Dodla Dairy reported Q2 FY26 consolidated revenue of ₹1,019 crore, up 2.1% YoY, with EBITDA margin of 9.1% and PAT margin of 6.4%. Growth was impacted by a sharp decline in bulk SMP/butter sales (₹28 crore vs ₹165 crore YoY), but core business (ex-Osam and bulk) grew 13%. Osam contributed ₹52.6 crore for two months. Gross margin improved 220bps to 27.7% due to better product mix. Liquid milk volume grew 12.6% YoY, while value-added products (ex-bulk) rose 24.2%. Procurement costs increased to ₹37.29/litre (vs ₹34.64 last year) due to lean season and erratic rainfall. Management guided for 8-10% EBITDA margins in H2, with India standalone revenue growth of 5-6%. Key risk: continued supply pressure from weather could keep procurement costs elevated and compress margins.
डोडला डेयरी ने दूसरी तिमाही में 1,019 करोड़ रुपये की कमाई की, जो पिछले साल से 2.1% ज्यादा है। कंपनी का मुनाफा मार्जिन 6.4% रहा। बल्क एसएमपी और मक्खन की बिक्री घटने से कमाई पर असर पड़ा, लेकिन मुख्य कारोबार (ओसाम और बल्क को छोड़कर) 13% बढ़ा। दूध की बिक्री 12.6% और वैल्यू-एडेड उत्पादों की बिक्री 24.2% बढ़ी। कच्चे दूध की कीमत बढ़कर 37.29 रुपये प्रति लीटर हो गई, जो पिछले साल 34.64 रुपये थी। कंपनी को उम्मीद है कि दूसरी छमाही में मुनाफा मार्जिन 8-10% रहेगा। मौसम की मार से दूध की कीमतें ऊंची रह सकती हैं, जिससे मुनाफा कम हो सकता है।
