A necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a supermanifold structure on a quotient defined by an equivalence relation is established. Furthermore, we show that an equivalence relation R on a Berezin-Leĭtes-Kostant supermanifold X determines a quotient supermanifold X/R if and only if the restriction R0 of R to the underlying smooth manifold X0 of X determines a quotient smooth manifold X0/R0.
