Executive brief · today

Titan's 33% FY26 revenue surge to ₹76,078 crore proves wedding demand can outrun record gold, but CFO Sonthalia warns margins hinge on where bullion goes next. Quick commerce is visibly normalizing — Blinkit slowed to 8% QoQ, Instamart shrank, and Swiggy is now chasing breakeven over growth — just as Zepto clears SEBI for a $1 billion IPO. Meanwhile, physical retail is back: 2,182 store openings led by Reliance and DMart, with ECCO, Bata and Starbucks Reserve all pushing into Tier-2 and the East. The signal to read: offline is funding the next leg of consumption while online rationalizes.

No, it's normalising. Blinkit's Q4 net order value grew just 8% QoQ to ₹14,386 crore, down from 13%, while Instamart's GOV actually shrank to ₹7,881 crore. Eternal blamed competition from Zepto, Flipkart, Amazon Now and BigBasket.

Q.05 theme

How fast are retailers opening stores in India?

Q.06 brand

What's ECCO's India expansion plan?

ECCO will grow from 9 to 20 stores by year-end and 50 by 2028, a 5x jump, backed by nearly 80 multi-brand points of sale. With pairs priced ₹10,000-20,000, it expects 80% of sales from the top eight metros and is skipping quick commerce.
