The large population in the rural and semi urban regions is driving demand growth, with continuous rise in disposable income etc. The consumer goods sector in India has managed to defy the trend. Indias FMCG industry has so far been resilient to the slowdown in the economy and a dip in consumer sentiment. As said by Mr. William pinckey I am not saying that our company is recession proof but it is recession resilient. Price hike and cost cutting were the first lines of defense in a bid to protect margins.
