Domestic Business Performance
The domestic business grew 37% YoY, supported by the addition of 76 stores. Jewellery emerged as the key growth driver, recording a 39% increase, aided by festive and Akshaya Tritiya demand. Portfolio buyer growth came in at early double-digits, while average ticket sizes grew in high double-digits. Core categories of plain and studded jewellery grew in the mid-thirties, and coins continued their strong double-digit investment-led momentum.
Watches grew 23% YoY, led by analog watches which saw high-twenties growth due to continuing premiumization trends. However, the smartwatches business declined in low teens. The EyeCare division also posted 23% growth, driven by broad-based momentum across owned and international brands, supported by marketing investments promoting multi-pair and multi-category propositions.
