What happened
Nestlé India reported that its standalone net profit climbed 36.3% year-on-year to ₹1,026.8 crore, while revenue from operations increased 20.3% to ₹6,788 crore in the September quarter. Despite broad-based growth across product categories, the company's shares fell as much as 8.3% after flagging persistent food inflation and volatile commodity costs. The company noted that cocoa prices remain volatile due to weather-driven crop concerns.
