Robust Q4 Earnings

The stock reaction followed a business update filed on 3 April. During Q4 FY26:

The company’s standalone revenue from operations rose 19% year-on-year to ₹17,204.50 crore.
It is an 18.9% year-on-year (YoY) increase from ₹14,462.39 crore in Q4 FY25.

Expansion Gains Pace

Store expansion picked up sharply during the quarter. The company added 58 stores in Q4FY26, its highest ever in a single quarter. This took the total additions for the full FY26 to 85 stores, also a record.

The total store count reached 500 as of 31 March 2026. This milestone reflects a faster rollout compared to earlier years.

Sequential And Historical Trend

The latest revenue figure continues a steady upward trend in quarterly sales (see table):


Q4 FY24	₹12,393.46 crore
Q4 FY25	₹14,462.39 crore

The step-up in Q4FY26 comes after a slower growth phase in the previous quarter. The acceleration in revenue, along with faster store additions, appears to have supported investor sentiment in early trade.
