Shoppers Stop Ltd. reported an improved operating performance for the quarter ended June 2026 (Q1FY27), with revenue and EBITDA registering healthy year-on-year growth even as the retailer remained in the red.
The company reported a consolidated net loss of Rs 14.3 crore for the June quarter, compared with a net loss of Rs 15.7 crore in the corresponding period last year, reflecting a modest improvement in profitability.
Revenue from operations rose 11.2% year-on-year to Rs 1,291 crore, up from Rs 1,161 crore in Q1FY26, driven by steady demand across its retail business.
At the operating level, earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) increased 9.2% YoY to Rs 187 crore, compared with Rs 172 crore in the year-ago period. However, the EBITDA margin slipped to 14.5% from 14.8%, indicating a marginal increase in operating costs despite higher sales.
