Britannia Industries Q1 FY 2026-27 Results: Biscuits maker Britannia Industries Ltd reported its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, on Thursday, August 6, after market hours with earnings coming in below street expectations despite healthy topline growth.

The company's consolidated net profit rose 13.6% year-on-year to Rs 591.4 crore, compared with Rs 520.1 crore in the corresponding period last year.

Revenue from operations increased 8.2% year-on-year to Rs 5,000 crore from Rs 4,622.2 crore in the year-ago quarter, marginally above the poll expectation of Rs 4,994 crore. Consolidated sales for the quarter stood at Rs 4,964 crore, registering growth of 9.5% compared with the same period last year, while standalone sales rose 10% year-on-year.

At the operating level, EBITDA rose 11% to Rs 840 crore, compared with Rs 757 crore in the year-ago quarter, though this came in below the poll estimate of Rs 870 crore. EBITDA margin expanded to 16.8% from 16.4% a year earlier.

Management Commentary

Commenting on the results, Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director Rakshit Hargave said the year started with the West Asia conflict, leading to a steep increase in fuel and shipment costs across the company's domestic and international businesses, a challenge he said the company navigated well during the quarter, delivering healthy volume and value growth while gaining ground against competition, with profit growing ahead of the topline in double digits.

He said most key categories saw positive sequential momentum, with the company exiting the quarter with mid-teens revenue growth, anchored by rapid scaling in e-commerce and robust growth in general trade, aided by higher advertisement, influencer and promotion spends. He added that the company continued to elevate brand salience through high-impact, topical mass media campaigns, along with localised activations to deepen regional consumer engagement.

Hargave said innovation remains a key growth engine, with impulse and indulgent offerings strengthening the company's portfolio, while the international business also recovered sequentially as supply chain constraints began normalising toward the end of the quarter. He added that the company will continue to closely monitor the evolving geopolitical situation in West Asia and crude oil volatility for their potential impact on international operations and domestic input costs, while remaining agile to deliver healthy, sustainable revenue growth through innovation, brand investment and disciplined margin management.
