The counter-case
The case against this reading — not reported by the source.
A 26,000-sq-ft single-brand flagship is a high fixed-cost bet in a discretionary luxury market. The immersive format may generate press and appointment traffic without delivering sales density sufficient to justify premium Mehrauli real estate, staffing, inventory depth and ongoing experiential upkeep. Consolidating fashion, jewellery, accessories, art and craft also risks diluting category focus and tying more working capital to a narrow, ultra-affluent customer base.
