Avenue Supermarts Reports Q2 Profit Growth Amid Margin Pressures and Share Decline
Avenue Supermarts reported a 7.6% year-on-year net profit increase to ₹803.6 crore in Q2FY27, with revenue rising 18.4% to ₹19,206 crore. Despite growth, shares hit a fresh 52-week low amid margin pressures from wage inflation, higher operating costs, and competition from quick-commerce firms. EBITDA margin contracted by around 30 basis points year-on-year, leading brokerages like Motilal Oswal and ICICI Securities to express cautious outlooks, citing limited near-term margin expansion and operational challenges.
