Marico chairman Harsh Mariwala said the company’s direct-to-consumer brands had grown into a Rs 500 crore business. He highlighted innovation culture, faster production cycles and expectations of improved demand and margins in H2FY23 as commodity costs cooled.

Why this matters

The ₹500 crore D2C milestone provides an earlier marker for Marico’s digital-brand strategy, which later supported Q1 FY26 growth and featured alongside 31% Q2 revenue growth amid copra-cost and brand-spend pressure.
