Additionally, there was a strong same-store sales growth (SSSG) of 23%, with the southern regions performing particularly well at 25%. The festive season leading up to Diwali also contributed significantly, with the company achieving over 20% SSSG during a comparable 30-day period.

Revenue from studded jewelry increased by 45%, surpassing the growth in gold revenue, and the studded segment's share increased to 30% from 28% in the same quarter last year.
