Emami's Q4FY26 net profit fell 11.7% to ₹143.17 crore on 3.9% revenue decline, hit by weak summer season and West Asia disruptions. Gross margins expanded 250 bps to 68.4%; non-summer domestic business grew 11%.

Why this matters

Third consecutive signal flagging Emami's Q4 weakness, with the summer portfolio miss and West Asia drag offsetting an 11% rise in the non-summer domestic business.
