Revenue from operations declined 44% on year-n-year (YoY) basis to Rs 364 crore during the quarter. The revenue was adversely affected due to complete nationwide lockdown till first week of May and significant disturbances during remaining period along with slowdown of economic activities.
Other income stood at Rs 7 crore as compared to Re 1 crore in the corresponding period of the previous year. The increase is mainly on account of lease rent waiver/reduction of Rs. 5 crore agreed by lessors for our rented premises.
EBITDA fell 46% to Rs 57 crore during the period under review. EBITDA margin stood at 15.7% in Q1 FY21 as against 16.4% in Q1 FY20.
Commenting on the results and performance, Ramesh Kumar Dua, managing director, said: Q1 was significantly impacted by headwinds of COVID-19 pandemic with complete nationwide lockdown extended till first week of May. However, we saw progressive signs of improvement as the restrictions were eased and this will further improve as India unlocks gradually. Despite challenges we remained profitable with comfortable liquidity position, which is a clear indication of our brand strength, organisation's capabilities and focus on cost efficiencies. We observed good demand in open footwear.
We continued strengthening our e-commerce footprint by leveraging our partnerships with major ecommerce players to provide a safe alternative for customers to order our products. Relaxo is well placed to emerge more resilient and energetic in the post COVID-19 world.
Relaxo Footwears is engaged in production of Hawaii slippers, light weight slippers, canvas shoes, PVC footwear etc.

Valued Customer,
BOB Capital Markets Limited (BOBCaps) is firmly committed to the safety of your wealth. We would like to bring to your notice certain precautions that you certainly must take against potential tele-fraudsters/ unscrupulous and unregistered portfolio managers:
ALWAYS AVOID
Certain tele-fraudsters / unscrupulous and unregistered portfolio managers call customers or SMS them on the pretext of providing investment tips and lure them to invest through their bogus firms by promising huge profits. Such deceitful callers ask the customer to share his/her login credentials with passwords to allow trading in their accounts, assuring huge returns. Often trades done in the customer’s accounts are far from the best interest of the customers. Holdings of customers are often sold and with the funds, trades are then placed in illiquid securities at unrealistic prices. At times, the holdings of customers are sold at prices detrimental to the customer.
The so-called “portfolio manager” assures profits, which naturally does not materialize. Customers are deceived into providing access to their trading accounts, thereby allowing such fraudsters access to funds and securities available to execute trades, injurious to the customer’s interest.
We would like to caution you against such fraudulent calls and SMSes and urge you to be alert. Follow the golden rule:
Do not share your Login Credentials or Passwords with anybody
BOBCaps employees / representatives never ask for your password.
