Our revenue in Q1 FY26 grew by 16.2 per cent over the previous year. Profit after tax (PAT) grew by 2.1 per cent over the previous year. Two-year-old and older DMart stores grew by 7.1 per cent during Q1 FY26 as compared to Q1 FY25 : said Neville Noronha, CEO and Managing Director, Avenue Supermarts Limited.

The revenue growth impact of approximately 100-150 bps was primarily due to high deflation in many staples and non-food products. Gross margins are lower compared to the same period in the previous year, due to continued competitive intensity within the FMCG space : Noronha added.

The retail chain firm opened nine new stores during the quarter, taking the number to 424 as of June 30.
