What the record says.
Khazanchi Jewellers delivered exceptional FY26 results with revenue growing 15.71% YoY to ₹251.02 crore and PAT surging 98.87% to ₹89.42 crore. The dramatic EBITDA growth of 95.69% YoY to ₹126.99 crore reflects successful premiumization strategy and improved product mix in both B2B and B2C segments. EBITDA margin expanded by 253 bps to 6.19%, demonstrating operating leverage. The newly launched 10,000 sq ft Chennai flagship showroom (opened ~2 months ago) is tracking ahead of expectations with a targeted revenue of ₹450-500 crore. Management reiterated 25-30% growth guidance for FY27 while planning retail contribution expansion from 10% to 25%. Key risks include potential short-term demand softness from PM Modi's request to pause gold purchases and gold price volatility, though management expressed confidence in recycling dynamics offsetting impact. Internal funding will support planned Tamil Nadu retail expansion.
Colored figures show movement against the previous available record.
Guidance to track
- Management reiterated its guided growth rate of 25-30% for FY27, noting it has historically delivered better than this range. The retail expansion is expected to provide additional boost to both top-line and bottom-line performance.
- The company targets increasing retail's share of total sales from current ~10% to 25% within the next two financial years. Retail margins are expected to be in the 10-12% range, significantly higher than wholesale.
- With higher-margin retail segment scaling up and premium Vajra diamond brand gaining traction, management expects PAT margins to continue improving beyond the current 4.36% level.
- Management stated that all current expansion plans including new retail store openings in Tamil Nadu will be funded through internal accruals. No equity or debt fundraising has been planned at this stage.
Risks flagged
- Prime Minister Modi urged citizens to stop gold purchases for a year to manage current account deficit. While management believes this will have only short-term impact (1-2 months), the cumulative effect of such messaging on consumer sentiment remains a concern.
- A 15-20% fall in gold prices could impact inventory values. The company holds approximately ₹400+ crore in inventory. Management claims hedge through buy-back arrangements and inventory management systems, but valuation impact on balance sheet remains a risk.
- Transitioning from a wholesale-dominated model (B2B constitutes ~90% of sales currently) to a higher retail mix carries execution risks including brand building costs, higher operating costs, and longer payback periods on retail investments. Management was repeatedly asked about this transition and responded that B2C is not new to the company.
- Frequent changes in gold import duties have been a feature of the industry. Management acknowledged that duty revisions occur during periods of CAD/trade deficit concerns. Recent increases in duties were cited as having short-term impact, but cumulative effect on competitive positioning vs. unorganized sector is a concern.
Key quotes
- We are very confident of growing at a pace of 25 to 30% which is at the constraint level what we are defining and we have a full confidence of achieving it better.
- In upcoming two financial years we'll be reaching at least 25% of the total sale as a retail contribution. In that we have a surely an higher margin bracket that is somewhere around 10 to 12%. So it is going to add up an additional bottom line improvement.
- Maybe for a shorter period of time say one or two months we have a clear idea about how things are operating on the recyclable household. In India no occasions is without gold. So obviously people have their own alternatives, their own resource, their own savings to invest in gold.
