Motilal Oswal Report

Tata Consumer Products Ltd.’s 1QFY21 results were robust (ahead of expectations), mainly led by improvement in standalone performance.

Standalone Ebitda grew 40% YoY due to better realisations, favourable commodity costs and lower discretionary expenditure. Strong operating performance was witnessed across businesses (barring Tata Coffee standalone).

Revenues were up 13% YoY to Rs 27.1 billion (versus estimate Rs 25.3 billion). Ebitda grew 38% YoY to Rs 4.8 billion (versus estimate Rs 3.8 billion). Note that base quarter performance includes India Food business numbers (erstwhile Tata Chemicals’ consumer business).

Ebitda margin expanded 310 basis points YoY to 17.8% due to 180 basis points expansion in gross margin, lower advertisement spends and operating leverage. Adjusted profit after tax rose 45% YoY to Rs 2.6 billion.

The higher growth was due to margin expansion and lower tax rate of 22.1% (versus 34.1% last year).
