For Q2FY25, BRIT’s revenue was INR 46,676 Mn, up 5.3% YoY (+9.8% QoQ), missed our estimates by 2.6%. Revenue growth was driven by high single-digit volume growth.

EBITDA was INR 7,834 Mn, down by 10.2% YoY (+3.9% QoQ), missed our estimates, due to higher-than-expected raw material cost and employee cost. EBITDA margin contracted by 290 bps YoY (-95 bps) to 16.8%. Adj. PAT was INR 5,316 Mn, down 9.5% YoY (+0.2% QoQ), missed our estimates, mainly due to poor operating performance.
