During the period under review, milk procurement volume aggregated to 21.1 LLPD (up 13.0% YoY) while milk sales volume added up to 13.6 LLPD (up 14.5% YoY).
The company stated that milk procurement prices continued to rise faster than realization prices, keeping gross margins under pressure.
As a result, EBITDA fell by 21.3% YoY to Rs 64.9 crore and EBITDA margin contracted by 280 basis points to 5.4% in June 2026 quarter.
Profit before tax in Q1 FY27 stood at Rs 54.7 crore, down by 32.4% from Rs 81 crore in Q1 FY26.
The board of directors of Dodla Dairy has approved primary investment proposal worth Rs 11.6 crore for acquiring 2% stake in Sids Farm at a pre-money valuation of Rs 500 crore.
Sids Farm is a premium, antibiotic- and hormone-free dairy brand with a strong multi region direct to-consumer (D2C) and e-commerce presence.
Dodla Dairy said that the investment is within the company's line of business (dairy) and complements the company's established market dairy operations. It provides the company exposure to the fast-growing premium and direct-to-consumer dairy segment and an opportunity to associate with, and support the growth of, a differentiated, high-quality dairy brand.
Dodla Sunil Reddy, managing director of Dodla Dairy, said: During the quarter, the company banked upon a strong procurement cycle to be able to build inventory for upcoming quarters while also maintaining the market share.
As a result, the procurement prices remained at an elevated level despite a healthy milk supply. This strategy is in line with overall industry trends, and we expect prices to start normalising Q2 onwards.
With extended summers, our VAP portfolio, including curd, buttermilk, lassi, and ice cream, delivered record sales, reaching about a third of our total sales.
At the operating level, we saw improvement in our Africa, OSAM and Orgafeed businesses. However, standalone business performance was impacted primarily due to pricing pressure.
We are also progressing well towards our expansion plan focused on capacity increase, expanding our geographic footprint to deepen market presence and widen distribution reach, and increasing our VAP mix to enhance margins as well as diversify the product portfolio.'
Dodla Dairy is one of India's leading integrated dairy companies. The company procures, processes, and sells milk and milk products.
The scrip had advanced 1.24% to end at Rs 1052.75 on the BSE on Friday.

ALWAYS AVOID
We would like to caution you against such fraudulent calls and SMSes and urge you to be alert. Follow the golden rule:
Do not share your Login Credentials or Passwords with anybody
BOBCaps employees / representatives never ask for your password.
Certain tele-fraudsters / unscrupulous and unregistered portfolio managers call customers or SMS them on the pretext of providing investment tips and lure them to invest through their bogus firms by promising huge profits.
Such deceitful callers ask the customer to share his/her login credentials with passwords to allow trading in their accounts, assuring huge returns.
Often trades done in the customer’s accounts are far from the best interest of the customers. Holdings of customers are often sold and with the funds, trades are then placed in illiquid securities at unrealistic prices.
At times, the holdings of customers are sold at prices detrimental to the customer. The so-called “portfolio manager” assures profits, which naturally does not materialize. Customers are deceived into providing access to their trading accounts, thereby allowing such fraudsters access to funds and securities available to execute trades, injurious to the customer’s interest.
In our continuous effort to keep you safeguard from the market related frauds and increase awareness while conducting trades, we request you to go through the Press Release issued by the NSE and would request you to ensure that you do not engage with the individuals and entities mentioned below:
