Indigo Paints reports a remarkable 60% jump in Q1 FY27 net profit to ₹41.7 crore, fueled by robust sales growth and improved margins. Revenue up 19.7%.
Indigo Paints demonstrated a strong financial performance for the first quarter ending June 30, 2026 (Q1 FY27), with consolidated net profit surging by 60% year-on-year.
The company’s net profit reached ₹41.7 crore, a significant rise from ₹26.1 crore recorded in the corresponding quarter of the previous fiscal year. Consolidated revenue from operations also saw a healthy increase.
