Britannia Industries, a leading player in India’s FMCG and biscuit manufacturing sector, reported a 4.2% rise in consolidated net profit at Rs 559 crore in Q4 FY25, compared to Rs 536 crore a year earlier. The company’s revenue from operations rose 8.9% year-on-year to Rs 4,432 crore, supported by steady urban demand and premium product growth.
Despite inflationary pressures and subdued rural demand, Britannia maintained its operating profit margin at a healthy 16.2%. The company navigated cost inflation through calibrated price hikes, product mix improvements, and efficiency in distribution.
A major highlight was the announcement of a Rs 75 per share final dividend, making it one of the highest in the sector. The record date is August 4, 2025, and the dividend will be paid post the 106th Annual General Meeting (AGM) scheduled for August 11, 2025.
Britannia continues to invest in R&D and new product development, including health-focused and premium categories like croissants, dairy, and baked snacks. It has also expanded its export markets, especially in the Middle East and Africa, contributing to steady top-line growth.
Under the leadership of Varun Berry, the company is expected to maintain a strong position in the packaged foods segment. With a focus on distribution, rural penetration, and premiumization, Britannia remains a top FMCG stock pick for long-term investors.
