What they do

BlueStone is an omnichannel jewellery brand focused on lifestyle purchases beyond weddings

What happened

It reported FY26 net profit of ₹26 Cr, its first annual profit, versus a loss of ₹219.2 Cr a year ago

Why it matters

The profit came from operating leverage, not cost-cutting, as revenue grew 38% to ₹2,441.2 Cr

The details

  • BlueStone launched its IPO in August 2025.
  • On listing day, shares opened at a discount — ₹508.8 on BSE and ₹510 on NSE, below the issue price of ₹517.
  • For FY26, BlueStone reported an operating revenue of ₹2,441.2 Cr, up 38% year-on-year.
  • It posted a net profit of ₹26 Cr for FY26, its first annual profit, compared to a loss of ₹219.2 Cr in FY25.
  • In Q4 FY26, net profit was ₹31.2 Cr, down 55% from Q3 FY26's profit of ₹68.9 Cr due to high ESOP (employee stock option) expenses.
  • The company's net loss in FY25 was ₹221.8 Cr, up 56% from the previous year.
  • CEO Gaurav Singh Kushwaha attributed the FY26 profit to operating leverage, not cost-cutting or restructuring.

The bigger picture

  • Nuvama highlighted store expansion and improving unit economics as key growth drivers.
  • JM Financial estimates the domestic jewellery market could expand from ~$75 Bn to $130-$140 Bn by 2029.
