Each of our core businesses reported marked improvement in performance. Concerted efforts taken at de-risking the oleo-chemicals business by improving contribution from specialty chemicals and a healthy growth reported by end-user industries have enabled such an enhanced performance.

Agri-businesses have concluded the year with healthy results, contributing meaningfully to both revenues and profits and the focus for the coming year will be to accelerate Oil Palm cultivation and make inroads in drip irrigation.

Godrej Properties continues in its growth trajectory and we have expanded our footprint into 11 cities with presence in North, South, East and West India. We expect to maintain similar growth in the coming years given its distinct business model and ability to leverage the ‘Godrej’ brand.

Strategic domestic and international acquisitions marked the year at Godrej Consumer

Products Limited (GCPL), transforming GCPL into an emerging markets multinational.

True to our corporate culture, the allround business growth has been accompanied by concerted efforts in social initiatives. We will further our commitment to sustainable growth through ‘shared value’ initiatives that create both social and business benefits. Our effort ‘Godrej Good & Green’ is a step in creating a more inclusive and greener

India”.
