The company said that its sales grew about 50% so far in this fiscal over financial year 2021, and it is confident of closing 2022 at a topline revenue of Rs 31000 crore.The group has set a target of becoming the world’s largest jeweller by 2025 with a topline of over Rs 75000 crore and 750 showrooms.

The company further explained that 80% of its business is still coming from gold and 20% from diamonds. However, the demand for the latter is growing faster than ever. At an industry level, only under 15% demand is for diamond.

To cap it all, the company said that it has been giving away 5% of its net income from the very first year of operations towards CSR and will increase the number to Rs 100 crore.
