HUDCO Q4 Net Profit Rises 172% to Rs 1,981 Crore on Deferred Tax Credit

Housing and Urban Development Corporation (HUDCO) reported a 172% rise in consolidated net profit to Rs 1,981 crore for Q4 FY26, mainly due to a deferred tax credit of Rs 1,530 crore. Revenue increased 25% to Rs 3,563 crore, while profit before tax declined 39% to Rs 621 crore, impacted by higher finance costs and a net loss on fair value changes. The company also announced a final dividend of Rs 1.5 per share for FY26, pending shareholder approval.
