Titan Company Limited reported strong double-digit revenue growth in the first quarter of FY 2025-26, driven by a broad-based performance across its core businesses, despite a high base from the previous year and macroeconomic headwinds, including volatile gold prices.
The company’s flagship jewellery division registered a 19% year-on-year growth in the first quarter of FY26, driven by positive consumer sentiment, robust Akshaya Tritiya sales, and continued traction in new store openings. Titan’s exclusive jewellery brands—Tanishq, Mia, Zoya, and CaratLane—continued their strong performance, with consistent customer walk-ins and healthy demand for both wedding and occasion wear.
The watches and wearables division achieved 22% year-over-year revenue growth, driven by new launches, compelling designs, and category expansion in wearables. Titan noted an increase in market share in the segment, aided by digital and retail channel expansion.
Titan’s eyecare business and emerging categories, such as fragrances, sarees (under Taneira), and fashion accessories, also posted healthy year-on-year growth, demonstrating increasing customer acceptance of the brand’s lifestyle positioning—with the eyecare business growing 12% and the emerging businesses jumping 26% year-on-year.

In the world’s youngest nation—where over 65% of the population is under 35—India’s future is already being shaped by those bold enough to lead it. From boardrooms to breakout ideas, a new generation of business leaders is rewriting the rules. This year's Fortune India’s 40 Under 40 celebrates these changemakers—icons in the making like Akash Ambani, Kaviya Kalanithi Maran, Shashwat Goenka, Parth Jindal, Aman Mehta, and Devansh Jain—who are not just carrying forward legacies but boldly reimagining them for a new era. Alongside them are first-generation disruptors like Sagar Daryani, scaling Wow! Momo with a vision to take ₹100 momos to 5,000 cities, and Palak Shah, turning the Banarasi weave into a global fashion story with Ekaya Banaras. These are the entrepreneurs turning ambition into scale. And even beyond traditional industry, the entrepreneurial wave is pulling in creative forces—Ranveer Singh, for instance, is shaking up wellness and nutrition with Bold Care and SuperYou, proving that passion, backed by purpose, is the new blueprint for building brands.
Across segments, the company continued its retail network expansion, adding over 90 new stores in the first quarter alone. This aggressive retail growth was aligned with Titan’s ambition to deepen its presence across Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities.
The company, part of the Tata Group, stated that it maintained a focus on enhancing customer experience through digital innovations and omnichannel initiatives, while navigating macroeconomic pressures, such as gold price volatility, with prudent inventory and pricing strategies.
Titan also reaffirmed its commitment to long-term brand building and sustainable business practices. The performance in the first quarter sets a positive tone for the remainder of FY26 as the company gears up for the festive and wedding seasons.
