Nykaa Q4 Preview: Top Brokerages' Ratings on FSN E-Commerce Ventures Stock
Kotak Institutional Equities Preview: Analysts at Kotak Institutional Equities (KIE) project a strong performance for Nykaa in Q4FY25, with an estimated year-on-year (Y-o-Y) growth of 24% in Gross Merchandise Value (GMV) and 28% in revenue. This growth is expected to be largely driven by the Beauty and Personal Care (BPC) segment, where GMV is forecast to rise by 43% Y-o-Y and revenue by 41% Y-o-Y. The fashion segment is also expected to contribute, with GMV growth of 12% and revenue growth of 34% Y-o-Y.
The brokerage estimates Nykaa's consolidated revenue for the quarter at Rs 2,143.2 crore, up from Rs 1,668 crore in the corresponding quarter last year. Kotak also notes that the inclusion of the B2B segment within the BPC business will further enhance sub-segment growth. Core BPC is expected to post solid performance in the quarter.
Kotak expects Nykaa to report a stable sequential Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (EBITDA) margin of 6.2%, reflecting a Y-o-Y expansion of 60 basis points. Consolidated EBITDA for the quarter is pegged at Rs 138.8 crore, up from Rs 93.3 crore a year earlier. The margin improvement is likely to be driven by operating leverage in the BPC business and reduced losses in the fashion vertical.
ICICI Securities' Preview For Nykaa Q4 FY2025: ICICI Securities forecasts a 35.2% Y-o-Y growth in Nykaa's consolidated EBITDA to Rs 126.1 crore in Q4FY25, compared to Rs 93.3 crore in the same quarter last year. The brokerage expects the EBITDA margin to improve to 6.1%, up from 5.6% in Q4FY24. This anticipated margin expansion is attributed to better cost efficiencies and improved performance across core segments.
JM Financial Institutional Securities Preview: JM Financial projects Nykaa's overall GMV to grow 27% Y-o-Y in Q4FY25, though it is expected to see a sequential decline of 9.8% quarter-on-quarter (Q-o-Q).

Consolidated revenue is forecast to rise 23.9% Y-o-Y to Rs 2,066.1 crore, compared to Rs 1,668 crore in Q4FY24, but it is likely to decrease by 8.9% Q-o-Q. EBITDA margin is estimated to expand 26 basis points Y-o-Y to 5.9%, though it may contract by 36 basis points sequentially from 6.2% in Q3FY25.
Nuvama Institutional Equities Preview: Nuvama expects robust growth in Nykaa's core business segments, projecting a 29% Y-o-Y increase in BPC GMV and a 10% rise in fashion GMV.
