Ranked by price change between the first and last close of the past year — no estimates, and dividends excluded. Short-window rankings show momentum, not long-term compounding, so CAGR is only shown on horizons of a year or more. Full definitions and the limitations we know about are on our Methodology page.
Radico Khaitan Ltd led with a +62.1% price move over the year, ahead of Honasa Consumer Ltd. at +60.5%. This ranks percentage price change only — it is not a recommendation to buy.
The average move across the ranked set was -4.5% and the median -18.0%. The average sitting above the median means a handful of standouts pulled it up, so the typical stock did less well than the headline suggests.
7 of 20 fmcg stocks closed higher over the year, while 13 fell. A ranking only shows the top of that distribution, so it always looks stronger than the group as a whole.
Returns ran from +62.1% at the top down to -40.9% across the 20 fmcg stocks ranked on this page. That spread — not the average — is what an investor holding a single stock actually experiences.
Not on its own. A short-window ranking measures momentum — how far a price moved recently — not the multi-year compounding that builds wealth. Open any stock's Investment Journey to see how it performed over one to twenty years before drawing a conclusion.
No. ReturnScreener publishes historical performance data for research and informational purposes only. Past returns don't guarantee future ones — always do your own due diligence or speak with a SEBI-registered advisor before investing.

ReturnScreener is an educational research platform and is not a SEBI-registered investment adviser. These rankings are a record of price movement over a fixed past window — they are not a screen for quality, not a projection, and not a recommendation to buy anything on them. Short-window movement is the weakest of all the signals published on this site: it says nothing about a company's earnings, valuation or durability. Past performance does not guarantee future returns. See our methodology and disclaimer.
