Key Questions Answered

Metro Brands reported a 9.8% year-on-year increase in consolidated net profit to ₹76 crore for the September quarter of FY27, up from ₹69 crore the previous year. Meanwhile, revenue from operations grew by 12.2% to reach ₹730 crore compared to ₹651 crore in the year-ago quarter.

The shift in the festive calendar caused September festive sales from last year to move into October this year, which pushed a larger share of consumer demand into the December quarter and resulted in modest growth for Q2.

During the September quarter, Metro Brands opened 21 new stores and closed 9, bringing its total retail network to 1,053 stores spread across 223 cities and 31 states and Union Territories.
