Vijay Bansal, CMD of Cantabil Retail India, attributes growth to strong brand recall, robust SSG of 11.3 per cent, and expanding store network across India
Cantabil Retail India, one of India’s leading value fashion retailers, reported a 24 per cent year-on-year growth in revenue for the first quarter of FY26, reaching Rs 159 crore. Net profit for the quarter rose 29 per cent to Rs 14.7 crore, driven by robust same-store sales growth (SSG) of 11.3 per cent and steady operational execution.
The company’s Ebitda for the quarter also grew 24 per cent to Rs 49 crore, with margins holding strong at 30.8 per cent. The company now operates 605 exclusive brand outlets across the country, spanning a total retail area of 8.06 lakh sq. ft.
Commenting on the performance, Vijay Bansal, Chairman and Managing Director, said, “This strong start to the fiscal year reflects deepening consumer trust and the strength of our brand. Our differentiated value proposition—trend-led fashion with affordability—is resonating well across markets. With positive macro trends such as an above-normal monsoon, we are optimistic about the upcoming quarters.”
Cantabil also expects improving rural demand and discretionary spending to drive further momentum. Looking ahead, the company will continue investing in expansion, innovation, and customer experience, strengthening its leadership in India’s value fashion segment.
Founded in 1989, Cantabil is engaged in the design, manufacture, branding, and retailing of apparel and accessories under the CANTABIL brand. The company operates a 200,000 sq. ft. production facility in Bahadurgarh, Haryana, and retails exclusively through its 605 store network.
