- Shoppers Stop’s sales have also grown by 34% in the festive season of October to December.
The Indian department store chain — which sells everything from apparel to cosmetics — reported a consolidated revenue of ₹972 crore for the December quarter (Q3 of fiscal year 2022). Its profit also went up to ₹77 crore from ₹25 crore loss in the same quarter a year ago.
The company noted that their return to “profitability” comes with zero net debt.
"We are witnessing positive signs from a strategy that we initiated in the last 2 years. As the fashion and beauty retail is seeing encouraging early trends from the Wardrobe Reboot, we are rightly poised to capture the pent-up demand," Venu Nair, the managing director and chief executive (CEO) of Shoppers Stop, said.
He also mentioned that the customer sentiment is positive due to the double vaccinations, fewer COVID-19 related restrictions and an overall improvement in safety protocols.
Shoppers Stop’s sales have also grown by 34%, compared to last year, in the festive season of October to December.
The average transaction value (ATV) — average amount that a consumer spends in a single transaction — increased by over ₹500 in the last one year. Meanwhile, the company’s average selling price (ASP) increased to nearly ₹1,500.
