For the quarter, revenue grew by 9.3% y-o-y with a volume growth of 7% led by innovations and better revenue mix. Gross margin stood at 53.9% and operating profit grew by 13.3% y-o-y, with OPM standing at 23.3%. Domestic business volume growth will stand at high single digit in the coming quarters; margin expansion would sustain. We have marginally reduced our earnings estimates by 2.3%/1.6% for FY2020/21 to factor in lower than earlier expected revenue growth.

We maintain our Buy recommendation on the stock with a revised price target of Rs1990 (in-line with reduction of FY2021E estimates).
