statements, which involve a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to
differ materially from those in such forward-looking statements.
I now hand over to Ms. Akshali Shah for opening remarks. Over to you, Akshali.
Akshali Shah: Thank you, Brian. Good evening, everyone, and thank you for joining us today. Before I begin,
I would like to welcome Mr. Rakesh Kothari, who has recently taken over as the Chief Financial
Officer of the company. I'm confident that he will add a significant strength to our finance
function as we continue to build a stronger governance and financial framework and will take
Parag to a newer height. Let me begin with the quarter.
Q1 FY27 has been a quarter of continued execution for Parag Milk Foods. We delivered our
highest ever Q1 revenue of INR945 crores, representing 11% year-on-year value growth and 3%
volume growth. EBITDA stood at INR70 crores. Absolute EBITDA grew by 6% year-on-year,
while the EBITDA margin was 7.4% compared to 7.7% last year. The PBT remained broadly
flat, while the PAT declined by 20%, primarily due to the current tax impact in this year.
What is important to us is not just the headline revenue growth, but how we have navigated the
cost environment while continuing to build the business. The milk prices at INR42 per litre
during the quarter, 13% higher year-on-year and flat sequentially. We responded to this through
a combination of calibrated price increases, a better product mix and targeted promotional
optimization and acceleration.
As a result, the gross profit increased by 11% to INR258 crores, in line with the overall revenue
growth, demonstrating that the cost push has been passed on. And as a result, gross margins
remain stable. For us, this is an important aspect of the Parag model. We are not looking at
pricing in isolation. We are managing price, product mix, promotion and category growth while
continuing to protect the health of our overall dairy ecosystem.
Our flagship categories, that is ghee, cheese, paneer and dahi, continue to form the backbone of
the business contributing to 61% of our Q1 revenue. The flagship categories volume declined
by 2% year-on-year, mainly due to a transient slowdown. But in B2C within the flagship
categories recorded a robust growth, while the B2B declined modestly. The overall value
growth, however, stands at 10% year-on-year. Go Cheese has 35% market share, and we are #2
in the cheese category in India.
We are doubling our cheese production capacity from 60 metric tons per day to 120 metric tons
per day over the next 1.5 years. With this capacity expansion, we will be able to drive a parallel
expansion in our whey protein generation. This will enable us to tap the opportunity of both the
categories, which is cheese and whey, a step towards becoming a health and nutrition
powerhouse.
The new age business, that is Pride of Cows and Avvatar, grew by 59% year-on-year in this
quarter and now contributes to around 13% of our overall revenue versus 9% in the Q1 last year.
This progress is in line with the road map that we have laid out for this business. Through these

brands, we are building a differentiated presence across premium dairy, health and wellness,
sports nutrition and functional nutrition, clearly defining and strengthening our right to win in
this space.
Avvatar is allowing us to build a much broader sports and nutrition functional and nutrition
platform. The portfolio has expanded well and beyond the whey protein powders to now
