The profit after tax (PAT) was reported at ₹271.35 crore, compared to ₹295.97 crore recorded in the same quarter of the previous fiscal year, as stated in a filing with the BSE.
The company’s net consolidated total income for Q3 FY26 was ₹3,014.50 crore, reflecting a slight increase of 0.64 percent from ₹2,995.30 crore reported in the corresponding quarter of the previous year. Abltijit Roy, the managing director and CEO of the company, mentioned that the prolonged monsoon season extending into October and a shortened festive period resulted in a challenging October.
However, he noted that there was a gradual improvement in demand throughout the remainder of the quarter, which facilitated a commendable volume growth of 8.5% for the period. Additionally, the company experienced an enhancement in gross margins, reaching the highest levels observed in the past 15 quarters, which allowed for the delivery of EBIDTA within the expected range.
Although EBIDTA percentage was affected by negative scale effects and ongoing investments in brand development, improvements are anticipated to materialize in the upcoming months.
