Investor interest in Godrej Consumer Products Ltd (GCPL) has been waning over the past year amid slower revenue growth. GCPL's annual growth rate in FY16-19 moderated to around 7 per cent from 10 per cent in FY13-16.
The stock tumbled about 14 per cent in the past year, as against a 2 per cent rise in the S&P BSE FMCG index. However, steps taken by the company — both in the domestic and international operations — are expected to help improve revenue growth over the medium term.
GCPL is launching its own incense sticks (neem-based mosquito repellent) and will enrich this portfolio
