Godfrey Phillips India Management Take on Q2FY26 Results

Commenting on the business performance, Mr. Sharad Aggarwal Chief Executive Officer, said: “We are pleased to report our H1 FY26 financial results which reflect our sustained growth momentum over last year to this first half. The Company has recorded consolidated Gross Sales Value of Rs. 8,068 Crores and Net Profit (from continuing operations) of Rs. 661 Crores, representing increase of 23% and 22% respectively when compared to the corresponding period in last year. This performance underscores our focus on enhancing operational efficiency to drive profitability. 

Our initiatives to expand into new markets with differentiated offerings are progressing well, and we remain committed to delivering long-term value to our stakeholders. The Company has delivered robust domestic cigarette sales volume growth of 25% in H1 FY26 over the corresponding period of last year. 

Our unmanufactured tobacco exports in H1 FY26 are lower by 15% over H1 FY25, which shortfall we are quite hopeful of making up in H2, based on our various initiatives in crop development and strong customer relationships built over the years. The Company’s improved financial performance has led the Board to reward the shareholders by declaring an interim dividend of Rs 17 per share for FY26, on an enhanced capital base after issuance of bonus equity shares in the ratio of 2:1.”
