Dabur India (ISIN INE016A01026) reported INR 37.64 billion in consolidated revenue for the first quarter of fiscal year 2027, up 10.6 percent year over year. On October 12, 2026, MarketsMOJO upgraded Dabur India from Sell to Hold as valuation measures improved.
Growth sets the starting point
The latest operating picture combines revenue growth with higher profitability. Dabur reported INR 5.86 billion in net profit for the first quarter of fiscal year 2027, a 15.3 percent increase from the comparable period, while adjusted EBITDA rose 11.0 percent to INR 7.41 billion, according to DSIJ on July 29, 2026.
The same research report said Anand Rathi Research maintained a Buy rating and cut its 12-month target from INR 590 to INR 550. That target remains a valuation reference, while input inflation and international operations were identified as factors that could affect margins.
What does the next report add?
Dabur issued a Q2 fiscal year 2027 update on October 6, 2026, pointing to double-digit consolidated revenue growth and double-digit profit growth expectations. The update also highlighted high-teens growth expectations in international markets and selected consumer categories, as reported by StockFin.
Three dates show the sequence
On July 29, 2026, Q1 fiscal year 2027 revenue was reported at INR 37.64 billion, up 10.6 percent year over year. On October 6, 2026, Dabur indicated double-digit Q2 fiscal year 2027 revenue growth. On October 12, 2026, MarketsMOJO upgraded its rating from Sell to Hold.
Next reporting date
Dabur scheduled a board meeting for November 4, 2026, to consider unaudited quarterly and half-year results for the period ended September 30, 2026, along with a possible interim dividend, according to StockFin. The date gives investors a clear checkpoint for testing the growth expectations in the October update.
Valuation remains the counterweight
Dabur India had a market capitalization of INR 671.4 billion as of October 19, 2026, with a 52-week range of INR 368.05 to INR 534.00. The valuation debate therefore sits alongside the operating recovery: earnings growth is improving, but Anand Rathi Research reduced its target by INR 40 while retaining its Buy rating.
