Prataap Snacks Limited announced its Q2 FY26 results, reporting income from operations of Rs. 4,298 million, up 5% sequentially from Q1 FY26, though there was a modest year-on-year decline attributed to the GST transition impact. Operating EBITDA grew 27% QoQ to Rs. 229 million, with margins expanding by 92 basis points from 4.4% to 5.3%. Profit after tax surged 500% QoQ to Rs. 41.4 million, lifting diluted EPS to Rs. 1.94 (up 569% QoQ). For H1 FY26, revenue stood at Rs. 8,387 million, EBITDA at Rs. 409.1 million, and PAT at Rs. 48.3 million. Management noted softness in chips and small price-point packs, while namkeen and pellet categories held steady, with quick-commerce emerging as the strongest growth channel among newer platforms.
The sharp sequential jump in PAT and margin expansion reflect improving operational efficiency, which is positive for shareholders, but the YoY revenue dip and ongoing demand softness are near-term concerns. Management's confidence in a consumption recovery in H2 FY26, supported by a planned new automated facility in Indore, could drive better earnings momentum ahead.
