  • Over 400 products

What to watch

  • Net additions in retail touchpoints and beauty counters, especially in non-metro cities.
  • Revenue growth relative to the stated FY26 base of about Rs 100 crore.
  • Same-store sales and sales per counter, rather than only gross outlet additions.
  • Gross margin and marketing/trade-spend trends during expansion.
  • Marketplace and quick-commerce discount frequency, price parity and product availability.
  • Distributor receivables, inventory days, stock-outs and retailer reorder rates.
  • Evidence of repeat purchase in Tier II/III cohorts and regional contribution to online sales.
  • Add regional distributors and sub-distributors in priority Tier II/III clusters rather than pursuing a uniform national rollout.
  • Use beauty counters as education and sampling hubs for hero SKUs, with local-language merchandising and trained advisors.
  • Segment assortment and pack sizes by channel to limit direct price comparison between offline retail, marketplaces and quick-commerce.
  • Link quick-commerce availability to nearby counter and retail catchments, using rapid delivery to convert post-trial replenishment.
  • Track sell-through, repeat rates, stock-outs, returns and promotion dependency city by city before adding touchpoints.
  • Invest in regional creator, bridal, college and occasion-led campaigns to build demand ahead of distribution expansion.
