BusinessPhoto: NDTV BusinessITC Cigarette Earnings Expected to Recover by Q4 FY27, Analysts Say
ITC's cigarette business faces pressure from high taxation, but analysts expect a gradual profitability recovery by Q4 FY27 as the company adjusts prices and reshapes its portfolio. Despite Q2 FY27 results slightly beating estimates due to strong FMCG, agriculture, and paperboard segments, cigarette sales continue to weigh on earnings. Brokerages like Jefferies and UBS maintain 'Buy' ratings, while JPMorgan and Goldman Sachs are 'Neutral'.
