Bajaj Consumer Care Profit Jumps 84% in Q1 FY27

Bajaj Consumer Care reported record financial results for the first quarter of FY27, with consolidated net profit increasing by approximately 84% year-on-year to ₹70.7 crore. Revenue from operations rose to ₹341.5 crore, supported by robust domestic demand for its flagship Almond Drops Hair Oil and a recovery in international markets, specifically Nepal and Bangladesh. The company saw a broad-based recovery across urban and rural markets, with particular strength in small packs and sachets.

To sustain this growth, the company increased advertising and sales promotion expenditure by roughly 29% to approximately ₹49-50 crore, representing 14.6% of sales. Managing Director Naveen Pandey detailed a strategic shift toward digital channels and influencer-led marketing campaigns to maintain a competitive share of voice. The company also completed the operational integration of the Banjara’s natural beauty brand, which now accounts for about 5% of the business.

In other corporate developments, the Board of Directors appointed Jignesh Nagda as Company Secretary, Compliance Officer, and Key Managerial Personnel, effective July 24, 2026. Despite a surge in Light Liquid Paraffin prices, the company expects market corrections to begin in July. Following the financial announcement, shares of the company reached a 52-week high of ₹692 on the National Stock Exchange.
