DMart Reports 15% Revenue Growth in Q2 FY26, Net Profit Rises Modestly Year-on-Year
Avenue Supermarts Ltd., the parent company of the popular retail chain DMart, has announced its financial results for the second quarter of the fiscal year 2025-26, ending in September 2025. The company posted a standalone net profit of ₹746 crore, marking a 5.07% increase from the ₹710 crore profit recorded in the same quarter of the previous fiscal year.
Performance Breakdown: YoY vs. QoQ
On a year-on-year (YoY) basis, DMart demonstrated top-line growth. The company’s revenue from operations for the July-September quarter stood at ₹16,219 crore, a significant 15.43% jump from ₹14,050 crore in the corresponding period last year. Total income for the quarter also grew by 15.28% to ₹16,252 crore. However, this revenue growth was accompanied by a 16.02% rise in total expenses, which reached ₹15,249 crore, tempering the net profit growth.
While the annual comparison shows growth, the quarter-on-quarter (QoQ) figures reveal a sequential moderation. The net profit of ₹746 crore is a 10% decline from the ₹830 crore earned in the preceding quarter (April-June 2025). This dip in profitability came despite a slight 1.80% increase in operational revenue from the previous quarter’s ₹15,932 crore. The sequential pressure on profit appears to be driven by a 2.65% increase in total expenses compared to the prior quarter.
