Few insights from ITC’s Q2 results and investor presentation:
-
ITC delivered robust top-line growth in Q2 FY25, with Segment Revenue reaching ₹23,025 crores, a 9.3% YoY increase. This growth was propelled by notable contributions from various segments:
- FMCG: Both cigarettes and other FMCG products witnessed healthy growth, recording 6.1% and 6.3% YoY increases respectively.
- Hotels: The segment demonstrated a strong rebound with a 10.9% YoY growth in revenue.
- Agri Business: A significant 22.2% YoY surge in revenue was observed in this segment.
-
Despite this overall growth, the Paperboards, Paper & Packaging segment experienced a decline, with revenue decreasing by 6.8% YoY. The presentation attributes this performance to the impact of low-priced Chinese supplies, subdued domestic demand, and subdued realizations.
