RESULTS CONTEXT
❖ Our agenda has been to drive material reach and share of revenues across key markets. Further, we are upgrading the quality of our store portfolio and are consciously increasing the density of our presence across markets. Our approach towards selectively consolidating some of our stores is primarily aimed at enhancing quality of presence and improving customer experience.
❖ We are also adding presence in newer cities across tier 2 / 3 markets, as well as emerging catchments in the proximity of metro cities. Many of these markets are still evolving in terms of adoption of fashion trends and density of consumption. These markets afford substantial opportunities and at the same time we expect them to mature over differing time horizons. Hence, the revenue profile and the growth trajectory of such stores may not be entirely comparable with that of the existing portfolio.
❖ Like for like growth for our fashion portfolio in Q2FY26 was in low single digits. The emerging categories, including beauty & personal care, innerwear and footwear contribute to over 21% of our revenues. Westside.com together with our proposition on the Tata Neu platform continues to witness traction and grow profitably. In Q2FY26, online revenues grew by 56% and contributed to over 6% of Westside revenues. Westside online is a unique convenience proposition and is entirely consistent with the approach adopted by the brand in stores, in terms of the product proposition as well as disciplines around pricing, end of season sale and returns. Amongst standalone brands, Westside today registers some of the highest volumes online vis-à-vis comparative players in the Indian market.
❖ The consumer sentiment in the second quarter was relatively muted and we also witnessed headwinds given unseasonal rains. The quarter also saw the transition to the new GST regime. Initially, the customers appear to have prioritized purchase of bigger ticket products with higher GST reduction benefits. Nevertheless, over the medium term we believe demand traction would also be aided for small ticket discretionary lifestyle categories.

RESULTS CONTEXT
❖ Investments in technology and automation across multiple areas in the recent years has aided in delivery of stable operating economics. For instance, our investments in pan network RFID technology has unlocked layers of productivity across key supply chain processes and in our stores. Aided by multiple of these technology/ automation investments, we have witnessed material optimization in manpower requirements across the portfolio. Consequently, the growth in our manpower cost has been relatively contained.
❖ We continue to actively invest and pursue various automation/ optimization interventions across our value chain. We believe these interventions across a whole gamut of operations from product design, logistics, warehousing and store operations would be key to facilitate optimal management of growing scale and driving productivity outcomes.
❖ In the recent years, we have sought to manage operating leverage by aligning certain of the costs to be variable alongside store revenues. Incidentally, some of our occupancy costs including store rentals and fees to business associates have variable payout structures. The reported occupancy cost incorporates impact of IND AS 116 lease accounting. Excluding the IND AS 116 impacts, the underlying occupancy costs remain broadly consistent with the revenue profile across all reporting periods. Separately, the maturity profile of newer stores has implications for increased depreciation relative to revenues and consequently operating EBITDA is a relevant metric.
❖ We prefer to retain operating control of our stores and the ownership of merchandise at all times. Our approach to franchising has been selective given diverse objectives and primarily related to properties. Our preferred operating model is more akin to being ‘Company-Owned and Company-Operated’.
