The Honasa Consumer share price saw a large institutional bulk deal yesterday, with Belgium-based venture capital firm Sofina Ventures SA offloading 41.78 lakh shares on the NSE at an average price of Rs 424.07 per share, generating proceeds of approximately Rs 177.2 crore ($18.7 million).

The bulk deal reduces its holding to approximately 2.01%, with Sofina retaining meaningful exposure to Honasa’s growth story.

The Honasa Consumer share price has gained approximately 42% year-to-date in , touching a 52-week high of Rs 437.90 recently, which creates a natural window for early-stage investors to monetise a portion of their position at favourable valuations.

About Honasa Consumer and Its Brands

Track Honasa Consumer Share Price Live on Univest Screener

Honasa Consumer Limited is the parent company behind India’s leading digital-first beauty and personal care portfolio. Its brand stable includes Mamaearth (natural baby care and skincare), The Derma Co (active ingredient-led skincare), Aqualogica (hydration-focused skincare), BBlunt (professional hair care), and Dr. Sheth’s (dermatologist-backed skincare). The company was founded by Varun Alagh and Ghazal Alagh and listed on Indian exchanges through its IPO in recently23 after rapid D2C growth. Honasa Consumer has been actively expanding its portfolio through acquisitions: recently it acquired a 58% stake in Fluence Pharma, a Mumbai-based hair therapy and nutraceuticals brand, marking its second acquisition in six months following the earlier purchase of Reginald Men, which entered the men’s grooming category. The Honasa Consumer share price reflects the market’s confidence in this brand-building and acquisition-led growth strategy.

For the recently26 quarter, Honasa Consumer reported revenue from operations of Rs 657 crore, up 23% year-on-year from Rs 534 crore in Q4 FY25, while profit after tax came in at Rs 69.4 crore. This strong quarter demonstrates that the company’s operational recovery post the FY24-FY25 inventory correction is now firmly on track. Earlier in FY26, Honasa had guided for sustained double-digit revenue growth and margin improvement as its offline distribution expansion matures. The broad-based VC exit wave in Indian listed startups currently also provides context for the Sofina deal: firms like SoftBank, Alpha Wave Ventures, Actis, Peak XV, Elevation Capital, and Tencent have all been monetising positions in companies like Paytm, Lenskart, Pine Labs, and Delhivery in recent months. The Honasa Consumer share price being near its 52-week high makes this a rational moment for Sofina to harvest returns from a 2021 vintage investment.
