Colgate’s Q2FY26 result reaffirms that business remains structurally fatigued, with no visible triggers for a turnaround. Revenue declined 6.2% YoY, implying a 7-8% volume decline amid GST-led destocking and continued competitive intensity.

Colgate’s (CLGT) 2QFY26 performance remained weak as its revenue fell 6% YoY to INR15.2b (in line) on a high base of 10% growth and due to the impact of GST-led transition (trade disruptions).
