Nestlé India has reported its financial performance for FY25, posting a net profit of ₹3,314.5 crore, up from ₹3,196.2 crore in FY24. However, the March quarter (Q4 FY25) saw a 6.6% decline in consolidated profit to ₹873 crore, compared to ₹934 crore in Q4 FY24.
Despite the quarterly drop in profit, revenue showed growth. Consolidated revenue rose 4.4% to ₹5,503 crore in Q4 FY25, compared to ₹5,267 crore in the same quarter last year. For the full year, total sales stood at ₹20,077.5 crore.
The company’s standalone Q4 profit came in at ₹885 crore, slightly below last year’s ₹934 crore. Nestlé India attributed the quarterly performance to strong category-specific growth, particularly in beverages and confectionery.
Chairman and Managing Director Suresh Narayanan highlighted that domestic sales surpassed ₹5,235 crore—Nestlé’s highest ever in a single quarter. He noted double-digit growth in beverages, led by Nescafé, and strong single-digit growth in confectionery driven by KitKat.
Maggi products returned to volume growth, contributing to mid-single-digit growth in the prepared dishes and cooking aids segment. Maggi Masala-Ae-Magic also performed well.
The pet care division saw the highest-ever growth since its integration into Nestlé India, delivering high double-digit growth. Additionally, the Out-of-Home (OOH) business registered double-digit growth and is emerging as one of the company’s fastest-growing verticals.
Overall, while Q4 profit saw a dip, the company’s diversified portfolio and strong domestic demand contributed to a positive full-year performance.
