Shares of Gillette India Ltd. rallied over 6% on Wednesday after the company reported a strong set of Q4FY26 results. The stock was trading at Rs 8,366 apiece at 1:30 pm.
For Q4FY26, Gillette India's revenue rose 3.2% year-on-year to Rs 792 crore, compared with Rs 768 crore in the same quarter last year. The Ebitda (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortisation) increased to Rs 277 crore from Rs 226 crore, while the Ebitda margin expanded sharply to 35% from 29.4%, signalling better cost control and operational efficiency.
The net profit climbed 21.3% year-on-year to Rs 193 crore, against Rs 159 crore in the corresponding quarter. However, other income declined to Rs 5 crore from Rs 11.7 crore, partly limiting the overall earnings growth.
The company's board also recommended a final dividend of Rs 60 per share (Nominal Value of Rs. 10/- each) for FY26. The dividend shall be paid on or before Sept 18, 2026, on approval of the Members at the ensuing 42nd Annual General Meeting.
Considering the interim dividend of Rs 180 per share (including one-time special dividend of Rs 60 per Equity Share), the total dividend payout for the fiscal will be Rs 240 per share, subject to shareholder approval, the company said in its regulatory filing.
