Costa Coffee India, operated by Devyani International, reduced its outlet network to 198 in FY26 from 220, its first decline in over five years. Revenue nevertheless rose 7% to ₹212.5 crore, indicating a shift toward selective expansion and higher sales per café.
Why this matters
The retrenchment reverses Costa Coffee India's prior expansion pattern, when it reached 179 stores and planned 60–70 annual additions, while its PVR Inox partnership targeted premium-footprint growth.
