Meanwhile, Relaxo Footwears Ltd.’s Chairman Managing Director, Ramesh Kumar Dua, commented on the financial results, blaming the decline on low demand. “The company reported a decline in revenues during the quarter as the overall demand remained subdued. During the quarter, the industry witnessed an increase in lower priced unorganised competition, which led to downtrading by consumers in a high inflation environment,” he said.
