Yes Securities Report
Whirlpool Of India Ltd.'s standalone revenue came in below ours and consensus estimates with, revenue declining 7.4% YoY. This decline is on back of ~12% price increase on YoY basis indicating higher volume decline for the company.
Entry level products have been witnessing demand slowdown in high inflationary environment. Our channel checks suggest Whirlpool of India is losing out on market share in hyper competitive market as other players have been pricing their products aggressively in quest to gain market share.
On the margin front, Whirlpool of India continues to see gross margin erosion of 350 basis points YoY, while on sequential basis it has improved 124 bps on lower commodity prices.
Gross margins are still way below their historical averages.
Although it has devised strategy of regaining its lost market share and further building on it in ensuing quarters, we feel market share gains will be a difficult and long drawn process in current hyper competitive scenario.
