Bata India Approves VRS for Hosur Unit
Bata India, a shoe company, has decided to let some of its workers in Hosur, Tamil Nadu, choose to retire early if they want to.
This is called a voluntary retirement scheme.
The company hasn't said yet how much money this will cost or how many workers will take the offer.
The company's stock price went down a little, and it made less money last quarter compared to the same time last year.
The company thinks this plan will be good for both the workers and the company.
This is part of a bigger plan to make the company more efficient by closing some factories and keeping others open.
Bata India's board approved a voluntary retirement scheme for eligible workers at its Hosur unit.
The scheme's implementation details and financial impact will be disclosed later.
The company expects the scheme to benefit both employees and the organization.
Bata's shares closed at ₹925.30, down 1.14% from the day's opening.
The company reported a 73.26% decline in net profit and a 4.3% decline in revenue for Q2.
