Bata India expects Q2 FY26 revenue to grow around 4% year-on-year, supported by higher festive-season sales and premium footwear launches. EBITDA margins are anticipated to improve modestly while net profit may dip slightly due to input-cost inflation. Analysts forecast stable demand in urban retail and sustained traction in Tier-II and Tier-III cities. The company continues to prioritize store modernization and digital integration to drive omnichannel sales efficiency.
