Dabur Share Price Slipped Over 4%: Expects Low Single Digit Revenue Growth in Q3 FY25

On January 6, 2025, Dabur share price dropped more than 4% in the morning session, reaching a low of ₹501.15 at 10:15 AM, after opening at ₹523.00. The fall in Dabur share price followed the company’s release of its Q3 FY25 expectations on January 3.

Dabur’s Business Challenge

Dabur projected its consolidated revenue to grow in the low single digits for the December quarter, with profit growth expected to remain flat compared to the previous year for the quarter ending December 31. The company noted that rural consumption stayed resilient and continued to outpace urban markets. While general trade faced challenges, alternative channels like modern trade, e-commerce, and quick commerce experienced strong growth.

Dabur also highlighted inflationary pressures in certain business segments, which it partially offset through price hikes and cost-efficiency measures.

Dabur’s Business Segment

Here are the company’s expectations for its business segments in the quarter:

• Home and Personal Care: Expected to grow in the mid-to-high single digits
• Health Care: Likely to remain flat due to the delayed onset of winter
• Beverages: Performance expected to be subdued
• Homemade and Badshah: Expected to maintain strong performance with double-digit growth

Dabur’s international business is projected to see double-digit growth in constant currency terms, driven by strong momentum in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, Egypt, Bangladesh, and the US. Looking ahead, Dabur expects a sequential improvement in FMCG growth and plans to focus on increasing its market share across its portfolio.
