“The core markets of the company are Madhya Pradesh (~45-50 percent of total revenue; ~35 percent market share), Karnataka (~30-35 percent of total revenue; ~16 percent market share) and Odisha (~10 percent of total revenue; ~12 percent market share). The company remains committed to its strategic objective of entering into new markets and further strengthen its foothold in existing markets. Som Distilleries will continue to evaluate markets based on its potential and profitability. This will enable the company to enhance its market share in medium to long term,” the brokerage firm said in an earlier note.
