Incorporated in 1986, Patanjali Foods Limited is one of the leading edible oil companies in the country. The company operates in the Edible Oils, FMCG, and Wind Power Generation segments. It sells products under different brands like Patanjali, Ruchi Gold, Nutrela, Dant Kanti, Mahakosh, Sunrich, etc.
During the last financial year, the edible oil business contributed the maximum ₹29,133 crore to the total income from operations.
"The FMCG segment generated annual revenues of ₹11,188.25 crores, growing by 19.95 per cent YoY and accounting for 27.60 per cent of Revenue from Operations (excluding inter-segment revenue)," Patanjali Foods said in a statement.
"In the March quarter, the domestic demand landscape maintained its momentum and remained structurally strong. Consumption trends were supported by accelerated channel off-takes post GST-related normalisation," said Sanjeev Asthana, Chief Executive Officer, Patanjali Foods.
Rural demand maintained its resilience while urban consumption also saw an uptick, aided by recent tax benefits and the ease of use offered by alternative distribution channels, he added.
"A short-term uptick in offtake was observed in March. The healthy performance of the edible oil business was a key contributor to Q4FY26 results, reflecting the effectiveness of the Company's strategic initiatives and execution," Asthana said.
