Diversified conglomerate ITC Ltd reported\u00a0a strong performance\u00a0for the third quarter ended December 31, 2025, with\u00a0consolidated\u00a0gross revenue rising 7.1% year-on-year to \u20b921,578 crore. Profit after tax before exceptional items rose 9.9% to \u20b95,284 crore, driven by continued momentum in FMCG, cigarettes, and agri-business segments.\u00a0<\/p>
The FMCG-Others segment recorded double-digit growth with revenue up 12.6% and segment PBIT surging 42% year-on-year. Staples, dairy, noodles, biscuits, personal care, and homecare categories led the charge. ITC also saw a 60% jump in revenue from its digital-first and organic brands including Yogabar, Prasuma, and 24 Mantra, alongside strong growth in e-commerce and modern trade channels.<\/p>
In the cigarettes segment, net revenue rose 7.9%, aided by volume-led growth and performance of differentiated and premium offerings. However, ITC flagged risks from a steep hike in cigarette taxes effective February 1, cautioning it could fuel illicit trade and negatively\u00a0impact\u00a0farmers, MSMEs, and government revenue. \u201cSuch a steep increase will provide further impetus to illicit trade and cause immense hardship and loss… to the Exchequer,\u201d the company said, noting India is already the 4th largest illicit cigarette market globally.\u00a0<\/p>
The agri-business posted a 6.3% revenue growth, led by exports of leaf tobacco and value-added products like coffee and frozen marine goods. Paperboards and packaging delivered an 11% increase in underlying profits despite a planned maintenance shutdown, with\u00a0initial\u00a0signs of improvement seen following the imposition of minimum import pricing on paperboard imports.\u00a0<\/p>
