Q1 FY27: ₹35.40 Cr revenue, ₹8.19 Cr PAT (vs Q1 FY26: ₹25.78 Cr). Growth rates confirmed from stated comparators.

₹8.19 Cr PAT / ₹35.40 Cr revenue = 23.1% margin. Stated NPM matches.

Management confirmed debt repayment from IPO proceeds and ₹52–57 Cr undeployed capital held strategically.

Management stated these exact proportions; bridal demand cited as driver.

Management confirmed BOQ ₹24–25 Cr (land pre-acquired, building ready, interiors in progress). Interior delays due to rains; Nov target stated but qualified as 'trying to get done'.

Now 22% of Q1 revenue (vs ~0% pre-IPO). Target 40–50%; signals shift from B2B wholesale to DTC.

IPO proceeds used to pay down loans; company now debt-free. ₹52–57 Cr capital buffer for expansion.

Promised finalization 'within a month'; protocols pending. Q1 showed no franchise store operational data yet.

Debt paid immediately. Balance ₹52–57 Cr held for working capital and expansion, deployed strategically as demand grows.

Approximately ₹24–25 Cr including land (pre-acquired), building (ready), interiors (in progress). Targeting Nov 2026 opening.

Most pieces sold ready-made. Customization rare; ready-stock preferred because clear guidance for buyers. Statistics not tracked monthly.

Cannot isolate one store; acts as hub/inventory rotation for all stores/franchises. DRHP projections are 'minimalist'. Comparisons to QoQ results show difference in business model.

End-to-end manufacturing, 105-year heritage, fourth-generation experience (MD 28 years), innovation, trendsetters. Procurement & aesthetic design are core.

US is bigger market. Exploring all three. Working on exhibitions/partners. Awareness needed. UK art-lovers targeted with exclusive pieces.

Model in draft; working with franchise agency. Protocols not yet published; promised within one month. Cannot rush given polki category complexity.

78% B2B, 22% B2C; both tied to bridals. Good bridal season expected.

Yes, few nice new artisans joined. Investing in skills; training families/daughters for ecosystem building.

B2B was never a challenge. B2C requires luxury boutique store positioning (like Bvlgari/Cartier), better interiors, brand ambassador. Quality control is core. Working capital managed strategically by Marwari discipline.

Like good designer houses, if design doesn't work, we change it quickly (easy with organized plant). Not locked into unsellable inventory.

Dream to be India's most preferred luxury brand, go international. RVCF backing shows investor confidence in vision. No specific FY27/FY28 guidance; 'numbers will go up.' First quarter very strong; IPO roadshows showed Gen Z interest.

Management committed to growth ('numbers will go up') and strong Q1 as proof point, but no quantified FY27/FY28 revenue guidance or CAGR.

Management confident in maintaining margins but did not quantify EBITDA/PAT margin range for FY27/FY28. B2C expansion may pressure margins if mix shifts.

Timing slipping due to rains. Boutique stores: ₹5 Cr per store (excluding inventory). Franchise inventory: ₹6–8 Cr per store (franchise-funded).

Metro cities = company-owned; Tier 2/smaller = franchise. No store count target or capex envelope for FY27 stated.

B2C currently 22% of revenue, targeting 40–50%. Requires new expertise (retail ops, brand marketing, DTC channels). No track record of scaled B2C. Luxury store positioning (Bvlgari/Cartier model) is expensive; capex per store ₹5 Cr + ₹5 Cr inventory.

Franchise model 'not even inviting franchises till ready.' Protocols promised 'within a month' but not yet published. Polki jewelry complexity cited as reason for caution (different regional preferences, quality control, capital intensity ₹6–8 Cr per store). Delay in model finalization = delay in Tier 2/3 expansion.

₹24–25 Cr flagship store targeted Nov 2026 opening. Already slipping due to rains in Jaipur. No contingency timeline given. Flagship is anchor for hub-and-spoke model (feeds other stores with inventory rotation); delay impacts B2C expansion cadence.

Management stated 'numbers will go up' and cited strong Q1 (+37% YoY) but gave no FY27/FY28 revenue, margin, or capex guidance. DRHP projections mentioned as baseline, but investor expectations may diverge if Q2 softens or execution delays.

Core moat is 'organized manufacturing' with skilled artisans. Training families/daughters is good-faith DEI, but no wage rates, headcount, or productivity metrics shared. Risk: wage inflation if competing brands also ramp artisan hiring.
