Zydus Wellness Ltd reported a consolidated profit after tax (PAT) of just ₹5 crore for the second quarter of FY27, despite registering a 75 per cent growth in revenue from operations to ₹1,123 crore during the September quarter.
The company had reported a loss of ₹53 crore in the corresponding quarter of the previous financial year. The relatively modest bottomline came amid exceptional expenses of ₹3.42 crore during the quarter, including costs related to the liquidation of its subsidiary Naturell (India) Pvt Ltd and the acquisition of Comfort Click Ltd. The company also recognised a one-time impact of ₹66 million, or ₹6.6 crore, arising from the implementation of the new labour codes. Of the total exceptional expenses, ₹2.45 crore related to the acquisition of Comfort Click, while ₹97 lakh was incurred towards the liquidation of Naturell India on a going-concern basis. The exceptional items totalled ₹3.42 crore for the September quarter.
On the business front, Zydus Wellness reported strong growth across several of its consumer brands. Its skin and hair care portfolio grew 37.5 per cent, with Everyuth continuing to post double-digit growth. The brand strengthened its position in facial cleansing and retained leadership in the scrubs and peel-off categories. Sugar Free also recorded double-digit growth, strengthening its position in the sugar substitute segment. Nutralite delivered double-digit growth despite commodity-related headwinds, while RiteBite Max Protein continued to expand its presence in the protein-snacking category. Complan also registered double-digit growth, outperforming the category trend, supported by the performance of its NutriGro Kids portfolio.
