On Thursday, November 9, National Aluminium Company (NALCO), a Navratna CPSE Indian metal and mining company, announced its second-quarter fiscal results of FY2023-24, whereby it reported nearly 50 per cent rise in profit to INR 1.87 billion ($22.45 million) from INR 1.25 billion a year ago.
Improved infrastructure carried out by the Indian Government, resulting in boosted demand for the metal produced by the state-run manufacturer, caused NALCO’s profit growth.
India, one of the world’s biggest aluminium producers, has raised its budget on infrastructure ahead of general elections next year, which helped companies NALCO and its rival Hindalco Industries.
As per a Reuters report, NALCO has recorded about a 14 per cent jump in pre-tax profit in the mainstay aluminium segment for Q2 FY2024, accounting for around 80 per cent of the company’s total pre-tax profit.
In the same quarter, NALCO’s chemical segment, which makes calcined alumina, registered a hike of 27.7 per cent in pre-tax profit to reach INR 1.12 billion.
NALCO disclosed that it earned a higher profit in Q2 amid a downfall in revenue from operations, which fell by 12.8 per cent to INR 30.43 billion due to a 2 per cent growth in raw material costs.
