Q3 Outlook Strong for Godrej Consumer
Godrej Consumer Products Ltd (GCPL) is projecting a strong finish to the year, anticipating double-digit revenue and EBITDA growth for the third quarter. The company cited a progressive demand recovery in India, fueled by easing inflation and an anticipated consumption rebound.
Home Care Leads Growth, Margins Improve
The home care segment is expected to lead the charge with robust consumer demand, while personal care, particularly soaps, is projected for mid-single-digit growth. Standalone EBITDA margins are poised to return to their normative range, reflecting lower input costs and improved operating leverage.
International Operations Show Resilience
Internationally, while Indonesia faces pricing pressures with recovery seen post-FY27, the GAUM cluster encompassing Godrej Africa, the USA, and the Middle East delivered a strong performance. This resilience underpins GCPL's reaffirmed FY26 guidance of double-digit growth. Godrej Consumer's shares closed up 0.7% at ₹1,253 on the NSE prior to the announcement.
