Letter from the Founders
Dear Shareholders,
Last year, we went public. Many saw an eyewear company - good stores, improving EBITDA. That is a fair first
view of any newly listed company. Now we would like to share the fuller story - because what thousands of
Lenskartians have spent a decade building is, we believe, one of India's leading global consumer companies in
the making, and it deserves to be seen as a whole.
First, the quarter. Revenue grew 33.6% YoY, EBITDA (pre-IndAS 116) grew 95.0%, and PAT grew 2.8x to ₹228 Cr.
Put differently: a third more revenue; double the EBITDA; nearly triple the PAT - compounding is accelerating.
Behind the financials, the engine: 0.7 Cr eye tests (+39.8% YoY), India SSSG of 18.3%, and volumes up 25.7% in
line with our past average. Consolidated product margin crossed 70% for the first time. Measure us over years,
not quarters; we intend to be more demanding of ourselves than you are of us.
We see our role as creating the market, not competing in it. Every single day, roughly 35,000 Indians discover at
Lenskart, for the first time in their lives, that they cannot see clearly - 63 lakh eye tests in India this quarter, over
1 Cr first-ever tests in FY26. That is a market being born - daily, measurably, in our stores. Much of this is by
design: for a decade we have built every layer ourselves - the technology, the manufacturing, the supply chain,
the optometry, the brands, the data, the customer trust.
India has not bought its glasses yet. ~94 Cr Indians will need eyeglasses - and our ambition is to serve every one
of them: every income, every age, every town. This is not a market to capture; it is a market to build, and we have
spent a decade assembling the elements to build it. The proof is in this quarter itself: our largest-ever number
of customers in the Real Bharat - ₹500 glasses, lenses and warranty included, sold profitably through Hustlr Club.
At the same time, glasses with high-end Rodenstock and Tokai lenses, with progressive lenses at ₹30,000, did
~₹250 Cr annually. Similarly, glasses with premium Owndays lenses, a business that did not exist in India two
years ago, did over ₹1,500 Cr annual sales. Two confessions. It took us too long to crack the ₹500 pair - the
customer was ready; our costs were not. And we underestimated how fast our own customers would
premiumize. We do not intend to repeat either mistake.
What we built for India already serves the world - Singapore to Tokyo to Riyadh. This quarter, International grew
38% with EBITDA (pre-IndAS 116) margin crossing 10%. The question mark is gone; what remains is scale.
Owndays is one of Asia's most respected brands; Meller, a US$35 Mn brand when we acquired it, is tracking to be
a ~US$70 Mn brand - its Paris signature store draws a daily queue, with London next. Could Meller be the Ray-
Ban of the future? I don't know - but the potential is there. Our aspiration, held with humility, is to build the world's
most relevant eyewear company.
The frontier ahead sits on the face. Our self-eye test entered pilot stores this quarter. India trains barely a few
thousand optometrists a year; you cannot train your way to a billion eye tests – you have to engineer it. When one
optometrist’s skill can reach a thousand rooms, access stops being rationed - and a billion tested eyes stops
being a dream and becomes a schedule. B by Lenskart is live – 80,000+ sign-ups, smart glasses shipping daily.
Eyewear sits on the face 12 hours a day - no device is closer to a human. Owning the design, the lens, the frame,
the diagnostics, and the AI gives us a rare seat at the intersection of eyecare, AI, personal health, and data.
We set out to sell eyeglasses. It was always a dream - to change how a billion people see and experience the
world. Today that dream has a shape: the infrastructure of vision, built for those no one has ever served. Few
companies get to attempt this. It is still Day Zero.

• ROCE improved to 23.2% in Q1 FY27 vs 14.6% for FY26, driven by EBIT growth and disciplined capital
allocation
Notes:
• In line with the Prospectus, all numbers presented in the Shareholders’ Letter are based on Proforma Financials (except ROCE, Net working capital
days and Cash Flow, or unless stated otherwise), providing a clear like-for-like comparison. Proforma adjusts for the recent M&A, specifically the
consolidation of the master-franchisee - Dealskart, GeoIQ and international acquisition of Meller: from Q3 FY26 onward, Proforma and Reported
financials are identical.
• EBITDA is after considering ESOP costs and R&D expenses, and it excludes Other Income.
