NEW DELHI:
Bajaj Consumer Care’s March quarter profit more than doubled on a 40 per cent-plus sales growth. But rising raw material (RM) costs and an adverse product mix hurt gross margins, a trend that may continue in the June quarter.
Analysts said the company’s execution has improved under the new CEO with a focus on product refresh, sharper marketing and distribution, visibility in retail and growing non-ADHO (Almond Drop Hair Oil) portfolio. The revival in dividend distribution trend is positive, they said, and added that the current valuation for the stock is undemanding and it could be up for a rerating.
