Bajaj Consumer Care Q2 Net Profit Rises 67% to ₹70.2 Crore as Revenue Climbs 25.7%

Bajaj Consumer Care reported a 67% year-on-year rise in second-quarter net profit to ₹70.2 crore, compared with ₹42 crore a year earlier, as revenue grew 25.7% to ₹333 crore from ₹265 crore. CNBC-TV18 reported the results on October 14, 2026. The details were reported by CNBCTV18.

Bajaj Consumer Care's Q2 Profit and Revenue Growth

Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation rose 71% to ₹82 crore, against ₹48 crore in the corresponding quarter last year. EBITDA margin expanded to 24.7% from 18.1% a year ago.

The company said its domestic business continued to deliver robust growth, with revenue rising more than 30% in both Q2 FY27 and the first half of the financial year, supported by strong double-digit unit volume growth. Price-point packs continued to outperform the broader portfolio and remained a key growth driver, and Bajaj Consumer Care introduced an integrated campaign with revised positioning towards the end of the quarter.

General trade delivered growth in the mid-twenties in Q2, while first-half growth remained in the high twenties. Rural demand edged ahead of urban demand during the quarter, with both markets recording robust and closely matched growth. Organised trade grew in the high twenties, outpacing general trade, and e-commerce and modern trade delivered broad-based growth across customers and sub-channels, with quick commerce continuing to be the fastest-growing channel in that segment.

The international business continued to grow significantly faster than the company average. The rest of the world business sustained its turnaround, while Nepal and the Gulf Cooperation Council and Africa markets recorded very strong growth. Bangladesh continued to deliver growth in the teens despite a challenging operating environment.

Bajaj Consumer Care's Commodity Cost Pressures

The company flagged elevated prices across key commodities amid geopolitical tensions and supply-side pressures. Light liquid paraffin prices remained high due to the ongoing conflict in West Asia and elevated global freight costs. Refined mustard oil prices also rose as the conflict disrupted oilseed supply chains, in line with broader increases across edible oils. Copra prices increased during Q2 amid expectations of an El Niño impact in the third quarter.

Bajaj Consumer Care's Growth Portfolio and Banjara's Deal
