Radico Khaitan Ltd., one of India’s leading Indian Made Foreign Liquor (IMFL) manufacturers, reported a strong performance for the first quarter of FY27, with consolidated net profit surging 76% year-on-year to Rs 229.60 crore for the April–June 2026 period. The company had posted a consolidated net profit of Rs 130.52 crore in the corresponding quarter of the previous financial year, according to its filing with the BSE.
The home-grown liquor major also recorded a significant increase in revenue, with revenue from operations rising 13.22% to Rs 5,867.69 crore in Q1 FY27, compared with Rs 5,182.30 crore in the same quarter last year. Total income for the quarter increased 10.44% to Rs 5,869.46 crore, reflecting continued growth across its premium and regular IMFL portfolio.
Radico Khaitan stated that the June quarter delivered its highest-ever volume, top-line revenue, and profitability, marking a record performance for the company. A major driver of this growth was the strong momentum in its Prestige and Above segment, where sales increased 35.8% year-on-year, highlighting the company’s continued success in premiumisation.
The company’s portfolio includes prominent brands such as Rampur Indian Single Malt Whisky, Jaisalmer Indian Craft Gin, Magic Moments Vodka, and the 8 PM whisky series. The strong performance of these premium brands has helped Radico Khaitan strengthen its position in India’s fast-growing premium spirits market.

During the quarter, total expenses increased 8.53% to Rs 5,571.64 crore, reflecting higher operational and input costs. Despite the rise in expenses, the growth in premium brand sales, improved product mix, and higher operating leverage enabled the company to deliver a sharp improvement in profitability.
The Q1 FY27 results underline Radico Khaitan’s ongoing premiumisation strategy and reinforce its position as one of the fastest-growing major IMFL companies in India, with strong momentum in both revenue growth and earnings expansion.
