From Poojas to Dandiya Nights: Kushal’s fashion & silver jewellery Introduces its Festive Navratri Edit
As India prepares to welcome the vibrant festival of Navratri, Kushal’s Fashion and silver Jewellery unveils a festive collection that beautifully captures the energy and joy of the nine nights. With designs ranging from oxidised silver chaandbalis, kundan jewellery to 92.5 pure silver necklaces and richly embellished chokers, the collection brings together traditional artistry with contemporary versatility, making it the perfect choice for both rituals and revelry.




Navratri, one of India’s most cherished festivals, is a time of devotion, dance, colour, and community. From energetic garba and dandiya nights to temple rituals and family gatherings, jewellery plays a central role in enhancing festive attire. Kushal’s latest Navratri collection honours these traditions with intricate detailing, bold motifs, and versatile designs that complement lehenga cholis, silk sarees, kurtas, and modern Indo-fusion ensembles alike.




The collection highlights intricate kundan sets with floral and beaded detailing, statement chaandbalis with ruby-inspired accents, and versatile cuffs and bracelets that bring a contemporary twist to traditional festive looks. Equally eye-catching are the elegant 92.5 pure silver necklaces with carved stone motifs, crafted for traditional puja and family occasions. Adding to the festive grandeur are pearl-layered chokers and statement sets in vibrant green stones, designed to elevate lehengas, anarkalis, and richly embroidered ghagras for high-energy dance nights.



The Navratri Collection is curated with styling versatility at its heart, offering jewellery that transitions effortlessly across occasions. Pure silver necklaces pair beautifully with vibrant silk sarees and embroidered kurtas for rituals and temple visits. Layered chokers with pearls and bangles bring glamour to lehenga cholis and anarkalis for garba and dandiya, while oxidised chaandbalis and cuffs add a bold charm to Indo-fusion looks such as crop tops with skirts or boho-inspired kurtis. Each piece allows women to express their personal style while staying rooted in festive tradition.
With its thoughtful mix of elegance and statement-making appeal, Kushal’s Fashion & Silver Navratri Collection celebrates the richness of Indian craftsmanship and the joy of the festive season. These are designs to be treasured, versatile enough to shine across traditional occasions and contemporary celebrations alike. The collection starts at INR 1,690.

Kalyan Jewellers to expand in non-South markets via franchise model
Kalyan Jewellers said it will accelerate the rollout of franchise-owned company-operated (FOCO) showrooms to drive expansion in India and overseas. Nearly half its revenue now comes from franchised stores, and most new openings in FY26 will follow the capital-light FOCO model as the company focuses on improving returns and reducing debt.
Thrissur-based jewellery retailer Kalyan Jewellers plans to sharpen its focus on franchise-owned company-operated (FOCO) showrooms as it scales both in India and overseas, according to its Q2FY26 earnings investor presentation. The jeweller said future incremental expansion will be driven largely through capital-light franchise formats, aimed at improving returns and reducing balance sheet leverage.
The company, which has 174 FOCO showrooms in India as of September 30, 2025, has signed letter of intents (LOIs) for 89 new FOCO outlets to be opened in FY26. Its digital-first brand Candere will also expand primarily through the FOCO route, with 54 such showrooms already in place. Internationally, Kalyan said calibrated expansion in the Middle East and entry into the US market will similarly rely on franchise-led stores.
The shift is part of a broader strategy towards capital-efficient growth. The company aims to use 40-50% of profits to repay debt and invest in shareholder returns. Since April 2023, Kalyan has repaid Rs 6,461 crore in working capital loans in India and declared a dividend payout of over 20% for FY25.
The jeweller reported about 31% revenue growth in Q2FY26, supported by 16% same-store sales growth and continued strong new customer additions, which accounted for over 38% of sales. Nearly 49% of quarterly revenue came from franchised showrooms. Margin gains were driven by improved procurement efficiencies and operating leverage.
