Baazar Style Retail overview, Q2 results review

 
Style Baazar is a leading value fashion retailer with a strong presence in Eastern India offering a one stop-shop family experience with comprehensive product offerings in both Apparel and General merchandise categories at affordable prices. It has product offerings in Apparels and General merchandise, with Apparels constituting 85 per cent of its overall offerings and a private label share of 40 per cent in the overall mix.
 
The second quarter (July to September) of the financial year 2025-26 (Q2FY26) saw a strong demand uptick, aided by the early arrival of festival season, which is a key consumption period in the company’s core market. The management in the Q2 earnings conference call said the company’s regional leadership in the under-penetrated eastern region continues to strengthen as customers increasingly gravitate towards branded value fashion.
 
Q2FY26 marked a milestone period for the company with highest-ever quarterly and half-yearly revenue and operating metrics across key parameters along with profit growth.
 
In Q2FY26, revenue from operations grew 71 per cent year-on-year to ₹532 crore, supported by strong growth across both our core and focus markets. EBITDA rose 184 per cent year-on-year to ₹69 crore, reflecting improved operational efficiency and disciplined cost management.
 
Tier 2 and Tier-3 markets continue to lead the consumption momentum driven by rising disposable income, aspirational lifestyle, and a clear shift from unorganized to organized retail. Simultaneously, Tier 1 markets are witnessing strong participation from younger value-conscious consumers who seek both affordability and style. Despite global macro uncertainties, domestic consumption remains resilient with customers increasingly prioritizing the quality, experience and value, a space where Baazar Style is naturally positioned as a leader, the management said.
