In the fourth quarter of the fiscal year 2025 (Q4FY25), HFCL Ltd reported a total income of ₹1339.67 crores, representing a significant quarter-over-quarter (QoQ) growth of 29.8% compared to ₹1031.99 crores in the third quarter of FY25 (Q3FY25). However, on a year-over-year (YoY) basis, there was a decline of 7.4% from ₹1446.72 crores recorded in Q4FY24. This indicates variability in revenue generation over the different fiscal periods. The increase in revenue QoQ suggests a recovery or growth phase, while the YoY decrease points to a possible downturn or adjustment from previous higher revenue levels.

The Profit Before Tax (PBT) for HFCL Ltd in Q4FY25 was ₹149.50 crores, reflecting a substantial increase of 50.1% QoQ from ₹99.61 crores in Q3FY25 and a 37.4% increase YoY from ₹108.81 crores in Q4FY24. This growth in profitability is also observed in the Profit After Tax (PAT), which stood at ₹109.36 crores in Q4FY25, up by 50.7% QoQ from ₹72.59 crores in Q3FY25 and 39.0% YoY from ₹78.68 crores in Q4FY24.

These figures illustrate strong performance in profitability metrics despite the noted decline in revenue YoY.
Operating Metrics
HFCL Ltd's total expenses for Q4FY25 amounted to ₹1190.17 crores, which is a 27.6% increase QoQ from ₹932.38 crores in Q3FY25 but shows a decrease of 11.0% YoY from ₹1337.91 crores in Q4FY24. This indicates a significant rise in operational spending in the recent quarter compared to the previous one, yet a reduction when compared to the same quarter the previous year. Such changes in operating expenses can impact the company's financial performance by affecting profit margins. The data suggests operational efficiency improvements over the year, alongside increased expenditures in the recent quarter.
