“Our performance during the quarter was modest despite prevailing subdued demand scenario. We recorded a  topline growth of around 15% primarily driven by growth in dine-in segment. During the first nine months, we  have added 31 new restaurants. Currently, we have around 14 restaurants under fit-out, which gives us  confidence of achieving our guidance of adding 40 new restaurants in FY23. We remain focussed on growing each  of our 4 business verticals to build one of India’s largest food services company owning its restaurant brands.” 

Mr. Kayum Dhanani, Managing Director

“Our revenue growth during the quarter was primarily led by growth in dine-in business. The performance of  delivery segment was encouraging with around 15% sequential growth. Our delivery transaction volumes  continued to increase and with stable AOVs. This improvement was primarily driven by recent initiatives such as  menu re-engineering, new combo meals and launch of new Biryani brand, ‘Dum Safar’. Dum Safar is now available  at over 50% of our network and continues to generate strong traction from customers. We remain focused on  strengthening and accelerating our core dine-in business, growth in the delivery vertical, unlocking the growth  potential of Toscano and calibrated international expansion.”
