Dabur expects a "low single-digit growth" in the December quarter along with a "flattish operating profit" as the homegrown FMCG major faced inflationary headwinds in some of the segments.

NEW DELHI:

This forced Dabur to go for "tactical price increases" and tried to mitigate the inflationary pressure through cost-efficiency initiatives partially, Dabur informed in its quarterly updates on Friday.

During the October-December period, rural consumption of FMCG was resilient and continued to grow faster.

Alternative channels like modern trade, e-commerce, and quick commerce continued to post strong growth, while general trade, which mainly includes neighbourhood kirana stores was still under pressure in the October-December period.

In the domestic market, Dabur's HPC (home & personal care) is expected to grow in the mid to high single digits, while Health Care is expected to be 'flattish' due to the delayed winter onset.
