P N Gadgil Jewellers Limited – Quarterly Update Q1 FY27
Retail Business Surges On Strong Same-Store Sales Growth, While The Company Stays On Track To Open ~25 New Stores In FY27, Targeting A Network Of ~103 Outlets By Year-End.
Revenue Update
The Company delivered a strong performance in Q1 FY27, reporting robust revenue growth of 41% YoY.
The Retail segment grew 56% YoY, with robust same-store sales growth (SSSG) of 46% YoY as the primary driver, indicating that the growth was substantially organic in nature, driven by deeper customer engagement at existing stores. As a result, the Retail segment contributed around 78% of the total revenue, which is meaningfully higher on a YoY basis.
Franchise and E-com business grew by 8% and 20% respectively YoY.
Share of gold bullion sales in Retail revenue is normalized and on a stable level of ~22% as compared to a higher share in the previous quarter. The consistent reduction in the lower-margin bullion business, alongside the rising contribution of retail and studded jewellery, continues to drive a structural improvement in the overall quality of revenue.
Product Mix
The Company recorded strong growth across categories. Diamond jewellery growth reflects the growing consumer preference for studded jewellery across our existing and new markets. As a result, the studded jewellery mix improved, with the retail stud ratio rising to 10.9%.
Notably, our recently launched stores across Northern and Central India, though still contributing around 3.4% of Retail sales, are already recording a meaningfully higher stud ratio than our established network in Maharashtra and Goa. This early evidence validates our strategy of expanding into new geographies where the preference for studded jewellery is structurally stronger. As the contribution of these stores rises with the planned expansion over the coming quarters, this mix advantage is expected to scale meaningfully at the company level.
Operational Highlights
During the quarter, our focus remained on strengthening the performance of the existing network, advancing site identification and franchise partner onboarding for upcoming launches, and building the operational readiness required to execute the expansion pipeline for the remainder of the year.
The total store count as of June 30, 2026, stood at 78 (77 in India and 1 in the U.S.A.), with the store rollout for the year planned from the subsequent quarters onwards, in line with our phased expansion calendar.
Outlook for FY27
Financial performance for the quarter remains in line with our previously stated Gross Margin and EBITDA Margin guidance for FY27, and we remain confident of delivering on the same.
Further, we remain on track with our stated plan of opening ~25 new stores during the fiscal year, taking the total store count to ~103 by the end of FY27. The rollout will be phased across the remaining three quarters of the year, with a progressively accelerating launch calendar and a franchise-led approach across both Legacy and LiteStyle formats, deepening our presence in Maharashtra while progressively expanding into Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Central India and the NCR region.
Note: This update provides a summary of the company’s financial performance for the quarter ended June 30, 2026. The results are subject to limited review by the Statutory Auditors. Upon approval by the Board of Directors, a detailed information update will follow. The revenue figures mentioned above represent revenue from the sale of goods.

Gold prices in India extend recovery on softer U.S. dollar, easing Treasury yields, lower crude oil prices.
Market participants attributed the firming metal prices to a pause in U.S. yield gains following strong demand at the latest 30-year U.S. Treasury auction, which relieved pressure on non-yielding assets.
Gold prices in India extended their recovery on Saturday, with 24-carat gold climbing back above the 151,000 rupee mark per 10 grams, supported by a softer U.S. dollar, easing Treasury yields, and lower crude oil prices.
The domestic benchmark rate for 24K gold rose by 710 rupees, or approximately 0.47%, to 151,420 rupees per 10 grams. For bulk purchases, 100 grams of 24K gold stood at 1,514,200 rupees, up 7,100 rupees from the previous session.
Jewellery-grade 22K gold advanced by 650 rupees to 138,800 rupees per 10 grams, while 18K gold climbed 540 rupees to hit 113,570 rupees per 10 grams. Per sovereign (8 grams), 24K gold traded at 121,136 rupees and 22K gold at 111,040 rupees.
The rebound follows a volatile week for bullion. Over the past four sessions, 24K gold has climbed nearly 1.5%, gaining roughly 2,240 rupees from 149,180 rupees on Oct. 6. On the Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX), gold futures rebounded above 151,000 rupees after dipping toward the 149,000 rupee level earlier in the week.
In international markets, spot gold traded near $4,174.78 an ounce after recovering from $4,118.63 in the previous session and briefly breaching $4,200. International spot silver surged over 2% to trade around $60.40 an ounce, driving domestic silver rates in India to approximately 235,000 rupees per kilogram.
Market participants attributed the firming metal prices to a pause in U.S. yield gains following strong demand at the latest 30-year U.S. Treasury auction, which relieved pressure on non-yielding assets.
However, analysts warned that near-term gains may remain capped due to expectations surrounding Federal Reserve monetary policy.The key constraint is the Federal Reserve’s hawkish stance, with policymakers signaling that further tightening may be necessary to bring inflation back to target.
