Its accelerated earnings in the non-tobacco businesses over the past two years have helped ITC share price rise and outperform the broader index.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a>Tobacco Business (FMCG-Cigarettes)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>ITC&#8217;s tobacco business is the cash cow for the company and has almost 40% share of the group&#8217;s revenue and over 75% share in the company&#8217;s net profit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With stability in taxes and enforcement agencies&#8217; crackdown on illicit trade activities concerning the sector, The Company has recorded strong volume growth across the product line in recent quarters. Also, new launches and democratizing premiumization across product segment coupled with strong on-ground execution has helped The Company to higher double-digit revenue and earnings growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Q3FY23, revenue from the segment was \u20b97,288 crores, which is 16.8% higher year-on-year, and earnings before interest and taxes were at \u20b94,620 crores, over 63% margin in the segment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With improved earnings visibility, a low material impact from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.equentis.com\/blog\/rural-focus-15-stocks-to-watch-for-budget-2024\/\">Union Budget<\/a> tax increase, and double-digit volume growth, the segment is well-positioned to grow and drive value for the company in the coming quarters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a>Non-tobacco Business<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a>FMCG-Others<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>FMCG-Others is the second-largest contributor to the group&#8217;s revenue and is slowly turning the wheels of growth and has witnessed over 230bps expansion in EBITDA margin in the last two years to reach 10% in Q3FY23.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Food, dairy, beverage, frozen foods, personal care brands such as Vivel and Fiama, education, and stationery drive growth across markets and channels. In the last three quarters, revenue from sales growth consistently hits the high teen percentage growth. In Q3FY23, the FMCG-Others segment reported an 18.3% growth in sales revenue to \u20b94,841 crores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a>Hotel Business<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Although the segment has a low contribution to the group&#8217;s revenue but has a healthy margin. The sector emerged from the pandemic blues, and occupancy <a href=\"https:\/\/www.equentis.com\/blog\/old-tax-regime-slabs\/\">rates<\/a> are above pre-pandemic levels. In Q3FY23, revenue from the segment was at \u20b9712 crores, 50.5% higher than Q3FY22. And the segment EBITDA margin is at 31.5%, compared to 24.7% last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I.T.C has a healthy pipeline of hotel launches in the coming quarters, allowing it to capitalize on market opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The outlook for the sector looks bright, with demand coming from the strong growth surge in travel &amp; tourism activity, the G20 summit, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.equentis.com\/blog\/big-lessons-from-ipl-for-stock-market\/\">IPL<\/a> tournaments, ICC cricket world cup in FY24.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a>Agri-Business<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The agri-business segment was the third-largest contributor to the group&#8217;s revenue in FY22, underperforming due to government restrictions on wheat and rice exports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The segment&#8217;s revenue fell 37% yearly to \u20b9 3,124 crores in Q3FY23. However, the margin expanded during the period, with Earnings Before Interest and Tax (EBIT) rising by 32.6% to \u20b9391 crores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To reduce the impact of governmental restrictions, I.T.C is now focusing on rapidly scaling up its value-added product portfolio across multiple crop value chains, including millets. The revenue will likely grow in the coming quarters. The manufacturing facility at Mysuru for the export of Nicotine and its derivatives to the US and Europe is expected to be commissioned shortly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">ITC Share Price Target Future Growth Potential<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>After years of flat growth, I.T.C is witnessing a significant turnaround in business with volume-led growth.
