Britannia Industries Q3 results

The FMCG company posted a 17.14% year-on-year (YoY) surge in its consolidated net profit to ₹682.14 crore for the December quarter of FY26, compared to ₹582.3 crore it logged in the same period last year, it said in a regulatory filing on Tuesday.

The growth in its bottom line was driven by strong momentum across both the biscuits and adjacent categories.

The bakery food company recorded a 9.5% YoY growth in its sales, which stood at ₹4,885.23 crore during the quarter under review, as against ₹4,463.30 crore in the third quarter of the 2024-25 fiscal year (Q3FY25).

Its revenue from operations surged 8.21% YoY to ₹4,969.82 crore in Q3 of the current fiscal year, in comparison to ₹4,592.62 crore in the year-ago period.

Commenting on the results, Rakshit Hargave, Managing Director & Chief Executive Officer of Britannia Industries, said: "The consolidated revenue growing by 9.5% during the quarter with profits growing faster at 17% underscores a return to healthy growth, driven by strong momentum across both the biscuits and adjacent categories, alongside a relatively stable commodity environment."

He added that while the biscuit industry remained under stabilsation for price points post the GST rate reduction, the firm’s business grew by approximately 12% in November and December.

The growth was led by sustained investment in media to strengthen brand visibility, the enhancement of its product portfolio through innovations such as the 50-50 Dipped range, and catering to a wider consumer base with offerings such as ‘Veg’ cake variant and ‘Doodh’ Marie Gold, among others.

Britannia Industries outlook

Hargave stated, “We remain focused on building a stronger ‘Britannia’ through elevated brand experiences and sustained investments, alongside distinctive and localised product innovations designed to address the diverse demographic andcultural preferences across the country.”

Britannia Industries has a total market capitalisation of ₹1.47 lakh crore, as of February 11, 2026, according to data on the NSE.
