FY26 revenue growth was 17.2% at Jubilant FoodWorks, 13.6% at Devyani and 5.6% at Westlife Foodworld. P\/E stands at 62.77 for Jubilant FoodWorks (industry 61.79) and 285.94 for Westlife Foodworld (industry 61.79). Demand cycles, input costs and valuation decide how much of that growth the market keeps paying for, so each company&#8217;s risks need equal attention.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Quick service restaurant stocks give investors exposure to the operators of global food brands in India. Growth comes from adding outlets and from higher sales at existing stores, so same-store sales and operating margin matter as much as headline revenue.<\/p>\n<p>Readers comparing quick service restaurant stocks should weigh growth, margins, cash flow and valuation together instead of leaning on any single number.<\/p>\n<p>This list covers three quick service restaurant stocks: Jubilant FoodWorks for Domino&#8217;s Pizza stores, Devyani International for KFC, Pizza Hut and Costa Coffee outlets and Westlife Foodworld for McDonald&#8217;s restaurants in west and south India. Every figure comes from the latest reported financials and the 8 October 2026 market close. Companies without complete current figures were left out.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:24px;\"><a
