International Gemological Institute Limited Q1 FY27
What went well
- Consolidated revenue grew 23% YoY to INR 3,708 million, driven by strong volume growth of 17%.
- Consolidated EBITDA grew 29% YoY to INR 2,238 million, with margins expanding 270 bps to 60.4%.
- Consolidated PAT increased 31% YoY to INR 1,657 million, with PAT margins improving 260 bps to 44.7%.
What to watch
- Standalone EBITDA margins (68.8%) were lower than previous year due to commission payouts to other geographies and front-loaded marketing spends.
- Sequential decline in consolidated EBITDA was largely due to the seasonally strong fourth quarter, not a structural issue.
