Financial Period Discussed: Q1 FY27 (Quarter ended June 30, 2026).
Key Financial & Operational Updates:
Revenue from Operations was INR 149 Crore, registering 8% year-on-year growth.
The quarter resulted in an EBITDA loss of INR 13 Crore and a net loss of INR 23 Crore.
The loss was primarily attributed to higher B2B product returns (~INR 50 Crore more than the previous year), which are expected to offset in subsequent quarters.
Volume Growth: Cotton volumes grew 23% YoY, Home Textiles grew 42% YoY, and Kids Wear grew 5% YoY.
Footwear sales increased 38% YoY.
Online sales grew 15% YoY, bolstered by partnerships with quick commerce platforms (Blinkit, Swiggy, Zepto).
The company is on track to open 40-45 new Exclusive Brand Outlets (EBOs) in FY27, with a focus on western and southern regions.
The company collaborated with Salesforce for digital transformation initiatives.
FY27 Guidance: Management expects low double-digit revenue growth for the full year and anticipates EBITDA margins could be ~100 basis points lower than FY26's ~18% due to input cost inflation.
Cash Position: The company has a strong cash balance of INR 305 Crores.
Solar Project: A 50 MW solar project with an investment of ~INR 150 Crores is in the land aggregation stage, with commissioning expected in 9-12 months.
Share Buyback: Management confirmed that a share buyback is "always under the Board's discussion" and will be communicated to stakeholders if planned.
