1. Opening Hook
Gold prices are at record highs, weddings are supposedly “postponed,” and analysts keep saying jewellery demand is dead.
Meanwhile, Khazanchi Jewellers walks into Q2 FY26, drops a 46% revenue growth bomb, and casually says, “Demand is fine, thanks.”
This wasn’t a concall; it was a reminder that Indian weddings don’t care about macro theories. Gold goes up, consumers sulk for two months, then come back stronger.
Management sounded confident, margins expanded, and a 10,000 sq. ft. showroom is about to open right in Sowcarpet—because subtle expansion is overrated.
Read on. It gets shinier, heavier, and far more margin-accretive later. 😏
2. At a Glance
- Revenue up 46% – Gold prices screamed, Khazanchi screamed louder.
- EBITDA up 113% – Operating leverage finally flexed at the gym.
- Margins +186 bps – Bullion quietly shown the exit door.
- PAT up 119% – Accountants clearly had a good quarter.
- B2B still 90% – Wholesale runs the show, retail is warming up backstage.
