HUL’s June-quarter revenue rises 10%, while profit slips 3%
Hindustan Unilever reported consolidated June-quarter revenue of Rs 17,341 crore, up 10.05% year on year, while net profit fell 3% to Rs 2,673 crore, largely reflecting a prior-year tax-credit base.
HUL reported a mixed June quarter, with revenue rising 10% but profit down 3% due to a prior-year tax credit. Godfrey Phillips’ profit fell 44% despite revenue doubling, as sharply higher tobacco excise duty weighed on earnings.
Why this matters
The result follows signals that HUL Q1 profit slipped 2% despite 10% revenue growth, costs pressured margins, and HUL missed Q1FY27 estimates.
Retail-company signals are accelerating, up 390667% QoQ.
