Festive season drives bumper Q3

V-Mart’s revenue soared to ₹1,126.38 crore in the December quarter, up from ₹806.87 crore in Q2 and ₹1,026.73 crore in Q3 last year. Net profit rose to ₹87.99 crore from a loss of ₹8.87 crore in Q2, and was 26.2% higher year-on-year. The performance was propelled by festive and winter sales, along with normalization of footfalls across key regions.

Sequential recovery builds momentum

Total expenses increased 23.3% QoQ to ₹1,015.32 crore but remained controlled relative to revenue growth. EBITDA more than doubled to ₹209.5 crore from ₹71.51 crore in Q2. Finance costs rose modestly to ₹20.55 crore, while depreciation stood at ₹77.89 crore. EPS turned positive to ₹11.08 from a negative ₹1.12 last quarter.

Margin expansion and festive boost

The company credited its strong Q3 showing to higher throughput during Diwali and December holidays, a richer product mix, and leaner inventory positioning. EBITDA margin jumped to 18.6%, aided by better operating leverage and segmental contribution from rural and tier-2 markets. V-Mart continues to optimize its store portfolio while expanding digital initiatives.
