New Delhi: Patanjali Foods Limited announced its unaudited financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, on Thursday.
During the quarter, the inflation reduced and fell to 2.1% in the month of June, the lowest in the last three years. Despite this, the quarter witnessed a tough operating environment, mainly due to subdued urban demand and elevated competition from regional and new age D2C companies.
However, the rural demand remained stable and outpaced the urban demand. Effective May 31, 2025, the Indian government halved the basic customs duty on crude palm, sunflower, and soybean oils. This change had an impact on the pricing and demand for edible oils during the quarter.
Further, during the quarter, the overall demand remained subdued, particularly in non-essential and premium FMCG categories, on account of various welfare schemes by government, offering free food items to the public along with policy for duty free import of yellow peas.
The revenue from operations stood at Rs 8,899.70 cr while it was Rs 7,177.17 cr in Q1FY25. The gross profit stood at Rs 1,259.19 cr vis–a–vis Rs 1,017.02 cr of the same period last year, reporting YoY growth of 23.81%. The Gross Profit Margin (on Total Income basis) stood at 14.13%. Advertising and sales promotion expenses accounted for 0.72% of revenue from operations.
In Q1FY26, various initiatives were undertaken by the company to enhance its distribution architecture including establishing new direct outlets with focus on middle India cluster. Also, there has been expansion of rural reach through Super Stockist network program, Grameen Vitrak Program initiatives and setting up of new Grameen Arogya Kendras as Rural India continues to anchor volume.
