FMCG revenues to rise in Q2, but costs could dent margins

India's FMCG sector is expected to see a significant revenue increase in the second quarter, with growth projected in double digits. This rise is due to higher product volumes and strategic pricing strategies across various categories. However, the surge in raw material costs, such as sugar and edible oils, may negatively impact profit margins. This could offset the benefits of increased revenue, making it challenging for companies to maintain their profit margins.
