The CEO says that the company is eyeing to reframe Complan’s participation in the nutrition space with a set of relaunches and new product introductions
Emphasising that structural growth drivers remain intact with quick commerce and ecommerce continuing to scale the strong momentum, Tarun Arora, Chief Executive Officer and Whole-Time Director, Zydus Wellness, stated that the geographic market expansion and seasonal opportunities are expected to drive growth in calendar year 2026.
“Upcoming new product developments, geographic market expansion and seasonal opportunities are anticipated to provide incremental growth momentum through calendar year 2026,” Arora said during the company’s earnings conference call.
The CEO added that the Comfort Click business has deepened its portfolio with the introduction of four adult gummies variants, one probiotic gummies variant for kids and Pure Himalayan Shilajit Resin, reinforcing its position in high-growth wellness categories. RiteBite Max Protein expanded into two additional international markets, taking its presence to nine countries within the first year.
“Going forward, building on the strong brand equity, we plan to reframe Complan’s participation in the nutrition space with a set of relaunches and new product introductions to be more relevant for contemporary need states. We are also expanding its celebrity-led outreach by partnering with emerging 14-year-old cricket sensation, Vaibhav Suryavanshi, to connect with younger audiences, the CEO pointed out.
Nutralite continued to broaden the portfolio during the quarter and the brand delivered double-digit growth with a six-year compounded annual growth rate, driven by consistent performance across the portfolio.
“I think Comfort Click, we are looking at continued growth of top line in good double-digits, as we have mentioned. Hopefully, with that business operating between 14 per cent plus kind of Ebitda margins. Our base business is where it was and we are looking at taking it to 16 per cent, 17 per cent or 18 per cent levels, which is work in progress,” he pointed out.
On Comfort Click, the CEO noted that the big reliance will remain on growing the existing markets because there is enough room to grow. “The marketplaces will grow, but they want the mix to shift more towards direct-to-consumer (D2C),” he added.
