The revenue development has been actually amazing. Our combined revenue has actually grown through 27 per cent as well as dab also grew at the very same degree of revenue. The best scenario will have been actually if dab had actually grown more than profits, however our team had to spend much more on promotions in specific markets to get market portion, which influenced our PAT development. EBITDA margins have actually been decreasing because of our franchisee style, FOCO, whereby our experts discuss disgusting frames with the franchisee partner.

Presently, the lifestyle jewellery portion is expanding at a fast lane in India. So we are actually trying to focus on this portion under the label Candere and also our company are initially putting together bodily shops, to ensure if our company make demand, the source can be ensured of.Till in 2014, Candere had 12 outlets. This , our team have actually opened up thirteen additional and our intended is actually to open up fifty display rooms within this fiscal year, out of which our experts will open twenty even more just before Diwali. The amount of has been the payment coming from the global markets as well as just how perform you view it raising going ahead?In the US, our company will certainly level our 1st establishment just before Diwali, nonetheless, mostly our concentration performs India as well as it will remain to remain our major market.Currently, 85 percent of our revenue is actually added due to the Indian market and also the staying 15 percent arises from the Center East.

On one hand, footfalls have raised and also same-store purchases development is even stronger than June whereas, on the other hand, the negative thing is that there is a single write of around Rs 120 crore and also it will certainly be actually somewhat absorbed in Q2 as well as Q3.If you take a look at mid-term as well as lasting influence, then it's not positive.
