Colgate-Palmolive India posted Q2 FY27 net sales of Rs 1,692 crore, up 12.2% YoY. Net profit rose to Rs 342 crore from Rs 328 crore, a 5.5% growth excluding one-offs. Gross margin expanded 40 bps to 69.6%. H1 PAT stood at Rs 685 crore. Board declared first interim dividend of Rs 24 per share, total payout about Rs 653 crore, payable from Nov 19.

Strong double-digit topline growth and steady dividend payout signal healthy operations. Margin gains and brand investments support the outlook.
