New Delhi: Battery and flashlight maker Eveready Industries India Ltd on Saturday reported a 22.3 per cent year-on-year increase in its consolidated net profit to Rs 36.97 crore in the June quarter of FY27.

The company had posted a net profit of Rs 30.23 crore in the April-June period a year ago, the Burman family-promoted firm said in a regulatory filing.

Its revenue from operations increased by 8.97 per cent to Rs 407.71 crore in the June quarter of FY27. It was at Rs 374.14 crore in the corresponding quarter in the year-ago period.

This was the “seventh consecutive quarter of revenue growth, while maintaining stable EBITDA margins despite inflation in commodities and other input costs,” said Eveready Industries in its earnings statement.

Expenses of Eveready Industries have gone up 7.13 per cent to Rs 357.03 crore in the reporting quarter.

Eveready Industries’ total income in the latest June quarter was at Rs 407.97 crore, up 8.34 per cent year-on-year.

Commenting on the results, its CEO Anirban Banerjee said: “We continue to see healthy topline momentum across channels and key segments, and expect this growth trajectory to continue.” However, he also mentioned that commodity prices, input costs and currency movements remain key pressure points.

“We are closely monitoring macro developments and taking calibrated actions to protect profitability and maintain margin stability. At the same time, we remain focused on strengthening our product portfolio, expanding market presence and driving sustainable growth,” Banerjee added.
