Hubtown Reports Mixed Financial Trends Amid Record Sales and Rising Interest Expenses

Hubtown, a small-cap player in the realty sector, has recently undergone a financial trend adjustment, reflecting its performance metrics for the quarter ending September 2025. The company reported a notable increase in profit before tax (PBT) less other income, which reached Rs 3.71 crore, marking a significant growth of 287.5% compared to the previous four-quarter average. Additionally, the net sales for the quarter hit a record high of Rs 208.51 crore, while the profit after tax (PAT) for the latest six months stood at Rs 103.34 crore.
However, not all indicators are favorable. The PAT for the quarter was recorded at Rs 24.06 crore, showing a decline of 20% against the previous four-quarter average. Furthermore, interest expenses rose to Rs 26.85 crore, reflecting a growth of 72.45%. A concerning trend is the non-operating income, which constituted 93.66% of the PBT, indicating a heavy reliance on income sources outside of core operations.

In terms of market performance, Hubtown has shown resilience, with stock returns outperforming the Sensex over various periods, including a year-to-date return of 19.12% compared to the Sensex's 8.41%. This performance highlights the company's ability to navigate market challenges effectively.
