Hindustan Aeronautics Limited Registers Rs. 32,250 Crores in Revenue for FY 2025-26
Bengaluru, March 31, 2026: Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) announced a revenue of Rs. 32,250 crores (provisional and unaudited) for the financial year ended March 31, 2026, compared to Rs. 30,981 crores in the previous year. The company cited challenges in deliveries of the LCA MklA and HTT 40 due to supply chain issues and technical difficulties. However, accelerated deliveries of ALH, AL31-FP, RD-33 engines, and other products and services helped maintain revenue and profitability.“HAL has shown resilience and maintained steady growth despite geopolitical tensions, global conflicts, and supply chain challenges in the aerospace and defence sectors," said Dr. D K Sunil, CMD, HAL.
HAL’s order book stood at approximately Rs. 2.54 lakh crores as of March 31, 2026, up from Rs. 1.89 lakh crores at the beginning of the year after accounting for current-year liquidation. This increase is attributed to new orders including Rs. 62,370 crores for 97 LCA MklA aircraft, Rs. 2,704 crores for six ALH CG, and Rs. 2,186 crores for eight Dornier CG.
The company paid an interim dividend of Rs. 35 per equity share, totaling Rs. 2,341 crores, and a final dividend of Rs. 15 per equity share, totaling Rs. 1,003 crores. Total cash outflow for dividend payments amounted to Rs. 3,344 crores.
HAL expanded its manufacturing capabilities with the operationalization of a third LCA Tejas production line and a second HTT 40 line. The company also signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Mishra Dhatu Nigam Limited (MIDHANI) to establish a Strategic Metal Bank.
HAL entered the civil aviation sector with the inaugural flight of the Dhruv NG helicopter and the first series-production Hindustan Turbo Trainer-40 (HTI-40) aircraft.
The company strengthened partnerships through a MoU with Public Joint Stock Company United Aircraft Corporation (PJSC-UAC) to produce the SJ-100 civil commuter aircraft. Additionally, contracts were signed with Pawan Hans Ltd for 10 Dhruv NG helicopters and with Jags Aviation, Guyana, for two Hindustan-228 aircraft, which were delivered ahead of schedule.
HAL signed a SSLV Technology Transfer Agreement with ISRO, IN-SPACe, and NSIL to transition to a launch service provider.
Digital transformation initiatives included Robotics Process Automation, AI-enabled systems, and Daily Digital Inspection. HAL is centralizing its IT infrastructure with a Tier-3 Data Centre and Private Cloud.
The company established 50.15 MW of renewable energy capacity, meeting approximately 40% of its electricity needs from renewable sources. HAL also launched a HAL Endowment Scholarship Scheme in partnership with the Indian Institute of Technology, Madras, to support students from economically weaker backgrounds.
