📈 Gross margin improved by approximately 70 bps YoY to 50.2%, primarily driven by a favourable product mix, the company says.
🏭 Cello World says its in-house steel bottle manufacturing facility in Rajasthan is progressing towards the ramp-up phase, and the company expects production to scale up steadily through H2 FY27 on a gradual expansion of the SKU portfolio.
📌 The company says a portion of the seasonal and institutional gifting demand has shifted from Q2 to Q3 FY27 because the festive season falls later this year.
