Commenting on the performance of the company Piyush Srivastava, Managing Director, said, 'Given the extraordinary tax increases, a challenging year awaits us. We are adopting a measured pricing approach across our brands to help protect our consumer base. However, growth of illicit trade remains a significant threat to the industry. We are focused on recovering volumes by strengthening our brand portfolio and disciplined in-market execution. In our unmanufactured tobacco business, ongoing geopolitical instability in the Middle East continues to weigh on growth. We remain steadfast in our commitment to creating superior value for consumers and stakeholders.
