Pratik Pota: Good afternoon, and welcome to the Q2 FY '27 earnings call of Eureka Forbes Limited. Let me
begin with the performance for the quarter.
In line with our strategy to accelerate growth, I'm pleased to share that revenue grew 15% in Q2
FY '27. For the first half, revenue growth now stands at 15.1%, a clear step-up from 12.7% in
H1 last year. What was particularly encouraging was the quality and breadth of the growth.
Growth was broad-based across channels and categories, with the product business delivering
high teens growth year-on-year. Within that, our Water Purifier business continued its strong
momentum, delivering high teens growth and gaining market share.
Growth was driven by a healthy combination of volumes and higher ASPs, with particularly
strong momentum in the economy segment, while our mid-tier and premium offerings also
performed well. Water purifier penetration in India remains relatively low, and we see
significant headroom for category expansion.
Our strategy is therefore clear: to make water purification accessible to many more households
while continuing to premiumize and innovate at the top end of the market. Our innovation
pipeline remains robust. And during the quarter, we accelerated the pace of new product
introductions. In Water Purifiers, we launched the industry-first 4-year product range designed
to reduce lifetime cost and to make purifier ownership convenient for consumers.
We are also encouraged by the sustained market share gains we have seen in Water Purifiers
over the past few quarters. An important enabler has been the significant strengthening of our
in-store presence. We are currently rolling out Eureka Forbes branded fixtures across large retail
stores, improving the visibility of the point of sale, and strengthening customer engagement and
conversion.
Beyond the core, our emerging categories, comprising robotic vacuum cleaners, water softeners
and air purifiers, grew significantly faster than company average, reinforcing the conviction in
these categories as future growth engines and in our ambition to build Eureka Forbes into a
broader health and hygiene company.

Robotic vacuum cleaners continued to grow strongly, driven by premiumization and increasing
adoption of fully automated cleaning solutions. We increasingly see robotic cleaners becoming
a part of the daily use appliance ecosystem in Indian households. Our new campaign, Ghar Ka
Naya Favorite, builds on this insight by positioning the robotic cleaners as a trusted new member
of the family, delivering effortless cleaning and convenience.
Water softeners delivered healthy double-digit growth, led by strong volume momentum and
increasing category adoption. Our priority here is to accelerate category adoption and category
creation through consumer education. Our new campaign, Life Hard Nahi, Aapka Pani Hard
Hai, connects hard water with everyday consumer concerns such as air fall, and is designed to
build awareness of both the problem and the solution.
Our air purifier business also scaled up sharply ahead of the seasonal demand period, delivering
strong growth during the quarter. We launched 6 new SKUs under the Aeroguard brand,
materially strengthening our portfolio and positioning us well for the opportunity in the second
half.
Turning to service. Our performance remained broadly in line with the trajectory of the previous
quarter. The impact of the AMC price increases taken earlier in the year continued to be partly
visible and has been compounded by the broader inflationary environment. That said, servicing
remains fundamental to water purifier ownership, and we remain confident of demand revival.
At the same time, we continue to strengthen our core service proposition. Aquaguard Express
Care with same-day service promise is one such example of how we are making our proposition
much more differentiated and improving the customer experience. Encouragingly, growth in our
Filter business accelerated during the quarter, supported by stronger customer engagement and
awareness.
Given the size of our installed customer base, we see a significant long-term opportunity to
increase filter penetration and build a larger recurring revenue stream from this franchise. Let
me put the quarter's performance in perspective from a quality of growth point of view. Our 15%
revenue growth this quarter comes on top of 14.9% growth in Q2 last year.
Against this demanding base, the performance gives us greater confidence that the growth
acceleration that we've been working towards is taking hold. Importantly, this acceleration has
not come at the expense of profitability. Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded by 43 basis points
year-on-year to 13.6% in Q2, reflecting disciplined cost management and operating leverage.
At the same time, commodity inflation has intensified in recent months and is beginning to create
pressure on gross margins. We deliberately refrained from taking pricing actions during the
festive period, choosing instead to prioritize growth, customer acquisition and category
expansion.
Going forward, we will remain agile. We are evaluating selective pricing interventions where
appropriate while continuing to drive productivity and cost optimization across the organization.
Our objective is to offset inflationary pressures without compromising the growth momentum
we have worked hard to build.
