All four product groups - confectionery, powdered and liquid beverages, prepared dishes and cooking aids, and milk products and nutrition- posted strong double-digit growth during the quarter, supported by robust double-digit growth across distribution channels. The company said its e-commerce business maintained strong growth, with quick commerce emerging as a key growth driver. Performance was supported by improved product availability, a platform-specific product portfolio, targeted on- and off-platform marketing investments, and strong consumer demand during key festive periods. The company also reported double-digit growth in organized trade, aided by stronger in-store execution, consumer engagement initiatives, enhanced product visibility, and continued expansion of its retail footprint. On the exports front, Nestl' India expanded its international presence by introducing new MAGGI noodle variants in Canada, larger sauce packs for the HoReCa segment, and a broader MAGGI portfolio across Europe. Following the launch of NESCAF' Sunrise in the UAE and Saudi Arabia, exports commenced to Lebanon. The company was also awarded 4-Star Export House status in recognition of its growing export contribution. Commenting on commodity trends, the company said coffee supply is expected to remain healthy despite short-term weather-related volatility, while cocoa and sugar remain under pressure, with cocoa impacted by erratic rainfall across key producing origins and sugar strengthening on lower-than-expected crop estimates, with uneven monsoon conditions linked to El Ni'o posing a risk to the next crop. Edible oil prices remain stable at elevated levels. Wheat and milk are expected to remain range-bound, while the protein complex (including dairy based proteins) continues to face inflationary pressure as demand from nutrition and protein-fortification trends outpaces supply expansion. Manish Tiwary, chairman and managing director, Nestl' India, said: 'delivered a strong quarter with sales growth of 25.4% led by volume growth. Sales stood at Rs 6,363.3 crore, powered by continued consumer trust in our brands and a strong focus on execution. Exports delivered 35.6% growth, despite ongoing geopolitical headwinds. During the quarter, we further accelerated operational cost savings, and continued to step up investments behind our brands with advertising spends increasing by over 40%, with a healthy EBIDTA margin of 24.2%.
