Bimal Thakkar, chairman & managing director, said: 'Despite prevailing challenges including tariffs, West Asia conflict, and supply chain issues, our business saw continued momentum fueled by significant traction from listings secured in the past few quarters and strengthening our brand penetration and distribution across all our key markets. Our flagship brand, Ashoka, continues to strengthen its market presence driven by strong diaspora demand, and our mainstream brand, Truly Indian has exceeded expectations with a marked acceleration in its growth trajectory. We have successfully commenced operations at our Surat greenfield facility in Q4FY26 with scale up planned over the coming quarters. We continue to witness strong brand-led traction, supported by deeper penetration. The ongoing West Asia situation poses near-term challenges to GCC sales, freight costs, and transit timelines. However, with our sustained focus on execution excellence and operational discipline, we remain cautiously optimistic in our ability to maintain the current growth trajectory over the long term.'
