“We are pleased to report a robust beginning to FY25, with our Company achieving an impressive 29.4% volume growth in H1 FY25.

These initiatives position us to capitalize on the revival in consumer demand, solidifying our competitive advantage and fueling sustainable growth.

The combination of above-normal monsoons, festive season and wedding season is expected to drive improvement in discretionary spending. Additionally, the government’s focus on consumption stimulus will further bolster demand. This favorable environment is
