Its revenue from operations rose 55.22 per cent to Rs 2,081 crore on a lower base of the pandemic-impacted corresponding quarter of FY22.
In the year-ago period, Whirlpool of India’s revenue from operations stood at Rs 1,340.61 crore.
Top-line growth this quarter was “on the back of significant price increases taken earlier”, it said in an earnings statement.
The company’s Managing Director Vishal Bhola said, “It was a strong start to the year with robust revenue growth of 55 per cent and PAT growth of 230 per cent although on a low Covid-impacted quarter. The industry showed good recovery in mid and premium while the entry segment was muted with inflation putting stress on consumer spending.”
Whirlpool of India’s total expenses were at Rs 1,998.60 crore, up 51.18 per cent compared to Rs 1,321.92 crore a year ago.
“We remain confident in Whirlpool’s ability to successfully navigate through what is likely for some time to be a volatile external environment,” Bhola added.
