Outlook and guidance
FY27 growth aspiration is high teens; long-term aspiration remains double-digit growth, with management confident in its targets.
Q3 pricing actions are expected to total ~5%, split between a 2%-3% consumer price increase and MLH reductions.
Aarohan 2.0 targets annual addition of ~60K outlets and ~1,000 distribution partners across states; direct-distribution expansion is targeted at 10%.
Phase 3 is planned for completion in H2 FY27, Phase 1–2 productivity improvement in Q4 FY27, and annual GTM expansion in Q1 FY28.
Margin trajectory remains difficult to predict amid input-price volatility; focus is on limiting volatility and protecting absolute EBITDA.
