Britannia Q1 results 2025: Revenue expectations
The company's revenue for the quarter under review is expected to increase 8.7 per cent in the first quarter (Q1FY26), on average, to ₹4,621.05 crore as compared to ₹4,250.3 crore a year ago. On a quarter-on-quarter (Q-o-Q) basis too, the revenue is poised to increase 4 per cent from ₹4,432.2 crore in Q4FY25.
How will Britannia fare in Q1FY26? Brokerages decode
Kotak Institutional Equities: The brokerage expects 4 per cent year-on-year (Y-o-Y) growth in biscuit volumes, as compared to 3.5 per cent/6 per cent Y-o-Y in Q4/Q3 and 6 per cent Y-o-Y price-mix impact, which is slightly better than Q4 due to the lagged impact of hikes. This shall result in 10 per cent Y-o-Y growth in standalone revenues, as against 9.2 per cent Y-o-Y revenue growth excluding other operating income in Q4.
Besides, other operating revenue is likely to decline 25 per cent Y-o-Y as the base quarter included some prior period grants. Consolidated net operating revenue is expected to grow at 8.9 per cent Y-o-Y to ₹4,628.3 crore, as compared to ₹4,250.3 crore.
Consolidated gross margin is anticipated to contract 205 basis points (bps) Y-o-Y to 41.3 per cent, due to raw material inflation in commodities such as wheat, palm, oil, cocoa, and milk; partly offset by price hikes/grammage cuts. Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortisation (Ebitda) margin is likely to rise 30 bps Y-o-Y to 18 per cent, as gross margin contraction may be offset by lower staff cost and advertising and promotion expenses.
Emkay Global Financial Services: The high volume base of Q1FY25 at 8 per cent would limit volume growth to 3-4 per cent in Q1FY26, according to Emkay's analysis. With part of the price hikes landing in the market, price growth is expected to accelerate to 6 per cent. A 240 bps gross margin contraction is forecasted amid inflationary raw prices.
Ebitda margin is likely to see an expansion of 20 bps Y-o-Y to 17.7 per cent. This would help support 10 per cent Ebitda growth in Q1FY26 to ₹831.6 crore. Lower borrowings, amid high raw material prices, may help with lower interest costs, thus aiding 11 per cent earnings growth.
Motilal Oswal Financial Services: Analysts expect 8.5 per cent revenue growth Y-o-Y to ₹4,583.3 crore in Q1FY26, with volume growth of 3 per cent and the remainder driven by price hikes in Q1FY26.
Gross profit margin is expected to contract 260 bps Y-o-Y to 40.8 per cent, while Ebitda margin is expected to contract 43 bps Y-o-Y to 17.3 per cent, primarily due to a rise in agri commodity prices. Consolidated Ebitda is pegged at ₹7,92.9 crore as compared to ₹753.7 crore Y-o-Y.
Nuvama Institutional Equities: The brokerage estimates overall revenue to grow 8.8 per cent Y-o-Y in Q1FY26 to ₹4,622.3, as compared to ₹4,250.3 crore. Volumes are likely to increase by 3 per cent Y-o-Y. Ebitda is expected to jump 12.3 per cent Y-o-Y to ₹846.2 crore, as against ₹753.7 crore.
Besides, pricing growth is likely to be by 6 per cent in Q1FY26 Y-o-Y. Further improvement is anticipated over the coming quarters. Gross margin shall dip 156 bp Y-o-Y, but improve 88 bps Q-o-Q, due to some benefit of palm oil duty cut and recent price correction, to 40.2 per cent, but Ebitda margin shall expand 57 bps Y-o-Y/14 bp Q-o-Q to 18.3 per cent, due to higher other expenditure.

Over 84,000 Indian gaming accounts leaked in 2024, says Kaspersky
Over 84,000 online gaming account user details were leaked in India in 2024, the global cybersecurity and digital privacy company Kaspersky on Tuesday said. Press Trust of India Vietnam Over 84,000 online gaming account user details were leaked in India in 2024, the global cybersecurity and digital privacy company Kaspersky on Tuesday said. The maximum number of leaks of gaming account user details was witnessed in Thailand, the minimum such instances were in Singapore in the Asia-Pacific (APAC)Region, it said. The APAC region has emerged as the global epicentre of gaming, with more than half of the world's gamers based here. Markets such as China, India, Japan, South Korea, and the rapidly growing economies of Southeast Asia contribute significantly to this dominance. According to Kaspersky, Thailand recorded 1,62,892 leaked cases, followed by the Philippines with 99,273, Vietnam 87,969, India 84,262, Indonesia 69,909, Malaysia 37,718, South Korea 37,097, China 18,786, Sri Lanka 10,877, and Singapore 4,262 leaked cases, the company said. The company further said that 11 million gaming account credentials were leaked last year. The region's rapid digital adoption, widespread mobile penetration, and youth-driven demand have fueled exponential growth across both casual and competitive gaming segments, it added. With nearly 1.8 billion players and growing, the gaming ecosystem in APAC is not only the largest by volume but also among the most influential in shaping global gaming trends and behaviours, the company said. "Thus, it does not come as a surprise that the region is fast-becoming a breeding ground for data-stealing cyber threats, the company said. Addressing an event here, Adrian Hia, the company's Managing Director for Asia Pacific, said that virus threats have gone up significantly over the last two decades from one new virus threat every hour to 4,67, 000 new virus threats every day in the year 2004. The company's global non-audited revenue was at USD 822 million in 2024. Kaspersky registered 11 per cent sales growth last year.

Kisan credit card accounts in government banks decline marginally in FY25
The number of Kisan Credit Card (KCC) accounts in public sector banks declined marginally by 1.8 per cent year-on-year to 22.5 million in fiscal 2025, while the outstanding loan amount grew by a marginal 2.2 per cent growth to ₹ 41,300 crore during the period, a senior government official said on the condition of anonymity, reported Business Standard. The decline in active KCC accounts reflects multiple structural shifts in rural lending, the official said. 'Farmers' incomes have improved over the years, with many moving out of farming, while in some states they increasingly prefer co-operative banks, NBFCs, or input-linked credit cards like fertilizer cards, reducing drawdowns from PSBs.' 'Many KCCs from the aggressive drives of the 2000s remained dormant or underutilised, prompting us to rationalise non-operative accounts to clean up portfolios and cut compliance overheads as advised by RBI and the finance ministry,' the official said. Another senior official at a public-sector bank said that KCC saturation mapping, geo-tagging, and Aadhaar seeding have improved scrutiny, leading to the weeding out of duplicate and ineligible accounts. Some farmers have moved to PM-KISAN or the Agri Infrastructure Fund, while technology integration delays at branches, such as incomplete digital documents or portal mismatches, have slowed renewals. At the same time, several small-ticket NPAs, including those impacted by debt waivers, have been settled through one-time compromises, leading to the closure of several accounts. 'Yes, the number of new KCC accounts has declined. This is primarily due to saturation in many areas. Over the past few years, there was a significant push from the government, and banks actively worked towards ensuring maximum coverage. As a result, most eligible farmers already have access to KCC facilities now. However, KCC remains a key instrument for crop loans, and for many farmers, it continues to be the natural and preferred choice for meeting agricultural credit needs,' Ashok Chandra, MD & CEO of Punjab National Bank, wrote Business Standard. The KCC scheme, which was introduced in 1998, offers short-term crop loans to farmers engaged in agriculture and allied activities at a benchmark rate of 9 per cent. Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, in the Budget for FY26, increased the loan limit for farmers holding KCC to ₹ 5 lakh from ₹ 3 lakh. While making the announcement, the minister said KCCs facilitate short-term loans for 77 million farmers, fishermen, and dairy farmers. 'To promote timely repayment of outstanding amounts in operative accounts of KCC, the farmers are provided 3 per cent prompt repayment incentives,' Pankaj Chaudhary, minister of state for finance, had said.

Hero MotoCorp Q1 Preview: Revenue, Profit seen declining amid volume weakness and EV drag
Hero MotoCorp is likely to report a muted set of numbers for the quarter ended June 2025, with both revenue and profit expected to decline year-on-year, weighed down by weak volumes, supply constraints, and rising pressure from increased electric vehicle (EV) contribution. An average of estimates from five brokerages suggests a 6% year-on-year fall in revenue, while net profit is seen declining by about 5% compared to the same period last year. Productivity Tool Zero to Hero in Microsoft Excel: Complete Excel guide By Metla Sudha Sekhar View Program Finance Introduction to Technical Analysis & Candlestick Theory By Dinesh Nagpal View Program Finance Financial Literacy i e Lets Crack the Billionaire Code By CA Rahul Gupta View Program Digital Marketing Digital Marketing Masterclass by Neil Patel By Neil Patel View Program Finance Technical Analysis Demystified- A Complete Guide to Trading By Kunal Patel View Program Productivity Tool Excel Essentials to Expert: Your Complete Guide By Study at home View Program Artificial Intelligence AI For Business Professionals Batch 2 By Ansh Mehra View Program by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Relive the Bollywood 2025 moments that went viral Learn More Undo Brokerages expect volumes to have declined around 11–12% YoY to 1.37 million units, impacted by production challenges in April and continued demand weakness in the entry-level 110cc motorcycle segment. While realizations are expected to rise 7–10% YoY—driven by a richer product mix, price hikes, and higher contribution from spare parts and exports—it is unlikely to offset the volume hit. Kotak Institutional Equities expects revenue to drop 2% YoY, aided by a 7% increase in average selling price (ASP). It sees EBITDA margin contracting 30 bps YoY to 14.1%, with the bottom line falling accordingly. Motilal Oswal forecasts a steeper 60 bps margin decline to 13.8%, citing a higher EV mix and weak ICE (internal combustion engine) sales. It expects PAT to fall about 7% YoY. Live Events Nuvama echoes the volume-led revenue decline and adds that product launch expenses and lower scale will also weigh on operating margins. It notes that demand commentary will be key. Phillip Capital sees a 1% sequential decline in volume, hurt by a 36% QoQ drop in exports. While ASP is expected to increase marginally QoQ to Rs 73,071, commodity costs and rising EV contribution are expected to squeeze the EBITDA margin by 26 bps to 14%. PAT may see a marginal 2% QoQ growth, it notes. YES Securities estimates a 2% YoY revenue decline to ~Rs 9,940 crore, with margins falling 40 bps YoY to 14%. Adjusted PAT is seen at Rs 1,070 crore, down 4.7% YoY. Hero is expected to report its Q1FY26 earnings later this week. All eyes will be on the management's demand outlook—particularly in the rural and entry-level segments—as well as any updates on its EV roadmap.
