Awaiting price reaction for this filing.
Avenue Supermarts (D-Mart) reported standalone revenue of Rs. 15,932 crore for Q1 FY26, up 16.2% year-on-year, driven by store additions and like-for-like sales growth of 7.1% in mature stores. Standalone EBITDA grew 7.6% to Rs. 1,313 crore, but EBITDA margin compressed to 8.2% from 8.9% a year ago. Standalone PAT rose just 2.1% to Rs. 830 crore, with PAT margin slipping to 5.2% from 5.9%. Consolidated PAT was nearly flat at Rs. 773 crore vs. Rs. 774 crore. Management cited FMCG competitive intensity, staple deflation (100-150 bps revenue impact), and higher operating costs from service improvements and wage inflation as key headwinds. The company added 9 new stores, taking the total to 424.
Revenue growth remains healthy, but the sharp drop in profit growth and margin compression suggest pricing pressure and rising costs are weighing on profitability. Investors may view the results as a mixed bag — strong top-line expansion but weak bottom-line conversion, which could limit near-term upside in the stock.
