DMart Eyes Higher Margins Via Private Labels As Q-Comm Grows

The move mirrors a broader trend in value retail where private labels are increasingly being used to drive affordability

Avenue Supermarts Ltd, which operates the DMart retail chain, is expanding its private label portfolio beyond food staples and packaged groceries into home and personal care (HPC) categories, as it looks to improve margins amid rising quick commerce competition and sluggish consumer spending.

This move mirrors a broader trend in value retail, where private labels are increasingly being used to drive affordability and protect margins. Private labels are in-house brands often sold at lower prices and are owned and sold exclusively by a retailer.

"Fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) companies are expanding their product lines and trying new things, like HUL is cutting back on palm oil, and Nestle teaming up with a drug company for a new recipe," said an equity research analyst working in a Mumbai-based brokerage firm who did not want to be named.

DMart's rival Tata Trent Star Bazaar has built a successful private label category which has more than doubled its revenue from ₹1,798 crore in FY23 to ₹2,699 crore in FY25. In categories where private labels are offered, they now contribute over 70% of sales, up from around 60% two years ago.

'Balanced India-US portfolios fared better'

Saurabh Mukherjea has a simple message for investors in Indian equities: it's time to look beyond. The chief investment officer and co-founder of Marcellus Investment Managers believes that with jobs in India drying up due to the US tariffs, consumption slowdown and tepid corporate earnings, it “will be tough for a market already trading at record-high valuations to move any further”.
