Several major Indian companies, spanning diverse sectors, are set to announce their Q2 results for the fiscal year 2025-26 today, October 16, 2025. These include IT giants Infosys and Wipro, FMCG major Nestle India, Jio Financial Services, and Eternal. Investors are keenly awaiting these results, with expectations of interim dividend announcements from some companies.
Infosys
India's second-largest IT services company, Infosys, is expected to report a rise in net profit for the July-September quarter. Estimates suggest a 10% year-on-year (YoY) increase in net profit, with revenue also growing by 10%. Quarter-on-quarter (QoQ), the company is likely to report a 1.8–2.4% increase in revenue in constant currency terms. This growth is attributed to higher billing days, stable demand from the financial services sector, and a healthy pipeline of large deals. An ET NOW poll expects Infosys to post a net profit of ₹7,221 crore, a 4% increase from the previous quarter, and revenue of ₹44,008 crore, also a 4% increase. Investors will be paying close attention to margin trends, adoption of GenAI, and management's guidance amidst cautious discretionary IT spending. The board of Infosys could also announce an interim dividend for shareholders in the result.
Wipro
Wipro is expected to report modest sequential revenue growth for the July-September quarter, with margins remaining largely steady. Bloomberg consensus estimates revenue at ₹22,680 crore, up 2% from ₹22,135 crore, while profit is seen down 2% at ₹3,279 crore. The IT firm will report its earnings for Q2 FY26 on Thursday, October 16. The company's revenue is expected to increase marginally by 2.73 per cent quarter-on-quarter (Q-o-Q) to ₹22,757.05 crore, according to consensus estimates tracked by Business Standard. Amid a flat margin, Wipro's bottom line is likely to slip nearly 2 per cent to ₹3,264.35 crore.
Nestle India
FMCG major Nestlé India is set to announce its Q2 FY26 results, with most brokerage firms expecting muted operating performance. While steady sales growth is anticipated, Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) is expected to remain largely flat due to margin pressure. Kotak Institutional Equities projects a 3.7% year-on-year (YoY) revenue growth, estimating Nestlé's revenue at Rs 5,292.2 crore, up from Rs 5,104 crore in the same quarter last year. However, it expects EBITDA margins to contract by 100 basis points (bps) YoY to 22%, mainly due to gross margin compression. Zee Business Research estimates revenue to be at Rs 5,280 crore, up 3.4 per cent from Rs 5,104 crore in Q2FY25.
Jio Financial Services
Jio Financial Services (JFSL), the financial arm of Reliance Industries (RIL), is also slated to announce its Q2 FY26 numbers today. In the previous quarter, Q1 FY26, JFSL reported a 4% year-on-year (YoY) jump in its net profit to ₹324.66 crore. The company reported a revenue of ₹612.46 crore for the reporting quarter, up 46.5% from ₹417.82 crore in Q1 FY25.
Eternal
Eternal, the parent company of food delivery platform Zomato and its quick-commerce arm Blinkit, is scheduled to announce its second-quarter (Q2FY26) results. Zee Business research expects Eternal to deliver strong numbers across key financial metrics, supported by a steady performance in its core segments and higher other income. Eternal's profit after tax (PAT) is expected to jump nearly five times to Rs 126 crore, up from Rs 25 crore in the previous quarter. Revenue is projected at ₹8,670 crore, marking an 80.6% YoY and 20.9% QoQ increase.
In summary, the Q2 results announcements from these major companies are expected to provide valuable insights into the current economic landscape and future prospects across various sectors. Investors will be closely scrutinizing the numbers and management commentary for a comprehensive understanding of the market dynamics.
