“The Man Company’s return to growth in June 2025 is especially encouraging, and we are confident of sustaining this trajectory through sharper positioning and a comprehensive brand revamp.

sales, declined by 17 per cent due to adverse weather conditions. Excluding the talc/PHP portfolio, the company’s core domestic business delivered a 6 per cent revenue growth, Emami said in a regulatory filing.
