rates, citing India's high trade barriers and 'strenuous and obnoxious' non-monetary restrictions. This move is seen as a pressure tactic to force India into signing a bilateral trade agreement (BTA). However, one of the major bones of contention in the BTA negotiations is agriculture. The US is demanding greater access to Indian agri markets. In the US, farmers receive direct income payments. In India, support is largely through subsidised inputs, public procurement, and food distribution schemes — offering basic

Leather, textile, shrimp exports to be hit hard by 25% US tariff: Experts
Domestic export sectors such as leather, footwear, textiles and shrimp will be hit hard by the imposition of the 25 per cent tariff by the US, industry experts say. "Quick estimates suggest that India's goods exports in FY 2026 may come down by 30 per cent from $ 86.5 billion in FY 2025 to $60.6 billion in FY 2026," GTRI Founder Ajay Srivastava said. The duty, announced this week, will come into force from August 7 (9.30 am IST). These will be over and above the exiting standard import duty in the US. The 25 per cent tariff will replace the existing 10 per cent baseline tariff. The modified tariff is one per cent less than the 26 per cent levy announced by President Donald Trump on April 2. A White House executive order mentions that tariffs may be reduced once countries make a deal with the US. The executive order also clarifies that goods in transit until October 5, 12:01 am eastern daylight time (EDT), or 09:30 am IST, will be subject to a 10 per cent tariff, provided that such goods have entered into transit before August 7 12:01 am EDT. The sectors, which would bear the brunt of 25 per cent duty include textiles/ clothing (10.3 billion), gems and jewellery (12 billion), shrimp ($ 2.24 billion), leather and footwear ($ 1.18 billion), chemicals (2.34 billion), and electrical and mechanical machinery (about $ 9 billion). According to think tank GTRI, the duty on all Indian-origin goods could severely hit the country's exports to America. Federation of Indian Export Organizations (FIEO) Director General Ajay Sahai said that the order provides relaxation for goods in transit and those loaded on ship for final sailing to the US by August 7. Goods cleared for consumption in the US by October 5 will also not be subject to reciprocal tariffs, thus providing some relief to exporters of goods already shipped or likely to be shipped this week, he said. In 2024-25, the bilateral trade between India and the US stood at $ 131.8 billion ($ 86.5 billion exports and $ 45.3 billion imports). Sudhir Sekhri, Chairman, AEPC (Apparel Export Promotion Council), said: "We request immediate government intervention to offset this huge setback. "Exporters have their back against the wall and will have to sell below cost to keep their factories running and avoid mass layoffs." Indian shrimp exporters face an unprecedented new challenge in the US market, which contributes close to 48 per cent of their exports, Crisil Ratings Senior Director Rahul Guha said. Exporters are hoping that early finalisation of the India-US bilateral trade agreement will help in dealing with the tariff challenges. The negotiations between India and the US are still going on for an interim trade deal, though there will be no compromise on the red lines with regard to duty concessions on agriculture items, dairy, and genetically modified (GM) products, sources said. The two countries are negotiating a bilateral trade agreement (BTA). They are aiming to conclude the first phase of the pact by fall (October-November) this year.
