Hindustan Unilever (ISIN INE030A01027) was trading at INR 1,870.40 on the NSE on October 7, 2026 at 2:03 p.m. IST, down 1.31 percent from the prior close. The stock stood 29.9 percent below its 52-week high of INR 2,667.20 and 2.4 percent above its 52-week low of INR 1,826.90.

June quarter shows mixed growth

According to Markets Insider on September 7, 2026, Hindustan Unilever reported June-quarter revenue of INR 171.84 billion, up 4.1 percent from INR 165.14 billion a year earlier. Net profit fell to INR 26.73 billion from INR 27.56 billion, a decline of 3.0 percent.

The contrast gives the upcoming results a clear test. Revenue continued to expand, but profit moved in the opposite direction, making volume delivery and margin control more important than topline growth alone.

Consensus target stays above market

Investing.com reports a Buy consensus from 38 analysts, with an average 12-month target of INR 2,424.16, a high of INR 2,860 and a low of INR 1,804. The average target lies 29.6 percent above the October 7 price.

As Markets Insider reported on September 7, 2026, Jefferies maintained a Buy rating with a price target of INR 2,450. The target is above the broader consensus average, but the current share price remains close to its yearly low.

October 28 is the next checkpoint

The NSE lists October 28, 2026, as the date for Hindustan Unilever's second-quarter and half-year financial results. That date should provide the next periodized test of whether the company's sales momentum is translating into earnings.

Hindustan Unilever's own website reports turnover of INR 63,763 crore for fiscal year 2025-26 and says nine out of ten Indian households use at least one of its brands. Hindustan Unilever therefore enters the October results window with scale intact, while the June-quarter profit decline keeps execution at the center of the valuation debate.

Stock trades near yearly low

Hindustan Unilever was last at INR 1,870.40 on the NSE on October 7, 2026 at 2:03 p.m. IST, with a market capitalization of INR 4,394.7 billion and volume of 413,045 shares.
