Material changes Decisio believes require attention.

Sort

criticalMaharashtra

Maharashtra growth slowdown

What changed: Growth slowed from +11.8% to +4.8%.
Why it matters: Maharashtra contributed +15.7% of incremental revenue in the latest month. A slowdown of this scale changes the company's growth math.
Evidence: +4.8%

What Decisio recommendsInvestigate distribution quality and realization before adding spend.

criticalPremium packs

What changed: Premium packs are growing 2.1x the portfolio but remain under-distributed relative to their revenue contribution.
Why it matters: Demand is already proving itself. The constraint is availability in two large states, not consumer appetite.
Evidence: 0

What Decisio recommendsReallocate premium packs into high-velocity white space before adding new SKUs.

highKarnataka

What changed: Distribution rose +10.0% while rate of sale moved −1.4%.
Why it matters: The company is paying for reach that is not converting into offtake. Width without productivity dilutes the route-to-market.
Evidence: 252 L

What Decisio recommendsHold further outlet expansion until productivity recovers on the existing base.

highEnergy Drinks

What changed: Energy category value grew +48.4% while NOVA share moved from +29.0% to +22.0%.
Why it matters: A growing category where the company is under-growing is a right-to-win problem, not a demand problem.
Evidence: +22.0%

What Decisio recommendsBuild Pulse where rate of sale is already high before buying share with discounting.

highTelangana

What changed: Telangana rate of sale is +54.4% versus the company, but distribution is only +4.3% of billed points against +6.4% of revenue.
Why it matters: The constraint is width, not willingness. Filling Telangana is a higher-quality expansion than adding empty reach in Karnataka.
Evidence: 0

What Decisio recommendsReallocate coverage hours from low-ROS Karnataka additions into Telangana white space.

highGeneral Trade

What changed: GT realization moved −4.4% while volume moved +2.1%.
Why it matters: The largest channel is giving away value. Volume is not the constraint — net price and mix are.
Evidence: ₹42.6

What Decisio recommendsCorrect realization leaks before adding promotional spend.

highTop 3 SKUs

What changed: The top three SKUs now represent 30.1% of monthly revenue, up from 28.7%.
Why it matters: Growth is concentrating in fewer packs. That raises execution risk if any of those SKUs stall.
Evidence: +30.1%

What Decisio recommendsProtect the core two SKUs while widening the next growth layer.

mediumE-commerce

What changed: E-commerce is growing +13.4% but remains only +6.9% of the company.
Why it matters: The channel is working, but it is still too small to matter in a ₹5,500 Cr beverage business.
Evidence: +6.9%

What Decisio recommendsBuild a focused online assortment rather than mirroring the full GT book.
