Commenting on the earnings, LG Electronics India Managing Director Hong Ju Jeon, said: “I am happy to highlight that LG Electronics India has delivered its highest-ever quarterly revenue in Q4 FY26, a testament to the strength of our brand and the resilience of our business model. Despite a complex global environment, LGE India has remained customer-focused, agile, and growth-oriented. We are navigating these macro challenges with calibrated actions and continued investment in premiumisation to ensure that LGE India is well-positioned to lead this transition.”

What analysts said

According to analysts at Morgan Stanley, LG Electronics India the 8% YoY growth in its revenue was led by premiumisation and broad-based demand recovery. Its EBITDA margin declined by 230 basis points (bps) to 11.7% due to commodity inflation and rupee depreciation.

While its adjusted profit after tax (PAT) fell 8% YoY, its revenue from the home entertainment segment advanced 20% YoY. The analysts added that industry-wide price hikes are underway to offset the pressure from commodity costs. The firm’s management expects cost pressures to ease as geopolitical conditions stabilise.
