Hindalco's 30% net jump in June quarter puts Novelis revival in strong focus

The worst is over for Novelis on several fronts, said Satish Pai, managing director of Hindalco Industries . "By the second half of this year, you should start to see a very positive turn for Novelis," he said on Tuesday. Hindalco Industries, which reported consolidated earnings on Tuesday, posted a 30% rise in consolidated net profit for the June quarter at ₹4,004 crore, with consolidated revenue from operations up 13% at ₹64,232 crore. Finance Value and Valuation Masterclass - Batch 4 By CA Himanshu Jain View Program Artificial Intelligence AI For Business Professionals Batch 2 By Ansh Mehra View Program Finance Value and Valuation Masterclass - Batch 3 By CA Himanshu Jain View Program Artificial Intelligence AI For Business Professionals By Vaibhav Sisinity View Program Finance Value and Valuation Masterclass - Batch 2 By CA Himanshu Jain View Program Finance Value and Valuation Masterclass Batch-1 By CA Himanshu Jain View Program Novelis, the wholly-owned US-based subsidiary, saw a 36% drop in net income for the June quarter at $96 million, while adjusted EBITDA per tonne of aluminium was $432, down 18% year-on-year. Structurally higher scrap prices dented performance during the quarter, Novelis said on Monday. "Scrap spreads have started to improve, particularly in the US. So, we are now hoping that will get better in the coming quarters," Pai said on Tuesday. "The supply of scrap in the US has also gone up, so scrap spreads are no longer a headwind, but have started to become a tailwind," he told reporters after the earnings call. The September and December quarters of last fiscal marked the peak in scrap prices, Pai said, with prices now turning favourable. Live Events While the June quarter marks the "bottom" in many ways, the September quarter will be similar. "By Q3 and Q4 of this year, you are going to see a much stronger and healthier Novelis," Pai said. Earnings in the second half will reflect the impact of scrap spread mitigation, cost reduction measures and improving spreads, he added. For the upstream aluminium business in India, Hindalco's EBITDA rose 17% year-on-year to ₹4,080 crore. Upstream EBITDA per tonne stood at $1,467, up 15% from a year earlier. In the downstream aluminium business, EBITDA per tonne jumped 92% year-on-year to $264, while EBITDA hit a record ₹229 crore, up 108% year-on-year. In the copper business, EBITDA was ₹673 crore, with sharply lower TC/RCs offset by higher sulphuric acid realisations, the company said. At the consolidated level, EBITDA rose 9% year-on-year to ₹8,673 crore. Hindalco announced earnings during market hours, with its shares closing at ₹666.95 on the BSE, down 0.7% from the previous close.

US move on BLA linked to its mining interests in Balochistan

Synopsis The U.S. designation of the Baloch Liberation Army as a Foreign Terrorist Organization strengthens Pakistan's position against Baloch activists and potentially paves the way for American mining firms to access rare earth deposits in Balochistan. This move, coinciding with increased US-Pakistan trade and high-level visits, could also impact China's economic interests in the region, particularly the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor. The move by the USA to declare Baloch Liberation Army (BLA) a Foreign Terrorist Organisation (FTO) not only strengthens Field Marshal Asim Munir's hands against Baloch political activists but can also facilitate the presence of American mining firms in Pakistan's biggest province that reportedly has rare earth and the USA, ever since the warming of ties under Trump 2.0, have held dialogues on mining Pakistan's rare earth. In fact, this has been one of elements that contributed to the strengthening of US-Pakistan ties over the past six it appears, may have convinced the Trump administration that controlling BLA is essential for harnessing "critical minerals" in the province. Critics argue that the USA may even put boots on the ground in Balochistan akin to Afghanistan but that might make the situation on the ground messy. Americans might be targets of locals who understand topography better and history may repeat itself like Afghanistan, according to diplomatic locals in Balochistan have repeatedly targeted Chinese-funded projects and engineers as they felt that Beijing has exploited the region without any benefits for locals and that their sovereignty is being compromised. China may welcome any action against BLA but it remains to be seen how it reacts to American commercial or security presence in Balochistan as that may impact the China Pakistan Economic Corridor passing through Balochistan. Gwadar port is also located in Balochistan. Observers are keeping a close watch if Pakistan, a current non-permanent member of the UNSC, moves the council armed with the US decision on BLA. It may be a rare occasion when both China and the USA support Pakistan on the issue in the council. However, BLA cannot be designated under the 1267 sanctions committee as it does not have links to Al Qaeda or associated US designation of BLA coincides with Munir's visit to Washington and follows a recent US-Pakistan trade agreement.
