Financial Snapshot
| Period | Revenue from Operations | EBITDA | PAT | PAT Margin |
| FY23 | 24.91 | 2.27 | 1.34 | 5.4% |
| FY24 | 217.32 | 12.87 | 8.17 | 3.8% |
| FY25 | 351.28 | 38.57 | 23.26 | 6.6% |
| FY26 | 538.74 | 82.94 | 51.80 | 9.6% |
| Q1 FY27 (Jun 2026) | 101.44 | 23.42 | 15.02 | 14.8% |
FY26 revenue rose 53.4% to ₹538.7 crore and PAT more than doubled to ₹51.8 crore. EBITDA more than doubled in FY26 from ₹38.57 crore to ₹82.94 crore, taking PAT margin from 6.6% to 9.6%. The Q1 FY27 PAT margin of 14.8% looks very high against 9.6% for FY26, and Q1 revenue (₹101.44 crore) is below the FY26 quarterly average of about ₹135 crore.
Company Strengths
- RoNW of 30.83%, higher than all four listed peers in the RHP comparison.
- Fast growth: FY26 revenue up 53.4% and PAT more than doubled.
- Wide range of 19,442+ SKUs across 11 collections, all BIS Hallmark-certified.
- Cluster-based showroom expansion strategy in Mumbai and Ahmedabad.
- ₹30 crore debt repayment supports deleveraging.
- Operating cash flow turned positive at ₹15.40 crore in FY26.
Key Risks & Challenges
- Gujarat and single-store concentration: Gujarat gave 67.97% of FY26 revenue, and the CG Road, Ahmedabad store alone gave 57.16%.
- Inventory-heavy model: The company has a history of negative operating cash flows and high working capital needs. Inventory was 85.8% of total assets at December 2025, with a holding period of 205 days in 9M FY26.
- Proceeds mainly buy stock: The ₹152.84 crore showroom allocation is for inventory costs.
- Third-party sourcing: The company relies on third-party manufacturers with no long-term contracts.
- Gold price volatility: Profitability is vulnerable to gold and diamond price swings. Higher gold prices can raise transaction values without a matching rise in jewellery volumes.
- Short history in current form: The business was run as a proprietorship until March 2025, so historical numbers are not like-for-like.
- Margin sustainability and seasonality: Revenue is influenced by seasonal trends. Quarterly margin improvement may not persist.
- DRHP-era compliance flags: The DRHP flagged delays in TDS and GST payments, no fire NOCs for showrooms, and designs not registered under the Designs Act. I could not confirm whether these were resolved in the RHP.
