Moderator: Ladies and gentlemen, good day and welcome to Titan Company Limited's Q2 FY27 Earnings
Conference Call. As a reminder, all participant lines will be in the listen-only mode, and there
will be an opportunity for you to ask questions after the presentation concludes. Should you need
assistance during the conference call, please signal an operator by pressing star then zero on
your touch-tone phone. Please note that this conference is being recorded.
I now hand the conference over to Mr. Ajoy Chawla, Managing Director, Titan Company
Limited. Thank you, and over to you, Mr. Chawla.
Ajoy Chawla: Thank you. Good evening to everybody on the call. Thank you for being part of this. It has been
another very fulfilling quarter. We have seen fantastic growth at a consolidated level across most
of our brands and businesses, and all of them clocking in very healthy growths, driven, of course,
by a lot of focus on innovation and prioritizing growth over everything else, given the
opportunity that India offers. It looks like very exciting times for us, despite it being a very
volatile quarter in terms of some macros. But overall, a very, very good quarter.
With that, I hand over to Ashok, our CFO, to share some opening remarks.
Ashok Sonthalia: Thank you, Ajoy. Good evening, everyone. I just thought I will take this opportunity to clarify
on particularly two items, so that we all are on same page. One is related to customs duty gains.
We continue to, as we spoke after quarter one, this quarter also saw a good amount of customs
duty gain, which is estimated at ₹490 crores for quarter two in Titan Jewellery division and ₹46
crores in CaratLane. Normalized margin, once you do adjustment for this, on Titan Jewellery
business would be 11.1%.
The other thing in jewellery, which we have spoken last time, that a large part of MTM gain of
quarter one reversed this quarter, which would impact jewellery margin by about 60 basis points.
And if you normalize for that, then TMZ, which is Titan Jewellery business margin, would be
11.7%.
Another important item, which is rather new on our P&L, on the face of P&L we have disclosed
it separately, is related to liability towards the second tranche for the Damas acquisition. This
amount is ₹671 crores. As per Ind AS 109, any financial liability has to be fair valued at every
accounting period.
And with the current environment, when we looked at our liability at the end of four years, which
was accounted for in our books of accounts at ₹1,668 crores, the reassessed liability is less by
₹671 crores. Please note that this assessment will happen at the end of every quarter, and
depending on the recovery trajectory of the Damas, there could be pluses and minuses on account
of this.
But we will continue to disclose it separately so that everyone can understand the nature of that
number, and all other performance metrics are looked at normalizing for this adjustment. We

continue to certainly believe in the long-term opportunity that Damas represents, and we believe
as soon as the geopolitical environment and the conflict situation improves, all the investments
are in place to ensure that that long-term opportunity gets realized at the Titan group level.
With that, I will open the floor for questions, and we will be very happy to answer. All of us are
here to answer your questions. Thank you.
Moderator: Thank you very much, Sir. We will now begin the question-and-answer session. The first
question is from the line of Videesha Sheth from Ambit Capital. Please go ahead.
Videesha Sheth: Hi. My first question was on domestic jewellery EBIT margin. In case of Tanishq, Mia and
Zoya, you have talked about investments going to higher competition. So which price points or
categories or regions is this persisting in? When you talk about investments, are there any
incremental schemes beyond the 0% deduction on old gold, or is it more from an ad campaign
perspective?
Just in continuation to this, even CaratLane has seen pressure on margins from 10.2% in the base
period to 6.5%. Does the same competition argument apply there from the challenger daily wear
brand, or has it got to do with the festive shift? That would be my first question.
Ashok Sonthalia: So, let me take this question and then maybe Arun and Saumen can add to that. I am Ashok here.
Since increase in customs duty, the domestic market has been operating at a discount compared
to international. I am talking about gold prices. That leads to the gold price realization pressure.
We also must understand that this is the second, the other side of the coin. One side is the customs
duty gain of ₹490 crores, and this pressure is the other side of the coin. So we are normalizing
that gain completely, and we are talking this in isolation. Actually, we should look at both sides
of the coin, that we are gaining on customs duty, but there is certainly pressure on gold price
realization because the entire market is doing that.
As far as CaratLane is concerned, they have making a conscious choice to invest on brand
building and some of the talent-related investments. And of course, the promotional offers,
etcetera, were at elevated level in this quarter.
But if you look at the entire H1 margin profile of CaratLane, still remains healthy, still remains
as per our plan that gradually their EBIT margin should start inching up from 8% to 9%, and
then further from there in next couple of years. But anything, Arun, Saumen, you want to add?
Saumen Bhaumik: No, I am done.
Ashok Sonthalia: Yes. Yes. No, so that is what, if I do not know whether…
Videesha Sheth: Got it. No, that answers. And the second one is if you can share your observations on the
secondary and consumer level trends during this festive versus last festive across all your
consumer segments?

Arun Narayan: Okay, Arun here. I will start with Tanishq, Mia, Zoya. This year festive pretty much can be seen
in three phases. The first phase of Navratri from October 11 to October 22, then the second phase
in between, and now we are in the last leg with Dhanteras tomorrow.
The first phase of Navratri, we
