“Go Fashion’s standalone Q3 6.2/3.3/3.9% y/y growth in sales/EBITDA/ PAT was anaemic but decent in the context of the weak demand situation. SSSG/SCSG was flat/4.8%. The gross margin rose 264bps y/y to 64.1%, led largely by low-cost inventory (but also by the favourable product mix and higher EBO sales). Higher expenses, though, squeezed the EBITDA margin 91bps y/y,” the brokerage firm said.

The fashion company added a net of 61 new stores, bringing the total store count to 775 stores. For the full year FY25, the company plans to do a total of 80-90 net additions. Going forward it plans to add between 120 - 150 stores per year.
