What is the story about?
Shares of jewellery companies, Titan Company Ltd., Senco Gold Ltd., Kalyan Jewellers Ltd., and others will be in focus on Monday, May 11, after Prime Minister Narendra Modi's speech at an event in Hyderabad over the weekend.
During his address in Hyderabad at a public event, PM Modi appealed to citizens to not purchase gold for weddings for a period of one year. He made this appeal along with other measures such as re-introducing work from home culture, avoid unnecessary travel, including international travel to conserve on fuel and foreign exchange used for importing the same.
India's gold imports in April may fall to their lowest level in three decades as banks have been hit by an unexpected tax demand, Reuters reported on April 30, citing government sources.
Banks have halted shipments as Indian customs began to demand a 3% integrated GST on the same, Reuters reported, citing India Bullion and Jewellers Association secretary Surendra Mehta.
India is the world's second-largest gold consumer, and had imported an average 60 tonnes per month of Gold during financial year 2026, averaging a monthly cost of $6 billion.
The report further stated that jewelers had begun sourcing the imported gold from the India International Bullion Exchange (IIBX) although the volumes were small.
Although Titan's fourth quarter revenue was above expectations, its margins declined from last year, and gross margins too narrowed. The numbers were below street expectations, and yet, the stock had surged after the result reaction.
The company also said that it is conscious of the macro volatility and the fragile geopolitical situation.
Kalyan Jewellers' revenue grew by 66% from last year during the fourth quarter, with margins also expanding from the same quarter last year.
Senco Gold achieved growth of 46% from last year in the fourth quarter and 35% growth for financial year 2026. Same store sales growth stood at 34% during the quarter.
The company said that it is geared up for Akshaya Tritiya, Poila Boishak, Baishakhi, Rath Yatra & Raja Parba in Odisha and the summer wedding season in the first quarter of financial year 2027.
The company had also planned to launched 20-25 stores in the new financial year.
