In a modestly upbeat Q4 showing, Hindustan Unilever Limited (HUL) reported a 3.6% year-on-year increase in profit, reaching ₹2,493 crore for Q4FY25 compared to ₹2,406 crore in the same quarter last year. Revenues grew 2.4% YoY to ₹15,213 crore, while EBITDA edged up by 1% to ₹3,466 crore.

Despite the positive figures, HUL shares slid over 3% from their highs as the company revised its margin guidance downward. The new expected range is 22–23%, lower than the earlier 23–24% forecast. For Q4FY25, the reported margin stood at 22.80%, slightly down from 23.10% in Q4FY24—marking a 30 basis point decline.

The tightening margin range has sparked cautious sentiment among investors and analysts, with some seeing it as a reflection of sustained cost pressures or evolving market dynamics.
