Bata India's Financial Performance: Bata India reported a 53% increase in consolidated profit to 519.79 million rupees for Q2, but this was below analysts' expectations of 587.5 million rupees, attributed to declining consumer demand amid high inflation.
Market Context: Other apparel and footwear retailers also faced lower domestic sales due to high inflation and reduced consumer spending, although some, like Metro Brands, anticipate a recovery in demand during the festive season.
