V-Mart Retail posted strong Q1 FY26 results with revenue from operations rising 13% year-on-year to ₹885 crore, up from ₹786 crore in Q1 FY25. EBITDA grew 27% YoY to ₹126 crore, with margin expanding from 12.6% to 14.3%, reflecting better operating efficiency. Profit after tax (PAT) surged 177% YoY to ₹34 crore, with PAT margin improving to 3.8% from 1.5%, aided by lower base and operational leverage. Same-store sales growth was 1% YoY, but normalised to 5% after adjusting for the preponement of Eid into the previous quarter, with both V-Mart and Unlimited formats contributing 5% each. The company added 15 new stores and shut 2 underperformers, taking the total store count to 510 across 27 states and UTs. Inventory days improved 5% YoY to 93 days, indicating better working capital management.
This is a clearly positive result with strong double-digit revenue growth, sharp margin expansion, and a near-threefold jump in profits, likely to support a positive short-term reaction in the stock. Continued store expansion in Tier II/III cities signals confidence in future growth, though the modest underlying same-store sales growth remains a point to watch.
