Jewellery stock hits record despite profit-booking trigger on Dalal Street

Utssav CZ Gold Jewels share price surged 5% on Tuesday, 26 May, to touch a record high of ₹303.80 apiece on the NSE, after the company reported strong growth in revenue and profitability for both the second half and full financial year FY26.

The jewellery maker posted total income of ₹681 crore in H2 FY26, marking a 87.8% year-on-year increase, while EBITDA nearly doubled to ₹48.67 crore, with margins improving by 40 basis points to 7.15%. Net profit rose 95.2% YoY to ₹29.64 crore, supported by healthy demand during the festive and wedding seasons.

For the full year FY26, the company reported total income of ₹1,157.46 crore, up 78.7% year-on-year. EBITDA jumped 132.3% to ₹93.7 crore, while EBITDA margin expanded by 187 basis points to 8.1%. Profit after tax surged 135.7% to ₹59.06 crore, with earnings per share rising 105.9% to ₹23.95.

Commenting on the performance, Pankajkumar Jagawat said the company's strong growth was driven by robust festive and wedding-season demand, repeat business from existing customers, and the addition of 112 new clients during the year.

He added that Utssav strengthened its product portfolio through higher contributions from natural diamond jewellery and the launch of new product lines in plain gold and lab-grown diamonds, which improved the product mix and realisations. The company also incorporated a wholly owned subsidiary in the UAE, a move expected to enhance trade efficiencies and support international expansion.

Despite volatility in gold prices, the company maintained strong operational performance through its focus on lightweight jewellery designs, efficient inventory management, and customer-centric innovation. Management remains optimistic about future growth, citing strong retailer relationships, expanding B2B reach, deeper market penetration, and integrated manufacturing and design capabilities as key drivers for sustained growth.

Utssav CZ Gold Jewels share price today opened at ₹290.20 apiece on the NSE, the stock touched an intraday high of ₹303.80 apiece, and an intraday low of ₹285.45 per share.

During Tuesday's session, the stock also touched a fresh all-time high of ₹303.80, reflecting continued buying interest.

However, he cautioned investors against taking aggressive positions given the stock's relatively low trading volume and limited market participation. On the downside, ₹260 is expected to act as a key immediate support level.
