Britannia Industries Limited announced its consolidated financial results for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2026, reporting steady growth in sales and profitability.

For Q4FY26, the company posted consolidated sales of ₹4,686 crore, registering a 7.1% increase compared to the same period last year. Net profit for the quarter rose 21.6% to ₹680 crore.

FY26 Revenue and Profit Growth

For the full financial year FY26, Britannia’s consolidated sales stood at ₹18,858 crore, reflecting a 7.5% year-on-year growth.

The company reported a net profit of ₹2,537 crore for the year, up 16.5% compared to FY25. The growth was supported by steady demand across product categories and operational efficiencies.

Commenting on the performance, Mr. Rakshit Hargave, Managing Director & Chief Executive Officer, said, “The Business witnessed a steady start to the quarter, with growth of ~9% in the first two months, before moderating to a lower number in March, primarily on account of supply disruptions in the International Business following the West Asia conflict. Over the year, we made significant strides in scaling our presence in the rapidly growing e-commerce channel, now contributing ~6% to the Domestic business, driven by e-commerce-first launches and a premium mix of offerings. Adjacent categories, including Croissant and Wafers, continued their strong momentum, while flagship brands such as Little Hearts and Jim Jam recorded robust double-digit growth.” 

He further added, “Going forward, we will continue to focus on driving growth across core and adjacent categories through a robust pipeline of innovations, agile execution and higher investment in advertising & brands”
