Key highlights
- Annual revenue reached ₹3,067 crore, a 63% increase year-on-year, driven by strong volumes and footprint expansion.
- Net profit for FY26 scaled to ₹162 crore, marking a significant 125% growth compared to the previous fiscal year.
- Management provided robust guidance of 50% revenue growth for the next two fiscal years, supported by high-velocity inventory turnover.
- The company successfully added 136 stores during FY26, bringing its active customer database to approximately 8 crore consumers.
- Full-price sales accounted for 90% of total revenue, reflecting strong brand pull and minimal reliance on end-of-season discounting.
Financial Performance and Operational Efficiency
V2 Retail concluded FY26 with a robust 60% year-on-year revenue growth in the final quarter, reaching ₹797 crore. For the full fiscal year, the company achieved an EBITDA margin of 14.9%, an improvement from 13.7% in the previous year. This margin expansion was supported by a 47% growth in sales volumes, even as average selling prices increased by 4-5% due to inflationary pressures.
Notably, the company maintains a high-velocity business model where 90% of sales occur at full price, effectively reducing the need for aggressive discounting cycles that typically weigh on retail profitability.
Management Outlook and Strategic Guidance
- Projected revenue growth of 50% annually for the next two years, targeting a top-tier position in the Indian value fashion market.
- Aggressive expansion plan to add 170 to 200 new stores in FY27, focusing on Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities.
- Estimated capital expenditure of ₹1.2 to ₹1.3 crore per new store, excluding inventory costs.
- Strategic focus on passing through 3-4% increases in raw material and yarn prices to consumers to protect existing margins.
- Long-term objective to leverage operating efficiency as new stores mature over a 3-4 year cycle.
Corporate Vision
Management is aiming for a 20-year vision to be the top value retailer, focusing on high-velocity value fashion and avoiding heavy discounts.
Market Dynamics and Segment Performance
The retail sector saw varied growth across categories, with V2 Retail reporting that Men's wear remained the largest contributor at 41-42% of sales, followed by Women's wear at 27% and Kids' wear at 25%. Despite global geopolitical tensions causing a slight uptick in commodity prices, the company observed strong demand visibility in rural and semi-urban markets. Management noted that while May 2026 saw a temporary impact on sales, the overall momentum in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities remains positive, providing a solid foundation for their multi-year expansion strategy.
What to Watch
- Successful execution of the 170-200 store expansion target for FY27 and its impact on the debt-to-equity ratio.
- Stabilization of raw material costs, particularly yarn, which management expects could fluctuate by 3-4%.
- The timeline for operating leverage to kick in as the 136 stores added in FY26 reach operational maturity.
- Ability to maintain the 50% revenue growth guidance amidst potential competitive intensity in the value fashion segment.
