Honasa Consumer Limited has provided a quarterly update on its operating performance for the quarter ended March 31, 2026. The company anticipates delivering strong growth in the late twenties on a reported basis for Q4 FY26, after adjusting for changes in revenue recognition policy by the Flipkart group. This growth is expected to be driven by strong performance across its focus categories. Mamaearth, the company's largest brand, is projected to achieve teen growth during the quarter, continuing its momentum and showing improving brand strength metrics. The younger brands, including The Derma Co., Aqualogica, BBlunt, Dr. Sheth’s, Staze, and Lumineve, are also expected to contribute significantly, with a projected growth in the mid-twenties. The offline channel, encompassing General Trade and Modern Trade, is identified as a key growth driver, with expectations of sustained strong momentum due to improved distribution coverage. Furthermore, this quarter marks the first full consolidation of the acquisition, BTM Ventures Private Limited (parent of Reginald Men and Molecular Company), which is also anticipated to perform strongly. Honasa Consumer Limited expects to maintain its overall operating profit margin profile in Q4 FY26, benefiting from leverage in marketing spends and fixed overheads. The company remains vigilant about the evolving geopolitical environment and is committed to implementing proactive measures to mitigate any potential impacts on its operations and cost structure. This update is provisional and subject to audit, and a detailed financial update will follow the Board's approval of the Q4 FY26 financial results.
