A strong cadence of product launches backed by ramped up execution was the key to deliver the quarter," Whirlpool of India MD Sunil D'Souza said.
"Given the current global context, we do see the possibility of headwinds building up in some key commodities. However, with strong product plans in place, we remain confident of delivering strong results ahead," D'Souza added.
The company's board has recommended a final dividend of Rs 5 per equity share for 2018-19.
