In the quarterly update on how business has been, Titan last month informed investors that recovery in the jewellery segment has been better than expected. In its quarterly update, Titan said that revenues in the months of May and June were slightly below 20% and 70% when compared to the corresponding months of the previous year. “The recovery has been better than originally envisaged on the back of higher share of wedding jewellery sales, good sales coming from GHS scheme, and investment-led demand leading to higher gold coin sales,” the Tata Group company had said. Store re-opening has been better in non-metro cities for Titan due to the lower impact of the pandemic.
