Quick answer

The P&G Hygiene Q2 results date was Thursday, 12 November 2026. Revenue was Rs 1,145.08 crore, down 0.4%, and net profit was Rs 195.84 crore, down 6.7% from Rs 209.86 crore, per Free Press Journal. First-half profit fell 19.9%. I found no dividend with the result.

Latest update (Thursday, 12 November 2026, 4:20 PM IST): P&G Hygiene and Health Care reported Q2 FY27 standalone results on Thursday, 12 November 2026, with the first reports at about 1:47 PM IST. I found no dividend announcement, no analyst consensus and no official closing price, and I have not opened the exchange filing. The earlier preview marks are kept below so the result can be checked against them.

Key takeaways

  • Date: the board met on Thursday, 12 November 2026, as CompoundingAI had reported; the first reports appeared at about 1:47 PM IST.
  • Result: revenue Rs 1,145.08 crore (-0.4%) and net profit Rs 195.84 crore (-6.7%), against the Rs 1,150.17 crore and Rs 209.86 crore base on this page.
  • Costs: raw and packing material rose 20.4% to Rs 237.87 crore; total expenses rose about 2.5% on flat revenue.
  • Recovery: profit was 55.1% above Q1 FY27’s Rs 126.27 crore but first-half profit was down 19.9% (Rs 322.11 crore against Rs 401.92 crore).
  • Dividend: none found with the result; FY26 dividends totalled Rs 255 a share, including a Rs 25 special (CompoundingAI).
  • Still open: no EBITDA, no estimate and no official close found.

In plain words: P&G Hygiene and Health Care sells household and health brands such as Vicks and Whisper in India. It earns steadily when volumes and prices hold, so a profit fall usually points to costs, mix or promotions.

Data note: Figures are as of 12 November 2026, 4:20 PM IST. Q2 FY27 figures come from Free Press Journal and Investywise; earlier figures from Business Standard, Free Press Journal, MarketsMOJO, Investywise and CompoundingAI. I could not open the exchange filings. Derived numbers are my calculation. This is Procter & Gamble Hygiene and Health Care Limited, not the separate listed company Procter & Gamble Health Limited.

The full line-by-line analysis, with the cost lines, the margin arithmetic and the first half, is in P&G Hygiene Q2 results FY27. Here I keep the date, the base and the dividend record that the preview raised. The preview said Q1 expenses had risen while revenue fell, and asked whether costs would ease. Q2 answered partly: expenses rose only about 2.5% on flat revenue, but raw and packing material rose 20.4% (my calculation). The figures are as reported by news sources and I have not opened the exchange filing.

When was the P&G Hygiene Q2 results date and time?

The board met on Thursday, 12 November 2026 to approve results for the quarter and half-year ended 30 September 2026, as CompoundingAI reported. The first reports appeared at about 1:47 PM IST, during market hours.

The first report I found is Investywise at about 1:47 PM IST (08:17 UTC), followed by an entry in the Upstox live blog at 1:55 PM and Free Press Journal, updated at 2:14 PM. I did not find the exact filing time and could not open the exchange intimation. Companies must report within 45 days of the quarter-end, which made Saturday, 14 November the limit; the company reported on day 43 (my calculation). Last year the board approved Q2 FY26 on 6 November 2025, per Investywise.

What was the profit and revenue base P&G Hygiene had to beat in Q2 FY27?

The Q2 FY26 base was revenue of Rs 1,150.17 crore, up 1.32%, and net profit of Rs 209.86 crore, down 1%. Profit before tax was Rs 281.78 crore and earnings per share Rs 64.65, per Business Standard and InvestyWise. Q2 FY27 revenue of Rs 1,145.08 crore was 0.4% below it and net profit of Rs 195.84 crore was 6.7% below it.

Cite this table: P&G Hygiene Q2 FY26 base as reported; margin and tax derived by PositionalCalls.

The figures tie: Rs 209.86 crore on Rs 1,150.17 crore is 18.2%, and profit before tax of Rs 281.78 crore less profit of Rs 209.86 crore leaves Rs 71.92 crore of tax, 25.5% of profit before tax (my calculation). InvestyWise labels its figures in millions, but they match Business Standard’s crore figures, so I treat the label as an error; that is my reading, not confirmed. Neither source gives EBITDA for the quarter. InvestyWise shows total income of 1,160.07, which is Rs 9.90 crore above revenue and implies other income of about that size (my calculation).

Why the base is higher than the latest quarter

Q2 FY26 revenue was 29.0% above Q1 FY27 revenue and Q2 FY26 profit was 66.2% above Q1 FY27 profit (my calculation). Those are different quarters, so this is not a growth rate. Q2 FY27 revenue was 28.4% above Q1 FY27 and profit 55.1% above it, which closed most of that gap (my calculation).

What did P&G Hygiene report in Q1 FY27, the nearest mark?

In Q1 FY27 P&G Hygiene reported revenue of Rs 891.46 crore, down 4.86%, and net profit of Rs 126.27 crore, down 34.25% from Rs 192.06 crore. Earnings per share were Rs 38.90 against Rs 59.17, per Free Press Journal.

Q1 FY27 (quarter to 30 June 2026) Q1 FY27 Q1 FY26 Change
Revenue from operations Rs 891.46 crore Rs 937.03 crore -4.86%
Total income Rs 900.89 crore Rs 944.72 crore -4.60%
Total expenses Rs 731.26 crore Rs 680.02 crore +7.54%
Net profit Rs 126.27 crore Rs 192.06 crore -34.25%
Earnings per share Rs 38.90 Rs 59.17 -34.3% (my calculation)
Net profit margin 14.2% 20.5% -6.3 points

Cite this table: P&G Hygiene Q1 FY27 per Free Press Journal; margins checked by PositionalCalls.

These tie: Rs 891.46 crore over Rs 937.03 crore is a 4.86% fall, and Rs 126.27 crore over Rs 192.06 crore is a 34.25% fall (my calculation). Total expenses rose to 82.0% of revenue from 72.6% a year earlier (my calculation), so revenue fell while costs rose. Q2 FY27 repeated the pattern in part: expenses rose about 2.5% on revenue down 0.4% (my calculation). The article gives no reason for the Q1 fall; MarketsMOJO suggests higher input costs, product mix or promotions, which is its own reading and is not confirmed by the company.

Margins and the sequential view

Item Q1 FY27 Compared with Source
Operating margin 19.11% 28.46% in Q1 FY26 (-932 bps); 23.28% in Q4 FY26 MarketsMOJO
Operating profit Rs 170.06 crore Not found for earlier quarters MarketsMOJO

Other income Rs 9.43 crore Rs 7.69 crore in Q1 FY26 MarketsMOJO
Employee costs Rs 54.36 crore Rs 48.35 crore in Q1 FY26 MarketsMOJO

Cite this table: P&G Hygiene Q1 FY27 margins and costs per MarketsMOJO; not checked against the filing.

Sources differ in small ways. MarketsMOJO gives net sales of Rs 889.92 crore against Free Press Journal’s revenue from operations of Rs 891.46 crore, a gap of Rs 1.54 crore that probably reflects a definition difference I could not confirm. CompoundingAI puts the EBITDA margin fall at 933 basis points, against 932 from MarketsMOJO; the rounding differs.

What dividends has P&G Hygiene paid, and was one declared on 12 November?

CompoundingAI reports FY26 dividends of Rs 255 a share: an interim of Rs 195, including a one-time special of Rs 25, paid in February 2026, and a final of Rs 60 with a 1 September 2026 record date. No dividend is mentioned for 12 November.

The sums do not tie exactly. Rs 255 a share over about 3.246 crore shares is about Rs 828 crore (my calculation, using shares implied by profit and earnings per share), against the Rs 844 crore reported. The gap probably reflects payments made in a different period, which I could not confirm. The special dividend of Rs 25 was stated as one-time, so it should not be treated as a regular payout.

See dividend tax in India for how dividends are taxed.

What drives P&G Hygiene’s Q2 numbers: volumes, costs and margin?

Four lines drive the quarter: revenue growth, the cost of materials and traded goods, the operating margin and other income. In Q1 FY27 revenue fell 4.86% while expenses rose 7.54%. In Q2 FY27 revenue was flat, raw and packing material rose 20.4% and advertising fell 5.3%.

How did the actual P&G Hygiene results compare with the scenario tables?

Reported revenue of Rs 1,145 crore sits just below the flat row, and net profit of Rs 195.8 crore sits between the 14.16% and 18.25% margin columns, at a net margin of 17.1%. In the profit-level table it sits between the Rs 175 crore and Rs 209.86 crore rows. The tables were arithmetic illustrations, not forecasts.

How do I read the P&G Hygiene filing and avoid fake alerts?

To check the results, open the NSE or BSE announcement for Procter & Gamble Hygiene and Health Care, not a link in a message, and read the results table first. Treat any tip that asks for an OTP, payment or login as fake.

  1. Open the exchange announcement page for Procter & Gamble Hygiene and Health Care Limited.
  2. Read the unaudited results for the quarter ended 30 September 2026.
  3. Note revenue, expenses and profit.
  4. Compare with Rs 1,150.17 crore, Rs 281.78 crore and Rs 209.86 crore.
  5. Read the notes for any exceptional items.
  6. Check any dividend announcement.

What do most people miss about the P&G Hygiene Q2 results date?

Around the P&G Hygiene Q2 results date, most readers see profit down 6.7% and miss that the first half is down 19.9%, that raw and packing material rose 20.4% on flat revenue, that other income cushioned profit and that no source reports EBITDA.

Look-alike companyProcter & Gamble Health Limited is a separate company that also reported.
Not adviceScenarios are arithmetic, not forecasts or targets.

A last point on sources. Most figures here come from news summaries of the company’s filings, and definitions differ between them: net sales were Rs 889.92 crore in one report and revenue Rs 891.46 crore in another for Q1, and Investywise rounds the Q2 figures to Rs 1,145 crore and Rs 196 crore where Free Press Journal gives Rs 1,145.08 crore and Rs 195.84 crore. Before using any number from the P&G Hygiene Q2 results date in a decision, open the exchange filing, check the definition of each line and note the date of the report. I list each source with its time below so the comparison can be repeated, and the inputs for my own calculations are in the tables so the arithmetic can be checked line by line.

One more check on the P&G Hygiene Q2 results date numbers: the revenue and profit lines here are standalone figures, so they should not be compared with consolidated figures of other companies, and every percentage marked as my calculation can be rebuilt from the table inputs.

Analyst’s note. What stands out: revenue was flat, so the profit fall comes from costs, mainly materials (my reading). What is easy to miss: advertising spend fell 5.3% against last year, so the company did not lift spending to defend volumes. What would change the view: a filing that shows different expense lines or exceptional items. Caution: figures come from media reports and I did not open the filing. Reader action: read raw material cost, advertising and other income first.

Bottom line

The P&G Hygiene Q2 results date was 12 November 2026. The company reported revenue of Rs 1,145.08 crore (-0.4%), profit before tax of Rs 262.02 crore (-7.0%) and net profit of Rs 195.84 crore (-6.7%), with first-half profit down 19.9% and no dividend found. There is no target or call here. See the full P&G Hygiene Q2 results FY27 analysis and our earnings coverage.

P&G Hygiene Q2 results date: frequently asked questions

When was the P&G Hygiene Q2 results date?

The P&G Hygiene Q2 results date was Thursday, 12 November 2026, when the board met to approve results for the quarter and half-year ended 30 September 2026, per CompoundingAI. The first reports appeared at about 1:47 PM IST. I did not find the exact filing time; check the exchange announcement.

What was P&G Hygiene net profit in Q2 FY27?

Net profit was Rs 195.84 crore against Rs 209.86 crore a year earlier, down 6.7%, on revenue of Rs 1,145.08 crore, down 0.4%, per Free Press Journal. First-half profit was Rs 322.11 crore against Rs 401.92 crore, down 19.9%. These answer the P&G Hygiene Q2 results date comparison, but the filing is the reference.

Why did P&G Hygiene profit fall on flat revenue?

Raw and packing materials rose 20.4% to Rs 237.87 crore and total expenses rose about 2.5% while revenue fell 0.4%, per Free Press Journal and my calculation. Investywise cites commodity costs and the exchange rate, with a productivity programme as a partial offset. No EBITDA figure is reported.

What was the P&G Hygiene profit base for Q2 FY27?

The Q2 FY26 base was revenue of Rs 1,150.17 crore, up 1.32%, profit before tax of Rs 281.78 crore and net profit of Rs 209.86 crore, down 1%, with earnings per share of Rs 64.65, per Business Standard and Investywise. The Q2 FY27 changes tie to that base within rounding.

How did Q2 FY27 compare with Q1 FY27 for P&G Hygiene?

Revenue of Rs 1,145.08 crore was 28.4% above Q1 FY27’s Rs 891.46 crore, and net profit of Rs 195.84 crore was 55.1% above Rs 126.27 crore, my calculation. Advertising spend nearly doubled from Rs 83.32 crore to Rs 166.62 crore. The first half is still down 19.9% in profit.

Did P&G Hygiene declare a dividend with Q2 results?

I did not find a dividend announcement with the Q2 result. The record on this page is FY26 dividends of Rs 255 a share, a Rs 195 interim including a Rs 25 special and a Rs 60 final with record date 1 September 2026, per CompoundingAI. Check NSE and BSE announcements for any new dividend.

Did P&G Hygiene beat Q2 estimates?

I found no analyst estimate or consensus for the quarter, so I cannot say whether it beat or missed one. Compare the result with the Q2 FY26 base of Rs 1,150.17 crore revenue and Rs 209.86 crore profit instead, as the P&G Hygiene Q2 results date marks on this page do.

What was the P&G Hygiene share price after Q2 results?

I did not find a dated post-result price or official close for 12 November 2026. The earlier preview recorded Rs 6,982 and a market capitalisation of Rs 22,664 crore, undated, from CompoundingAI. Check NSE or BSE for a quote. No brokerage target is used on this page.

Is Procter & Gamble Health the same as P&G Hygiene?

No. Procter & Gamble Hygiene and Health Care Limited and Procter & Gamble Health Limited are separate listed companies. Search results show the second also reported Q2 FY27 with profit up about 26%, but I did not open its results, and this page covers only P&G Hygiene and Health Care.

Is this financial advice about P&G Hygiene?

No. This page is not investment advice, a target or a recommendation, and PositionalCalls is not SEBI-registered. It reports company figures and sources with dates, and labels my calculations. Read the exchange filing and consult a registered adviser before any decision.
