Shares of Senco Gold rose 2.11% to ₹388.85 after the company posted a sharp rise in earnings for the fourth quarter ended March 2025. The company’s net profit nearly doubled — rising 94.1% year-on-year (YoY) to ₹94 crore — driven by strong revenue growth and improved operational performance. Revenue from operations for Q4 stood at ₹1,377.71 crore, up 21.1% compared to Q4 FY24.

Profit before tax (PBT) increased by 62.4% YoY to ₹85.08 crore, while EBITDA rose 44.8% to ₹127.01 crore. The EBITDA margin improved by 150 basis points to 9.2%, reflecting better cost efficiency and higher value sales.

Operating expenses for the quarter grew by 19.2% to ₹1,250.69 crore. The cost of materials consumed increased 21.6% to ₹1,146.46 crore, and employee benefit expenses rose 27.1% to ₹35.65 crore.

For the full fiscal year FY25, Senco reported a 20.7% increase in revenue to ₹6,328.07 crore. However, net profit declined by 12% to ₹159.31 crore due to a one-time impact from a customs duty cut in July 2024. Adjusted PAT for FY25 stood at ₹207.9 crore, a YoY growth of 10.1%.

Suvankar Sen, Managing Director & CEO, highlighted the company’s robust Q4 performance, with same-store sales growth (SSSG) at 18% and a 21% volume growth in diamond jewellery, which translated to a 38% rise in value terms. Company-owned outlets, contributing 64% of retail revenues, posted a 21% growth, while the franchise segment, contributing 36%, grew by 28% YoY.

The company opened five new showrooms in Q4, across COCO, FOCO, and FOFO models. Senco also saw a surge in old gold exchanges, which made up 40% of total sales, with 61% of that coming from new, non-Senco customers.

Senco Gold, a prominent national jewellery retailer, offers a wide range of products including gold, diamond, Polki, Platinum, Kundan, Jadau, silver, and both precious and semi-precious stones.

Forevermark Diamond Jewellery Strengthens Growth Momentun ahead of Akshaya Tritiya

Published

Akshaya Tritiya marks a time of new beginnings and prosperity and remains one of the most significant occasions for jewellery purchases among Indian consumers. Ahead of this auspicious season, Forevermark Diamond Jewellery is accelerating its growth momentum to tap into this heightened demand. Following its launch last year as a diamond jewellery brand for modern Indian consumers, the brand has witnessed a strong growth trajectory driven by retail expansion and consumer-first innovation.

Under the leadership of Mallikarjuna Reddy Yarabolu, Managing Director, Forevermark, De Beers India Pvt. Ltd., the brand continues to accelerate its national expansion and strategic transformation. Earlier this year, Forevermark strengthened its retail presence with the launch of De Beers Group’s largest global flagship store in Mumbai, a milestone that underscores the brand’s growing leadership in the Indian luxury jewellery market. This momentum continues with the brand’s entry into emerging luxury hubs such as Chandigarh and Patna, reaffirming Forevermark’s commitment to reaching consumers beyond traditional metro strongholds. Over the past several months, Forevermark Diamond Jewellery has rolled out high-impact initiatives across merchandising, marketing, operations, digital and omni-channel experiences, collectively driving measurable progress toward a more customer-centric, modern, and scalable retail model. Today, the brand operates eight stores nationwide, supported by a network of smaller-format stores designed for efficiency and locally relevant assortments. Complementing this footprint are two flagship stores, which anchor Forevermark’s brand presence while enabling the wider retail network to offer curated, market-specific collections.

Speaking on the evolving market dynamic, Mr Reddy Said:

“Akshaya Tritiya remains a deeply significant occasion for Indian consumers, symbolising prosperity, new beginnings, and meaningful bonds. Today, diamond purchases are increasingly driven by intent, emotional value, and a desire for authenticity. Consumers are choosing natural diamonds to celebrate personal milestones, values that align closely with Forevermark’s commitment to transparency, integrity, and responsible sourcing. As we expand our presence across the country, we are bringing our promise of rare, natural diamonds closer to consumers, enabling them to celebrate with pieces that hold lasting value and timeless meaning.”

Forevermark Diamond Jewellery has undertaken a comprehensive merchandising reset to enhance product availability and ensure retail consistency across its network. The rollout of standardised 800 sq. ft. and 1500 sq. ft. store formats, along with a newly implemented six-tier pricing architecture, has strengthened the brand’s ability to serve both value-seeking and premium consumers, enabling broader category participation.

On the marketing front, the brand has deepened consumer engagement by focusing on experience-led retail and high-affinity storytelling. Forevermark’s omni-channel ecosystem continues to gain momentum, with digital initiatives delivering robust engagement and conversion outcomes.

This momentum places Forevermark at the forefront of a rapidly expanding diamond jewellery market in India. India has now emerged as the world’s second-largest diamond jewellery market, capturing 12% of global demand and surpassing sales value in China and Japan, driven by rising incomes, strong Gen Z and millennial adoption, and a growing preference for natural diamonds.

Forevermark stands poised for a strong Akshaya Tritiya season and sustained growth ahead, supported by deep consumer trust, expanding retail access, and a rapidly evolving diamond jewellery market that continues to redefine India’s luxury landscape.

This Akshaya Tritiya, all purchases above INR 3,00,000 are complemented by a first-of-its-kind exclusive gold diamond coin, crafted by Forevermark to mark a moment of lasting significance.
