Kalyan Jewellers’ Q2FY27 presentation puts revenue, profitability and segment visibility in focus

Kalyan Jewellers has been scaling its showroom network through a franchisee-owned, company-operated model while widening its reach beyond South India and building Candere as a contemporary jewellery platform. Its Q2FY27 investor presentation has now brought the group’s consolidated profitability, India operations and Middle East business into sharper focus.

The presentation highlighted consolidated revenue of Rs 41,529.9 crore, earnings before interest, Tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) of Rs 2,763.1 crore and profit after tax (PAT) of Rs 1,601.6 crore. It also cited Rs 6,638.1 crore as a financial metric in its key highlights.

The quarterly disclosure includes a consolidated performance dashboard covering revenue, gross profit, EBITDA and PAT, along with consolidated income statements for Q2FY27 and the first half of FY27. This provides a wider view of the business than headline sales alone, particularly as jewellery retail earnings can be influenced by gold prices, product mix, promotional activity and showroom expansion costs.

India remains the principal operating focus, with separate reporting for revenue, gross profit, EBITDA, PAT and showroom count. The company has also broken out South and non-South revenue, as well as gold and studded-jewellery revenue. The split is significant because Kalyan’s expansion thesis rests on growing its presence in non-South markets while increasing the contribution of higher-value studded jewellery.

The Middle East business is separately presented with revenue, gross profit, EBITDA, PAT and showroom metrics. Candere also remains part of the group’s performance discussion as Kalyan develops the digital-first and lifestyle-led format through both online access and physical stores.

The presentation additionally tracks return on capital employed, return on equity and leverage indicators including net debt to EBITDA and net debt to equity. This is relevant for a retailer pursuing rapid network expansion, even as its franchise-led approach is intended to limit capital intensity and retain operating control.

As of 9:52 am on November 11, 2026, Kalyan Jewellers shares were trading at Rs 682.05, up 11.63 per cent from the previous close. The company’s market capitalisation stood at about Rs 63,101 crore. The stock has gained 21.04 per cent over one year, compared with a 0.08 per cent decline in the BSE 500 over the same period. Foreign institutional ownership increased by 3.01 percentage points to 13.83 per cent.

What This Means for Investors

The presentation supports the view that Kalyan is building a broader, more measurable jewellery retail platform rather than relying solely on consolidated sales growth. Separate India and Middle East dashboards, along with South and non-South revenue and product-category disclosures, should help investors assess whether expansion is translating into a more diversified revenue base. The inclusion of showroom counts, returns and leverage measures also makes capital efficiency a central part of the operating narrative.

The financial update is supportive of the company’s scale-up strategy, but margin quality remains the key issue. Higher old-gold exchange activity has previously diluted margins by around 0.2 to 0.3 percentage points, while employee costs have risen following a compensation reset. At 39.4 times trailing twelve-month earnings and 20.71 times enterprise value to trailing twelve-month EBITDA, the valuation continues to require sustained growth, disciplined franchise execution and evidence that profitability can hold up as the network expands.
