Amidst these and considering the demand trends, we pushed ahead with our affordability initiatives across categories to drive volume-based growth. We reported revenue of Rs 9,419 million, broadly stable on a YoY basis. However, we are encouraged by the strong resilience in our premium brands like Hush Puppies, Comfit and Floatz. Our initiatives on inventory, merchandising and decluttering continue to work well. We added 20 Franchise Stores in the quarter, driven by the franchise model focused on town expansion/semi-urban markets. We continue to maintain a balanced approach between managing near-term challenges and investing in long-term growth drivers. We are optimistic about consumption recovery towards balance of this year, backed by our strong market positioning and wide network while maintaining strong focus on cost efficiencies.” Result PDF
