The Indian QSR industry has grown at a CAGR of 3% in the last five years to US$40 billion (bn) in 2020. Further, it is likely to grow at a higher rate of ~10% to become ~US$65 bn industry by 2025. Rapid growth in QSR will be aided by increased urbanisation supported by a younger population with rising income levels and excess disposable income. Also, QSR is expected to experience a rise in number of transactions and average transaction amount due to the short service time at an affordable price offered by QSR.

DIL would be able to capture the growth owing to metro lifestyle and outside food habits. This, coupled with the company's cost rationalization initiatives will help drive profitability in future.

Kotak Mahindra Capital Company Ltd, CLSA India Pvt Ltd, Edelweiss Financial Services Ltd, Motilal Oswal Investment Advisors Ltd are the BRLMs to the Offer.
