Speaking on Bata India?s Q3 FY26 performance, MD and CEO Gunjan Shah, said, ?the improvement in demand post-GST 2.0 rollout continued during the quarter, supported by a few green shoots, resulting in strong EBITDA performance driven by sales and margin growth. All channels delivered growth with solid gross margin management, reflecting disciplined execution of key strategic levers. Premium products, particularly brands like Hush Puppies and Power, showed robust growth, while fresh sales contribution rose quarter-on-quarter. The company added 27 franchise stores, and the Zero Base Merchandising (ZBM) project was scaled to 400+ stores, improving consumer experience and revenue per square foot. Inventory efficiencies in both quantity and quality continued, with gross inventory reduction of 11%. Shah noted that initiatives in decluttering, inventory freshness, and cost optimization helped drive operating margin leverage, and continued marketing investments, along with a focus on strategic levers ? product, channels, and inventory ? keep the company optimistic for the future under GST 2.0.?
