RCPL Q1 FY27: Campa, Independence drive revenue past ₹8,600 crore; Australia launch in July

Reliance Consumer Products Ltd (RCPL), the fast-moving consumer goods arm of Reliance Industries, said quarterly gross revenue more than doubled year-on-year to about ₹8,600 crore in Q1 FY27, driven by Campa soft drinks and Independence daily essentials.

The company will launch Campa in Australia by the end of July, using locally produced aluminium cans for that market, and has begun selling its acquired personal-care brands in overseas markets. Beverages contributed about ₹2,900 crore of quarterly revenue and Daily Essentials about ₹3,200 crore, management said in the post-earnings conference call. RCPL has expanded its distribution to more than 5,000 distributors and over 3 million retail outlets, with external trade channels accounting for more than 80 per cent of sales.

Reliance Industries Chairman and Managing Director Mukesh D. Ambani said the consumer-products business was “growing rapidly”, with its fast-moving consumer goods portfolio gaining “real traction” with Indian consumers. “RCPL has more than doubled its revenues as compared to the previous year,” he said in the company’s results release.

Campa, Reliance’s soft drinks brand, has gained double-digit market share in key markets, management said. Independence, RCPL’s daily-essentials brand that sells staples such as atta, rice, pulses, sugar, and edible oils, generated about ₹2,600 crore in revenue in FY26 and was recognised as one of India’s trusted brands.

The company is adding manufacturing capacity alongside its distribution push. A greenfield beverages plant has been partly commissioned, food parks are under development, and RCPL is evaluating an edible-oil manufacturing facility in West Bengal.

RCPL recorded gross revenue of ₹22,000 crore in FY26, with Campa contributing more than ₹4,700 crore in sales. The company has set a target of ₹1 lakh crore in annual revenue by FY30.

Australia is becoming an important base for RCPL’s international expansion. The company has acquired a majority stake in Australia’s Goodness Group, which owns health-focused beverages including Nexba and hydration brand PACE.

“Management said RCPL had begun manufacturing Campa cans in Australia and planned to launch the brand there by end-July. It also said the company was expanding its beverage business into Australia and African markets during Q2 FY27.”

RCPL has also completed the operational transition of Brylcreem and Toni & Guy haircare products, Badedas bath-care products and Matey children’s personal-care products. Sales have begun in the UK, Europe and Australia, while an India launch is being prepared.

Management said FY27 would focus on disciplined scale-up, with expansion in distribution, manufacturing and its owned-brand portfolio rather than growth at any cost.

Ambani further said RCPL’s brands were gaining acceptance with Indian consumers, while Reliance’s distribution and manufacturing investments would support the next phase of growth. The company is now extending that strategy overseas, beginning with Campa’s Australia launch and the rollout of its acquired personal-care brands.
