Kerala-based jewellery retailer Malabar Gold & Diamonds is preparing for a stock market debut, aiming to list the company in 2027-28, according to its founder and chairman M P Ahmmad.

“The work is in progress. We target to list in 2027-28 financial year,” Ahmmad indicated.
Malabar Gold currently operates 391 showrooms across India and internationally, with presence in 19 Indian states.
To retain customers amid rising gold prices, the company is developing new business strategies, according to O Asher, Managing Director for India operations.
