The stock plunged as Godrej Consumer Products projected a “flattish” underlying volume growth and a mid-single-digit sales growth in the domestic market in the December quarter. The company has been hit by the hike in soap prices and unseasonal rainfall which has resulted in slowing down sales of the home insecticides (HI) segment.

“The track segment is growing faster and (also) has a larger premium play with the customers yet to figure out the right applications of tracks in construction and mining, which means there is a lot of scope for higher penetration in the track segment. So, between the two, tyres and tracks, the latter is more attractive, where CEAT will focus on growth,” CEAT Managing Director and CEO Arnab Banerjee told PTI in an interaction.
