Radico Khaitan Reports Profit Growth and Resumes Gulf Exports Amid Market Recovery

Radico Khaitan, a major Indian liquor manufacturer, reported a near doubling of its consolidated profit to Rs 179.46 crore in Q4 FY26, driven by a 15.5% rise in revenue and improved gross margins due to premiumisation and favorable raw material costs. The company resumed exports to the Gulf region after a halt caused by regional tensions, with growth in Africa, Asia-Pacific, and airport retail offsetting earlier disruptions. For FY26, net profit rose 75% to Rs 604.47 crore, supported by a 22.2% increase in total IMFL volume.
