Nuvoco Vistas Corp Ltd reported a consolidated net profit of INR 49.37 crore in the third quarter of FY26, marking a return to profitability after reporting a loss in the corresponding quarter of the previous financial year. The improvement was supported by higher cement volumes, improved operational efficiencies, and lower fuel costs. Total consolidated income for the quarter rose to INR 2,704.03 crore, reflecting stronger execution despite uneven demand conditions during part of the quarter. Cement volumes reached a record level for a third quarter, while disciplined cost management helped offset pricing pressures in a competitive market. The company said demand strengthened toward the end of the quarter, supported by improved construction activity, positioning it for a more stable operating environment going forward.
Nuvoco Vistas Corp Ltd posted a consolidated net profit of INR 49.37 crore in the third quarter of FY26, reversing a loss recorded in the same period a year earlier, as higher volumes and cost efficiencies supported overall performance.
During the quarter, the company's total consolidated income increased to INR 2,704.03 crore from INR 2,409.52 crore in the year-ago period. The growth was driven by improved sales execution and a recovery in demand toward the latter part of the quarter.
Cement sales volumes rose 7 per cent year on year to 5 million metric tonnes, marking the highest-ever volume achieved by the company in a third quarter. Nuvoco currently operates with a total cement capacity of 35 million metric tonnes per annum.
The company noted that demand conditions remained mixed during the early part of the quarter, with October and November impacted by macroeconomic factors and seasonal disruptions. However, activity picked up significantly in December, resulting in stronger volume momentum by the end of the quarter.
Operational efficiencies played a key role in the turnaround, with Nuvoco recording its lowest blended fuel cost in the last 17 quarters at INR 1.41 per Mcal. Improved fuel mix and tighter cost controls helped protect margins despite a competitive pricing environment.
The company said it remains focused on efficiency-led growth, premiumisation, and disciplined pricing to sustain profitability. With construction activity expected to improve alongside infrastructure spending and seasonal demand, Nuvoco anticipates a more supportive operating environment in the coming quarters.
