Godrej Consumer eyes high-teens September-quarter growth, calibrates pricing as palm oil and crude costs rise
Godrej Consumer reported 18.3% consolidated revenue growth to Rs 4,225 crore in the June quarter. It expects September-quarter revenue growth in the high teens and is taking calibrated pricing actions as palm oil and crude-linked input costs rise.

Why it matters to operators and investors
Expect Godrej to pass through palm oil and crude-linked cost inflation with calibrated price moves rather than blanket hikes, so retailers and distributors should prepare for selective shelf-price and promotion renegotiations while it still aims for high-teens growth in the September quarter.
