Commenting on the year end and quarter performance, Mr. Bharat Puri, Managing Director, Pidilite Industries Ltd, said: “Over the year, we have been able to deliver consistent and robust value and volume growth across our businesses as well as geographies. Despite significant input cost volatility and supply challenges, we have managed our profitability reasonably well assisted by a combination of calibrated pricing and effective cost management actions. This quarter registered price led growth with volumes being subdued on account of a significantly enhanced base (45% growth in same quarter last year) along with the pandemic closures in January. Input prices were the highest in this quarter over the last few years. While there are near term concerns around significant inflation and the impact of this on market growth, we are confident of the medium to long-term prospects of the home improvement sector and remain focused on delivering consistent and profitable volume led growth.”
