Nifty FMCG - Foods Index — Constituents & Performance

The FMCG - Foods companies below are the listed Indian FMCG - Foods universe this page tracks — the same constituent set people search for as the Nifty FMCG - Foods index. Every figure is equal-weighted across those companies, so one large constituent cannot set the reading. Each number carries its own as-of date.

The sector itself · before any single company

Participation is spreading downward — the mid and small companies added more this month than the large ones did.

Both lines start at 200 in the same week, so the distance between them is the whole story: the sector line is an equal-weighted index of its 6 companies. The bars underneath are trailing 12-month earnings per share, one bar per reported quarter, each member rebased to 100 at the start and the sector taking the median — so a price line pulling away from flat bars is a re-rating, not earnings. A bar turns red when that figure is lower than the quarter before. Rules are fixed and applied identically everywhere on this site: ahead by 5% or more over three months, or behind by 20% or more over a year while earnings grew 20% or more. Hover any point to read both values and the gap. This is a description of what the numbers did, not advice.

The central tension: the companies with the most scale are not necessarily the companies creating the most change.

Start with scale. Then earnings trajectory. Then business quality. Only after those three agree should price leadership carry much weight.

4-Factor Sector Score

An additive sector-relative research score. The four displayed point contributions always equal the total: Growth & earnings (35), Capital efficiency (25), Valuation (20), and Relative strength (20). Missing or stale evidence is absorbed inside the affected factor, never applied as a hidden adjustment.

Growth & earnings · 35%Capital efficiency · 25%Valuation · 20%Relative strength · 20%
Britannia Industries Ltd has the strongest current balance of earnings trajectory, business quality, valuation and price confirmation, with 89.6% evidence confidence.
The Bombay Burmah Trading Corporation Ltd looks inexpensive relative to peers or its own history, but its earnings trajectory has not yet earned the valuation signal.

Missing observations are not scored as bad. Their missing weight lowers confidence and pulls the final score toward neutral. PEG is guarded: positive earnings, positive 5–60% three-year EPS growth, and a positive P/E are required.

Revenue Scale & Growth Durability

Patanjali Foods Ltd has the highest Revenue among the 6 FMCG - Foods companies compared here, at ₹40,183 crore. Tata Consumer Products Ltd is next at ₹20,861 crore. Sundrop Brands Ltd has the highest Revenue growth at 72.4%, so level and change sit with different companies. 6 of 6 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.

What the numbers say: Patanjali Foods Ltd is the scale leader at ₹40,183 crore, 92.6% ahead of Tata Consumer Products Ltd. Sundrop Brands Ltd's growth is 72.4% from a ₹1,549 crore base, with 19 reported observations in the 20-quarter window. Treat the growth leader as an acceleration candidate, not as equally proven scale.

LeaderPatanjali Foods Ltd · ₹40,183 crore
Gap92.6% versus #2 · Tata Consumer Products Ltd
Persistence7/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage6/6 companies · 110 observations

Investor read: Patanjali Foods Ltd is the scale benchmark; Sundrop Brands Ltd is the acceleration watch. Promote the challenger only if growth persists and converts into margin and returns.

This conclusion weakens if: Patanjali Foods Ltd's growth falls below Sundrop Brands Ltd's for two consecutive comparable reports while operating margin also compresses.

Revenue is compared on a common reported-currency basis. Growth is year-on-year, so seasonality does not masquerade as progress.

LeaderBritannia Industries Ltd · 18%
Gap5.9% versus #2 · The Bombay Burmah Trading Corporation Ltd
Persistence3/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage6/6 companies · 115 observations

Investor read: Britannia Industries Ltd sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current margin change signal.

Operating margin compares operating profit with revenue. Improvement is measured in percentage points, not percentage growth.

LeaderBritannia Industries Ltd · ₹2,537 crore
Gap1.5% versus #2 · The Bombay Burmah Trading Corporation Ltd
Persistence7/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage6/6 companies · 110 observations

Investor read: Britannia Industries Ltd sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current profit growth signal.

Net profit is the residual after operating costs, interest and tax. Growth off a loss or near-zero base is excluded from the fastest-grower rank.

Capacity Spending & Returns On It

Mrs Bectors Food Specialities Ltd has the highest CAPEX among the 6 FMCG - Foods companies compared here, at ₹42 crore. Patanjali Foods Ltd is next at ₹8 crore. The same company also holds the highest CAPEX intensity, at 8.5%. 2 of 6 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.

What the numbers say: Mrs Bectors Food Specialities Ltd reports ₹42 crore of CAPEX; Mrs Bectors Food Specialities Ltd has the highest covered intensity at 8.5%. Coverage is only 2 of 6 companies and 4 reported observations, so this is partial evidence—not a complete sector rank.

LeaderMrs Bectors Food Specialities Ltd · ₹42 crore
Gap425% versus #2 · Patanjali Foods Ltd
Persistence3/3 recent comparable periods
Coverage2/6 companies · 4 observations

Investor read: Use the CAPEX rank as a diligence queue. Verify commissioning, utilization, cash conversion and post-investment ROCE before treating spend as value creation.

This conclusion weakens if: CAPEX rises without higher utilization, operating cash flow or incremental returns.

CAPEX is cash spent on property, plant, equipment and other reported capital assets. CAPEX intensity divides that spend by revenue; high intensity is a reinvestment signal, not proof that the reinvestment will earn attractive returns.

Withheld from this chart: The Bombay Burmah Trading Corporation Ltd (BBTC) — its two data sources disagree by up to 13% on reported income across 13 comparable periods, so its derived ratios are withheld. A figure two sources cannot agree on is not drawn — the gap is a decision, not missing data.

Annual capital allocation · 10-year view
6/6 capacity base · 6/6 OCF · 6/6 CAPEX · 6/6 FCF

Capacity base is net fixed assets plus capital work in progress, straight off the reported balance sheet. It is not cash spent, so it answers a narrower question than CAPEX — but it is reported for companies whose cash-flow CAPEX is not published, which is why it leads here. Missing years remain blank; annual values are never relabelled as quarters.

Debt Load & Balance-Sheet Headroom

Sundrop Brands Ltd has the lowest Gross debt among the 6 FMCG - Foods companies compared here, at ₹13 crore. Mrs Bectors Food Specialities Ltd is next at ₹191 crore. Tata Consumer Products Ltd has the lowest Net debt at ₹1,498 crore net cash, so level and change sit with different companies.

What the numbers say: Tata Consumer Products Ltd has the clearest covered balance-sheet capacity with ₹1,498 crore net cash and gross debt of ₹2,820 crore. Absolute debt alone does not identify the strongest balance sheet because company scale differs; net debt and debt-to-equity carry more information.

LeaderSundrop Brands Ltd · ₹13 crore
Gap93.2% versus #2 · Mrs Bectors Food Specialities Ltd
Persistence5/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage6/6 companies · 100 observations

Investor read: Prioritize net-cash capacity and leverage relative to operating scale, not the smallest absolute rupee debt.

This conclusion weakens if: Net debt rises faster than revenue and profit for two consecutive reported periods.

Gross debt shows contractual borrowings. Net debt subtracts reported cash; a negative value means net cash. Lower debt can create capacity, but should be read against the scale and capital intensity of the business.

Return On Capital Employed

Britannia Industries Ltd has the highest ROCE among the 6 FMCG - Foods companies compared here, at 56%. The Bombay Burmah Trading Corporation Ltd is next at 33%. The same company also holds the highest ROCE change, at +2.7 percentage points. 6 of 6 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.

What the numbers say: Britannia Industries Ltd leads ROCE at 56%, 23 percentage points above The Bombay Burmah Trading Corporation Ltd. Britannia Industries Ltd has the strongest latest improvement at +2.7 percentage points. Read the leader beside the density of its reported history: a sparse high return is a candidate; a repeated high return is evidence of durability.

LeaderBritannia Industries Ltd · 56%
Gap69.7% versus #2 · The Bombay Burmah Trading Corporation Ltd
Persistence3/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage6/6 companies · 72 observations

Investor read: Britannia Industries Ltd sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current roce change signal.

ROCE asks how much operating return the business earns on the capital employed. Direction matters, but a single exceptional year should not be mistaken for durability.

Withheld from this chart: The Bombay Burmah Trading Corporation Ltd (BBTC) — its two data sources disagree by up to 13% on reported income across 13 comparable periods, so its derived ratios are withheld. A figure two sources cannot agree on is not drawn — the gap is a decision, not missing data.

Valuation Against Growth & Quality

Patanjali Foods Ltd has the lowest Guarded PEG among the 6 FMCG - Foods companies compared here, at 0.67×. Tata Consumer Products Ltd is next at 3.39×. The Bombay Burmah Trading Corporation Ltd has the lowest P/E at 8.6×, so level and change sit with different companies. 5 of 6 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.

What the numbers say: Patanjali Foods Ltd has the lowest comparable Guarded PEG at 0.67×, 80.2% below Tata Consumer Products Ltd. Only 5 of 6 companies pass the guard, so no broad “cheapest stock” conclusion is defensible unless the current multiple, own-history position and growth durability agree.

LeaderPatanjali Foods Ltd · 0.67×
Gap80.2% versus #2 · Tata Consumer Products Ltd
Persistence0/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage5/6 companies · 33 observations

Investor read: Treat valuation as permission to investigate, never as a standalone reason to buy.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current p/e signal.

PEG is shown only when earnings are positive and three-year EPS growth is between 5% and 60%. It is recomputed consistently as the trailing P/E divided by that growth rate — reported earnings, never an expected-earnings multiple. On Indian companies it is shown only where the two data sources reconciled. A missing PEG is more honest than a low-base fiction.

Before the conclusion · check the blind spots

What can make this comparison misleading?

This FMCG - Foods comparison names 6 specific ways its own evidence can mislead, all listed below. All 6 companies here report on comparable dates, so no rank carries a stale marker. 1 has second-feed figures withheld because the two sources disagree. 1 of the 8 ranked sections has fewer than three usable current readings.

Keep these limits visible

  • A high growth rate can be a low-base artefact. The page keeps level and change separate for that reason.
  • A high ROCE can be temporary or flattered by a small capital base. Read it beside margin, cash conversion and reinvestment.
  • The 4-Factor Sector Score ranks research priority, not portfolio action. Management quality, catalysts and risks need equally fresh evidence before capital is deployed.
  • An “all companies” line chart preserves completeness, but rank changes should be checked against reporting dates before drawing a conclusion.
  • 1 company is missing from the second-feed metrics by decision, not by absence: the two sources disagree, so nothing from the second is drawn. Read those rows as narrower evidence, never as a weaker business.
  • Thin comparisons: Capital expenditure have fewer than three usable current readings.

Which companies are included?

All 6 companies in the canonical FMCG - Foods membership are listed below, largest market value first — nothing is silently dropped, even where a company reports too little to rank. The charts above default to a selective view; this register is the complete set, with each company's own latest reporting date beside it.

AHEAD means the company is beating the index by 5% or more over three months. LAGGING, FUNDAMENTALS UP means it is 20% or more behind over a year while its trailing twelve-month earnings grew 20% or more. Both rules are fixed and applied the same way in every sector.

Evidence and freshness

How was this comparison built?

This comparison is built from the reported filings of 6 FMCG - Foods companies, normalized to a common ₹ scale and a shared quarter axis of up to 20 quarters each. Fundamentals run through Jun 2026 and market data through 2026-07-24. A second data feed fills gaps only after identity and scale reconciliation, and missing observations are never interpolated.

A second feed is read only after its reported income is matched against the primary source on at least three overlapping periods. Where the two agree the figures fill silently. Where there is too little shared history to compare, the figures are still drawn — they are the only evidence there is — and marked ⚠ unverified everywhere they appear. Where the two are known to disagree, nothing from the second feed is drawn and the affected company is named under the chart it is missing from. Every company's standing is listed in the register above.

FMCG - Foods company comparison FAQs

These 18 answers restate the FMCG - Foods comparison above in question form. Every one is computed from the same 6 companies and the same reported filings as the rankings and charts, current through Jun 2026. Price and relative-strength answers run through 2026-07-24. Nothing here is estimated, and none of it is a recommendation.

What is the Nifty FMCG - Foods index?

The Nifty FMCG - Foods index tracks India's listed FMCG - Foods companies as a single basket. This page follows the same 6 companies and equal-weights them, so every company's weekly return counts once whatever it is worth, and the reading belongs to the FMCG - Foods sector rather than to its largest constituent. Figures are as of Jun 2026.

Which are the best FMCG - Foods stocks in India?

Ranked by this page's four-factor score, Britannia Industries Ltd places first among 6 listed FMCG - Foods companies, followed by Sundrop Brands Ltd. That is a ranking of published data — earnings, quality, valuation and market behaviour as of Jun 2026 — and not a recommendation; Sector Alpha is not registered with SEBI as an investment adviser.

How many FMCG - Foods stocks are listed in India?

This comparison covers 6 listed FMCG - Foods companies in India, each above the size floor the site applies, with 20 quarters of reported figures per company where the filings exist. The full ranked list is on this page, as of Jun 2026.

Which FMCG - Foods company is the biggest?

Patanjali Foods Ltd is the largest, with trailing-twelve-month revenue of ₹40,183 crore, ahead of Tata Consumer Products Ltd at ₹20,861 crore. That covers 6 of 6 companies with comparable reporting through Mar 2026.

Which FMCG - Foods company is growing fastest?

Sundrop Brands Ltd has the fastest revenue growth at 72.4% year on year, across 6 of 6 comparable companies. Fast growth off a small base is not the same as proven scale — check whether the rate holds across several quarters on the chart above before treating it as a trend.

Which FMCG - Foods company has the best profit margins?

Britannia Industries Ltd has the highest operating margin at 18%, from 6 of 6 comparable companies. Sundrop Brands Ltd shows the biggest recent improvement, at +5.6 percentage points. A high margin matters most when it is holding or rising, not when it is peaking.

Which FMCG - Foods company makes the most profit?

Britannia Industries Ltd earns the most, at ₹2,537 crore of trailing-twelve-month net profit, from 6 of 6 comparable companies. Patanjali Foods Ltd has the fastest profit growth at 39.3%, though growth off a small or recovering profit base overstates how much has actually changed.

Which FMCG - Foods company earns the highest return on capital?

Britannia Industries Ltd leads on return on capital employed at 56%, across 6 of 6 companies. Read it beside the length of its reported history: a high return that repeats for years is evidence of a durable business, while a single high reading can be a small capital base or one good year.

Which FMCG - Foods stock is the cheapest?

On guarded PEG — where a LOWER number is cheaper — Patanjali Foods Ltd screens cheapest at 0.67×. Only 5 of 6 companies pass the comparability guard, so this is not a sector-wide "cheapest stock" verdict. Cheap on a multiple is a reason to investigate, never a reason to buy on its own.

Which FMCG - Foods company has the strongest balance sheet?

Sundrop Brands Ltd carries the lowest comparable gross debt at ₹13 crore, from 6 of 6 companies. Absolute rupee debt alone does not settle it, because company scale differs — net debt and debt-to-equity in the chart above carry more information, and a very low-debt balance sheet can also mean under-investment.

Which FMCG - Foods stock has the strongest price momentum?

Tata Consumer Products Ltd has the strongest relative strength against NIFTY 500. Relative strength answers last, after growth, quality and valuation: price can move well before the fundamentals confirm it, and sometimes without them confirming at all.

Which FMCG - Foods company scores highest for research priority?

Britannia Industries Ltd scores 58.8 out of 100 with 89.6% evidence confidence, from 18.9 points on growth and earnings, 20.1 on capital efficiency, 5.2 on valuation and 14.6 on relative strength. This ranks what deserves work next. It is not a buy recommendation, and management quality, catalysts and risk still need separate research.

How many FMCG - Foods companies does this comparison cover, and over what period?

It compares 6 listed companies over up to 20 reported quarters of fundamentals and 10 fiscal years of capital allocation, ending Jun 2026, plus weekly price and relative-strength history. Membership is the full sector list — nothing is dropped for having thin data.

What is the total market cap of the FMCG - Foods sector?

The 6 FMCG - Foods companies on this page carry ₹2,93,455 crore of combined market value. Britannia Industries Ltd is the largest at ₹1,29,575 crore, about 44% of the sector's total on its own. Market value moves with price, so this reading is dated 2026-07-29.

What is the FMCG - Foods sector's P/E ratio?

The median price-to-earnings ratio across the 6 FMCG - Foods companies on this page is 51.2×, measured on the 6 that report a comparable figure. A sector-level history for this multiple is not held here, so this is a cross-section of today, not a comparison with the sector’s own past. Figures are as of 2026-07-29.

How is the FMCG - Foods sector performing?

0 of the 6 covered FMCG - Foods companies are beating NIFTY 500 on Mansfield relative strength. A 52-week sector-versus-index comparison is not available from the current market series for this sector, so it is not quoted. Readings are as of 2026-07-29.

Why are some values on this page blank?

A blank means that company did not report a comparable figure for that period, so nothing is shown. Missing observations are never interpolated, carried forward, or replaced with a similar-looking accounting line, and a company with missing evidence has its research score pulled toward neutral rather than being scored as bad.

Is this investment advice?

No. Every figure here is a deterministic calculation from reported company filings and market data, published for research. It contains no recommendation to buy or sell any security, does not account for your circumstances, and is not a substitute for advice from a licensed adviser.
