Revenue of organised gold jewellers to rise 16-18% in FY24: Report

Sustained high gold prices are likely to hike revenues of organised gold jewellery retailers by 16-18 per cent this fiscal, a report said on Thursday. However, volume growth will remain modest due to elevated prices this fiscal. This comes after a stellar compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 35 per cent logged during FY22 and FY23, mainly due to strong volume growth, driven by pent-up demand and increased consumer spending. Average realisations during the previous two fiscals increased at a CAGR of 5 per cent, Crisil Ratings said in a report. "We expect a low single-digit volume growth for the organised players during FY24, given elevated gold prices. That said, organised players will continue to see modest market share gain, compared with unorganised players. While revenue will grow by 16-18 per cent on sustained high gold prices," Crisil Ratings Senior Director Anuj Sethi said. The organised sector accounts for slightly more than a third of the market, with the unorganised secto

Organised gold jewellery retailers' revenue to grow 23-25% in FY23: Report

The organised jewellery retailers are expected to witness 23-25 per cent revenue growth this financial year on pent-up demand and recovery in discretionary spending, according to a report. The revenue of organised gold jewellery retailers -- which had jumped 36 per cent in the last fiscal on a low base of the pandemic-marred FY21 -- will grow 23-25 per cent this fiscal as volume grows on pent-up demand and recovery in discretionary spending, Crisil Ratings said in a report on Thursday. However, the report said that in 2023-24, growth will moderate to 8-12 per cent, given the higher base of this fiscal and slower growth in disposable incomes will weigh on discretionary spending. In this scenario, the operating margin is likely to decline 40-70 basis points year-on-year because of increased marketing and store-related expenses, and stabilise at the pre-pandemic level of 6.7-7 per cent this fiscal and in FY24. Crisil Ratings has given the credit outlook for organised players as ...
