Organised Gold Retailers Project Revenue Growth Amid Slower Volume Decline This Fiscal
India's organised gold jewellery retailers are expected to see a slower decline in sales volumes of 4-6% this fiscal, improving from an 8% drop last year, despite elevated gold prices. Revenue is projected to grow 21-23% due to higher gold prices averaging 25-27% above last fiscal. Moderation in price increases and festive season demand have improved customer footfalls. Operating margins may decline slightly due to reduced inventory gains and increased promotional spending, according to Crisil Ratings.
