Nifty FMCG - Foods Index — Constituents & Performance
All 6 listed Indian FMCG - Foods companies are named here, largest first — the same constituent set people search for as the Nifty FMCG - Foods index. Every figure is equal-weighted across those companies and carries its own as-of date. One large constituent cannot set the reading.

How has FMCG - Foods moved against NIFTY 500?
The line below covers up to 5.2 years and opens on the 5Y view; the buttons cut it shorter. Over the most recent two of them this sector is 24% behind NIFTY 500. Earnings across its companies grew 11% on average over the last four reported quarters.
RS — · 2/6 >200d (+1) · 1/6 lead (+0) · EPS 6/6↑
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.
Is FMCG - Foods outperforming NIFTY 500?
FMCG - Foods has underperformed NIFTY 500 by 19.4% over the last 52 weeks. Over 13 weeks the gap is a shortfall of 0.8%. 1 of 6 covered companies currently beats NIFTY on Mansfield relative strength, so leadership inside the sector is selective. Mrs Bectors Food Specialities Ltd is the strongest against the sector itself at +23.1%.
Sector metric: 38.6 as of 2026-08-22 · LEADERS · rising.
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.
Bottom line
FMCG - Foods has underperformed NIFTY 500 by 19.4% over 52 weeks and 0.8% over 13 weeks. 1 of 6 covered companies beat NIFTY on Mansfield relative strength, while 2 of 6 beat the sector itself. Patanjali Foods Ltd leads with revenue of ₹42,754 crore, based on 6 of 6 comparable companies through Jun 2026.
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.
How this score is built, and what the marks mean
Missing observations are not scored as bad. Their missing weight lowers confidence and pulls the final score toward neutral. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led NIFTY 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step curve the sector itself is placed on — basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep — read from how many weeks running it has led NIFTY 500 and whether that lead is widening or shrinking. It describes where the PRICE stands, not the earnings trajectory and not a recommendation, and it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read.

Market action
Tata Consumer Products Ltd has the strongest one-year price move in FMCG - Foods at -7.6%. Mrs Bectors Food Specialities Ltd leads on Mansfield relative strength against NIFTY at +12.1%. 1 of 6 covered companies is above zero on that measure. Every line covers 313 weekly closes through 2026-09-11.
Every company, the sector's own index and NIFTY 500 all start level on the left edge of the window, so only the distance between the lines counts — the highest line has risen the most since then, and the chart at the top of this page is drawn the same way. It opens on one year; the buttons beside it stretch that to three or five.
How far ahead of or behind NIFTY 500 each company has been running, measured against its own recent average of that comparison, so the flat line at zero IS NIFTY 500: above it the company is beating the market, below it the market is beating the company. It opens on one year.
The same measure taken against FMCG - Foods itself instead of the whole market, so the flat line at zero is the sector: above it the company is beating its own peers, which is the sharper test of the two. It opens on one year.

Revenue Scale & Growth Durability
Patanjali Foods Ltd has the highest Revenue among the 6 FMCG - Foods companies compared here, at ₹42,754 crore. Tata Consumer Products Ltd is next at ₹20,861 crore. Sundrop Brands Ltd has the highest Revenue growth at 47.3%, so level and change sit with different companies. 6 of 6 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026.
What the numbers say: Patanjali Foods Ltd is the scale leader at ₹42,754 crore, 104.9% ahead of Tata Consumer Products Ltd. Sundrop Brands Ltd's growth is 47.3% from a ₹1,605 crore base, with 20 reported observations in the 20-quarter window. Treat the growth leader as an acceleration candidate, not as equally proven scale.
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.

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 +4.5 percentage points. 6 of 6 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 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 +4.5 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.
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.
Withheld from this chart: Tata Consumer Products Ltd (TATACONSUM) — its two data sources disagree by up to 7.5% on reported income across 14 comparable periods, so its derived ratios are withheld; 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 PEG among the 6 FMCG - Foods companies compared here, at 0.67×. Britannia Industries Ltd is next at 3.25×. The Bombay Burmah Trading Corporation Ltd has the lowest P/E at 8.02×, so level and change sit with different companies. 4 of 6 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026.
What the numbers say: Patanjali Foods Ltd has the lowest comparable PEG at 0.67×, 79.4% below Britannia Industries Ltd. Only 4 of 6 companies have earnings and growth steady enough for the ratio to mean anything, so no broad “cheapest stock” conclusion is defensible unless the current multiple, own-history position and growth durability agree.
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.

What can make this comparison misleading?
This FMCG - Foods comparison names 5 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. 2 have 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.
- 2 companies are 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.
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 2026-09-11. A second data feed fills gaps only after identity and scale reconciliation, and missing observations are never interpolated.
How a second data feed is admitted, and what happens when it disagrees
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.
FMCG - Foods company comparison FAQs
These 24 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 2026-09-11. Nothing here is estimated, and none of it is a recommendation.

Is there a Nifty FMCG - Foods index?
NSE India maintains Nifty indices for several broad sector categories — Nifty Bank, Nifty IT, Nifty Pharma and others — but not for every sub-sector grouping on this site. Whether or not an official Nifty index covers FMCG - Foods, this page builds its own equal-weight basket of 6 listed FMCG - Foods companies — one company, one vote, regardless of market value — so no single large company dominates the reading. 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.
