Our Bakery and adjacency portfolio – alongside the International business, registered strong acceleration complementing the Biscuit growth. Our brand investments remained focused on driving consumer relevance through cultural and digital-first campaigns.
Our festive-led activations — such as the Bourbon collaboration for Ganesh Chaturthi and the 50-50 Cheeze Dipped campaign for Onam — unlocked deep regional affinity, ably supported by our efficient on-ground execution across "Many Indias", while targeted moment marketing and platform-specific activations on brands like Little Hearts, Winkin’ Cow, and NutriChoice deepened connections across diverse consumer cohorts.

We remain watchful of the inflationary pressures while staying agile in our actions to drive sustainable, profitable growth accentuated by strong execution, innovations and disciplined cost efficiency.”Shares of Britannia Industries Ltd ended at ₹5,000.00, up by ₹83.40, or 1.70%, on the BSE.
