The most optimistic Britannia Industries analyst has a price target of ₹6,000 per share, while the most pessimistic values it at ₹4,500.

Taking a look at the bigger picture now, one of the ways we can understand these forecasts is to see how they compare to both past performance and industry growth estimates. We can infer from the latest estimates that forecasts expect a continuation of Britannia Industries'historical trends, as the 9.3% annualised revenue growth to the end of 2025 is roughly in line with the 9.3% annual growth over the past five years. Juxtapose this against our data, which suggests that other companies (with analyst coverage) in the industry are forecast to see their revenues grow 10% per year. So although Britannia Industries is expected to maintain its revenue growth rate, it's only growing at about the rate of the wider industry.

They also reconfirmed their revenue estimates, with the company predicted to grow at about the same rate as the wider industry. The consensus price target held steady at ₹5,291, with the latest estimates not enough to have an impact on their price targets.
