What the board did
The board of Britannia Industries Ltd met on 5 November 2026, starting at 12:30 P.M. IST and concluding at 5:15 P.M. IST, and approved the unaudited consolidated and standalone financial results for the quarter and half year ended 30 September 2026. Chairman Mr. Nusli N. Wadia was authorised to sign the results submitted to the stock exchanges. The results were reviewed and recommended by the Audit Committee.
Auditor's review conclusion
- Statutory auditors Walker Chandiok & Co LLP carried out a limited review of the consolidated unaudited results.
- The review report is unmodified: nothing came to the auditors' attention that causes them to believe the statement contains any material misstatement or has not disclosed what is required.
- A limited review is substantially narrower in scope than a full audit, so the auditors do not express an audit opinion.
Consolidated results (Rs. in crore)
- Revenue from operations: 5,597.79 for the quarter, against 4,840.63 in the same quarter a year earlier; 10,597.76 for the half year, against 9,462.85.
- Total income: 5,671.30 for the quarter, against 4,892.74.

Group scope
The consolidated statement covers the company, its subsidiaries, associate companies and a joint venture company, spread across India, Mauritius, Dubai (UAE), Oman, Nepal, Bangladesh, Egypt, Uganda and Kenya. The group operates as one reportable segment, "Foods".
How to read this
These are unaudited interim numbers for a single quarter and half year, reviewed but not audited, and they cover a festive-quarter period for a foods company. The headline revenue and profit lines are the ones to track against the auditor-reviewed figures for the comparable periods, while the jump in inventories and in current borrowings compared with 31.03.2026 is a balance-sheet movement to follow alongside the cash flow lines.
