Quarterly EBITDA surged 53 per cent to \u20b9152 crore, with EBITDA margin improving to 8.4 per cent from 6.3 per cent in Q4 FY25, Raymond said in a press release.<\/p>\n<p>The company said growth was supported by strong consumer demand across branded textiles and apparel, despite a challenging global environment and higher investments in marketing, retail expansion and digital transformation initiatives, including SAP S\/4HANA implementation.<\/p>\n<p>The branded textile segment reported revenue growth of 14 per cent YoY to \u20b9831 crore in Q4 FY26, while EBITDA more than doubled to \u20b9115 crore from \u20b951 crore a year earlier.
