In Q3 FY26, EBITDA stood at Rs 618 crore, up 5.1% over Q3 FY25, while the reported EBITDA margin at 16.8% contracted 35 bps year-on-year, largely due to higher A&P expenses.

The A&P reinvestment rate stood at 14.0% of net sales, reflecting targeted and consistent investment behind key trademarks and a higher growth mix at the premium end of the portfolio.
Gross profit grew 12.6% year-on-year, while the reported gross margin expanded 219 bps to 46.9%, driven by premiumisation-led mix improvement, ongoing management productivity and the flow-through of prior-year headline pricing.

Strong momentum in Rest of India and at the top-end of our portfolio bodes well.
