Dabur India Shares Dip After Weak Q4: SEBI RA Says Recovery Hinges On ₹495 Breakout

Analyst suggests the stock may remain under pressure unless it breaks above the ₹495–₹500 level on a closing basis.

Dabur India shares slipped nearly 2% on Thursday after the consumer goods giant reported a weaker-than-expected March quarter (Q4 FY25) performance. 

Investors were disappointed by muted volume growth, margin pressure, and persistent rural headwinds.

The FMCG major reported an 8% year-on-year decline in consolidated net profit at ₹312 crore. While revenue rose marginally to ₹2,830 crore, it fell short of street expectations. Operating margins dropped sharply to 15.1% from 16.6%, marking a 10-year low.

Despite subdued demand-particularly in urban markets and general trade channels, Dabur managed to expand its market share across 90% of its portfolio. 

The home and personal care segment reported flat growth, healthcare contracted by 2.2%, and beverages declined by 8.8%, while the foods category grew by 18.4%.

Dabur’s management maintained a cautious outlook for the near term but guided for high single-digit revenue growth in FY26, banking on a broader consumption recovery, stabilising inflation, and continued distribution expansion.

SEBI-registered analyst Finversify highlights that the stock has been in a downward trend and can see buying interest only above ₹495- ₹500 on closing basis. 

The analyst added that on the lower side, investors can look at a target of ₹455-₹435 being tested and stop loss of ₹500.

Dabur shares have fallen 7% year-to-date (YTD), underperforming the broader FMCG index.
