Nestle India announced its Q1 FY26 (April–June 2025) unaudited results, reporting total sales of ₹5,074 crore, up 5.9% year-on-year, with domestic sales growing 5.5%. The company returned to volume-led growth in three of four product categories — Prepared Dishes, Powdered and Liquid Beverages, and Confectionery — with seven of its top twelve brands growing at double-digit rates. EBITDA margin improved to 21.7% of sales. However, net profit fell to ₹659.2 crore (from ₹746.6 crore in Q1 FY25) and EPS dropped to ₹6.84 (from ₹7.74), impacted by higher commodity costs (raw materials rose to 45% of sales from 42.5%) and elevated operating and finance costs. The Board also approved the appointment of Mr. Manish Tiwary as Chairman and Managing Director effective August 1, 2025, replacing the retiring Mr. Suresh Narayanan. A final dividend of ₹10 per share for FY25 will be paid starting July 24, 2025. Statutory auditors issued an unmodified review report.
Mixed quarter for shareholders — healthy topline growth and margin expansion are positives, but a double-digit fall in net profit due to commodity pressure and higher costs may temper near-term sentiment. The leadership transition is well-flagged and the dividend payment is a positive cash event for investors.
