New Delhi, May 12 (SocialNews.XYZ) Shares of Relaxo Footwears declined over 5 per cent after the company reported weak operational performance in Q4FY22.
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) margins of the company declined 596 basis points to 15.9 per cent from 21.8 per cent. It was due to a steep increase in input costs.

The company's margins were affected by the dual impact of substantial increase in raw material prices and normalisation of selling, marketing and admin expenses in FY22 in comparison to FY21 being the pandemic year, it said after the announcement of the quarterly results.
