However, the company’s EBITDA margin (a measure of profitability) dropped slightly by 1.3 percentage points to 22.8%, due to higher spending on business development. HUL’s total expenses went up by 7.25% to Rs 13,284 crore, while total income rose by 4.7% to Rs 16,715 crore.
HUL’s CEO Rohit Jawa said that consumer demand stayed steady, and people are buying more frequently. He mentioned that the company increased its investments to support long-term growth and product improvement, leading to healthy growth in both sales and volume.
Looking ahead, he said this slow but steady recovery is expected to continue.
