NHC Foods’ Profit Tops Rs 21.68 Crore as Income Surges in Second Quarter

Key Facts

NHC Foods reported profit of Rs 21.68 crore for the quarter ended September 2026, up more than 16 times year on year, according to a PTI report published by Moneycontrol on November 12, 2026. Total income for the quarter rose 333% to Rs 451.32 crore, from Rs 104.09 crore in the year-earlier period. The figures place the quarterly results in a period that also saw a sharp increase in total income in the first half of the fiscal year. The company’s board approved the unaudited results for the quarter and first half ended September 30, along with the limited review report, on November 7. In the same disclosure, the company announced an investment in Sachmaas Foods as part of its plan to expand its business and add integration to its existing operations.

For the first half of fiscal 2027, total income was Rs 821.45 crore, up 282% from Rs 214.68 crore in the corresponding period of the previous fiscal year. Profit was Rs 38.68 crore, compared with Rs 3.01 crore a year earlier, according to the PTI report. The report described the increase as nearly 13 times. The first-half results show that the increase recorded in the second quarter extended over a longer period of the fiscal year. The quarterly and first-half figures remain separate in the report, as each covers a different accounting period.

Sachmaas Foods is engaged in the manufacture, processing, repackaging and wholesale or retail trading of hummus, peanuts and other food products, according to an NHC Foods disclosure. The company said the investment would help it expand its business and add integration to its existing operations. The target company’s activities place the deal within food products and agricultural commodities trading. The disclosure did not specifically describe the move as an expansion in the food manufacturing sector. The investment announcement came alongside the release of the quarterly and first-half results.

Managing Director Satyam Joshi said the company was “encouraged by the strong performance this quarter and in the first half.” He added, according to the published statement, that the company is focused on sustaining growth momentum, expanding its operations and strengthening its presence in agricultural commodities trading and food manufacturing. These priorities link the company’s existing business with the announced investment in Sachmaas Foods. The board approved the unaudited results on November 7, while the two periods covered ended on September 30, 2026. The PTI report published details of the profit and income on November 12.
