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.

FMCG - Personal Care, equal-weighted, based at 200 NIFTY 500, same base, same start trailing 12-month earnings per share rising falling

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 12 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.

03 · sector relative strength, before individual stocks

Is FMCG - Personal Care outperforming NIFTY 500?

FMCG - Personal Care has underperformed NIFTY 500 by 12.6% over the last 52 weeks. Over 13 weeks the gap is a shortfall of 3.5%. 3 of 12 covered companies currently beat NIFTY on Mansfield relative strength, so leadership inside the sector is selective. Bajaj Consumer Care Ltd is the strongest against the sector itself at +43%.

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 - Personal Care has underperformed NIFTY 500 by 12.6% over 52 weeks and 3.5% over 13 weeks. 3 of 12 covered companies beat NIFTY on Mansfield relative strength, while 6 of 12 beat the sector itself.

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.
Procter & Gamble Hygiene and Health Care Ltd looks inexpensive relative to peers or its own history, but its earnings trajectory has not yet earned the valuation signal.
Zydus Wellness Ltd has stronger price confirmation than earnings confirmation; that is a research prompt, not permission to chase.
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

Bajaj Consumer Care Ltd has the strongest one-year price move in FMCG - Personal Care at +123.6%. It also leads on Mansfield relative strength against NIFTY at +38.5%. 3 of 12 covered companies are above zero on that measure. Every line covers 313 weekly closes through 2026-07-31.

Price and relative strength

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.

Revenue Scale & Growth Durability

Hindustan Unilever Ltd has the highest Revenue among the 12 FMCG - Personal Care companies compared here, at ₹66,052 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 Jun 2026.

What the numbers say: Hindustan Unilever Ltd is the scale leader at ₹66,052 crore, 329.3% 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 · ₹66,052 crore
Gap329.3% versus #2 · Godrej Consumer Products Ltd
Persistence5/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage12/12 companies · 223 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.

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.

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.

Withheld from this chart: 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.

Valuation Against Growth & Quality

Hindustan Unilever Ltd has the lowest PEG among the 12 FMCG - Personal Care companies compared here, at 0.72×. Bajaj Consumer Care Ltd is next at 1.64×. Jyothy Labs Ltd has the lowest P/E at 20×, so level and change sit with different companies. 10 of 12 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026.

What the numbers say: Hindustan Unilever Ltd has the lowest comparable PEG at 0.72×, 56.1% below Bajaj Consumer Care Ltd. Only 10 of 12 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.

LeaderHindustan Unilever Ltd · 0.72×
Gap56.1% versus #2 · Bajaj Consumer Care Ltd
Persistence0/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage10/12 companies · 89 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 feeds agreed. Where any of that fails the ratio is left out rather than printed: a P/E divided by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, is a number that looks precise and means nothing.

What can make this comparison misleading?

This FMCG - Personal Care comparison names 6 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.
12 · 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 2026-07-31. 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.
