Tata Group Company Sees 18% Sales Growth In September Quarter

Tata group company Titan on Thursday said its overall sales registered a growth of 18% year-on-year in the September quarter.

The company, which operates in the segments as Jewellery, Watches & Wearables, and EyeCare has witnessed "healthy double-digit growth across most businesses," according to a quarterly update.

About the outlook for the festive season, the company said it continues to be "optimistic and is visible in positive consumer sentiment" across categories, according to a PTI report.

During the September quarter, Titan's jewellery division, which contributes around 85 per cent of its revenue, grew "18 per cent YoY on a high base of Q2FY22 that had elements of pent-up demand and spillover purchases of a Covid-disrupted Q1 FY22".

The product-mix in the jewellery division improved compared to last year but continued to be below pre-pandemic levels.

" Walk-ins grew in low double digits YoY with steady buyer conversions," the company said.

The Watches & Wearables division grew 20 per cent clocking its highest quarterly revenue.

In the Eyecare segment, its Titan Eye+ stores saw healthy double-digit growth. However, the same was offset by lower YoY sales across Trade & Distribution channel, leading to an overall 7 per cent growth for the division, added the PTI report.

Titan''s Fragrances & Fashion Accessories grew 34 per cent YoY, driven by 37 per cent growth in Fragrances and 29 per cent growth in Fashion Accessories.
