Q2 and H1 FY '27 saw us build further on the 5 strategic priorities we outlined at the start of the
year. Even as the quarter was shaped by the late festive calendar and higher RM costs, let me
take you through where we stand on each of these priorities at the halfway mark of the year and
then speak about the quarters and the way ahead.
1. Priority one was turning SSSG positive:
Turning SSSG positive remains our single most important commitment for the year.
After turning positive in Q1 at 0.6%, same-store sales worth for our EBOs in Q2 was
broadly flat. This needs to be seen in the context of the late festive calendar.
With the festive season starting later this year, a part of the pre-demand festive that
falls in September last year has moved to October. As we said last quarter, one quarter
does not make a trend in either direction. Our focus remains on delivering positive
SSSG for FY '27 as a whole and the festive quarter will be an important one of that
journey.
2. Priority two, mitigating to larger store formats:

Our transition to larger format stores continued through the quarter. During Q2, we
have opened 9 new stores and closed 23 smaller format stores in catchments where we
already have or are opening a larger store nearby.
For H1 FY '27, this takes us to 24 openings and 89 closures for the 6 months and we
ended September with a grand total of 737 EBOs across 196 cities. Importantly, even
with the lower store count, our total retail space increased to approximately 4.4 lakh
square feet as on 30th September 2026 compared to 4.34 lakh as on 31st March 2026.
There is an addition of roughly 14,220 square feet during half of the year as we opened
larger stores and enlarged existing ones wherever additional space were available. Our
average EBO size stands at about 608 square feet.
Our larger format stores continue to do well and outperform the smaller stores in the
network which reinforces our conviction in this strategy. These stores hold our full
range and give customers a significantly more premium shopping experience.
Our store expansion strategy will continue to remain calibrated and selective with a
clear focus on adding high potential locations across Tier-1, Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities.
Over the next 5 years, we aim to significantly expand our footprint with the potential
to nearly double our square feet in terms of size.
3. Priority three is to refresh the product portfolio and the brand:
We continue to refresh our product portfolio with new styles aimed at younger trend-
conscious consumers and remain on track to add new products through FY '27. Our
value-added non-leggings portfolio now contributes to 70% of the revenue reflecting
the steady premiumization of what Go Colors offers.
On the brand front, our first campaign featuring Shraddha Kapoor, who came on board
as a Brand Ambassador in July, went live during the quarter and it has been very well
executed and seen some good results.
It has given the brand a fresh, younger and connect heading into the festive season and
together with our influencer-led initiatives, we believe it will support stronger
customer acquisition in the coming quarters.
4. Priority four is to expand our dailywear concept:
We continue to scale our dailywear concept and now have 21 operational stores
compared with 15 in Q1. We remain committed to our target of 25-30 daily stores by
the end of FY '27. The unit economics continue to hold up well and the festive quarter
will give us a good read on how these stores will perform in the peak season.

5. Priority five is our LFS channel recovery:
LFS revenue in Q2 was impacted because of festive timing. Dispatches to our LFS
partners typically take place in September ahead of the festive season and move to
October this year. This is a shift in timing rather than demand and the supply chain
with the key LFS partners remains normalized. We continue to work closely with our
partners on assortment, placement and sell-through and LFS contributed about 23%
of our sales in H1 FY '27. So, while the Q2 numbers were affected by the festive timing
and raw material inflation, the underlying progress on our five priorities remain on
track.
Coming to the financial performance:
Revenue for Q2 FY '27 de-grew by 3% largely on account of the festive dates that I just spoke
about. Gross margins for the quarter stood at 60.8%. As I mentioned on the last call, fabric prices
have gone up due to the geopolitical situation, and this higher-cost inventory has started flowing
in Quarter 2. We intend to pass on the raw material inflation through calibrated pricing actions
which will help restore gross margins in the coming quarters. During the quarter, we recognized
an exceptional expense of Rs. 3.4 crores taking the total of our H1 FY '27 to Rs. 9.9 crores. This
exceptional expenditure is a write-off of capital expenditure on account of store closures which
has happened through the 6 months. It is a direct consequence of our network consolidation
strategy and it is a one-off item. Full price sales ratio for H1 FY '27 stood at a healthy 93% and
our average selling price for EBOs is at Rs. 827.
On the balance sheet side:
We continue to make good progress. Working capital days stood at 134 days, with inventory
days improving to 94 days from 100 days at the end of Q1, now within the 90-100 day range
which we had guided earlier this year. Operating cash flow on a pre-end year basis stood at a
healthy Rs. 52.6 crores.
Looking ahead, the festive season has started on a decent note and we will be better placed to
assess the full impact once the period concludes. Priorities for FY '27 remain unchanged,
sustaining SSSG momentum, accelerating our transition to larger format stores,
