Biocon Reports Q4 Revenue Growth Amid Net Profit Decline and Strategic Shift

Biocon Ltd reported a 10-13% year-on-year revenue increase to around Rs 4,517 crore in Q4 FY26 and Rs 16,927 crore for FY26, driven by growth in biosimilars and steady CRDMO business. However, consolidated net profit declined sharply by 57-63% in Q4 to Rs 126-199 crore and by over 70% for FY26, impacted by exceptional charges including labor code costs and restructuring. The company is shifting focus to margin expansion, capacity utilization, and integration of biosimilars with generics to strengthen its global footprint. A final dividend of Rs 0.50 per share was recommended.
