The consolidated performance of the company was disheartening where one could see the impact of the second wave. Its net profit came in at Rs.18 crore v/s Rs.568 crore in Q4 and loss of Rs.297 crore in Q1FY21. So, YoY, it’s a turnaround, which is not surprising as last Q1 the lockdown was severe. But sequentially, the second wave too has been hard hitting.

Its EBITDA was down 83% (QoQ at Rs.137 crore while margins fell sharply from 10.9% to 3.9%.

Jewellery, which contributes 87% to the company’s total revenue was down 54% (QoQ).

Looking ahead, with restrictions easing from June, with vaccination also picking up, the company is confident of demand coming back in the ensuing quarters.
