On Monday, 7th July, shares of Dabur India climbed 1.97% to trade at ₹504.85 on the NSE, up ₹9.75 from the previous close of ₹495.10. The uptick follows the FMCG company's positive business update for the quarter, highlighting a recovery in demand and strong growth across key brands and segments.
During the quarter, Dabur noted a sequential recovery in the Indian FMCG sector, particularly in urban markets, which supported volume growth. Its Home and Personal Care (HPC) division is expected to perform well, driven by categories like oral care, home care, and skin care. Flagship brands such as Dabur Red Toothpaste, Odonil, Odomos, and Gulabari are expected to report strong growth alongside market share gains.
In its healthcare portfolio, products including Dabur Honey, Hajmola, Dabur Honitus, and Dabur Health Juices are expected to achieve robust double-digit growth, with Dabur Honitus standing out at over 40% growth. Organised trade channels, including e-commerce, quick commerce, and modern trade, continued their growth momentum during the quarter.
The international business is also projected to deliver double-digit growth in constant currency terms, led by key regions such as MENA, Turkey, Bangladesh, and the US Namaste business.
However, the beverage segment faced headwinds from unseasonal rains and a short summer, limiting overall revenue growth to low single digits. Despite this, Activ Juices and Activ Coconut Water performed well with growth expected in the mid-teens, and the company plans to further develop the Activ portfolio to reduce seasonality.
Dabur expressed confidence that with a refreshed strategic vision, easing inflation, favourable monsoon, and supportive government measures, revenue growth is expected to gain momentum in the coming quarters. The company reiterated its commitment to investing in brands, expanding distribution, and driving efficiencies to deliver sustainable growth.
In FY25, Dabur reported consolidated revenue of ₹12,563 crore and a consolidated net profit of ₹1,768 crore. Its portfolio includes three ₹1,000 crore brands — Dabur Amla, Dabur Red Toothpaste, and Real — along with several others in the ₹500 crore and ₹100–500 crore ranges, and it reaches 8.5 million retail outlets across India.
