Key Financial Highlights

The following table summarizes the key financial metrics for the quarter:

Segment Performance

The Industry Essentials segment emerged as a key growth driver, with revenue jumping 28.1% year-on-year to ₹2,856.80 crore, while segment results surged 48.5% to ₹148.76 crore. The Food & FMCG segment saw revenue rise 22.1% to ₹1,726.48 crore, with EBITDA crossing ₹100 crore for the first time at ₹104 crore. Edible Oil revenue declined 11.7% quarter-on-quarter to ₹15,464.86 crore but remained 15.2% higher than Q1FY26, driven by improved pricing discipline despite temporary channel destocking.

Channel and Subsidiary Updates

Alternate Channels (E-commerce, Quick Commerce & Modern Trade) grew 27% year-on-year, with Last Twelve Months (LTM) revenues crossing ₹5,600 crore. Quick Commerce registered 56% year-on-year growth, outpacing overall market trends. The HoReCa business grew 30% year-on-year, while Branded Exports volumes doubled during the quarter. Subsidiary GD Foods reported 23% revenue growth, and Omkar Chemicals saw revenues rise 41% year-on-year with 18% underlying volume growth.

What the Numbers Show

The strong EBITDA expansion — nearly doubling to ₹693 crore from ₹366 crore year-on-year — significantly outpaced revenue growth of 17.5%, reflecting robust margin improvement as EBITDA margin widened to 3.46% from 2.14%. While total consolidated revenue fell 6.6% quarter-on-quarter to ₹20,048.14 crore from ₹21,464.78 crore, net profit increased 19.9% to ₹351.39 crore. This divergence was fueled by a significant improvement in segment results, which rose 19.2% to ₹526.53 crore, offsetting higher unallocable expenses. Additionally, the net impact of realized and unrealized losses on commodity derivatives stood at ₹67.29 crore, a marked improvement from the ₹104.47 crore gain recorded in the previous quarter, indicating stabilized hedging outcomes. Standalone net profit grew 47.7% year-on-year to ₹332.00 crore, with earnings per share increasing to ₹2.71 for the consolidated entity.
