Cosmo First reports its results for Q1 FY26

Cosmo First has declared its financial results for the quarter ended June 2025. It reported net revenue of Rs 800 crore in Q1 FY26 against Rs 690 crore in Q1 FY25 and Rs 746 crore in Q4 FY25.

Increased Q1, FY26 EBIDTA is backed by higher volume (19%), better BOPP film margins, improved cost rationalization (4 crores) and enhanced performance of specialty chemicals subsidiary, the company said.

A new BOPP film line started operations from June beginning and will add close to 45% to the company’s BOPP capacity. Window film, which started operations in May 2025 under the brand ‘Sunshield,’ has gained momentum with 50+ distributors.

The company has made multiple investments including BOPP, CPP and Window films over the last 3 years. All these investments have started operations in the recent months and should provide a significant ramp up in revenue as well as profitability in coming year(s). The new film lines are the most cost-efficient and should make Cosmo more competitive in the market.

The Specialty Chemical subsidiary has continued to achieve tractions and posted Rs 12 crores EBITDA with Rs 49 crore topline in Q1 FY26.

Zigly is all set for next level of growth and should see higher momentum in FY26 with House Brands and Vet centric approach.

Commenting on the company’s performance, Pankaj Poddar, Group CEO, Cosmo First, “The company is ramping up the production on new BOPP line. The FY26 focus will be on taking full leverage of the new investments, grow specialty film sales and push down costs.  Growth with profitability will be key focus for other business verticals including Speciality chemicals, Cosmo Consumer (Window Films, PPF films & Ceramic Coatings) and Cosmo Plastech (Rigid packaging).”
