Saffola a Rs 2,000 crore-plus brand; worst of inflation is over: Marico CEO

Saffola, the master brand under which Marico offers healthier food options, is now worth Rs 2,000 crore-plus, said Marico MD & CEO Saugata Gupta. About inflation, Gupta told PTI the "worst" is behind and he sees a gradual recovery for the FMCG (Fast Moving Consumer Goods) segment with rural market making a comeback. The rural FMCG market, which has witnessed a decline in the last 4-5 quarters, is expected to have a turnaround in the next 2-3 quarters, he said. "I think the worst is behind," said Gupta, adding, "Overall for FMCG, we see a gradual recovery, but that has to be led by rural. Urban has been decent." At the industry level, food continues to do well and HPC (home and personal care) category is struggling a bit. This is because, last year, there was significant inflation, he said. As inflation eases, now he expects "better margins" in top-line and said the urban market and modern trade channels are recovering and going back to pre-Covid levels while the general trade is .

Marico India business posts low single-digit volume growth in Q2FY23

FMCG firm Marico Ltd on Monday said its India business posted low single-digit volume growth in the second quarter of the ongoing fiscal. In a quarterly update, the company said demand sentiment in India trended on similar lines as the preceding quarter during most of the second quarter, with some signs of positivity in the last month. "With retail inflation holding firm, downtrading in rural (areas) was still prevalent during the quarter. Urban and premium discretionary segments continued to fare better," it said in a regulatory filing. The company's flagship Parachute coconut oil recorded low single-digit volume decline although "the brand witnessed improving trends towards the end of the quarter aided by the enhanced value proposition in the prevailing soft copra price environment". Value added hair oils grew in low single digits in value terms, mainly dragged by the subdued rural sentiment, it said, adding that Saffola oils recovered with high single-digit volume growth on a ..
