The Indian economy remained steady in Q1FY26. Moderation in retail inflation coupled with favourable tax policies is expected to offer relief to household budgets and improve consumer confidence. With our business on a solid footing, we will continue to deliver affordable and aspirational products backed by cost efficiency and focus on execution to create lasting stakeholder value.” Result PDF
