India’s leading organised jewellery retailers,<\/em> Titan Company, Kalyan Jewellers and P N Gadgil Jewellers (PNG), have delivered a robust start to FY27, demonstrating resilient consumer demand and continued market share gains despite record-high gold prices, as strong same-store sales, rapid expansion and premiumisation offset pricing pressures.<\/em><\/p>\n

India\u2019s leading organised jewellery retailers have started FY27 on a strong note, signalling continued consumer demand despite record-high gold prices and intermittent softness during the quarter. Quarterly business updates from Kalyan Jewellers and P N Gadgil Jewellers (PNG), alongside Titan Co.\u2019s performance in the comparable period last year, indicate that established brands continue to gain market share through robust same-store sales, aggressive showroom expansion, and a growing preference for branded jewellery.<\/p>\n

Kalyan Jewellers reported consolidated revenue growth of approximately 38% in Q1 FY27, driven by equally strong growth in its India business despite the 28-day Adhik Maas<\/em> period, which traditionally dampens wedding-related jewellery purchases. The company recorded same-store sales growth of around 28%, reflecting sustained consumer demand across key markets.<\/p>\n

P N Gadgil Jewellers outpaced the sector with 41% year-on-year revenue growth during the quarter. Its retail business expanded 56%, supported by exceptional same-store sales growth of 46%, suggesting that existing stores, rather than new additions, were the primary engine of growth. Retail now contributes approximately 78% of the company\u2019s revenue, while franchise and e-commerce businesses also posted healthy growth.<\/p>\n

The updates indicate that organised retailers are successfully navigating elevated gold prices by adapting product offerings to evolving consumer preferences. PNG reported improving sales of studded jewellery, with its retail stud ratio increasing to 10.9%, while newer stores in North and Central India are already recording even higher studded jewellery penetration than its traditional Maharashtra and Goa markets. The company also highlighted a normalisation in bullion sales, leading to a healthier revenue mix.<\/p>\n

Titan’s jewellery business continued its steady growth trajectory despite gold price volatility affecting consumer sentiment. Domestic jewellery operations grew around 18% YoY, with Akshaya Tritiya generating healthy demand before rising gold prices from May to mid-June softened purchases. Customers increasingly shifted towards lightweight and lower-karatage jewellery, while plain gold jewellery recorded growth in the mid-teens and the studded jewellery segment delivered early double-digit growth. Tanishq’s like-to-like domestic sales also grew in early double digits, driven by higher ticket sizes, while CaratLane posted healthy double-digit like-to-like growth.<\/p>\n

Retailers are also expanding their physical presence at an accelerated pace. During the quarter, Kalyan Jewellers opened 12 new Kalyan showrooms and five Candere outlets, taking its global network to 524 stores across India, the Middle East, the US and the UK. PNG ended the quarter with 78 stores and remains on track to open around 25 new outlets during FY27, targeting a network of approximately 103 stores by the end of the financial year through a franchise-led expansion strategy across Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Central India and the National Capital Region. Titan added 19 net jewellery stores during the quarter, including three Tanishq, seven Mia and nine CaratLane outlets.<\/p>\n

Digital channels also continue to gain momentum. Kalyan\u2019s digital-first brand Candere recorded revenue growth of approximately 112% during the quarter, underscoring growing consumer acceptance of omnichannel jewellery retailing.<\/p>\n

One notable trend emerging during the quarter is the increasing adoption of recycled gold. Kalyan\u2019s “Shine with India” gold recirculation campaign resulted in recycled gold accounting for more than 46% of revenue during Q1 FY27, rising to over 55% in June alone. The initiative aims to reduce dependence on imported gold while encouraging customers to exchange existing jewellery.<\/p>\n

The updates collectively suggest that India\u2019s organised jewellery retailers continue to consolidate their position even in a high gold price environment. Strong same-store sales, premiumisation through studded jewellery, rapid showroom expansion, digital growth and initiatives to improve sourcing efficiency indicate that branded retailers remain well positioned ahead of the festive and wedding season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
