Anjali Ojha: Thank you. Hi, good evening everyone. I would like to welcome the Management and thank
them for this opportunity.
We have with us today Mr. Ankit Gupta – President, Marketing and Mr. Ajay Patodia – Chief
Financial Officer.
I will now hand over this call to the Management for their opening remarks. Over to you, sir.
Ankit Gupta: Thank you, Anjali. Good evening, everyone, and welcome to our Q1 FY '27 Earnings Call.
Before we begin, I would like to extend my sincere gratitude to our shareholders, analysts and
partners. Your continued trust is what drives us to maintain execution discipline, uphold the
highest standards of governance and remain focused on compounding long-term value.
I would also request everyone to take note of the Safe Harbor statement in our presentation.
We are pleased to report that operating income for the quarter stood at INR 405 crore. Gross
profit for the quarter grew 6.9% year-on-year to INR 151 crore with the gross profit margin
expanding 192 basis points YoY to 37.4%. This improvement was supported by the calibrated
price increase implemented during the quarter which we had flagged in our previous call, and it
is encouraging to see it translate into healthier realizations and stronger margins.
Operating EBITDA rose 11.4% year-on-year to INR 48 crore with the operating EBITDA
margin improving 106 basis points year-on-year to 11.8%, reflecting the benefit of better gross
margins alongside our continued focus on operational efficiency.
Profit after tax grew 22.1% year-on-year to INR 26 crore with the PAT margin expanding 108
basis points year-on-year to 6.4%.
Moving on to Project Lakshya:

As indicated previously, we have now commenced Phase-2 of Project Lakshya. We have begun
building the team for this phase and have started mapping the retailers we aim to activate across
our target markets. Our initial focus is on strengthening our presence in the stronghold states by
increasing the number of active retailers, thereby deepening our market share in these regions.
In parallel, in markets where our presence is currently limited, we are analyzing local
competitive dynamics and retailer potential to develop tailored market entry strategies. As on
June 2026, we have 327 Lakshya distributors across 14 states and Lakshya distributors
contributed 31% of our business to Q1 FY '27. As the program scales, we expect this to continue
driving increased market penetration, stronger secondary sales, and improved working capital
efficiency at the distributor level.
Let me now highlight some of the key business and operational trends during the quarter:
Our continued investments in newer channels are yielding encouraging results. The quick
commerce channel sustained its strong growth trajectory, recording 59.4% value growth and
15.1% volume growth year-on-year, with its contribution to revenue increasing to 5% in Q1 FY
'27 from 3.1% in Q1 FY '26. This underscores the growing relevance of these channels and the
evolving buying behavior of consumers.
Moving to our brand portfolio, Dollar Protect, our rain guard segment, continued to perform
well, recording 49% value growth and 68% volume growth in Q1 FY '27 and contributing 5.6%
to our total overall revenue.
Our regional performance also remained encouraging. The southern region delivered 22.9%
value growth and 7.3% volume growth on a year-on-year basis, taking its contribution to our
overall business to 8.9% in Q1 FY '27 from 7.2% in Q1 FY '26. We remained focused on
strengthening our presence and capturing the opportunities available in this region.
Our export business also continued to perform well, recording 16.2% value growth and 15.5%
volume growth year-on-year, with its contribution increasing to 4.9% in Q1 FY '27 from 4.2%
in Q1 FY '26. During the quarter, we generated export revenue of INR 19 crore across 15
countries and will continue to focus on expanding our international footprint.
Our strategic alliance with G.O.A.T continues to progress well, amplified by our deepening
footprint in modern retail and quick commerce. In Q1 FY '27, this partnership generated a
revenue of INR 16.44 crore, a 21% year-on-year increase, with a Q1 PAT of INR 2.27 crores
and a PAT margin of 13.8%.
As we progressed through the fiscal year, we remained focused on enhancing operational
efficiencies while deepening our presence across our core products, core markets, newer
channels, and export geographies. We are confident that this disciplined, execution-driven

approach will continue to create sustainable long-term value for our consumers, partners, and
shareholders.

our financial performance. Over to you, Ajay ji.
