From Eternal's Q1 FY27 earnings-call transcript · updated 25 Aug 2026.
Revenue & Sales Performance
- Growth in quick commerce (Blinkit) volumes showed strong QoQ increase (21% in latest quarter), with historical Q1 to Q2 volume growth typically between 18-26%.
- Company is cautious about giving near-term guidance but sees promising growth outlook.
- Most growth is driven by existing cities rather than geographic expansion.
- Non-metro/smaller cities are growing faster in percentage terms due to smaller base and less competitive intensity.
- Food delivery and going-out businesses have potential for further user base growth, though go-out is focused on fewer cities and a smaller customer base.
- Productivity gains across business areas (dark stores, warehouses, marketing) support scalability.
- Average order value (AOV) in quick commerce expected to remain range-bound in near term due to increasing frequency and assortment mix.

Capital Expenditure Plans
- Long-term capex per store increased to about INR 2.5 crore (previously ~INR 1 crore), reflecting larger store sizes and enhanced supply chain infrastructure including warehousing.
- Capex is lumpy with significant investment in warehousing to store more products efficiently, not just store setup.
- Recent quarter saw around 200 new stores added with capex of INR 700 crore, but this varies quarter to quarter due to lumpiness.
- Focus on expanding market via bigger stores and supply chain investments to maintain healthy ROCE despite lower NOV (net order value) per store in smaller cities.
