The "Unlearning" Curve for India's FMCG Giants
India’s seven FMCG powerhouses posted a modest 7.4% sales rise in Q3 FY26 despite an unusually supportive macro backdrop of tax cuts, GST tweaks and low‑interest rates. The growth gap is widening as digital‑first food and beauty brands have seized more than half of sector expansion. Analysts argue the incumbents must revive the 1995 Discovery‑Driven Planning model and adopt new levers such as Brand‑as‑a‑Platform and rapid digital testing. Without a structural shift, legacy firms risk further erosion of market share.
