Marico reported a 25% jump in first-quarter profit to ₹630 crore, driven by robust volume growth in India and expanding international operations.
The Mumbai-based consumer goods company cited strong performances from its core Parachute and Saffola brands, alongside gains in its premium personal care portfolio, as key contributors to the earnings beat.
The profit surge validates the management’s earlier guidance and suggests that the shift toward value-added products is resonating with consumers.
Quick-commerce channels also provided a notable tailwind, accelerating distribution reach in urban markets.
The results underscore the effectiveness of Marico’s strategic pivot toward premiumisation and digital-first brand development.
By leveraging high-growth distribution channels and focusing on higher-margin categories, the company has managed to offset broader consumer goods sector headwinds.
