Our read
Shoppers Stop is likely to post revenue growth near 7%, slower than Q1, as the 15% rally tests margins.
For operators
Shoppers Stop is expected to post Q2 FY27 revenue of ₹1,260 crore, up around 7% against 11.22% in Q1, with a 39% gross margin, so department-store peers should watch whether growth is slowing even as it opens stores like Q1's eight, two of them INTUNE.
Watch
Q2 revenue above the ₹1,260 crore HDFC Securities expects, in the 16 October results, would mean the 15% run-up is backed by demand, not positioning.
