26% Revenue Growth in Q1 FY27; US Countervailing Duty Revised Down to 75%
LT Foods reported a strong 26% YoY increase in consolidated revenue to ₹3,161 Cr for Q1 FY27, significantly outpacing its 5-year CAGR of 18%. Growth was primarily driven by the North American market (+49% YoY) and the Basmati segment (+34% YoY), although PAT growth was more modest at 9% (₹183 Cr). A key regulatory relief was noted as the US countervailing duty on organic soybean exports was revised down from 340% to 75%.
