Innovation and Management Commentary

Innovation remained a core growth driver, with 80 new launches in FY26 across Health & Wellness, Convenience, and Premiumisation themes. Innovation-to-sales stood at 4.5%, described as best-in-class, with revenue from innovation having scaled 7X since FY21.

Commenting on the results, Sunil D'Souza, Managing Director & CEO of Tata Consumer Products, said: "We delivered a strong finish to FY26 with another quarter of consistent double-digit topline growth. Performance was broad-based across our core and growth businesses, reflecting sustained momentum in execution, innovation and brand building. The Foods business continued its strong trajectory with Tata Sampann recording exceptional growth momentum. Our 'Growth' businesses grew 24% in FY26 and accounted for 31% of the India business, demonstrating the steady transformation of our portfolio. Innovation continued to fuel our growth agenda with 80 new launches in FY26 across categories. As we move into the next phase of growth, we remain focused on building scale, strengthening our portfolio and consistently delivering value to consumers, customers and shareholders."

How might sustained US tariff pressures and rising coffee cost inflation impact Tata Consumer's International Business margins in FY27, and what hedging or pricing strategies could the company deploy to protect profitability?

With Tata Starbucks reaching 502 stores and achieving three consecutive quarters of positive same-store sales growth, what is the realistic store expansion target and path to profitability for the joint venture over the next two to three years?

Given that the 'Growth businesses' now account for 31% of India revenue and are projected to grow 30%, could these segments realistically become the dominant revenue contributor within the next three to five years, potentially reshaping Tata Consumer's core identity beyond tea?

Tata Consumer Products Limited has announced the grant of the third tranche of Performance Share Units (PSUs) to eligible employees. The Nomination and Remuneration Committee of the Board approved the grant of 3,25,020 PSUs on May 08, 2026. This decision follows the authority granted by shareholders through a postal ballot conducted on May 4, 2024.

Grant Details

The allocation is made under the Tata Consumer Products Limited- Share-based Long Term Incentive Scheme 2024 (TCPL-SLTI Scheme 2024). The scheme is fully compliant with the SEBI (Share Based Employee Benefits and Sweat Equity) Regulations, 2021. The total number of PSUs granted corresponds to an equal number of fully paid-up equity shares, each with a face value of Re. 1/-.

The specific number of units granted to each employee was determined by dividing the Long Term Incentive Pay amount awarded to the employee by the Closing Market Price of the shares on the National Stock Exchange (NSE). The reference price used was from May 07, 2026, which was one trading day prior to the committee's approval.

Pricing and Exercise Terms

The exercise price for the PSUs has been fixed at Re. 1/- per unit, which represents the face value of the underlying equity shares. As this is a grant announcement, details regarding vested options, exercised options, and money realized are not applicable at this stage.

Particulars Details
PSUs Granted 3,25,020
Underlying Shares 3,25,020 fully paid-up equity shares of Re. 1/- each
Exercise Price Re. 1/- per PSU
Pricing Basis Face value of underlying equity shares
Regulatory Compliance SEBI (Share Based Employee Benefits and Sweat Equity) Regulations, 2021

The exercise period for these units will commence from the date of vesting. Generally, this period will expire at the end of twelve months from the vesting date. However, exceptions exist for events such as the death or permanent incapacity of a participant. Additionally, the Nomination & Remuneration Committee retains the discretion to extend the exercise period by a further two years if deemed appropriate.

Scheme Information

Significant terms and conditions of the PSUs were previously disclosed as part of the Explanatory Statement in the Postal Ballot Notice dated March 14, 2024. The company has made this information available on its official website. The disclosure ensures compliance with the applicable provisions of the SEBI Listing Regulations.

How might the vesting conditions tied to performance metrics under the TCPL-SLTI Scheme 2024 impact employee retention and talent acquisition strategies at Tata Consumer Products over the next 2-3 years?

Given that this is the third tranche grant, what is the total cumulative dilution impact on existing shareholders from all PSU tranches issued under the TCPL-SLTI Scheme 2024 so far?

How could the exercise price set at face value (Re. 1/-) influence the actual compensation value for employees if Tata Consumer Products' stock price experiences significant volatility before vesting?
