Revenue growth remained a key highlight. Eternal's revenue from operations surged 196% year-on-year to Rs 17,292 crore in Q4, up from Rs 5,833 crore a year ago. Compared to the previous quarter, revenue also saw a healthy rise from Rs 16,315 crore, driven by continued expansion in both food delivery and quick commerce segments.

For the full financial year FY26, the company reported a consolidated profit of Rs 366 crore. However, this was lower than the Rs 527 crore recorded in the previous fiscal, suggesting that while quarterly performance improved, annual profitability faced some pressure.

Expenses also increased significantly, in line with expansion. Total expenses for the March quarter stood at Rs 17,406 crore, up from Rs 6,104 crore a year ago and Rs 16,493 crore in the previous quarter. For the full year, expenses rose 167% to Rs 55,145 crore, compared to Rs 20,623 crore in FY25, highlighting higher investments in operations, logistics and growth initiatives.

Despite rising costs, the company maintained a strong balance sheet position. Eternal ended the quarter with a cash balance of Rs 17,972 crore, slightly higher than Rs 17,820 crore in the previous quarter, providing financial flexibility to support future expansion.
