Britannia Q2FY25 earnings highlights

Britannia Industries reported a 9.6 per cent year-on-year drop in consolidated net profit to Rs 531.5 crore for Q2FY25. The company cited high commodity costs, particularly in wheat, palm, and cocoa, as the primary reasons behind weaker consumer demand and pressure on margins. However, the company achieved 8 per cent volume growth, attributed to agile pricing strategies and cost optimisation.

Hindalco Industries surpassed market expectations, reporting a consolidated net profit of Rs 3,909 crore for the September quarter, up from Rs 3,298 crore a year earlier. Consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortisation (Ebitda) reached Rs 9,100 crore, marking a 49 per cent year-on-year increase, driven by reduced input costs and higher production volumes.
