Dabur expects a "low single-digit growth" in the December quarter along with a "flattish operating profit" as the homegrown FMCG major faced inflationary headwinds in some of the segments. This forced Dabur to go for "tactical price increases" and tried to mitigate the inflationary pressure through cost-efficiency initiatives partially, Dabur informed in its quarterly updates on Friday. During the October-December period, rural consumption of FMCG was resilient and continued to grow faster. Alternative channels like modern trade, e-commerce, and quick commerce continued to post strong growth, while general trade, which mainly includes neighbourhood kirna stores was still under pressure in the October-December period. In the domestic market, Dabur's HPC (home & personal care) is expected to grow in the mid to high single digits, while Health Care is expected to be 'flattish' due to the delayed winter onset.

Tyre makers are expected to see a 7-8 per cent topline growth during the current fiscal, driven by a 3-4 per cent increase in realisations and volume, ratings agency Crisil Ratings said on Monday. This would be for the second consecutive year that the estimated revenue growth for the tyre manufacturer will be in single digit (albeit nearly double than that of last fiscal) and after logging a compound annual growth rate of 21 per cent between fiscals 2021 and 2023, Crisil Ratings said.

According to the ratings agency, the high natural rubber prices and limited ability to pass on these costs du
Corporates are bracing for revenue uncertainties in the April-June period due to a slowdown in government spending and the onset of the annual monsoon season, domestic rating agency Icra said on Monday. The sequential revenue growth will taper in the first quarter of the fiscal, the agency said in a note, adding that there was a 6.5 per cent growth in revenues in the March quarter compared to the preceding December quarter. "While signs of a revival in rural demand have emerged, headwinds, such as a slowdown in the Government of India's (GoI) spending during the Parliamentary elections and onset of the monsoon period, are likely to weigh on growth in H1FY25," the agency said. "India Inc braces for revenue uncertainties in Q1FY25," it added. Its co-group head for corporate ratings Kinjal Shah said the sequential revenue growth will slow down because of a relatively high base amid a perceived temporary pause in the infrastructural activities for a major part of the quarter due to the
