₹3,067.1 cr Annual revenue for FY26, a 63% increase over the prior year.

What's new

  • Annual revenue reached ₹3,067.1 crore, up 63% year-on-year.
  • Net profit climbed to ₹162.1 crore, more than doubling from the previous year.
  • The company added 136 stores, reaching a total network of 325 locations.

Why this matters

V2 Retail is scaling rapidly, using a ₹400 crore QIP to fund an expansion that has pushed its footprint into 25 states. Maintaining 8.6% same-store sales growth while increasing the store count by over 70% is a difficult balance. The company is proving it can grow its top line and its margins simultaneously.

What we're watching

  • Whether the pace of store additions continues into FY27.
  • Sustainability of the 8.6% same-store sales growth as the network matures.
  • Utilization of the ₹400 crore raised via QIP.

The full read

V2 Retail closed FY26 with ₹3,067.1 crore in revenue, a 63% increase reflecting the company's push into the value fashion market. Net profit followed suit, more than doubling to ₹162.1 crore. The growth is not organic alone; the company added 136 new stores during the year, bringing its total footprint to 325 locations. Despite this rapid expansion, same-store sales growth held steady at 8.6%. To fuel this, the company tapped institutional investors for ₹400 crore via a QIP. The numbers are clear.
