Hindustan Zinc Q3: Mined & Saleable Metal Production Jumps 4%; Shares Soar

• Hindustan Zinc reported a 4% year-on-year increase in mined metal production, reaching 276 kilotons (kt) in Q3 FY25, driven by higher ore production.
• Saleable metal production also rose by 4% to 270 kt, attributed to debottlenecking projects at Chanderiya and Dariba, and the ramp-up of the 160 KTPA roaster at Debari.
• Refined zinc production grew by 8% to 221 kt, reflecting improved operational efficiency and stable demand.
• However, refined lead production saw an 11% decline, reaching 49 kt during the quarter.
• The company's shares closed up 2.51% on Thursday and have surged 38.63% over the past year.

Why It Matters: Hindustan Zinc sees strong Q3 metal production growth, mixed refined metal results, and robust share performance.
