In Q1, Hindustan Petroleum Corporation reported a consolidated net profit of ₹4,110.93 crore, skyrocketing approximately by 548 per cent from ₹633.94 crore recorded in the same period last year.
 
The rise was attributed to inventory gains and improved margins resulting from maintaining retail fuel prices. HPCL recorded a gross refining margin (GRM) of $3.08 per barrel for Q1 FY26, down from $5.03 per barrel in the same period last year.
