Management Comments
Mr. Pradeep Rathod
Chairman & Managing Director, Cello World Limited
In 9MFY25, the company delivered revenues of Rs. 1,548 crores as against Rs. 1,488 crores in the past period. This was broadly in line with the industry, where we continue to see some pressure on the demand side due to muted consumption and discretionary spending by the consumers. At the beginning of the quarter, we saw strong festive demand, but it cooled off towards the end. Despite a slower revenue growth, we were able to maintain a healthy EBITDA margin of 26.3%, primarily driven by our overall operational efficiencies. Looking ahead, we expect a demand recovery, especially in the hydration and back-to-school categories. To strengthen our position, we continue to have an innovative and a preimmunized approach towards our product portfolio with consistent spending towards brand building. Strategically, our focus is on expanding our reach through various distribution models.
