DMart Share Price Today: Market veteran Anil Singhvi flagged Avenue Supermarts Ltd, the parent company of DMart, for traders on Monday after the company reported its Q2 FY26 results. Shares opened slightly lower at Rs 4,275 on the NSE, as investors reacted cautiously to the mixed performance. Analysts appreciated the stabilisation in gross margins, but rising operating costs, slower same-store growth, and the scale-back of DMart Ready, the company’s online arm, weighed on sentiment.
Anil Singhvi’s Take on DMart: How to trade the stock
Singhvi said Avenue Supermarts’ quarterly performance was largely in line with expectations. He highlighted EPS revisions of 2–3 per cent, noting that margins held up well despite higher operating expenses. Market guru flagged the competition from quick-commerce players and said that the impact is now visible, which could affect near-term growth. Traders should keep an eye on support levels at Rs 4,175 and Rs 4,225, while the stock could rise toward Rs 4,400 if momentum returns.

DMart posted a consolidated net profit of Rs 684.85 crore, up 3.8 per cent year-on-year in Q2 results for FY26. Revenue grew 15.4 per cent to Rs 16,676 crore, led by new store additions and steady same-store growth, which stood at 6.8 per cent for outlets older than two years. EBITDA margins narrowed slightly to 7.28 per cent from 7.57 per cent last year, affected by higher employee and finance costs.
