India Business Drives Growth
India operations saw 9% volume growth, with revenue up 27% YoY to ₹2,495 crore. The growth was driven by price hikes and strong performance in core product portfolios.
Margin Decline Amid Input Inflation
EBITDA rose to ₹655 crore, but the operating margin fell to 20.1% from 23.7%, reflecting high input costs. Marico expects margins to recover in H2 FY26.
