Kotak Institutional Equities expects revenue of Rs 23,729 crore and adjusted profit of Rs 293 crore, while HDFC Securities expects adjusted revenue of Rs 3,490 crore for the food delivery business. The stock is up about 23% to 24% in six months (my calculation), and the time of the board meeting was not in the sources.<\/em><\/p>\n<div style=\"background:#F0F9FF;border-left:4px solid #2E7D32;border-radius:6px;padding:14px 18px;margin:18px 0;\">\n<p style=\"margin:0;color:#1F4E79;font-size:14px;\"><strong>Quick Answer<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:8px 0 0;\">Eternal reports its Q2 FY27 results today, 21 Oct 2026, and the Eternal share price is Rs 317.10, about 8.5% below its 52-week high of Rs 346.50. Kotak Institutional Equities expects revenue of Rs 23,729 crore, up 17.4% from the previous quarter, EBITDA of Rs 854 crore and adjusted profit of Rs 293 crore, while HDFC Securities expects Blinkit order value to keep growing and margins to stay steady. The stock has gained about 24% in six months but is about 3% to 5% lower than a month ago, which is the mixed record the headline describes. Whether the Eternal share price rises or falls after the numbers depends on Blinkit growth, margins and the pace of new dark stores.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Ahead of earnings the Eternal share price carries high expectations: Kotak&#8217;s estimate implies adjusted profit of about 4.5 times last year&#8217;s level, and a miss on either growth or margin could move the stock sharply (my reading).<\/p>\n<p>This guide covers the live snapshot, what the brokerages expect, what to look for in each business, price levels and the risks. It is educational and not a recommendation to buy or sell the share, and I could not find a brokerage target price for this article.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:24px;\"><strong><a
