Patanjali Foods is on 3 of our India lists: Undervalued stocks, Dividend stocks and Small & mid cap stocks. - [Undervalued stocks Profit growth x: 1.6160787530762921](https://www.sectoralpha.in/markets/in/deep-value-stocks) - [Dividend stocks Regular dividend yield (%): 1.57](https://www.sectoralpha.in/dividend-stocks-india) - [Small & mid cap stocks Size rank in India: 225](https://www.sectoralpha.in/small-cap-stocks-india) ## Is Patanjali Foods profitable? Patanjali Foods Ltd earned ₹336 Cr of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, +86.7% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 4th quarter in a row of profit growth. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹1,814 Cr. Over 15 years profit has grown 14.6% a year on average. That is 3.0% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹180 Cr. 2 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making. For the full year, FY26 profit was ₹1,814 Cr (+39.4% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed +29.3% on a year earlier and the margin moved +1.1 percentage points. Sales did the work, and the margin was about flat. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed +65.0% and revenue +20.4%. 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 Patanjali Foods make, and is it growing? Patanjali Foods Ltd reported ₹11,337 Cr of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, +29.3% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 5th quarter in a row with growth on the year before. Over 15 years it has grown 5.4% a year on average. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹40,170 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹42,754 Cr. FY26 revenue was ₹40,170 Cr, +19.0% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +20.4% on average, against 5.4% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing faster than its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +20.2%, against +60.8% a year over the last 8 quarters (rolling over); profit over the last 12 months grew +61.6%, against +177.4% a year (rolling over). ## How much of every ₹100 of sales does Patanjali Foods keep? Patanjali Foods Ltd's operating margin was 4.8% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 1.1 percentage points higher than the same quarter a year ago. Across 13 years it has been between −42.0% and 6.0%. The latest quarter is within that range. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed +1.1 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed +0.7 points. So the gain came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged. ## Is Patanjali Foods' profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years Patanjali Foods Ltd's operations used more cash than they brought in, so cash conversion was −13%, a gap worth watching. In FY26 its operations used ₹333 Cr of cash, against ₹1,814 Cr of profit. After ₹17.0 Cr of spending on assets, free cash was −₹350 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 −13% of profit came in as cash: the cash cycle got 43 days longer between FY16 and FY26, so more of each rupee of profit waits in the business before it arrives. When less than 70% of profit comes in as cash, it is the thing to watch on this page. What to look at next: less of the profit turns into cash than it should, and the cash cycle is 43 days longer. The next section looks at where the cash is stuck. ## Where does Patanjali Foods' cash go? Patanjali Foods Ltd's cash cycle, the days between paying suppliers and getting paid by customers, was 76 days in FY26, up from 33 days in FY16. It spent ₹0.0 Cr on assets over the last 3 years. Customers take 22 days to pay, and stock sits for 79 days on average. At FY26 sales of ₹40,170 Cr, each day of that cycle ties up about ₹110 Cr, so roughly ₹8,364 Cr is tied up in the business at any time. FY26: customers took 22 days to pay and stock sat for 79 days, about 2.6 months of sales sitting as stock, for a full cycle of 76 days, longer than FY16's 33. The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0. Stock sits for 79 days. Customers pay about 22 days after that. Suppliers are paid at 25 days. Together that makes the 76-day cycle. Spending on assets: ₹0.0 Cr over the last 3 years, against ₹529 Cr of depreciation (the yearly wear and tear on existing assets). So it is spending about what it takes to replace what wears out, or less. Work still in progress is ₹51.0 Cr (FY26): assets paid for that are not earning yet. In short: cash is getting stuck in the daily cycle, so watch the cycle more than the profit. ## What is Patanjali Foods' P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Patanjali Foods Ltd's P/E is 18.8×, near the low end of its own history: it has been lower only 14% of the time. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 29.8×, over 11 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 ₹18.12. Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year earnings per share moved +39.3% while the price moved −37.8%. Earnings did better than the price, which pulled the multiple down within its own range. Where the price move came from: over 10 years the price moved +47.9% a year; about +49.0% a year came from earnings growth and about −1.1 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. ## Is the Patanjali Foods business getting better or worse? Patanjali Foods Ltd's business trend cannot be read yet. There are fewer than eight usable quarters of growth figures, so there is not enough history to read the trend. This is based on 9 quarters of 2 measures, with some gaps. Why it matters: with too little history, we say so rather than guess a direction. There are fewer than eight usable quarters, so this page does not guess a direction from so little history. ## How much does Patanjali Foods earn on its capital? Patanjali Foods Ltd earned a ROCE of 12% in FY26. That is up from a low of −106% in FY18. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 0.6 percentage points below its cost of capital, so growth here does not yet pay for the capital it uses. It comes from a 4.5% net margin and 2.14× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY26): a 4.5% net margin × 2.14× asset turnover × 1.44× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 13.9% 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: 11.4% − 12.0% = −0.6 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. Negative: growth at these returns loses value until returns improve. ## Does Patanjali Foods have too much debt? Patanjali Foods Ltd has total debt of ₹2,789 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹13,096 Cr as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.21× its equity, which is very little. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.60 in FY22 to 0.21 in FY26. So the returns on this page come from the business, not from borrowed money. ## What is the Patanjali Foods shareholding pattern? Foreign institutions cut their stake in Patanjali Foods Ltd by 7.2 percentage points over 8 quarters, the biggest change among its owners. Foreign institutions now own 7.2% of the company. Domestic institutions moved +7.2 points over the same period, to 12.5%. This uses the four owner groups that companies report every quarter; nothing is guessed between filings. Over the last two years: Foreign institutions: −7.2 points over 8 quarters, to 7.2%; Domestic institutions: +7.2 points over 8 quarters, to 12.5%; Promoters: −1.5 points over 8 quarters, to 68.3%. Why the owners changed: foreign institutions moved −7.2 points and domestic institutions +7.2 points over 8 quarters, while promoters moved −1.5 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 Patanjali Foods from balance-sheet trouble? For Patanjali Foods 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. The debt, cash-flow and return sections show the balance-sheet figures we do have, each with its own date. ## How does Patanjali Foods rank in its industry? 52.2 out of 100, rank 3 of 6 in FMCG - Foods, with 86% of the evidence available. Patanjali Foods Ltd scores 52.2 out of 100 against the 6 companies it is compared with in FMCG - Foods, ranking 3. Earnings are strong; relative strength in its sector is -5.5% and the one-year return is -39.4%. The four parts add up to the total exactly: 23.5 + 7.6 + 14.4 + 6.7 = 52.2. This is the same number shown on the industry page; it is worked out once for the whole group and read here. What would change it: The score would fall if profit growth turns negative or margins stop improving while the share price lags its sector. ## Which companies is Patanjali Foods compared with? Patanjali Foods ranks 3 of 6 FMCG - Foods companies on the 4-Factor Sector Score, with 52.2 out of 100. 1.

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.
