The company’s earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) stood at INR 70 Cr, marking a 35.1% increase from the INR 52 Cr EBIT it reported in Q4 FY24. Meanwhile, EBIT margin for the quarter under review grew 69 bps YoY to 7.9%, driven by consistent growth across product categories and expansion in footprint.

Titan said that CaratLane’s buyer rate growth for the quarter stood at 5% YoY. The company attributed the slowdown in growth to high gold prices and an increasing consumer preference towards gold coins. Meanwhile, the average bill value for the jewellery brand was higher by about 18% YoY.

In terms of product categories, revenue from the studded jewellery segment (excluding solitaires) grew 19% YoY, while gold jewellery, coins, and other segments witnessed a significant 42% YoY increase in the March quarter.

The omnichannel jewellery brand also recorded a 22% overall improvement in secondary UCP (unit profitability metric), further underscoring operational efficiencies.

Founded in 2008 by Mithun Sacheti and Srinivasa Gopalan, CaratLane operates as a digitally native jewellery brand with an expanding offline presence. 

Titan, which initially acquired a stake in CaratLane in 2016, turned the company into a wholly owned subsidiary in 2023 after buying out the remaining stake for INR 60.08 Cr, valuing the brand at nearly INR 17,000 Cr at the time of acquisition.

CaratLane competes with legacy retailers like Kalyan Jewellers and Malabar Gold, as well as digitally native brands such as BlueStone and GIVA.
