Neville Noronha, CEO & Managing Director, Avenue Supermarts Limited, said: “Our revenue grew by 18% in this quarter over the corresponding quarter of last year. Overall gross margins are lower compared to the same period in the previous year, primarily due to lower sales contribution of apparel and general merchandise.
