- Aditya Birla Group’s revenue crosses Rs 2.5 lakh crore, up 9%
Textiles-to-telecom conglomerate Aditya Birla Group’s consolidated revenue has crossed Rs 2.5 lakh crore mark with a growth of 9 per cent in the latest fiscal, group chief Kumar Mangalam Birla has said.
A PTI report said that Global operations accounted for more than 50 per cent of the group’s revenues, which rose by 8 per cent in the US dollar terms as well to USD 41 billion “regardless of ups and downs in foreign currency”, Birla added.
“I believe that the bottom line and the cash in the till is a greater parameter to gauge performance rather than simply revenues. On this score too, we have done well,” Birla said in his annual letter to the shareholders of Aditya Birla Nuvo Ltd, one of the main holding companies of the group.
Giving details of the overall group-level financials, Aditya Birla said that the group’s EBITDA (Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) rose by 9 per cent to Rs 32,200 crore, while the same in the dollar terms grew by 8 per cent to USD 5.25 billion.
“We have had a good year at the Group level. Our Group’s consolidated revenue crossed the Rs 2.5 trillion mark, setting a new milestone,” he said.
Listing out “steps towards accelerating top line and bottom-line growth and enhancing stakeholder value”, Birla said the company will ensure that it has the right talent at the right time and at the right place for each business.
“Additionally, enhancing customer centricity and excellence capability by developing customer value propositions that are unmatched, stepping up the focus on R&D to increase the share of value-added products across businesses are our focus areas. “The thrust on digitisation across our business processes and using analytics and big data continue,” he said.
