For the October-December quarter (Q3FY22), ITC reported strong all-around revenue performance led by robust recovery across markets due to rise in mobility and efficient distribution system. Cigarettes staged a recovery with revenues at Rs 6,959 crore, compared with Rs 6,091 crore a year ago. Pre-tax profits from the segment stood at Rs 4,187 crore, compared with Rs 3,659 crore in the year-ago period.

The company’s cigarettes business was one of the worst impacted businesses in last two years due to Covid-19 disruptions. Cigarette business growth in the current quarter reflects that volumes surpassed pre-covid high levels. Margins of this segment rose 55 bps, driving 14 per cent year-on-year growth in earnings before interest and tax (EBIT).

Similarly faster growth in paperboard business also reflected demand recovery from the user industries. Though, FMCG business has grown at a slower pace of 9.3 per cent, it is still stronger growth compared to most other FMCG peers, according to ICICI Securities. The brokerage believes stable taxation on cigarettes would result in high growth in cigarette volumes in the medium term.

ITC continued to see an improvement in market standing, with innovation and interventions addressing gaps. Stability in taxes remains key for the industry to sustain steady volume growth and gains from illicit trades, said Emkay Global Financial Services said in a result update.
