- Home Appliances revenue increased by 11% in Q3 over the prior year and by 55 % over the immediately previous quarter

The Company posted a profit after tax of Rs 4.2 crores in Q3 2020 versus Rs. 4.1 crores in Q3 of the prior year.

Rajeev Bajaj, Managing Director, Singer India Limited commented; "The growth momentum in the post Covid recovery period has been satisfactory, despite various challenges including the steep increase in raw material prices and the supply related issues. The Zig Zag sewing machines supply has now resumed in January 2021 and the Company will aggressively target this market once again to make up for the shortfall in these sales in Q3 and Q2. Management is grateful to its employees and business associates for their tremendous support and assistance during this difficult time."
