FMCG major Nestle India on Wednesday reported a net profit of Rs 975 crore for the first quarter of FY27, registering a 48% growth compared with Rs 660 crore in the same quarter last year.The company’s revenue from operations for the quarter under review stood at Rs 6,378 crore, marking a 25% year-on-year (YoY) increase from Rs 5,096 crore, Nestle said in a regulatory filing.EBITDA for the quarter revenue came in at Rs 1,538 crore, 40% higher from Rs 1,100 crore in the corresponding quarter of the previous financial year. Margin for the quarter improved 250 basis points to 24.2% from 21.6% in Q1FY26.Nestle said commodity markets remain mixed. Coffee is expected to remain well supplied, supported by higher production in Brazil and Vietnam, although near-term volatility could persist due to fund activity and weather-related delays in Brazil’s harvest.Cocoa and sugar prices remain under pressure, with cocoa affected by erratic rainfall in key producing regions, while sugar prices have strengthened following lower-than-expected crop estimates. Uneven monsoon conditions linked to El Niño also pose a risk to the next crop.Edible oil prices remain stable but elevated, while wheat and milk prices are expected to stay range-bound. The protein complex, including dairy-based proteins, continues to face inflationary pressures as demand driven by nutrition and protein fortification trends grows faster than supply.
