Pidilite Industries posted a 36.63 per cent jump in consolidated net profit at Rs 584.15 crore for the March quarter of FY26, supported by strong volume-led growth and improved operating margins. The company had reported a consolidated net profit of Rs 427.52 crore during the corresponding quarter of the previous fiscal, according to a regulatory filing.
Revenue from operations climbed 13.24 per cent to Rs 3,648.16 crore in the January-March quarter, compared with Rs 3,221.52 crore in the same period last year. Total expenses during the quarter rose 9.23 per cent to Rs 2,861.51 crore.

Commenting on the performance, Managing Director Sudhanshu Vats said, “We have delivered strong mid-teens UVG and revenue growth with robust expansion in margins, underscoring the strength of our brands and business model”.
He said the Consumer and Bazaar business maintained its growth momentum, while the business-to-business vertical continued to progress steadily despite external headwinds.
“Looking ahead, we are confident of our disciplined execution as we navigate the current supply side environment. We expect the momentum in domestic demand to continue as we manage the potential impact on input costs in the year ahead,” he said.
Pidilite, he added, will continue to focus on profitable, volume-driven growth through investments in innovation, brand development and supply chain enhancement.
“This balanced approach will help us sustain momentum while mitigating risks from external volatility,” Vats added.
