Arvind Verma: Thank you, Kasturi. Good morning, everyone and thank you for joining us on the call today. Before I get into the numbers, let me first set the context for the quarter. Q1 FY27 was a mixed quarter for discretionary consumption. The earlier part of the quarter saw some softness reflecting broader macro headwinds and cautious consumer spending before demand trends improved as the quarter progressed. The longer-term drivers for branded footwear and apparel such as organized retail, broader acceptance of branded products, premiumization and omnichannel buying behavior remain in place. At the same time, the quarter also saw near-term unevenness across channels and pressure across key cost lines including inputs, labour and sourcing. For RedTape, the operating stance during the quarter was clear. We chose to protect consumer value and manage the cost environment through sharper execution across sourcing, supply chain and retail operations without taking price increases. This discipline also translated into a strong bottom-line outcome. Profit after tax grew 19.4% year-on-year to INR47 crores, marking RedTape's highest ever Q1 profit in absolute terms. The performance was achieved despite wage-related pressures in key manufacturing states, reflecting the strength of the operating model built across the business. Page 2 of 14 RedTape Limited August 11, 2026 Revenue on a standalone basis grew by 3.7% year-on-year, reflecting the resilience of the core India business despite an uneven demand environment in the early part of the quarter. This is a more relevant indicator of underlying performance as it captures the strength of our primary business across retail and domestic channels. The growth was delivered while absorbing key operating cost headwinds, reinforcing the importance of execution-led efficiencies and disciplined channel management during the quarter. In the e-commerce channel, online marketplaces continued to push for higher discounting to drive turnover. Our approach remained measured and disciplined. RedTape does not believe in pursuing volume at the cost of brand strength or margins and therefore chose not to participate in incremental discounting beyond levels we considered appropriate. This had a near-term impact on e-commerce turnover. However, it helped protect channel profitability and ensured that the online business remained aligned with our broader profitability- first approach. After some softness in the early part of the quarter, the core India retail business saw improving trends and continued to perform well overall. This remains an important indicator of the underlying health of the business, reflecting the strength of the store-led model, RedTape's consumer proposition and demand across our primary operating channels. On profitability the quarter reflected efficiencies across sourcing, supply chain and retail operations. The key point is that we were able to protect margins without compromising either our pricing architecture or our consumer proposition. Average selling prices improved sequentially across footwear and apparel categories, including select categories such as open footwear. This was driven by product and category mix within the existing price architecture rather than broad-based price increase. On the numbers specifically, standalone revenue for Q1 FY27 was INR480 crores compared with INR460 crores in Q1 FY26, reflecting growth of 3.7% year-on-year. Gross margin stood at 47.5%, EBITDA margin was 20.4% and PAT came in at INR47 crores compared with INR39 crores year-on-year. Moving to some key business highlights for the quarter. There was a strategic portfolio expansion in April 2026, RedTape acquired the rights to the globally recognized sportswear brand Sprandi for India, Bangladesh, Nepal, Bhutan, Sri Lanka and some other countries, strengthening its sports and athleisure portfolio. The brand is expected to be launched in India through online and retail channels by end of September. E-commerce discipline, the company consciously avoided excessive marketplace- led discounting, prioritizing brand integrity and healthy margins over short-term turnover growth. The core India retail business remained healthy with demand improving as the quarter progressed after a softer start.
