Nykaa reported a fourfold increase in net profit to approximately Rs 79 crore [1] for the quarter ended March 2026 [2].
This surge in profitability signals a successful pivot toward higher-margin private labels and a reduction in losses within the company's fashion segment. The results suggest that the beauty e-commerce leader is scaling its operational efficiency while maintaining strong consumer demand.
Revenue for the period climbed 28% year-over-year to Rs 2,648 crore [1]. The company's EBITDA rose 67% to reach Rs 223 crore [3]. This growth was supported by a strategic shift toward own-brand sales, which saw an increase of 49% [4].
Margins for the company expanded to 8.4% [4]. These gains were driven by the strength of the beauty segment, and a sharp narrowing of losses in the fashion division [2].
While some reports listed revenue at Rs 2,600 crore [3], official financial data indicates the figure reached Rs 2,648 crore [1]. Similarly, net profit is recorded between Rs 78.8 crore [5] and Rs 79 crore [1].
“Net profit grew 4× YoY to about Rs 79 crore”
Nykaa's financial trajectory indicates a transition from aggressive customer acquisition to a focus on profitability. By increasing the share of its own brands, the company is reducing its reliance on third-party margins and creating a more sustainable revenue stream. The narrowing of fashion losses further suggests that the company is optimizing its multi-category strategy without compromising its core beauty business.
