"This quarter has been really tough considering the way things panned out on the economic front. The positive market growth momentum witnessed in the second quarter(Q2) aided by good monsoon and flow through of 7th Pay Commission benefits was impacted with implementation of demonetisation in November 2016. The impact in terms of liquidity crunch was felt by our consumers and channel partners, thereby  impacting our revenues with sales dropping in November 2016 sequentially over October 2016 by more than 10%,"  Britannia Industries managing director Varun Berry, said in a press release. 

 

"We took requisite measures to tide over the situation by providing credit to select business partners and improving our sales efficiency. Lower dependency on wholesale channel and our continued focus on enhancing direct reach also helped us during this time. With these steps and increase in availability of cash in the economy, our revenues in December 2016 improved on sequential basis but is still lower than what we would have expected it to be," Berry further added.
