GRM Overseas share price rose over 2% on Tuesday, April 21, after the company announced the launch of its “10X Basmati Rice Suitable for Diabetics.” The small-cap stock is currently trading just 11% below its 52-week high.
In a filing with the exchange, the firm announced that the product will be rolled out in major domestic and international markets, in line with its plan to broaden its portfolio of health-oriented offerings worldwide. This launch occurs in response to the escalating demand for healthier food choices, spurred by a rise in diabetes cases, urban living, and heightened health consciousness.
The new offering combines the aroma and quality of premium basmati rice with features aimed at improved glycaemic management, including low GI and high fibre content. The launch also supports GRM’s broader transition toward becoming a diversified, consumer-centric food company.
Atul Garg, Chairperson & Managing Director, said, “The introduction of 10X Basmati Rice suitable for Diabetics marks a significant milestone in GRM’s journey towards building a future-ready, health-focused food portfolio. As consumer preferences evolve globally, there is a clear shift towards foods that support better lifestyle choices without compromising on taste or quality.
This product is a direct response to that growing need and is our entry into the diabetic food market, which is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6-8% globally and approximately 10% in India in the next few years.”
GRM Overseas has transformed from a small rice processing and trading business into an expanding player in the consumer staples sector. Originally focused on exporting rice to the Middle East and the UK, the company has gradually broadened its international presence, now catering to markets in 42 countries and ranking among the top five rice exporters in India.
