Mumbai, 11th August 2023: Reporting the strongest first quarter performance both in terms of
revenue and EBITDA, the company continues to demonstrate consistent profitable growth despite
subdued consumer demand and challenging market conditions. The revenue for the quarter stood at
₹ 1,826 Cr with highest ever first quarter EBITDA margin of 13.8% in a seasonally weak quarter. Our
continued focus on casualization and premiumization in the Branded Apparel segment enabled a
topline growth of 16% along with a steady growth showcased by our Branded Textile business in
comparison to the same quarter last year.
The real estate business continues to witness a strong demand for its offerings with a recent launch
in July-23 of premium residential project at Thane with RERA carpet area of about 1 million square
feet with a revenue potential of over ₹ 2,000 Cr. The consumer demand for our real estate project at
Thane continues to be encouraging.
Commenting on the performance, Gautam Hari Singhania, Chairman & Managing Director, Raymond
Limited said; “This was a momentous quarter for us as the Raymond group became net debt free
post the sale of our FMCG business. During the seasonally weak first quarter and subdued consumer
demand, the company has recorded a strong and steady performance across businesses. The quarter
witnessed a lesser number of wedding days compared to the corresponding quarter last year that
was a dampener for consumer demand. However, going forward we are optimistic as festive and
wedding season will set in during the second half of the year giving an impetus to the consumer
demand across the country. The silver lining for the quarter was our recent value unlocking initiative
of Lifestyle business demerger which is under progress. Post demerger, we will have two
independent consumer facing net debt free listed entities for Lifestyle and Real Estate businesses
and there is significant liquidity surplus of over ₹ 1,500 Cr. at the Group level to drive future growth.”
