During the quarter, DMart added 15 new stores.

General merchandise and apparel, covering footwear, home appliances, plastic goods, garments, toys, games, crockery and bed and bath items, made up 23.34 %.

Like‑for‑like (LFL) growth for the quarter stood at 9.5 %, up from 6.8 % in the year‑ago period, indicating stronger sales from stores that have been operational for at least 24 months.
