ICICI Securities Report

Nestle India Ltd.’s domestic revenue grew 10% in Q3 CY20 (with approximately 7% volume growth (our view)), with double-digit growth in culinary (Maggi), chocolates (a positive surprise), coffee (as expected).

The company seems to be in the sweet spot -

  1. structural tailwind from increasing consumer propensity to consume packaged foods,
  2. key input remaining stable and
  3. significant increase in capex (Rs 26 billion planned over CY20-23 which is equal to cumulative capex of CY12-19).

Our long-term positive view is intact; however, our primary research indicates likely lower birth rates in CY21, a potential headwind for its infant nutrition business in CY21.
