Investment RationaleTitan’s Q2FY22 consolidated revenue grew 65% YoY to INR74.9bn (HSIE: INR74.5bn). Jewelry (ex-bullion) grew 77% (2-yr CAGR for Q2/H1FY22: 34/11%). Adj. GM is estimated to have improved to 25% (up ~440bps YoY; HSIE: 26%), courtesy (1) improving studded ratio; (2) normalising gold coin sales in jewelry; and (3) a better product mix in non-jewelry segments. Better- than-expected cost controls aided EBITDAM (12.9% vs HSIE: 11.2%). Non- jewelry virtually restored pre-pandemic sales levels in Q2 and surprised on profitability too. It increases FY23/24 EPS estimates by 4-5% to account for lower cost of retailing. Our DCF-based target price stands revised to INR 1,700/sh (earlier INR1,600/sh), implying 50x Dec-23 P/E.
