The counter-case
The case against this reading — not reported by the source.
Margin expansion masks anemic 3.7% topline growth—well below premium spirits peers and India's nominal GDP. Profit beat is driven by cost control and one-offs, not volume momentum. With Diageo globally guiding cautious and tequila/scotch demand softening, USL's premiumization runway may be hitting a price-elasticity ceiling as state excise hikes pressure consumers.
