  • Festive and wedding-season demand, including ticket size, studded-jewellery mix, and online-to-store conversion.
  • Competitive discounting and expansion by organised jewellery peers.
  • Accelerate store additions in high-density urban and tier-2 markets while prioritising local cluster economics over standalone footprint growth.
  • Increase inventory financing, gold-metal loan usage, and supply-chain discipline to support expansion without excessive working-capital strain.
  • Use the third profitable quarter to strengthen marketing around trust, certification, design-led collections, exchange offers, and omnichannel conversion.
  • Focus on improving new-store payback, same-store sales growth, EBITDA margin, and net-profit conversion ahead of the festive and wedding seasons.
