Three changes stood out: best operating margin in 15 quarters, indian funds and insurers (DIIs) raised their stake for 3 quarters in a row and revenue up on a year earlier for 7 quarters in a row. 1. Best operating margin in 15 quarters Operating margin was 15% in the June 2026 quarter, against 8% a year earlier. Why: Margins rose because the company sold a more profitable mix, got more sales from the same overhead, had a seasonal lift and a one-time cut in operating costs. Next results: check the underlying margin after the summer mix and one-time cost benefit. From the earnings call on 13 Aug 2026. 2. Indian funds and insurers (DIIs) raised their stake for 3 quarters in a row From 18.6% to 23.4% of the company by the September 2026 quarter. 3. Revenue up on a year earlier for 7 quarters in a row In the June 2026 quarter revenue was ₹756 crore, +27.1% on a year earlier. Why: Revenue rose because the company focused on a smaller set of products, sold more through online, general trade and modern trade, and its main brand and younger brands both grew. Next results: check whether younger brands keep growing after the Aqualogica restage and BTM expansion. From the earnings call on 13 Aug 2026. ## What are Honasa Consumer's latest quarterly results?

Management’s own plans and goals, from our notes of the call. A plan is not a result. Source: [the call transcript](https://files.tijorifinance.com/insight/india/52528/Conference Call/CC-Aug26.pdf). (From the call for April to June 2026, 13 August 2026.) ## What is the future of Honasa Consumer? What is changing in the business? What is changing at Honasa Consumer, from the latest results and calls: operating leverage delivering, operating margin expanded five consecutive quarters, derma co reaches ₹1,000 crore scale, second flagship brand confirmed and younger brands portfolio growing above 40%. - Operating Leverage Delivering, operating margin Expanded Five Consecutive Quarters. Operating margin rose from 5% in Mar-25 to 15% in Jun-26; the underlying margin after the one-time benefit is 12%, still a strong improvement from the trough. ⚠ estimate - Derma Co Reaches ₹1,000 crore Scale, Second Flagship Brand Confirmed. Derma Co crossed ₹1,000 crore in April to June 2026 and is Honasa's second brand at that scale; face cleansers alone exceeded ₹200 crore run-rate. ⚠ estimate We check 16 kinds of change in every company, such as costs spread over more sales, higher-value products, new orders, new regions or falling debt, against its reported numbers and what management said on its calls. Only changes the numbers back are shown. (Our read after the latest results, written 22 August 2026.) ## What could change the Honasa Consumer story? What are the risks? Operating margins rolling back below 10% in two consecutive quarters without a recoverable cause, combined with younger-brand growth stalling below 20%, would signal the recovery is a margin-peak cycle rather than a durable platform expansion. ### Each change stops working if - Operating Leverage Delivering, operating margin Expanded Five Consecutive Quarters: July to September 2026 operating margin falls below 9% despite price increases, indicating packaging inflation is overwhelming the operating leverage and exposing the headline margin as unsustainable. - Derma Co Reaches ₹1,000 crore Scale, Second Flagship Brand Confirmed: Derma Co's operating margin falls below double-digit levels as it expands offline distribution, signalling that the offline model is diluting rather than adding to the profitability of the brand. ### The main risks - Management Narrative Consistency, Seven Flags Across Five Concalls: The April to June 2026 call added an ambiguous Staze repositioning flag, the seventh documented inconsistency, establishing a pattern of narrative management that makes guidance hard to anchor. ⚠ estimate - ASCI Regulatory Exposure, 187 Flagged Ads in FY24, No Public Remediation Plan: Honasa was the top ad-standard violator in India in FY24 with 187 flagged ads; the influencer-first D2C model remains structurally exposed to Consumer Protection Act enforcement. ⚠ estimate - Working capital Days Expanding Faster Than Revenue, Distributor Model Flag: Cash conversion cycle widened from minus 105 days to minus 78 days over four years as payables shortened 26 days; not a leak but a structural distribution model shift that warrants monitoring. ✓ fact (Our read after the latest results, written 22 August 2026.) ## What to watch in Honasa Consumer's next results? When Honasa Consumer reports July to September 2026, these are the 4 checks that show whether the story is still on course. First: Underlying operating margin after summer mix and one-time OPEX benefit - check whether operating leverage persists with growth-first reinvestment. - What to check (from the call) - Underlying operating margin after summer mix and one-time OPEX benefit - check whether operating leverage persists with growth-first reinvestment. - Packaging inflation in the next quarter - check whether calibrated price increases offset delayed raw-material pressure. - FIKN launch traction - check early consumer response to the fragrance-first, elixir-based proposition. - Younger-brand scaling after Aqualogica's restage and BTM's geographic expansion - check whether portfolio growth broadens sustainably. ## Which stock lists is Honasa Consumer on? Honasa Consumer is on 3 of our India lists: Undervalued stocks, Momentum stocks and Small & mid cap stocks. - [Undervalued stocks Profit growth x: 3.3972602739726026](https://www.sectoralpha.in/markets/in/deep-value-stocks) - [Momentum stocks Market cap cr: 14761.22709794164](https://www.sectoralpha.in/momentum-stocks-india) - [Small & mid cap stocks Size rank in India: 447](https://www.sectoralpha.in/small-cap-stocks-india) ## Is Honasa Consumer profitable? Honasa Consumer Ltd earned ₹90.0 Cr of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, +119.5% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 3rd quarter in a row of profit growth. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹200 Cr. That is 11.9% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹41.0 Cr. 1 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making. For the full year, FY26 profit was ₹200 Cr (+174.0% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed +27.1% on a year earlier and the margin moved +7.0 percentage points. Most of the change came from keeping more of each sale. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed +129.3% and revenue +20.7%. Profit is growing faster than sales: fixed costs are spread over more sales, so each extra rupee of revenue adds more to profit. ## How much revenue does Honasa Consumer make, and is it growing? Honasa Consumer Ltd reported ₹756 Cr of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, +27.1% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 7th quarter in a row with growth on the year before. Over 5 years it has grown 39.1% a year on average. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹2,392 Cr. Why this happened. Derma Co reached the Rs1,000 Cr scale milestone in Q1 FY27, a level previously held only by Mamaearth. This validates the multi-brand platform thesis: the company can build and scale more than one brand to significant revenue. The offline buildout began one year ago; general-trade presence is close to 50,000 outlets with strong modern-trade traction. The brand's EBITDA margin improved into the teens as it scaled. Management guided Mamaearth at double-digit CAGR for five years with distribution expansion from 200,000 to 500,000 outlets, which remains a live growth axis separate from Derma Co. The last four reported quarters add to ₹2,553 Cr. FY26 revenue was ₹2,392 Cr, +15.7% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +20.7% on average, against 39.1% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing slower than its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +21.1%, against +12.7% a year over the last 8 quarters (accelerating); profit over the last 12 months grew +239.7%, against +40.9% a year (accelerating). ## How much of every ₹100 of sales does Honasa Consumer keep? Honasa Consumer Ltd's operating margin was 15.0% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 7.0 percentage points higher than the same quarter a year ago. Its latest full-year margin is the highest it has ever reported. Across 6 years it has been between −290.0% and 10.0%. The latest quarter is above every full year in that period. Why this happened. The Project Neev distribution restructuring compressed OPM to a trough of 5% in Mar-25. The recovery arc over five quarters to 15% in Jun-26 is driven by three levers: mix improvement toward higher-margin focus categories (300-350 basis points), operating leverage from revenue growth absorbing fixed costs (approximately 100 basis points), and seasonality (50 basis points from summer products). The headline 15% has a one-time OPEX benefit that management estimated at about 3 percentage points, making the underlying 12% the durable run-rate. Management upgraded FY27 guidance to 150-200 basis points EBITDA margin improvement over FY26, versus the prior 100-basis-point-per-year framework.… Why the margin moved: operating margin changed +6.9 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed −1.5 points. So the gain came mostly from costs below the gross margin, such as staff and overheads, measured against sales. As noted under valuation: when margins are at a record, every ratio built on profit looks better than usual, so a low multiple can mislead. ## Is Honasa Consumer's profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 124% of Honasa Consumer Ltd's reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY26 it brought in ₹141 Cr of operating cash against ₹200 Cr of profit. After ₹231 Cr of spending on assets, free cash was −₹90.0 Cr: it spent more than its operations brought in. Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year. Why 124% of profit came in as cash: the cash cycle stayed about the same between FY21 and FY26, so the cash follows profit, not the cycle. What to look at next: the bigger use of cash is spending on new assets, at 3.0× depreciation over three years. The next section checks what that spending is building. ## Where does Honasa Consumer's cash go? Honasa Consumer Ltd's cash cycle, the days between paying suppliers and getting paid by customers, was −71 days in FY26, up from −80 days in FY21. It spent ₹357 Cr on assets over the last 3 years. Customers take 30 days to pay, and stock sits for 92 days on average. At FY26 sales of ₹2,392 Cr, each day of that cycle ties up about ₹6.6 Cr, so roughly −₹465 Cr is tied up in the business at any time. FY26: customers took 30 days to pay and stock sat for 92 days, about 3.0 months of sales sitting as stock, for a full cycle of −71 days, longer than FY21's −80. The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0. Stock sits for 92 days. Customers pay about 30 days after that. Suppliers are paid at 193 days. Together that makes the −71-day cycle. Spending on assets: ₹357 Cr over the last 3 years, against ₹120 Cr of depreciation (the yearly wear and tear on existing assets). So it is building well beyond replacing what wears out. Work still in progress is ₹0.0 Cr (FY26): assets paid for that are not earning yet. In short: the cash is going into new capacity, not getting stuck in the daily cycle. The question is whether the new capacity earns. ## What is Honasa Consumer's P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Honasa Consumer Ltd's P/E is 59.1×, near the low end of its own history: it has been lower only 4% of the time. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 95.9×, over 3 years of weekly prices. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. The P/E here, and its history, use a profit figure that can leave out one-off items, so it can differ from a P/E worked out on the quarterly results. Those results' earnings per share for the four quarters to Jun 2026 add up to ₹7.65. Keep one thing in mind: margins are the best this company has ever reported. A multiple that looks low against its own past can mislead when profit is at a record. If margins fall back, today's multiple is higher than it looks. Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year earnings per share moved +174.6% while the price moved +60.8%. Earnings did better than the price, which pulled the multiple down within its own range. Where the price move came from: over 3 years the price moved +12.5% a year; about +133.2% a year came from earnings growth and about −120.7 percentage points from the multiple (the market paying less). The split is approximate (price return minus earnings growth). It shows how much of the move came from the market paying a different multiple. In short: the multiple is low against its own past, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## What growth does the Honasa Consumer share price assume? Worked out from its price on 24 August 2026, Honasa Consumer Ltd's share price assumed profit growth of about 31.0% a year. Today its P/E is 59.1×, lower than 96% of its own last 3 years. This is a one-day reading, taken on 24 August 2026. Every other number on this page, the multiple included, uses the latest price as of 3 November 2026. A higher price assumes more growth and a lower price less, so it changes whenever the price changes, and this page does not update it between measurements. ## Is the Honasa Consumer business getting better or worse? Honasa Consumer Ltd's business is getting better. Profit growth hit its low 8 quarters ago at −20.0% and has recovered to +119.5% (from single-quarter figures), with ROCE rising at 23.6%. This is based on 12 quarters of 3 measures, with some gaps. Why it matters: a lasting rise from a low is what this page is built to show. One or more growth lines have an extreme jump caused by comparing with a near-zero or loss-making quarter. Those jumps are capped before reading and drawn at the edge of the chart, so one odd quarter does not decide the result. This reading has some gaps: at least one line is short, or the return line is not the quarterly series, so treat it with a little more caution. ## What is the Honasa Consumer story, and has it been checked? Honasa Consumer Ltd's story is not scored yet against the checks our research set on 22 August 2026. Where it sits in its own cycle: RECOVERY CONFIRMED. Our read, 22 August 2026. What is proven. The test written in advance. The test written in advance. Management Narrative Consistency, Seven Flags Across Five Concalls. Measured by: Management Narrative Consistency, Seven Flags Across Five Concalls by the next result. What the company does. Jun 2026 revenue Rs756 Cr with OPM 15% and PAT Rs90 Cr marks the strongest quarter in the company's listed history; however, management confirmed an unquantified one-time cost benefit, making the underlying margin closer to 12% once that is stripped out. Derma Co crossed Rs1,000 Cr in scale and became Honasa's second billion-rupee brand; younger brands collectively grew above 40%; the channel-quality concern from the Project Neev era has been resolved with distributor collections at their highest-ever level and inventory below 30 days. What the surface reading misses. What the surface reading misses. The surface reading is: The reported return ratios indicate profitable use of capital and equity. The research reads it further: These ratios summarize current profitability, but their durability depends on whether the margin profile can persist. Lever 1 · Operating leverage: building. OPM rose from 5% in Mar-25 to 15% in Jun-26; the underlying margin after the one-time benefit is 12%, still a strong improvement from the trough. What proves it keeps working: Operating Leverage Delivering, OPM Expanded Five Consecutive Quarters. It stops working if Q2 FY27 OPM falls below 9% despite price increases, indicating packaging inflation is overwhelming the operating leverage and exposing the headline margin as unsustainable. Lever 15 · Market-share gains: building. Derma Co crossed Rs1,000 Cr in Q1 FY27 and is Honasa's second brand at that scale; face cleansers alone exceeded Rs200 Cr run-rate. What proves it keeps working: Derma Co Reaches Rs1,000 Cr Scale, Second Flagship Brand Confirmed. It stops working if Derma Co's EBITDA margin falls below double-digit levels as it expands offline distribution, signalling that the offline model is diluting rather than adding to the profitability of the brand. Lever 14 · A bigger market to serve: building. Younger brands collectively grew above 40% in Q1 FY27; excluding BTM Ventures, growth remained above 30%; portfolio diversification beyond Mamaearth is confirmed. What proves it keeps working: Younger Brands Portfolio Growing Above 40%. It stops working if Younger brands growth decelerates below 20% for two consecutive quarters as the post-refresh and post-acquisition momentum normalizes, reducing the portfolio's growth diversification below a meaningful level.

The story check is re-scored every results season; the record below never changes. ## Did Honasa Consumer management deliver what it promised? What Honasa Consumer Ltd's management promised, against what actually happened: 4 promises on the record. Read straight from the company’s own earnings calls. A promise that slipped stays on this page after it is met. Staze Category Positioning Appears to Have Changed · 13 August 2026. The February 2026 call positioned Staze as a color-cosmetics brand, while the August 2026 Q&A appears to identify Staze as the starting point for the company's fragrance strategy. Because the latest transcript marks the brand name as unclear, management should clarify whether this is the same brand or a separate launch, as the category and strategic role are materially different. Contradictory Consolidation Timeline for Dr. Sheth's · 21 May 2026. In the Nov 2025 and Feb 2026 calls, management repeatedly cited Dr. Sheth's as an established, performing brand within their existing young brands portfolio. However, in the May 2026 call, management claimed Dr. Sheth's was newly acquired and in its 'first quarter of consolidation' to explain a 40% growth in the younger brands segment, materially misrepresenting the brand's organic history. Inconsistent Brand Attribution for Recent Acquisition · 21 May 2026. The Feb 2026 call highlighted the acquisition of 'Reginald Men,' describing it as a South India-focused men's sunscreen brand to capture the male skin care market. In the May 2026 call, when an analyst erroneously inquired about 'Dr. Sheth's for men' being acquired five months prior, management completely agreed with the premise and incorrectly attributed the exact strategic profile of Reginald Men to Dr. Sheth's. Inconsistent EBITDA Margin Expansion Guidance · 12 February 2026. Management has provided fluctuating annual profitability improvement goals over three consecutive calls, moving from a range of 100-150 basis points in August 2025 to 50-100 basis points in November 2025, before settling on a flat 100 basis points in February 2026. This lack of a stable goal for operational leverage creates uncertainty regarding the long-term margin trajectory as the company scales. Later call (Feb 2026): “Our goal is to improve the margin profile by 100 basis points annually.” Every quote above is taken word for word from the company’s own earnings calls. ## How much does Honasa Consumer earn on its capital? Honasa Consumer Ltd earned a ROCE of 19% in FY26. That is up from a low of 3% in FY23. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 6.2 percentage points above its cost of capital, so growth here adds value, not just size. It comes from a 8.4% net margin and 1.14× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY26): a 8.4% net margin × 1.14× asset turnover × 1.49× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 14.3% on equity. The margin does its share; borrowing plays a small part, so this return is earned, not borrowed. The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: 18.2% − 12.0% = +6.2 percentage points. The 12.0% is a standard assumption for the cost of capital in India, not an estimate for this company. Read the sign and size of the gap, not the decimals. A gap this wide means each rupee put back into the business creates more than a rupee of value. The 18.2% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY26 at 16.4%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does Honasa Consumer have too much debt? Honasa Consumer Ltd has total debt of ₹135 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹1,412 Cr as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.10× its equity, which is very little. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.15 in FY23 to 0.10 in FY26. So the returns on this page come from the business, not from borrowed money. ## What is the Honasa Consumer shareholding pattern? Domestic institutions raised their stake in Honasa Consumer Ltd by 5.9 percentage points over 8 quarters, the biggest change among its owners. Domestic institutions now own 23.4% of the company. Foreign institutions moved −4.4 points over the same period, to 14.9%. This uses the four owner groups that companies report every quarter; nothing is guessed between filings. Over the last two years: Domestic institutions: +5.9 points over 8 quarters, to 23.4%; Foreign institutions: −4.4 points over 8 quarters, to 14.9%; Promoters: +0.5 points over 8 quarters, to 35.5%. Why the owners changed: foreign institutions moved −4.4 points and domestic institutions +5.9 points over 8 quarters, while promoters moved +0.5 points. One group of institutions took over shares from the other; it is not a change of mind by the people running the company. ## How far is Honasa Consumer from balance-sheet trouble? For Honasa Consumer Ltd, the Z-score is not available, so we say so rather than guess one. It estimates how far the balance sheet is from trouble; it is not a forecast of failure.

This is the same number shown on the industry page; it is worked out once for the whole group and read here.

Missing figures are not scored as bad. They lower the confidence and pull the final score toward the middle. Relative strength counts only when the company has a reading for this week; with no reading, that factor is left out and its 20 points are shared across the other three in proportion. 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 path the industry 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 growing or shrinking. It describes where the share price stands, not the direction of earnings, and it is not a recommendation; it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read. The figures in this ranking come from the industry comparison: results through the Sep 2026 quarter, and the P/E at that quarter's end. The sections above use the latest weekly price, so a P/E or return there can differ a little from the one here. The stage words in this ranking (such as losing its lead or breaking out) describe the lead over the index, not the price phase in the price section.

Over the past 13 weeks it has done worse than the NIFTY 500, for 1 week running (as of 3 November 2026). ### Will Honasa Consumer's share price go up? This page does not forecast Honasa Consumer Ltd's share price. What it shows instead: the share price is ₹457.20, and it has been rising for 30 weeks. Its P/E of 59.1× is higher than 4% of its own last 3 years (as of 3 November 2026). ### Who owns Honasa Consumer?

No, Honasa Consumer Ltd has little debt: its debt is 0.10× its equity, and its operating profit is 18 times its interest bill. FY26 borrowings were ₹135 Cr against equity of ₹1,411 Cr. So the returns on this page come from the business, not borrowed money (as of 3 November 2026). ### Where is Honasa Consumer in its business cycle? Honasa Consumer Ltd's FY26 operating margin was 10.0%, against a 6-year range of −290.0% to 10.0%: the top of its range, a record year. When profit is at a record, every ratio looks better than usual, and the story depends on margins staying high. The latest quarter was 15.0%. Comparing margins with a company's own long history is a good way to see where it is in its cycle (as of 3 November 2026). ### What could break the Honasa Consumer story? The main question: yearly earnings per share moved +174.6% while the share price moved +60.8%. On price, this page treats a rise as over when the share price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row (as of 3 November 2026). ### Is Honasa Consumer a stock worth studying right now? What the numbers show: Honasa Consumer Ltd's results are improving, while its P/E is near the low end of its own history over 3 years, higher than only 4% of past readings. The main open question: whether the price catches up with earnings that have already grown. Every number on this page is worked out by code from the published figures, with no forecasts and no price opinions (as of 3 November 2026). ### Is there a Honasa Consumer share price forecast for 2026? What management itself guided: Company revenue yearly growth in the high teens over five years; FY27 growth expected above that framework. What is changing at Honasa Consumer, from the latest results and calls: operating leverage delivering, operating margin expanded five consecutive quarters, derma co reaches ₹1,000 crore scale, second flagship brand confirmed and younger brands portfolio growing above 40%. What would change the story: Operating margins rolling back below 10% in two consecutive quarters without a recoverable cause, combined with younger-brand growth stalling below 20%, would signal the recovery is a margin-peak cycle rather than a durable platform expansion. ## Lists - Undervalued stocks: https://www.sectoralpha.in/markets/in/deep-value-stocks - Momentum stocks: https://www.sectoralpha.in/momentum-stocks-india - Small & mid cap stocks: https://www.sectoralpha.in/small-cap-stocks-india This is research, not advice.
