What explains the 900 bps sequential margin expansion excluding inventory gain?

So if you look at between Q3 and Q2 Q2 revenue was 513 crores and Q3 revenue is 748 crores. So for that incremental revenue ... our aggregate cost base ... don't shift significantly ... So this is the foundational operating leverage ...

What is the typical Q3 monthly sale percentage above annual average?

depending on how the operating revenue moves between quarters, I think that percentages change drastically. ... if that continues full year would land somewhere between 620 to sorry uh this Q4 will land somewhere between 620 to 630 crores ...

Is the margin expansion partly due to lower entry price point sales?

in our data we don't see that it's not that let's say sub 20,000 or sub 30,000 product are have lower gross margins or lower contribution margins ... so there's no implication of that.

What is the annual store addition guidance for this year and next?

this year I think we will be in that 65-70 kind of range ... I think next year we'll come back to you once we finish this year. ... when we discuss Q4 is when we can give you better color.

Why is our growth lower than peers despite strong industry?

very different operating environment ... gold volatile ... increases demand for commodity products like gold coins ... we are extremely underindexed on those ... almost all the jewelers report primary sales whereas we only report retail sales ... merchandising issue ...

What are the plans for lab-grown diamond brand Ethereal?

very early days for lab grown ... they have very few stores ... it's kind of a discovery phase ... we'll have to observe how it evolves and then take a firm opinion.

Why did other expenses (ex-A&P) decline by 11 cr in absolute terms?

that is primarily driven by our improvement in contribution margins. ... on the manufacturing scale and efficiencies ... as they build process efficiency ... there is that operating leverage that flows through on the direct cost.

What is the expected A&P expense run rate going forward?

we would like to keep it kind of pegged at around 6% go forward.

What was revenue per square foot this quarter and last year same quarter?

the metric that we look at ... is revenue productivity per store per month by cohort. ... from a per square feet basis ... it really doesn't ... is something that we don't track and look at.

Sanitya · Unicorn Assets

evasive

If gold prices rise 33%, does most of that flow through to EBITDA?

the simple point ... is that there are 323 stores and the cost base ... is already embedded. So incremental revenue ... has a very high operating leverage ... it's not about just gold price ... it is about how fundamentally our business operating model is structured.

Karan Gupta · ACMIL

direct

What margins can we achieve when most stores age to 14 cr annual revenue?

at 10 to 12 crore kind of productivity the store level pre-index margins are at about 22 to 24%. ... as broader cohort productivity gets to that 10-11 cr number the baseline margin for the business is going to be in low teens at the minimum.

Are you reducing store opening guidance from 75-80 to 65-70?

No we were in the 70 kind of handle and I think we should be broadly in that territory. I don't think there's a significant deviation ... maybe the upper end ... we'll be in the 70 kind of handle ... plus minus 5.
