Completed Acquisition of Shri Rishab Gold: Sky Gold acquired a 51% partnership interest in Shri Rishab Gold through its subsidiary, expanding manufacturing capabilities and customer base.

Key Customer Additions: Export portfolio strengthened with the addition of DAMAS UAE and KANZ UAE. Domestic growth saw the onboarding of major brands like GIVA, C. Krishniah Chetty (CKC) Group, and PMJ Jewels.

Inauguration of Dubai Office: This office is positioned as a strategic hub to penetrate markets beyond the Indian diaspora, reinforced by experienced talent.

Promoters’ Vision: SkyGold 3.0

In the management comments, promoters emphasized placing governance and professionalisation at the core of the ‘SkyGold 3.0’ journey. A key commitment is that promoters will not draw salaries from FY27; all promoter payouts will be solely through dividends generated from operating cash flows, aligning outcomes with cash generation and balance-sheet strength.

The company plans to onboard one of the larger global accounting firms following Q4 FY26 results to enhance financial reporting credibility.

Competitive Moat and Vision 2030 Milestones

Sky Gold & Diamonds emphasizes its competitive advantages built on technological innovation, creative scalability, and industry-leading manufacturing cycles. Key achievements include:

  • Doubling design talent to ~150 professionals over three years.
  • Value-Added share of business surging from <10% in FY23 to ~50-55% in FY26, driving margin expansion.
  • Operational Excellence achieved via ERP implementation, reducing gold loss from 1.5% to 0.5%.

Vision 2030 Guidance

The company is realizing its ambitious targets, revising guidance upwards:

  • FY26/FY27 Revenue Projected: ~₹6,100 / ₹8,100 crore.
  • EBITDA Margin Guided: Range of ~7.0-7.5%.
  • PAT Margin Guided: 4.25%+.

The long-term FY30 Guidance targets revenue between ~₹18,000-₹19,000 crore, with a PAT margin projected at ~5.25%+, aggregating to ₹945 crores, and a target ROCE of 27%+.

Growth Blueprint: Operational Levers

The growth strategy focuses on strengthening foundations for long-term value, shifting to a Growth-Led, Cash-Focused model in the third phase (Sky Gold 3.0).

A critical lever is the ‘Advance Gold’ model, where customers supply gold upfront. This model requires zero working capital investment for inventory. By FY30, advance gold is expected to contribute ~20% of volumes (up from ~7% in FY26). This, combined with high-growth categories, guides for 10-20 bps PAT margin improvement YoY.

Market Context

The presentation notes the positive market environment, with the Indian Domestic Jewellery Market projected to reach USD 145 billion by FY 2028. Furthermore, the organized sector’s share is expected to grow to 43.0% by FY28P, indicating a significant structural shift towards organized players like Sky Gold.

  • Revenue grew from ₹1,153.8 Crore (FY23) to ₹3,548.0 Crore (FY25).
  • PAT grew from ₹18.6 Crore (FY23) to ₹132.7 Crore (FY25).
  • PAT Margin improved from 1.6% (FY23) to 3.7% (FY25).
