ICICI Securities Report

Bajaj Consumer Care Ltd.’s Q2 revenue grew 4% as hair oil category grew 1% in July-August 2020.

A consensus beat. New Managing Director, Jaideep Nandi (joined on January 02, 2020) has his task cut out, taking charge during a weak demand situation.

On the positive side, Bajaj Consumer has the levers of -

  1. higher gross margins (resources to invest in advertisement spends),
  2. increasing direct distribution,
  3. focus on rural India and
  4. introduction of lower priced SKUs and increased focus on Bajaj Amla (gooseberry) hair oil to tackle downtrading by seeking consumers.
