Our focus has remained steadfast on driving profitability through discipline, execution, and operational efficiency.
The ethnic business is a very beautiful business shaping up extremely well both in terms of size and profitability.
Pantaloons has not delivered consistent same-store growth for some time, and that's the holy grail we are trying to chase.
Our ethnic portfolio, the most comprehensive in the country, continues to deliver consistent growth in both revenue and profitability.
We have covered a large part of our closures; there is restructuring is done.
The only losses will still be remaining in Tasua. TCNS would have completely turned around and designer portfolio as a whole is quite profitable.
Our larger businesses including Pantaloons and TCNS continue to progress along a clear strategic path and are now well positioned to contribute meaningfully to overall growth.
The profile of the customer... there is clearly a shift in terms of the profile being more younger which again is in line with the stated strategy.
We are looking for mid to high single-digit growth in Pantaloons L2L and a double-digit growth at an overall level.
Our growths are very strong both in terms of L2L and total growth even for the period November to March.
We are seeing a fairly consistent uptick in almost all measurements both quantitative and qualitative gives us confidence that much of what has been worked upon in last year and a half is actually turning into a consumer benefit.
We have seen cycles over a long period of time. Obviously, if there is a crisis, we'll have to react differently. But we are pretty confident that this is the sort of right structure.
