Revenue from operations stood at Rs 616.65 crore during the quarter under review as against Rs 699.48 crore in the year-ago period.

Share of non-food sale has been gradually recovering and has reached 70 percent of pre-pandemic levels, he said.

“We continue to remain focused on our core strategy. We are continuously working to strengthen ourselves as a true Omnichannel retailer,” Goenka said.
“Spencer’s will have a strong presence in providing experiential retailing with a wide range of assortment, trusted quality and a strong focus on differentiated offering (including fresh products, imported & gourmet food and gifting) which can cater to evolving customer requirements,” he added.
