Jewellery Business: Festive Demand Drives Strong Growth
The jewellery portfolio delivered a robust growth of around 41 percent year-on-year during the quarter, supported by vibrant festive and wedding-season demand. Revenue growth was led by higher average selling prices, which helped offset relatively flat buyer growth in a high gold price environment.Gold coins nearly doubled in sales compared with the same period last year, reinforcing their appeal as an investment product. The plain gold jewellery category recorded strong growth in the high-thirties, reflecting consumer preference for design-led and premium offerings. Studded jewellery posted its strongest performance of FY26 so far, registering healthy double-digit growth in the mid-twenties, aided by improved buyer traction.
Like-to-like growth across all jewellery retail formats remained in the low-thirties, indicating broad-based demand momentum.
Towards the end of the quarter, Titan expanded its portfolio with the launch of beYon, a lab-grown diamond jewellery brand. The new brand is positioned to cater to evolving consumer preferences for affordable, everyday diamond jewellery, while natural diamond offerings under Tanishq, Mia, Zoya, and CaratLane continue to anchor milestone-driven purchases.
