Nykaa Shares Surge 3% Amid Q4 Business Update Indicating Significant Revenue Growth Exceeding 20%
Nykaa Stock Surges 3% as Company Expects Strong Revenue Growth in Q4 FY26
Shares of FSN E-Commerce Ventures Ltd, the parent company of Nykaa, rose over 3 percent in morning trade on Monday following the release of its provisional Q4 business update. The company expects a strong revenue growth in the high 20-percent range in Q4 FY26, marking the highest growth in three years.
Nykaa stock was trading at Rs 253.79, up 3.18 percent, outperforming the broader market. The stock has gained about 48 percent over the past one year, significantly outpacing the Nifty 50's 2.1 percent rise. The company commands a market capitalisation of over Rs 72,600 crore, with a price-to-earnings multiple of 517.45.
The provisional Q4 business update indicates a broad-based acceleration across key operating metrics. Consolidated net revenue growth for the January-March quarter is expected in the late twenties percent range year-on-year, while gross merchandise value (GMV) growth is also pegged in a similar range. However, net sales value (NSV) is expected to grow faster, in the early 30-percent range, indicating improving conversion and monetisation trends.

The company attributes the stronger performance to a pickup in the fashion business, which had lagged in earlier periods, alongside continued steady traction in the core beauty segment. This mix is significant, as fashion carries a larger growth runway but has historically been more volatile than beauty.
The full-year financial performance for FY26 is also expected to be impressive. Nykaa expects consolidated NSV growth to accelerate to the late 20-percent range, an improvement over the mid-twenties growth recorded in the previous two years. Full-year net revenue growth is expected at the upper end of the mid-twenties range, suggesting a stronger exit momentum into the new financial year.
In terms of operational performance, Nykaa continued to scale its omnichannel presence. The company added 26 new stores during the quarter and completed the integration of 11 Kiehl's stores, strengthening its offline distribution and premium brand portfolio.
| Metric | Q4 FY26 (Expected) | Previous Two Years |
|---|---|---|
| Consolidated Net Revenue Growth | Late twenties percent range | Mid-twenties range |
| Gross Merchandise Value (GMV) Growth | Late twenties percent range | Late twenties percent range |
| Net Sales Value (NSV) Growth | Early 30-percent range | Mid-twenties range |
| Consolidated NSV Growth (Full-Year FY26) | Late 20-percent range | Mid-twenties range |
| Full-Year Net Revenue Growth | Upper end of mid-twenties range | Mid-twenties range |
