Tata Consumer Products Limited (TCPL), the Tata Group’s flagship consumer goods company, reported a strong third-quarter performance for December 2025, with net profit rising 38% year-on-year to ₹385 crore from ₹279 crore in the same period last year.
Revenue from operations grew about 15% to ₹5,112 crore, compared with ₹4,444 crore a year ago, reflecting healthy consumer demand across beverages and foods segments. The company said volume-led growth in key product categories drove the topline expansion.
The beverages portfolio, which includes tea, coffee, and ready-to-drink (RTD) beverages, performed particularly well. Coffee sales surged around 40%, while RTD products saw a 26% increase, marking the second consecutive quarter of double-digit growth. Tata Consumer’s tea segment also maintained steady growth across both domestic and international markets.
The foods business, including Tata Sampann staples like salt and pulses, also showed robust growth. New product launches and continued innovation in the portfolio helped sustain demand, with key categories recording double-digit expansion.
On the cost front, expenses rose moderately, but operating margins improved, supported by better efficiency and scale advantages. Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) saw a healthy increase, reflecting strong operational performance.
International operations contributed positively as well. Markets such as the U.S. and Canada showed strong growth in coffee, helping branded revenues outside India.
While the quarterly results highlight resilient demand and effective execution of growth strategies, some investors remained cautious, leading to mixed market reactions after the earnings announcement.
