Britannia Industries Q2 Results Live : Britannia Industries announced its Q2 results on November 11, 2024, reporting a topline increase of 5.29% year-over-year (YoY). However, the company faced challenges as its profit fell by 9.55% compared to the same quarter last year.
On a quarter-over-quarter (QoQ) basis, revenue showed a positive trend, growing by 9.82%, while profit saw a modest increase of 5.1% when compared to the previous quarter. This reflects a mixed performance in the short term.
The financial statement highlighted a significant rise in Selling, General & Administrative expenses, which surged by 15.02% QoQ and a staggering 45.29% YoY. This increase in costs may have contributed to the decline in profit margins.

Earnings per share (EPS) for Q2 was reported at ₹22.06, marking a decrease of 9.61% YoY. This decline in EPS underscores the impact of rising costs and competitive pressures on the company’s bottom line.
