For the quarter ended June 30, 2026 (Q1FY27), the company reported consolidated revenue from operations of ₹2,045.74 crore, compared with ₹1,840.58 crore in the same period last year. Profitability improved alongside revenue, supported by higher operating leverage and a better margin profile.

Revenue rises to ₹2,045.74 crore
ABLBL’s consolidated revenue from operations came in at ₹2,045.74 crore in Q1FY27, up 11% year-on-year. The company linked the growth to strong retail performance, along with continued expansion across channels. It also highlighted double-digit retail LTL growth and e-commerce expansion as contributors to the quarter’s operating momentum.
While the company’s topline improved, the broader narrative in the results release focused on the quality of growth, with margin expansion and improving profitability moving in tandem with revenue gains.
EBITDA improves, margin at 16.0%
EBITDA increased 14% year-on-year to ₹327 crore in Q1FY27. The EBITDA margin stood at 16.0%, indicating improved operating efficiency during the quarter. The company attributed this improvement to operational leverage, helped by growth in both the core lifestyle portfolio and the emerging businesses.
Management commentary in the release also pointed to “significant margin improvement” in the emerging business segment, which supported consolidated profitability for the quarter.
Profit rises; PBT up 39% and PAT up 21%
Profit before tax (PBT) rose 39% year-on-year to ₹39 crore. Net profit after tax (PAT) increased 21% year-on-year to ₹29 crore on a consolidated basis. The company positioned this as a sign of improving profitability after factoring in operating gains during the quarter.
On a standalone basis, net profit stood at ₹31.20 crore, up from ₹21.40 crore in the corresponding quarter last year.
EPS improves on both consolidated and standalone basis
Basic earnings per share (EPS) improved on both reporting bases. Consolidated EPS rose to ₹0.24 from ₹0.20 in Q1FY26. Standalone EPS increased to ₹0.26 from ₹0.18 in the year-ago quarter. The EPS improvement aligns with the year-on-year increase in net profit for the period.
Segment performance: lifestyle brands and emerging businesses
ABLBL said the lifestyle brands segment grew 10% in Q1FY27, while emerging businesses grew 19%. The company linked the combined performance to better scale benefits and operating leverage.
