AI summary

Saraswati Saree Depot (SSDL), a leading organized saree wholesaler, reported Q1 FY26 revenue of ₹144.77 crore, up 11.1% year-on-year, driven by higher volumes and increased wallet share from existing customers. EBITDA grew 14.4% to ₹8.98 crore with margins improving to 6.20% from 6.01% in the same quarter last year. Profit after tax rose 4.1% to ₹6.35 crore, though PAT margin slipped slightly to 4.39% from 4.65% due to higher depreciation and interest expenses under Ind AS 116 (operating lease accounting). The company launched its first exclusive retail outlet in Kolhapur on June 1, 2025, targeting a 20% RoCE, and started a pilot in men's ethnic wear ahead of the festive season.

Likely market impact

Operational momentum is positive with double-digit revenue growth and expanding EBITDA margins, though reported PAT growth is muted due to accounting-driven cost changes. The retail expansion and men's ethnic wear pilot signal future growth levers, but execution and margin trajectory in the new retail format will be key things for investors to watch.
