National Aluminium Company Limited (NALCO), an Indian state-owned aluminum giant, reported that its net profit rose by 34.9% to Rs 1,433 crore for the second quarter of the fiscal year 2026, up from Rs 1,062 crore a year earlier. This performance, supported by strong market demand, raised the first half profit by 50.15% to Rs 2,497 crore.
Total revenue from operations for the quarter also increased by 7.3% to Rs 4,292 crore. The results were driven by record-breaking production, including the highest-ever first-half output for Alumina Hydrate (1.15 million tons) and Aluminum Cast Metal (234,000 tons), coupled with record domestic metal sales. The company attributes its success to greater efficiencies and better cost control.
