✦ AI-Generated from Full Transcript
Tata Consumer Products delivered a strong Q3 FY24 with consolidated revenue growth of 9% and EBITDA expansion of 190 bps. India beverages saw tea volume growth of 2% (fourth consecutive quarter of positive volume), while India foods grew 5% volume and 13% revenue. Growth businesses (Sampann, NourishCo, Soulfull, Yumside) surged 42%, now contributing 17% of India business. International business recorded 11% revenue growth with EBIT up 23%. The company closed the Capital Foods acquisition and expects to close Organic India within 45-60 days, targeting integration within 100 days. Management guided for NourishCo to reach INR 900-1,000 crore for FY24 and aims to grow the contribution of growth businesses to 30% with 30% growth post-acquisitions. Risks include U.S. coffee category softness and volatility in coffee prices, which could pressure international margins.
टाटा कंज्यूमर प्रोडक्ट्स ने तीसरी तिमाही में अच्छा प्रदर्शन किया। कुल कमाई 9% बढ़ी और मुनाफा (EBITDA) 190 बेसिस पॉइंट बढ़ा। चाय की बिक्री 2% बढ़ी, लगातार चौथी तिमाही में यह सकारात्मक रही। खाद्य पदार्थों की बिक्री 5% और कमाई 13% बढ़ी। नए व्यवसाय (सांपन्न, नौरिशको, सोलफुल, यमसाइड) 42% बढ़े, जो अब भारत के कारोबार का 17% हैं। अंतरराष्ट्रीय कारोबार में कमाई 11% और मुनाफा 23% बढ़ा। कंपनी ने कैपिटल फूड्स खरीद लिया और ऑर्गेनिक इंडिया को 45-60 दिनों में खरीदेगी। नौरिशको से इस साल 900-1,000 करोड़ रुपये की कमाई का लक्ष्य है। जोखिम: अमेरिका में कॉफी की मांग कमजोर और कॉफी के दामों में उतार-चढ़ाव।
