Bata India gets ₹60 crore sales tax notice

New Delhi, July 13 () Footwear major Bata India Ltd on Monday said it is going slow on new store openings in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic but will continue expanding into new towns through franchise route. Disclosing the impact of COVID-19 in a regulatory filing, Bata India said after the relaxation of lockdown it has so far reopened more than 1,200 of its 1,400 stores across the country but restrictions are in place on number of days and hours of operations. "All our office establishments, manufacturing plants and warehouses have started operations as per the respective state guidelines," the filing said. Bata India's revenue from operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 stood at Rs 619.70 crore, down by 9 per cent as compared to the corresponding period previous year "primarily due to suspension of the company's stores towards second half for the month of March 2020 as per government directives for COVID- 19". On its ability to maintain operations, the company said: "As we went into the Covid-19 scenario with stock in our hand, that stock is there and the requirement for the factories to produce is only limited." Commenting on the estimation of the future impact of the health crisis, the company said: "While the pandemic will have an impact on consumer behaviour and demand, we believe brands such as Bata are strong trust marks and with the investment in our quality over the years and safety in stores to build confidence, we will gain share as consumers tend to avoid risk post the crisis." It further said: "The company is going slow on new store openings but will continue expanding into newer towns via the franchise route." Strengthening its digital channel, Bata India said it has "also increased its focus on e-commerce channels and its own website as well. Additionally, we are using services like WhatsApp to stay in touch with consumers and enable omni-channel sales." The company said it is "recalibrating business operations with a strengthened product portfolio, a steady focus on cash conservation in the company and better online presence and services to ensure seamless shopping experiences for our consumers". It is working on various cost-optimisation measures, including rentals renegotiation, closure of unviable stores and digitalisation drive across the organisation to eliminate redundancies and bring efficiency in the value chain, Bata India added.

Going slow on new store openings, will continue expanding into newer towns: Bata India on COVID-19

New Delhi, Feb 6 () Leading footwear brand Bata India on Thursday reported a 14.75 per cent rise in its consolidated net profit to Rs 118.26 crore for the quarter ended December 2019 compared to Rs 103.05 crore in the year-ago period. Consolidated revenue from operations of the company stood at Rs 830.82 crore for the quarter under consideration against Rs 779.79 crore for the same period year ago, Bata India said in a filing to BSE. "Despite market headwinds and a pan-India cross-sectoral drop in consumer spending, Bata managed stable growth in Q3 2019-2020, improving its margins and EBIDTA," Bata India CEO Sandeep Kataria said. These results were due to company's continued focus on customer-centric portfolio including the new sneakers range, innovations in areas of comfort, design and materials, channel expansion in distribution business, modern trade and franchisee business, he added. "While new stores, renovations continued to elevate the store visual merchandising and consumer experience, we also focused on making operations more agile by investing in IT for the new age," Kataria said. Shares of Bata India closed at Rs 1,853.25 on BSE, down 0.99 per cent from the previous close. AKT MRMR

The company has tied up with the shoe company Bata Heritage to come up with a new collection of shoes which literally has Coca Cola prints on a shoe! Calling it the “iconic capsule collection” the companies have come together to bring back the Bata Tennis and Hotshot shoes that were a big hit in the 1930s. Coca Cola is not new to the apparel and footwear industry. Coca Cola had partnered with apparel brand Kith to launch a line of accessories and clothing, and have gone on to launch three different collections. The beverage company has a long legacy of making its mark in the lifestyle of its consumers. And of course it makes for great marketing. But with the shoe’s price being ₹4,000 and above, will it really work with the Indian millennial?

In today’s bizarre trend: Coca Cola prints on your Bata shoe

New Delhi, Nov 26 () Footwear maker Bata will continue its growth journey in India with the multi-retail channel approach along with e-commerce platform to reach out to as many customers as it can, said a top company official.
 The company, which has a retail network in 450 towns, is further expanding by adding new stores in smaller towns through franchise route.
 "Now we are using all three engines - our own stores, franchise partner store, which is a big drive for us in tier III &amp; IV, and multibrand outlets. On the top it would be our e-commerce channels, whether through bata.in or other marketplaces to get as many consumers as we can," Bata India CEO Sandeep Kataria told .
 The company last month said it will strengthen its presence by adding 500 stores in next five years, focusing mainly on small markets as it has identified tier II, III and IV cities where it has plans to broaden its sales network through the franchise model.
 "What has happened over time, that the brand image and the brand name was much bigger than our reach, as we were selling through our retail stores only in 450 towns," he said.
 "India is much bigger and the brand image is also bigger. So we decided to expand our reach to as many Indians and take advantage of our equities."
 According to Kataria, online channels are providing opportunities in multiple ways to reach consumers.
 "We can actually use the digital channels to increase the productivity of our stores and enhance the satisfaction to our consumers," said Kataria on the sidelines of an event organised by the Retailers Association of India.
 Besides, Bata is working hard to reconnect with the country's millennials.
 "We have a whole battery of brands in Bata as North Star, Bata Red Label, Marie Claire and Footin which talk to millenials. We do not have to mainly rely on Bata, the main brand," he said.
 "We are seeing the average age of the customers in Bata store going down. We have now more millennials than the past," he said.
 When asked whether Bata has any plans to introduce new brands from its global fold, he said the company is not very keen to do that.
 "There is a huge opportunity for us to play with the brands which we have here. So we are not very keen to bring a new brand," he said adding that the company has licence for manufacture and sale of several global brands as Hush Puppies, Naturalizer.
 Besides, the company has introduced outdoor brand shoes from Caterpillar in its top selected outlets this season. KRH KRH ANU

She only knew one language but language was never a problem when it came to this show. I would come back from my school, keep my bag aside and just sit glued to the television for another 30 minutes in my uniform. This iconic cartoon show has managed to cut across age groups and language barriers. We would watch it on repeat, even though we always knew that Jerry, the mouse, would get away with his shenanigans and fool Tom. Jerry, a true trickster, delights in setting Tom up to bear the consequences of chaos caused by him, often with a wink at the audience to let them know they’re in on the joke too. Even today, the 82-year-old duo Tom and Jerry connects with its viewers on an emotional level and reaches out to the inner child in us that lived in a happier universe. Last year, when the COVID cases plummeted and the theatres were open during the festive season, ‘Tom &amp; Jerry: The Movie’ was released in India after a lot of contemplation. However, it outperformed at the box office, grossing nearly Rs 8 crore in terms of ticket sales, and was amongst the top-performing Hollywood family film/animation film in India in 2021. It was released across 1,000 screens in English, Hindi, Tamil and Telugu. It was only in 1995 that the channel Cartoon Network made its entry in India with dual feed. Cartoon Network operated from 5:30 am to 5:30 pm and Turner Classic Movies took up the remaining schedule. Soon after the launch, Cartoon Network started airing Tom and Jerry amongst other international shows, and the rest, as they say, is history. In 2001, Cartoon Network became a separate 24-hour channel and the show Tom and Jerry became an inseparable part of its legacy. As this iconic duo turns 82 today, we caught up with Cartoon Network's Abhishek Dutta to talk about its evolution in India, how the network has benefitted from this property over the years and what today’s kids expect from their cartoon shows. <div type="Video" msid="89457743" hostid="261" title="How the iconic Cartoon Network duo Tom and Jerry has managed to stay relevant over the years" dataSource="BUSINESSINSIDER" thumbUrl="https://denmark.timesinternet.in/cmslite/api/app/images.jpg?msid=89457743"></div> The secret behind keeping an iconic cartoon show relevant for today’s audience Today, kids have plenty of choices when it comes to content consumption. Dutta said that it is important to explore imaginary worlds that could also be a window to real-life examples, to stay relevant. So what makes Tom and Jerry relevant today? Dutta said, “So, for kids, the shows that they see on television, are basically an escape from the real world. This is where they come to have some enjoyment and fun. So over a period of years, Tom and Jerry has evolved to incorporate everything in our environment or whatever changes we have seen outside. Tom and Jerry, as characters, have seen so many setups; we have seen a lot of episodes in the house that they stay in, but even beyond that -- they have gone into space, they have gone into multiple outings. And this evolution of Tom &amp; Jerry with the time has actually kept the audience open throughout its history and that's how it maintains its popularity even today. Apart from this, even on our consumer products front, there are more than 1000 SKUs of Tom and Jerry consumer products in India across different categories.” Keeping pace with this evolution in the landscape, content creators and kids’ entertainment broadcasters are developing concepts, characters and themes that echo with local audiences while retaining their global appeal. So, to stay ahead of the curve, Cartoon Network gave a glocal twist to Tom and Jerry two years ago. “In 2020, we did something different with the show and added a commentary to Tom and Jerry. The reason for adding this commentary was that children have a very short attention span. So if they miss anything while viewing the show, that commentary keeps them hooked to it. And that did amazingly well for us. In fact, the first week that we relaunched the show with the commentary, it became the number one show in the category. Even today, Tom &amp; Jerry contributes substantially to our Cartoon Network channel and is loved by millions of our fans on the network,” shared Dutta. The show is dubbed in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu today. To up its glocal game, Cartoon Network is also bringing a new series ‘Tom and Jerry in New York’ to India during the summer holidays. Telling us how Tom and Jerry cuts across different age groups, Vikram Sharma, Head of Consumer Products, Advertising &amp; Partnerships, WarnerMedia India, Southeast Asia and Korea, said, “A testament to the widespread admiration of Tom and Jerry is that it remains the most popular Kids Consumer Products animation IP for WarnerMedia. Young and adult fans of the franchise in India have more than 1,000 SKUs of Tom and Jerry consumer products to love and own. The sheer diversity of the products available, spread across verticals such as fashion, accessories, toys, collectibles, puzzles, and stationery, proves the global phenomena that the characters are. In India alone, there are several key partnerships including Reliance Retail, Myntra, Flipkart, TheSouledStore.com, Bewakoof.com, Campus Footwear, Funskool, Bata (Pak), Hamilton, amongst others, that offer Tom and Jerry collection, reinforcing the IP’s fan-following.” To celebrate this lovable slapstick comedy’s anniversary, Cartoon Network India is airing new episodes of ‘Tom and Jerry Tales’ this week from 10:30 am onwards. The show is co-powered by Complan and Alpenliebe Gold and has onboarded Policy Bazaar and Parle Milk Shakti as associate sponsors. To add to this week-long extravaganza, Cartoon Network has also planned on-ground promotions and fan engagement in Pune and Mumbai malls.
