Hawkins Cookers Reports 17% Rise in Q1 Profit on 33% Revenue Growth, Margins Pressured by Higher Costs

Hawkins Cookers, the Indian kitchenware manufacturer best known for its pressure cookers and cookware, reported a 17.1% increase in net profit for the first quarter ended June 2026, driven by robust sales growth.

Revenue from operations jumped 33% year-on-year during the June quarter, reflecting strong consumer demand for the company's kitchen appliance products. The company sells under multiple brands including Hawkins, Contura, and Hevibase, and competes in India's organized pressure cooker market alongside players such as TTK Prestige and Bajaj Electricals.

However, operating margins came under pressure as raw material costs and other operating expenses rose during the period. Aluminum, a key input for Hawkins' pressure cookers, has been a significant cost component for the company. The higher input costs partially offset the gains from increased revenue.

Hawkins Cookers is a publicly listed company on Indian stock exchanges, traded under the stock ticker Y25B2D. Founded in 1959 and headquartered in Mumbai, the company is one of India's leading manufacturers of pressure cookers, with manufacturing facilities in Maharashtra and Gujarat, serving both domestic and international markets.

The company's financial results were reported on July 29, 2026.
