Management Commentary

Dabur India Ltd Global Chief Executive Officer Mr. Mohit Malhotra commented on the performance: "Amid heightened geopolitical tensions in the Middle East that drove inflation, elevated freight costs, and impacted consumer demand in select markets, Dabur demonstrated agility in navigating the operating environment. We delivered a resilient performance during the fourth quarter of 2025-26 on the back of proactive supply chain diversification by way of opening alternative supply routes to key geographies, disciplined cost controls, and calibrated price increases, combined with strong brand-led consumer engagement."
