Quarter overview
Quarterly earnings analysis
Prataap Snacks Limited delivered a record financial performance in Q1 FY27, achieving its highest-ever quarterly revenue from operations at Rs. 492.50 crore (Rs. 4,904.3 million), representing a 20% year-on-year increase compared to the same period last year.
s in its investor presentation, profit after tax (PAT) grew significantly by 258% year-on-year to Rs. 2.47 crore (Rs. 24.7 million), driven by robust operating performance and improved demand trends across core markets.
The top-line expansion was broad-based, propelled by sustained momentum in the company's Namkeen and potato chips portfolios, encouraging consumer reception of newly launched products, and deeper distribution penetration across growth regions.
During the quarter, operations faced notable inflationary headwinds across key raw materials—particularly palm oil and packaging laminates, which rose by approximately 20% year-on-year—alongside higher freight and packaging expenses driven by external geopolitical pressures.
Management partially mitigated input cost pressures through disciplined cost optimization, productivity enhancements, and calibrated price-cum-grammage interventions, enabling the company to safeguard gross margins and grow operating EBITDA.
A key strategic development during the quarter was the board's approval for the acquisition of RLOP Food Processing Pvt. Ltd., securing long-term leasehold land rights for a proposed manufacturing facility to support future capacity expansion and efficiency goals.
Profit after tax was ₹2.47 Cr for the reported quarter. EPS was ₹1.03 for the reported quarter.
