Arvind Fashions Limited (AFL), a leading player in India’s casual and denim market, has announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ending 31 March 2026, showcasing significant growth in key performance metrics.
For the fourth quarter of FY26, Arvind Fashions reported a revenue increase of approximately 14.8%, reaching ₹1,365 crore compared to ₹1,189 crore in the same period of the previous year. This growth was driven by a robust 7.8% like-to-like (LTL) sales increase and strong performance in direct sales channels.
The company’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortisation (EBITDA) rose by about 19.2% to ₹189 crore, up from ₹159 crore in Q4 FY25. The EBITDA margin improved by 50 basis points to 13.9%, attributed to a 20 basis point expansion in gross margins, which reached 54.1%. This was facilitated by higher full-price sell-through and reduced retail discounting.
Profit after tax (PAT) for the quarter surged to ₹47 crore, a significant turnaround from a loss of ₹93 crore in Q4 FY25. Excluding the impact of the Code on Wages and an exceptional deferred tax asset (DTA) impact of ₹120 crore in Q4 FY25, PAT from continuing operations grew by 56% to ₹42 crore from ₹27 crore in the previous year.
For the full fiscal year, Arvind Fashions achieved a revenue growth of 14%, amounting to ₹5,266 crore compared to ₹4,620 crore in FY25. The company also reported a 17% increase in EBITDA to ₹705 crore, with the EBITDA margin expanding by 40 basis points to 13.4%.
The company’s PAT for FY26 reached ₹124 crore, a substantial improvement from a loss of ₹34 crore in FY25. Excluding the aforementioned impacts, PAT from continuing operations increased by 62% to ₹139 crore from ₹85 crore in FY25.
The Board of Directors has recommended a final dividend of ₹1.60 per equity share of ₹4 each for the financial year ended 31 March 2026, subject to shareholder approval at the upcoming Annual General Meeting.
Ms. Amisha Jain, Managing Director and CEO, commented on the company’s performance, highlighting the 14% revenue growth and 62% PAT growth as indicators of the company’s consistent and strong earnings trajectory. She emphasised the company’s focus on expanding into adjacent categories, enhancing consumer engagement, and increasing the share of direct channels to deliver sustainable long-term value.
