Titan delivered a strong Q2 FY24, driven by jewellery segment growth of 27% in consumer price terms, with Tanishq like-for-like growth at 22% and CaratLane at 10%. The quarter benefited from formalization tailwinds, market share gains, and a favorable studded mix. Management highlighted the acquisition of the remaining CaratLane stake, funded via INR 2,500 crore debentures at a blended rate of 7.74%. Diamond price corrections in solitaires may cause minor margin dilution over 6-8 months, but overall jewellery margin guidance remains 12%-13%. Risks include potential demand dampening from gold price volatility and uncertainty around lab-grown diamond disruption in India.
टाइटन कंपनी ने दूसरी तिमाही में शानदार प्रदर्शन किया। गहनों की बिक्री में 27% का उछाल आया। तनिष्क की दुकानों पर बिक्री 22% और कैरेटलेन पर 10% बढ़ी। कंपनी को छोटे ज्वैलर्स से ग्राहकों के आने और बाजार में हिस्सेदारी बढ़ने का फायदा मिला। उन्होंने कैरेटलेन के बाकी हिस्से को 2,500 करोड़ रुपये के कर्ज से खरीदा, जिस पर 7.74% ब्याज देना होगा। हीरे की कीमतों में गिरावट से अगले 6-8 महीने मुनाफा थोड़ा कम हो सकता है, लेकिन गहनों पर मुनाफा 12-13% रहने का अनुमान है। सोने के दामों में उतार-चढ़ाव और लैब में बने हीरे से मांग पर असर पड़ सकता है।
