ICICI Securities Report

Titan Company Ltd.’s Q2 FY21 jewellery sales declined just 2%, however, adjusting for the ineffective hedge, sales declined 16%.

More importantly, adjusting for one-offs, jewellery Ebit margins declined only 170 basis points to 9.2% despite an inferior product mix.

Potential growth drivers are -

  1. boost to volumes from (somewhat) stable gold prices,
  2. consumers (likely) accepting higher gold prices and expecting further inflation and
  3. market share gains (liquidity challenges for smaller competitors).
