Management Discussion & Analysis The Indian dairy sector is divided into organised and unorganised segments. 54% of the milk produced is retained by the dairy producers (mainly farmers) for their own consumption and used by traditional milkmen and vendors. From the remaining 46% of marketable milk, 70% is unorganised, and 30% is organised. Growing demand for value-added products, rising disposable income levels, changing consumer dietary patterns, and increasing awareness regarding the nutritious value of milkbased products, amongst other factors are driving growth in the Indian dairy market. The Company recorded a Total Revenue of ` 17,307 Million for FY 16-17, an increase of 5.14% as against ` 16,452 Million recorded in the previous financial year. Impacted by the high raw milk prices, EBITDA witnessed a decline of 27% from ` 1,482 Million in FY 15-16 to ` 1,082 Million in FY 16-17. Subsequently, the PAT margins witnessed a decline of 190 bps in from 2.9% in FY 15-16 to 1.0% in FY 16-17.

To ensure the competitiveness and sustained growth of the Indian dairy industry, the quality of animals, technical skills, land availability, capital, credit, infrastructure and other inputs relevant to the value chain are critical. Tackling such challenges and managing risks and controls forms an integral part of the business planning and review cycle at the Company.
