Godrej Consumer Q1 business update

The fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) major is likely to deliver high-single-digit value growth on the back of mid-single-digit Underlying Volume Growth (UVG), according to an exchange filing. Volume growth has been strongly competitive and is sequentially improving, it said. 

 

At a consolidated level, the company expect double-digit rupee revenue growth on the back of high-single-digit UVG. The Home Care segment has continued on a broad-based and strong growth trajectory, and is likely to deliver double-digit value growth. 

 

In contrast, the Personal Care segment is expected to see low single-digit value growth, impacted by softness in soaps. Excluding soaps, the standalone business is expected to post a very strong performance this quarter, led by double-digit UVG.

 

As guided earlier, the consumer giant expects the performance to improve sequentially in FY26. "We believe for FY26, we are on track to deliver mid-high-single digit UVG for Standalone business, high-single digit consolidated rupee revenue growth and double-digit consolidated Ebitda growth for the full year."

 

Indonesian businesses faced a significant increase in competitive pricing action across all major categories, it noted, resulting in in flattish UVG. However, GAUM (Godrej Africa, USA, and Middle East) business is likely to deliver strong double-digit value growth and UVG for the second consecutive quarter, it added.
