Hul Food and Drinks Coffee Ice Cream Tea Jam & Ketchup Atta Home Care Detergen T Toiletries Personal Care Shampoo Soap Water Purifier Pureit

HUL operates in three segments: food and drinks, home care, and personal care. Margins in food and drinks are expected to be stable or increase as input prices like coffee and wheat decline. Margins in home care will likely improve due to falling crude oil prices, a key input for detergents and toiletries. Margins in personal care will remain stable as palm oil prices have been steady and crude oil prices are decreasing. However, competition from Patanjali, which has grown rapidly and undercuts prices, may stress HUL's margins.

The above hierarchy describes the various products that HUL manufactures and
markets.In the Food and Drinks segment, raw Coffee prices are reducing and hence
margins might improve(Data from Coffee board).In the same segment milk diaries
have increased the prices of milk which is an important input to ice-creams. Tea
prices are said to be stable in the near future. Wheat commodity prices are showing
a steady decline. Hence in general in the near future the margins for HUL in the
food and drinks segment is either stable or increasing. In the Home care segment,
margins are likely to improve due to falling crude prices which is an important
inputs to chemicals used to manufacture Detergent and Toiletries. In the personal
care segment palm oil prices have remained relatively stable. This combined with
falling crude prices will ensure that margins are stable in the personal care
segment.
Threat from Patanjali: Patanjali a relatively new entrant into the business that HUL
operates in has grown to a company with Rs. 5000 Cr revenue. In a number of
segments Patanjali is a direct competitor to HUL products. Patanjali has undercut its
competitors to capture a significant market share. The competition from Patanjali
may stress HULs margins
