Revenue from operations increased by 10% YoY to Rs 18,603 crore in Q3 FY26, supported by an underlying volume growth of 3%. Growth was primarily driven by healthy volume offtake in the Edible Oil segment.
On the segmental front, Edible Oil revenue was Rs 15,025 crore (up 12% YoY), Food & FMCG revenue was Rs 1,648 crore (up 9% YoY) and Industry Essentials revenue was Rs 1,930 crore (up 1% YoY) for the period under review.

The company recorded an exceptional charge of Rs 26 crore in Q3 FY26 on account of the implementation of the new labour codes.
Shrikant Kanhere, MD & CEO, AWL Agri Business, said: “Despite a challenging macro demand environment, AWL Agri Business maintained modest single-digit volume growth in Q3 FY26, led by resilient performance in edible oils and a continued rebound in our Food & FMCG portfolio.
We remain focused on strengthening our integrated value chain and go-to-market capabilities while scaling alternate, digital and quick-commerce channels. We continue to enhance distribution efficiency and reach to support sustainable and profitable growth.
As part of the Wilmar Group, we align with our parent’s strategic emphasis on resilient core operations and long-term value creation, even when headline results face transient challenges.'
AWL Agri Business is one of India’s largest Food & FMCG companies, offering a diverse portfolio of essential kitchen staples, including edible oils, wheat flour, rice, pulses, and sugar.
The scrip rose 0.87% to currently trade at Rs 214.35 on the BSE.
According to the company’s exchange filing, standalone volumes in Q3 FY26 were largely flat compared with Q3 FY25, while revenues grew 5% year on year, indicating modest price or mix-led growth.
At the segment level, the Edible Oil business delivered relatively better performance, with volumes rising 3% and value increasing 6%.
The Food & FMCG segment reported a marginal 1% decline in volumes but managed to post a 1% increase in value, reflecting stable realizations.
In contrast, the Industry Essentials division underperformed, with volumes contracting 7% and value declining 1% during the quarter.
AWL Agri Business stated that growth during the quarter was primarily led by uptick in both Edible Oil and Food & FMCG segment.
However, the overall volumes were dragged by de-growth in castor and de-oiled cakes classified under the Industry Essentials segment. Festive demand was relatively subdued during the quarter as trade continued to operate with lean inventory levels.
The Food & FMCG business has shown a gradual recovery over recent quarters with improved offtake, on the back of multiple interventions and improvements in the rice business.
While the overall rice business (ex-G2G) marginally declined in low single digits, the branded domestic rice business grew in strong double digits. Wheat Flour consumer pack business remained flat during the quarter, as demand continues to remain subdued this year.
However, wheat flour & refined flour business catering to HORECA segment recorded strong double-digit growth during the quarter.
Food & FMCG products other than rice & wheat business, contributing over one-third of the segment, recorded a strong growth exceeding 30% YoY in Q3 FY26.
Alternate channels (E-com, Q-com, MT) continued the strong growth momentum during the quarter, growing at 42% YoY in volumes. The channel recorded a revenue of ~INR 4,800 crore in the last twelve months. The strong momentum in channel was led by record 65% YoY volume growth in Quick Commerce.
Most of the products on e-commerce recorded a solid growth, with atta & rice registering a growth exceeding 40% YoY. With the increasing relevance and competition across e-commerce platforms (including quick commerce), marketing spends towards the channel are being gradually rationalized in favor of alternate channel.
HoReCa and Branded exports (edible oil & foods) too recorded a strong double digit volume growth during the quarter. The company continues to focus on both these channels as they represent huge potential in the coming years.
AWL Agri Business is engaged in manufacturing of wide range of products, including edible oils, non-edible oil, de-oiled cake (DOC), vanaspati, specialty fats, food & FMCG products such as wheat, besan, atta, rice, and oleo chemicals, among others. Singapore-based Wilmar Group is the largest stakeholder in the company.
The company had reported 21% drop in net profit to Rs 245 crore despite a 22% increase in revenue from operations to Rs 17,605 crore in Q2 FY26 as compared with Q2 FY25.

Nevertheless, the company demonstrated agility in navigating external challenges, delivering a 7% sequential increase in sales volumes in Q2 over Q1.
Realization in edible oils business was higher due to YoY increase in the commodity prices, which also led to the softening of consumer demand in edible oils.
In the rice business, we delivered a strong turnaround in this financial year, achieving 30%+ volume growth in our branded Basmati business in both Q1 and Q2, along with improved overall profitability in the rice portfolio.
Quick commerce sales maintained strong momentum, delivering 86% YoY volume growth in Q2 and overall revenue from alternate channels (MT + Ecom) surpassed INR 4,400 crores over the last twelve months.
According to internal estimates, our market share in e-commerce (including quick commerce) stands at roughly 50% in Soya oil, approximately 40% in Mustard oil, around 30% in besan (gram flour), nearly 25% in Sunflower oil and in the low teens for wheat flour - reflecting strong consumer preference for the ‘Fortune’ brand.
Food & FMCG volumes have already surpassed edible oils in alternate channels, and we aim to drive deeper penetration in general trade to achieve double-digit volume growth for the segment.”
