On being asked about the new vegetables or fruits, which will be launched by ITC under its Farmland range, he said: "The work happens in all the products and depending on where we see opportunity of matching with the consumer need, then we decided to roll out".
"This would also happen in the neighbouring states," he said, adding that it would also depend on availability of milk.
However, he also said that there is no targeted marketing efforts by the company in this segment like other products.
"In case of milk, the focus is elsewhere. In case, we get more milk then, we are selling it. Our focus in the milk segment is on value added products (as ghee and dairy whitener)," Sivakumar said.
The company also mulling to introduce variants in the ghee segment according to the regional preferences.
