Colgate-Palmolive (India) Ltd on Wednesday reported a 6 per cent decline in net profit to Rs 355 crore in the fourth quarter ended March 31, 2025, impacted by lower sales. The company had posted a net profit of Rs 379.82 crore in the corresponding quarter of the previous fiscal, Colgate-Palmolive (India) Ltd said in a regulatory filing. Total income in the fourth quarter stood at Rs 1,481.57 crore as against Rs 1,512.66 crore, it added. For the quarter, the company reported net sales of Rs 1,452 crore as compared to Rs 1,481 crore in the same period of the previous fiscal.

By Aditya Bhagchandani Published on May 22, 2025, 09:22 IST Shares of Colgate-Palmolive (India) Ltd fell 3.97% to ₹2,553.70 on Thursday, following the announcement of its Q4FY25 results which showed weaker-than-expected earnings.

The company's net profit for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, declined 6.5% year-on-year to ₹355 crore, missing CNBC-TV18's estimate of ₹358 crore.

EBITDA for the quarter came in at ₹498 crore, a 6.4% drop compared to ₹532.2 crore in the same period last year. EBITDA margin narrowed to 34% from 35.7% YoY, though it exceeded the analyst forecast of 32.6%. Despite the weak Q4 showing, the company posted a healthy performance for the full fiscal year. Net sales for FY25 rose 6.3% YoY to ₹5,999 crore, and net profit grew 8.5% to ₹1,437 crore. Domestic sales increased 5.6%, with toothpaste reporting mid-single-digit value growth and toothbrush sales maintaining momentum.
