Comments by Motilal Oswal

Motilal Oswal said, "There was a clear emphasis on driving double-digit underlying volume growth (UVG) in the medium term. This would be achieved through: a) 50% coming from penetration gains in 50% of the portfolio. Two areas where he has seen impressive progress of late is a) healthy domestic volume growth in the last 18 months, and b) Africa and Latin America businesses are turning around - both of which were problem areas earlier."
