Fiscal Year 2025
-
Q4 FY25 saw 21% revenue growth, with strong diamond jewelry performance and improved EBITDA margin. Inventory and debt rose mainly due to gold price increases, while the company targets 18%-20% growth and 6.8%-7.2% EBITDA margin for FY26.

Q2 and H1 FY25 delivered strong revenue and profit growth, driven by festive and wedding demand, a surge in old gold exchange, and robust franchisee performance. Despite a one-time customs duty impact, margins remain healthy, and expansion plans are supported by a planned QIP.
