Nifty FMCG - Personal Care Index — Constituents & Performance

The FMCG - Personal Care companies below are the listed Indian FMCG - Personal Care universe this page tracks — the same constituent set people search for as the Nifty FMCG - Personal Care 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.

Participation is not spreading downward this month; the larger companies are still carrying most of it.

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 11 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%
Bajaj Consumer Care Ltd has the strongest current balance of earnings trajectory, business quality, valuation and price confirmation, with 100% evidence confidence.
Zydus Wellness Ltd has stronger price confirmation than earnings confirmation; that is a research prompt, not permission to chase.

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

Hindustan Unilever Ltd has the highest Revenue among the 12 FMCG - Personal Care companies compared here, at ₹65,225 crore. Godrej Consumer Products Ltd is next at ₹15,385 crore. Zydus Wellness Ltd has the highest Revenue growth at 46.2%, so level and change sit with different companies. 12 of 12 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.

What the numbers say: Hindustan Unilever Ltd is the scale leader at ₹65,225 crore, 324% ahead of Godrej Consumer Products Ltd. Zydus Wellness Ltd's growth is 46.2% from a ₹3,961 crore base, with 19 reported observations in the 20-quarter window. Treat the growth leader as an acceleration candidate, not as equally proven scale.

LeaderHindustan Unilever Ltd · ₹65,225 crore
Gap324% versus #2 · Godrej Consumer Products Ltd
Persistence5/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage12/12 companies · 218 observations

Investor read: Hindustan Unilever Ltd is the scale benchmark; Zydus Wellness Ltd is the acceleration watch. Promote the challenger only if growth persists and converts into margin and returns.

This conclusion weakens if: Hindustan Unilever Ltd's growth falls below Zydus Wellness 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.

Capacity Spending & Returns On It

No company in this FMCG - Personal Care comparison reports capital expenditure on a comparable basis, so there is nothing to rank here — 0 of 12 companies have a usable current reading. The section is shown rather than removed so an unavailable metric is not mistaken for one that was quietly left out. Filings were read through Jun 2026.

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 comparison: Marico Ltd (MARICO) — its two data sources disagree by up to 4% on reported income across 14 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.

Debt Load & Balance-Sheet Headroom

Gillette India Ltd has the lowest Gross debt among the 12 FMCG - Personal Care companies compared here, at ₹0 crore. Procter & Gamble Hygiene and Health Care Ltd is next at ₹1 crore. Hindustan Unilever Ltd has the lowest Net debt at ₹5,515 crore net cash, so level and change sit with different companies.

What the numbers say: Hindustan Unilever Ltd has the clearest covered balance-sheet capacity with ₹5,515 crore net cash and gross debt of ₹1,478 crore. Absolute debt alone does not identify the strongest balance sheet because company scale differs; net debt and debt-to-equity carry more information.

LeaderGillette India Ltd · ₹0 crore
Gap100% versus #2 · Procter & Gamble Hygiene and Health Care Ltd
Persistence8/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage12/12 companies · 193 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

Procter & Gamble Hygiene and Health Care Ltd has the highest ROCE among the 12 FMCG - Personal Care companies compared here, at 157%. Colgate-Palmolive (India) Ltd is next at 108%. Gillette India Ltd has the highest ROCE change at +21.2 percentage points, so level and change sit with different companies.

What the numbers say: Procter & Gamble Hygiene and Health Care Ltd leads ROCE at 157%, 49 percentage points above Colgate-Palmolive (India) Ltd. Gillette India Ltd has the strongest latest improvement at +21.2 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.

LeaderProcter & Gamble Hygiene and Health Care Ltd · 157%
Gap45.4% versus #2 · Colgate-Palmolive (India) Ltd
Persistence7/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage12/12 companies · 151 observations

Investor read: Procter & Gamble Hygiene and Health Care 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.

Valuation Against Growth & Quality

Gillette India Ltd has the lowest Guarded PEG among the 12 FMCG - Personal Care companies compared here, at 1.27×. Bajaj Consumer Care Ltd is next at 1.64×. Jyothy Labs Ltd has the lowest P/E at 19.9×, so level and change sit with different companies. 10 of 12 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.

What the numbers say: Gillette India Ltd has the lowest comparable Guarded PEG at 1.27×, 22.6% below Bajaj Consumer Care Ltd. Only 10 of 12 companies pass the guard, so no broad “cheapest stock” conclusion is defensible unless the current multiple, own-history position and growth durability agree.

LeaderGillette India Ltd · 1.27×
Gap22.6% versus #2 · Bajaj Consumer Care Ltd
Persistence0/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage10/12 companies · 85 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.

Market action

Bajaj Consumer Care Ltd has the strongest one-year price move in FMCG - Personal Care at +118.6%. It also leads on Mansfield relative strength against NIFTY at +44.2%. 3 of 12 covered companies are above zero on that measure. Every line covers 313 weekly closes through 2026-07-17.

Every price line is indexed to 100 over the chosen window. Mansfield relative strength compares a price ratio with its own 52-week average; zero separates leadership from lagging.
Price and relative strength

Price is rebased to 100 inside the selected window. Pair ratio rebases each selected company against one chosen denominator.

Before the conclusion · check the blind spots

What can make this comparison misleading?

This FMCG - Personal Care comparison names 7 specific ways its own evidence can mislead, all listed below. 1 of the 12 companies reports on an older date than the sector's freshest reporters, so its rank is marked stale. 1 has second-feed figures withheld because the two sources disagree. A high growth rate can still be a low-base artefact.

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 has an older fundamental reporting date than the sector’s freshest reporters; its rank carries a stale marker.
  • 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.
10 · the complete set

Which companies are included?

All 12 companies in the canonical FMCG - Personal Care membership are listed below, largest market value first — nothing is silently dropped, even where a company reports too little to rank. 1 of these is no longer being priced, so its price and relative strength are frozen at the last traded week shown.

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 12 FMCG - Personal Care 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.

Market dataThrough 2026-07-24 · weekly price and relative-strength history
Derived metricsGrowth, changes, CAPEX intensity, net debt, guarded PEG and P/BV÷ROE are calculated only when their inputs are comparable.
Score confidenceMissing and stale evidence reduces confidence and pulls the 0–100 research-priority score toward neutral.
Source standing10 cross-checked · 1 unverified · 1 withheld, of 12 graded companies.

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.

Questions investors ask · short, speakable answers

FMCG - Personal Care company comparison FAQs

These 18 answers restate the FMCG - Personal Care comparison above in question form. Every one is computed from the same 12 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 - Personal Care index?

The Nifty FMCG - Personal Care index tracks India's listed FMCG - Personal Care companies as a single basket. This page follows the same 12 companies and equal-weights them, so every company's weekly return counts once whatever it is worth, and the reading belongs to the FMCG - Personal Care sector rather than to its largest constituent. Figures are as of Jun 2026.

Which are the best FMCG - Personal Care stocks in India?

Ranked by this page's four-factor score, Bajaj Consumer Care Ltd places first among 12 listed FMCG - Personal Care companies, followed by Gillette India 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 - Personal Care stocks are listed in India?

This comparison covers 12 listed FMCG - Personal Care 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 - Personal Care company is the biggest?

Hindustan Unilever Ltd is the largest, with trailing-twelve-month revenue of ₹65,225 crore, ahead of Godrej Consumer Products Ltd at ₹15,385 crore. That covers 12 of 12 companies with comparable reporting through Mar 2026.

Which FMCG - Personal Care company is growing fastest?

Zydus Wellness Ltd has the fastest revenue growth at 46.2% year on year, across 12 of 12 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 - Personal Care company has the best profit margins?

Gillette India Ltd has the highest operating margin at 35%, from 12 of 12 comparable companies. Bajaj Consumer Care Ltd shows the biggest recent improvement, at +9 percentage points. A high margin matters most when it is holding or rising, not when it is peaking.

Which FMCG - Personal Care company makes the most profit?

Hindustan Unilever Ltd earns the most, at ₹15,059 crore of trailing-twelve-month net profit, from 12 of 12 comparable companies. Bajaj Consumer Care Ltd has the fastest profit growth at 77%, though growth off a small or recovering profit base overstates how much has actually changed.

Which FMCG - Personal Care company earns the highest return on capital?

Procter & Gamble Hygiene and Health Care Ltd leads on return on capital employed at 157%, across 12 of 12 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 - Personal Care stock is the cheapest?

On guarded PEG — where a LOWER number is cheaper — Gillette India Ltd screens cheapest at 1.27×. Only 10 of 12 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 - Personal Care company has the strongest balance sheet?

Gillette India Ltd carries the lowest comparable gross debt at ₹0 crore, from 12 of 12 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 - Personal Care stock has the strongest price momentum?

Bajaj Consumer Care 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 - Personal Care company scores highest for research priority?

Bajaj Consumer Care Ltd scores 73.3 out of 100 with 100% evidence confidence, from 32.3 points on growth and earnings, 17.3 on capital efficiency, 9.7 on valuation and 14 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 - Personal Care companies does this comparison cover, and over what period?

It compares 12 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 - Personal Care sector?

The 12 FMCG - Personal Care companies on this page carry ₹9,60,784 crore of combined market value. Hindustan Unilever Ltd is the largest at ₹5,03,987 crore, about 52% 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 - Personal Care sector's P/E ratio?

The median price-to-earnings ratio across the 12 FMCG - Personal Care companies on this page is 39.8×, measured on the 12 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 - Personal Care sector performing?

3 of the 12 covered FMCG - Personal Care 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.
