Manish Tiwary, Chairman and Managing Director of Nestle India stated, “I am happy to report that domestic sales grew at a double-digit rate, led by volume growth. Three out of four product groups delivered strong volume led double-digit growth. Our domestic sales reached INR 5,411 crore, the highest ever recorded in any quarter."

He said that the recent changes in the Goods and Services Tax (GST) are a positive step for consumers. "It is expected to stimulate consumption, drive affordability and contribute to the overall growth of the FMCG sector and the economy. We have been working closely with our partners, distributors, wholesalers, and retailers to pass on the benefits of the revised GST rates across our product groups to our consumers," Tiwary added.

On the commodity outlook, the leading FMCG player said that milk prices are anticipated to soften post the festive season, coinciding with the onset of the flush season.

Coffee prices are expected to stabilise and may decrease as the upcoming crops in Vietnam and India appear to be normal. "The global supply and demand for cocoa are projected to balance, primarily due to a correction in demand over the past two years. Edible oil prices are expected to remain firm and may rise further due to a tight supply and demand at the global level," it added.
