Chairman's Message
The year 2004-05 was a good year for the Indian economy which grew at about 7% not withstanding a sub normal monsoon and increasing commodity prices. Your Company has delivered industry-outperforming growth in the past in a challenging environment, and so it is only natural that it has performed even more creditably in a more conducive environment.
Godrej Consumer Products' strategy of enhancing margins and increasing market share in the Toilet Soaps category while investing in expanding the Personal Care market, wherein we are leaders, is clearly showing results with smart increases in both revenues and profits.
