Bajaj Consumer Care targets ₹500 crore growth portfolio expansion. The FMCG company aims to scale its non-core almond oil brands including Natyv Soul and Banjara's over three years, up from current ₹225 crore annual revenue. Management emphasized organic growth strategy rather than acquisitions, with Banjara's delivering double-digit growth in its first year. However, input cost pressures persist, with nearly 100% of the cost base facing inflation between 20-50% across categories. Rising plastic packaging costs from geopolitical tensions and elevated mustard and copra oil prices have prompted calibrated price increases and cost optimization efforts. Despite headwinds, Q4FY26 results showed strong performance with net profit more than doubling to ₹63.6 crore and revenue rising 30.4% year-on-year to ₹326.65 crore, while EBITDA surged 135% to ₹77 crore with consolidated margins at 23.7%.
