|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capex | — | So we'll book PLI income in last quarter of this year once we complete all the capex commitments. | And, what is the kind of CAPEX that you would look at in FY ’26-’27? | — | So in the current fiscal in ‘23, we have added three new plants in Kanpur, Muzaffarpur, and Bikaner, that is in the name of Hanuman. | Also to tell the audience on the team while we were talking about fixed Focus states, what we have also done is here onwards, Chhattisgarh is where ou… | So, in papad, we don't need a major capex. | Just wanted to firstly understand if you could quantify the capex amount that you alluded in your opening remarks. |
| Capital allocation | — | — | — | With that in mind, we started a campaign Bhujia Ho Toh Bikaji, which has given a good and excellent dividend in terms of increasing our reach and incr… | — | One last question I wanted to check on is the dividend policy we have. | May 16, 2025 Bhujialalji, which was a small acquisition, and that was clearly to play on the modern trade and on the e-com platforms as a brand B stra… | And I think all are inputting the team what they spread behind this growth, I think this has paid us dividend. |
| Costs | Maybe just to fine tune, I mean, currently, directionally, all the raw material looks benign. | So basically you see, so basically across all key raw materials, so largely new crop had come in, in December and Jan. | And with respect to margins, so this time, we have seen quite a fall, how do you see the raw material prices move from here? | While you mentioned in your opening remarks on the raw materials being fairly stable, I just wanted to check specifically on potato, what is the procu… | Our edible oil, when we started in FY ‘21, when we see raw material prices, edible oil, which was around 1. | So, we are largely not dependent on a single raw material, like we are into 5-6 categories, purchasing a lot of pulses, not any single crop like we ar… | So, from a raw material lens, what we're seeing and what we explained last time this year, all the pulses settle in a good favour, wheat, all the key … | May 22, 2026 From raw material perspective, there is -- this war which was started in Feb and March. |
| Debt and cash | — | — | — | — | Our working capital, which includes debtors, creditors, and inventory is close to 19 days. | — | — | From a working capital perspective, our working capital cycle is largely same compared to last year, largely same. |
| Demand | — | And so therefore, we could not meet the demand, what it was in the market. | So, sweets, essentially due to marriage season, there is a big benefit because of the gifting, and Q3, we have seen, whichever category has a high mar… | So, we're seeing early sign of good recovery due to GST and good demand uptick. | Jan and Feb was a little dull for us, but from March, we've seen good uptakes in demand in rural and urban states. | We are more into expanding our distribution reach, and quality, that's what we talk about and also is the investment behind marketing to create some d… | Western Snacks after quarter 3, where we had previously witnessed the negative growth, and this is what we explained to you all, that was a deliberate… | This also is the outcome of the kind of investment in demand generation, what we have done thus far and is keeping us on the same trajectory. |
| Guidance | But yes, I think if you look at over two years, that's the volume growth or the value growth which we expect and distribution would be one of the key … | So my first question is with regards to the margin guidance that you have given 13%. | And can we expect maybe by next quarter, you know, kind of, or when can we expect the margins to be reflecting our, I mean, given that we have the abi… | We expect this exports growth to continue. | — | — | That's what, as an industry, we expect from a palm oil perspective. | May 22, 2026 In fact, going forward, if one was to give some guidance for next year. |
| Margin | January 27, 2023 three to four quarters aspirationally, where would you like to settle in terms of gross margin and EBITDA margin? | So I wanted to understand what is driving this, because this should be a better gross margin business versus your impulse packs? | So, here the specific question is, I understand western snacks you did call out that conscious call was there because of very low margin, but what hap… | Overall, from the 9 months numbers, our gross margins close to 34.9% with EBITDA at 14.2%. | So, the one I'm talking about is in a can kind of stuff, so this is about premiumization and increasing the gross margin on certain products, which al… | So, this quarter if I strip out the PLI benefit completely, your EBITDA margins are 13%. | And also, we have taken a few price hikes back-to-back in quarter 3 and quarter 4, which has helped us in getting a gross margin back to close to 31%. | And from EBITDA, overall we closed to INR88 crores of EBITDA with PAT margin of close to 8%. |
| People | You did mention that 60 tons per day is the already capacity utilization is happening as on date, or its… | — | But yes, once, we get the utilization up, this will again come at normal level. | January 28, 2026 stable growth being we are at low category, low utilization as of now 50%, 52%. | Okay, so you're saying that, the optimum capacity utilization is about 65% to 70%? | So, we have built up capacity across each Ethnic snacks and Western snacks largely in last 2-3 years and we are currently 40%-45% type of utilization. | Ariba is not making money as of now because it's running at low utilization, but it's very small. | So, in these 4 months, we are over utilized our output is -- it exceeds 100% over time and all that stuff starts happening, whereas in rest of the tim… |
| Pricing | So roughly 10%, 11%, like volume at 4%, 5% of pricing is the way we should think about it. | So we are not taking any price increase, or any consumer pack reduce. | 10 price point, if you could take us through that, because there you cannot take a pricing growth. | And we are doing multiple things to improve build on efficiency and overall pricing strategy. | So just the remaining, if you can talk to us about how much was price increase and how much was mix change that drove the additional over and above vo… | Secondly, just wanted to understand your judgment on what happens to volume in different pricing scenarios. | So, circle of influence, what we call is so there's a lot of readiness above preparedness in terms of the marketing campaign, in terms of the product … | But overall, we have taken a price rise in April this year and which is suffice largely for the current price hike what we're seeing in raw material a… |
| Revenue growth | So if we look at our quarter performance, so the revenue growth quarter 3 over last year quarter 3, it's 15.6%. | So what kind of benefits can we see with this plant coming up, both in terms of revenue growth and margins? | 90-100 Crores top line that can that brand can give, its growing very good. | But on a YTD basis, if we look at, so sweets, again, on a positive stuff and a growth of 8.1%, while quarter 3 was a negative stuff. | If I talk about ethnic snacks, five years CAGR growth is 21%, Packaged Sweets has grown at 21% for the last five years’ CAGR, Papad has grown at 15%, … | So, my question here is, do you expect again early teens kind of volume growth and now most FMCG companies are talking about a 2% to 3% price hike in … | May 16, 2025 quarter 4, we added PLI for 3 years and that's what the reason is that when we add PLI, it looks as flat, otherwise, it's a 14.8% revenue… | In last quarter, volume growth was upward of 16%, which was highest in any quarter. |
