For example, the revenues of the switchgears business grew by 13% and the electrical cables business was up 18.3%. Lightings and fixtures grew 32% while electrical consumer goods business grew 26%. Even the Lloyds consumer business saw top line grow 23.5%. However, all these segments saw flat to tepid growth in EBIT profits while the Lloyds consumer business slipped into negative EBIT.
The big challenge that Havells faced in the quarter was the sharp spike in raw material costs. This has been a feature of most of the Indian companies across sectors and the supply chain constraints have only worsened over the last few months. This challenge got heightened by higher interest costs. Despite efforts by Havells to tweak its inventory more effectively to reduce the operating costs, the damage on the profit growth was done.
Net margins at 9.34% were lower than 13.27% in Sep-20 quarter but marginally better than 9.03% NPM in the sequential Jun-21 quarter.
