Q1FY26 Quarterly Result Announced for Sula Vineyards Ltd.

Breweries & Distilleries company Sula Vineyards announced Q1FY26 results

  • Revenue from Operations: Rs 118.3 crore compared to Rs 118.0 crore during Q1FY25, change 0.2%.
  • EBITDA: Rs 18.3 crore compared to Rs 33.9 crore during Q1FY25, change -46.1%.
  • EBITDA Margin: 15.5% for Q1FY26.

Rajeev Samant, CEO, Sula Vineyards, said: We reported steady revenue from operations in Q1FY26, excluding the one-time WIPS gain recorded in Q1FY25. Own Brands growth was muted due to continued urban demand softness, and a lower trade placement of wine in June’25 in Maharashtra - our #1 market, as announcement of excise duty hike on spirits prompted heavy pre-loading of spirits by distribution at pre-revision prices. However, that said, this is a positive development going forward for the company and wine industry in Maharashtra.

Encouragingly, despite these headwinds, states such as West Bengal, Goa, UP, Rajasthan, among others recording healthy double-digit growth. In terms of portfolio mix, share of Elite & Premium increased 300 bps YoY to 74.7% with The Source and RASA continuing to see strong traction.

Wine Tourism remains a bright spot, growing 22% YoY led by higher footfalls, record Q1 occupancy and spend per guest. Our new wine tourism offering – Dindori Tasting Room & Bottle Shop at ND wines, near the Gujarat border is now open and welcoming visitors. Upcoming projects – ‘The Haven by Sula’ our 30-key resort near York and the new tasting room at Domaine Sula are on-track to open in time for this festive season. With these expansions and recent opening of Samruddhi Highway reducing the Mumbai-Nashik drive time by 45 minutes, the outlook for wine tourism remains strong.

In other exciting news, furthering our legacy as India’s wine pioneers, we are pleased to launch India’s first aromatic low-alcohol still Muscat wine - Sula Muscat Blanc. The Source Moscato, our first sparkling Muscat is the fastest wine from the Sula stable to hit 10K cases and we expect Muscat Blanc to emerge as a consumer favorite too. Looking ahead, while the year began on a challenging note, we remain firmly focused to deliver healthy operating profit growth for the rest of FY26.

  • Basic Earnings Per Share (EPS): Rs 8.32 vs Rs 11.06 down 24.8%

Rajeev Samant CEO, Sula Vineyards said:  "We are pleased to report our highest-ever revenue from operations in both Q4 and FY25. While this marks a significant milestone, our Own Brands sales were relatively subdued in Q4, impacted by few key factors: the continued slowdown in urban consumption, lower WIPS credit, contraction in exports, and short-term retailer destocking in Uttar Pradesh & Uttarakhand prior to the new excise policy announcement.

Despite the ongoing slowdown, it is encouraging to see good traction in some of the markets across India with ten states including Haryana, Rajasthan, Chandigarh, Assam, etc. as well as CSD delivering healthy double-digit growth in Q4. This fits in well with our endeavor of creating a truly pan-India brand. Further, ‘The Source’ range continues to be a standout, clocking robust double-digit growth in Q4 and FY25, powering forth our Elite portfolio. On a positive note, we have listed 4 new wines in CSD including our blockbuster Dindori Reserve Shiraz which bodes very well for our CSD sales growth in FY26 & beyond.

Our Wine Tourism segment closed FY25 on a strong note with 25% YoY growth in Q4 led by successful SulaFest’25 and strong performance of the resorts. Further, we are on course to open our latest addition, the Dindori Tasting Room & Bottle Shop at ND Wines later this month.

On the profitability front, concerted focus on optimizing overheads helped keep our EBITDA largely intact in Q4 despite subdued sales growth and lower WIPS credit.

Looking ahead, we are firmly focused on enhancing profitability and getting back to earnings growth in FY26."

Breweries & Distilleries company Sula Vineyards announced Q3FY25 results

  • Net Revenue for Q3FY25 stood at Rs 217.5 crore, reflecting a 0.6% YoY decline from Rs 218.9 crore in Q3FY24.
    • Own Brands Revenue grew 1.0% YoY to Rs 194.7 crore.
    • Wine Tourism Revenue increased 11.6% YoY to Rs 16.4 crore.
  • EBITDA declined 26.3% YoY to Rs 53.9 crore in Q3FY25, compared to Rs 73.2 crore in Q3FY24, with EBITDA margin contracting by 865 bps YoY to 24.8%.
  • Profit After Tax (PAT) stood at Rs 28.1 crore in Q3FY25, registering a 34.7% YoY decline from Rs 43.0 crore in Q3FY24, with PAT margin reducing by 674 bps YoY to 12.9%.
  • Basic EPS decreased 34.7% YoY to Rs 3.32 in Q3FY25, compared to Rs 5.09 in Q3FY24.

Rajeev Samant, CEO, Sula Vineyards said: We are pleased to report our 11th successive quarter of growth in the Own Brands business. However, our pace of growth slowed in Q3 impacted by 3 major factors – a broad-based consumption slowdown in urban India, election-related disruptions in Maharashtra, and WIPS credit captured being lower by Rs 4.7 crore vs LY with the capping of WIPS at Rs 20 crore p.a. at our Domain Dindori facility. Having said that we have kicked off production at our Nashik unit and so FY26 onwards, we are well placed to realize 100% of the potential WIPS.

Despite the challenges, it is heartening to see a couple of really positive longer-term trends playing out which will continue to power our growth going forward. Our Elite & Premium portfolio continued to see good momentum, even in a subdued environment. Revenue outside Maharashtra and Karnataka remained robust, with over 10 states achieving strong double-digit growth, now contributing 50% to our Own Brand sales.

Our Wine Tourism segment also recorded its highest-ever Q3 revenue, growing 11.6% YoY, truly showcasing our unique appeal in hospitality. This segment is poised to end FY25 strongly with the success of SulaFest’25, and the launch of our Dindori Tasting Room & Bottle Shop in Q4.

Looking ahead, we are focused on driving profitable growth and target a significant expansion in earnings from FY26 as the consumer demand recovers.

  • EPS: Rs 1.72 for Q2FY25.

Rajeev Samant, CEO, Sula Vineyards, said: We are pleased to report our 10th consecutive quarter of growth in our Own Brands business. However, Q2 FY25 was a subdued quarter, due to slowdown in consumer discretionary demand, particularly in urban areas where 90% of our sales are concentrated, and temporary disruptions in key markets like Karnataka and Delhi.

During the quarter, our Elite & Premium portfolio performed well with a 7% YoY growth, led by strong double-digit growth in our iconic brands - The Source, RASA, and Dindori.

It is encouraging to see wine culture flourishing beyond our core markets, with strong double-digit growth in states like Telangana, Himachal Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Uttarakhand, and West Bengal, affirming our commitment to building a truly pan-India brand.

Looking ahead, while mindful of near-term challenges, we remain optimistic for the festive season on the back of structural tailwinds including the reopening of Andhra Pradesh after a hiatus of five years, introduction of 4 new labels in the CSD market and the return of SulaFest at our Nashik vineyards. We are confident the long-term Indian wine story remains intact, and we see a long runway of growth ahead of us.

Rajeev Samant, CEO, Sula Vineyards, said: "We are pleased to report our highest-ever first quarter Revenue, EBITDA, and PAT in Q1FY25. This is despite the significant headwinds we faced during the quarter including the national elections which led to restrictions on AlcoBev movement and several dry days, and secondly the scorching heatwave. Both these factors impacted trade offtake and end consumer demand in Q1.

A really encouraging trend for us is that wine drinking is picking up well beyond the metros with states like Telangana, Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, among others performing strongly for us in Q1. One other positive is ‘The Source’ range, which has been a real standout in the Elite & Premium category, growing by 21% YoY in Q1.

One of the initiatives we took in Q1 was adopting a new route-to-market in Maharashtra where we have gone for a third-party sales model for our Economy & Popular brands. This strategy has yielded good results.

Overall as we look ahead, we hope to build on our first quarter results and deliver a strong FY25."
