Market and Operational Developments
Management detailed several key factors influencing the recent performance and future outlook.Strategic Shifts and Market Resilience:
The company noted a paradigm shift in its operating strategies, driven by escalating gold and silver prices during FY 25-26. This led to:
- A significant increase in lightweight jewellery sales.
- Enhanced customer engagement through exchange gold offers, sometimes up to 50% on sales.
- Improved customer base penetration in low-value ticket segments, supported by the "Digi gold" scheme.
Impact of Price Increases and Duties:
The industry faced external pressures, including the Government of India increasing the import duty for gold and silver from 6% to 15% on May 13, 2026. Management anticipates that the steep rise in import duty may impact demand in the coming months. However, strong exchange sales—ranging from 50% to 60% of current sales—provided a buffer.
Inventory Gains and Working Capital:
The company achieved a notable realization on inventory, with both gold and silver combined resulting in Rs. 114 million in better realization.
Cash Flow Analysis
According to the statement of cash flows, the net cash generated from operating activities for the year was Rs. 32,234 million, indicating robust cash flow generation from core business operations.In summary, while external duties and market volatility are noted, the company successfully leveraged operational strategies and strong domestic demand to post significant revenue and profitability growth in FY 25-26.
