Eveready Industries (India) market leader of dry cell batteries has hiked prices of its full range of pencil size batteries. The company said that continuous rise in the cost of raw materials and overhead expenses had impacted the cost of batteries adversely. The company was forced to pass on part of the impact to the market. Realization will be increased between 5% and 10% from May, 2013 by increasing the MRP of economy pencil size batteries by Rs 5 per strip of 10 batteries and by rationalizing trades margins.
Eveready is a market leader in the dry cell batteries business, selling more than 1.2 billion units annually. It also sells over 25 million units of flashlights in addition to other products.
