Godrej Consumer Q2 Profit Rises 14% Amid Margin Pressure and Inflation
Godrej Consumer Products Ltd reported a 13.8% year-on-year rise in consolidated net profit to Rs 523 crore for Q2 FY27, driven by 8% volume growth and 19% revenue increase to Rs 4,413 crore. Despite strong sales across India, Indonesia, and Africa, margins contracted due to elevated commodity costs, leading to continued price hikes in soaps and detergents. The company maintained its FY27 guidance for high-single-digit volume growth and double-digit revenue and EBITDA growth, while focusing on cost savings and market share gains amid inflationary pressures.
