FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Prospectus contains certain “forward-looking statements”. These forward-looking statements include

statements with respect to our business strategy, our plans, prospects, goals and our projects. Bidders can

generally identify forward-looking statements by words or phrases such as “aim”, “anticipate”, “believe”,

“expect”, “estimate”, “intend”, “objective”, “plan”, “propose”, “project”, “shall”, “will”, “will continue”, “will

pursue” or other words or phrases of similar import. Similarly, statements that describe our Company’s

strategies, objectives, plans, prospects or goals are also forward-looking statements. All forward-looking

statements (whether made by us or any third party) are subject to risks, uncertainties, expectations, and

assumptions about us that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the relevant

forward-looking statement.

Forward looking statements reflect our current views with respect to future events as of the date of this

Prospectus and are not a guarantee of future performance. These statements are based on our management’s

beliefs and assumptions, which in turn are based on currently available information. Although we believe the

assumptions upon which these forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, any of these assumptions

could prove to be inaccurate, and the forward-looking statements based on these assumptions could be incorrect.

Further, the actual results may differ materially from those suggested by forward-looking statements due to risks

or uncertainties associated with our expectations with respect to, but not limited to, regulatory changes pertaining

to the industry in which we operate and our ability to respond to them, our ability to successfully implement our

strategy, our growth and expansion, technological changes, our exposure to market risks, general economic and

political conditions in India, which have an impact on our business activities or investments, the monetary and

fiscal policies of India, inflation, deflation, unanticipated turbulence in interest rates, foreign exchange rates,

equity prices or other rates or prices, the performance of the financial markets in India and globally, changes in

domestic laws, regulations and taxes and changes in competition in our industry and incidence of any natural

calamities and/or acts of violence. Certain important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially

from our expectations include, but are not limited to, the following:

1. Any inability to maintain and develop our brands;

2. Any inability to mitigate the effects of any disruptions due to recent outbreak of novel coronavirus;

3. Any inability to respond to changes in consumer demands and market trends in a timely manner;

4. Any inability to maintain existing and/or establish new arrangements with contract manufacturers

through whom we manufacture our products;

5. Any inability in maintaining visibility of our showrooms;

6. Any potential challenge to our ownership structure(s) in the Gulf Cooperation Council states where we

operate based on an allegation that we have contravened foreign investment laws;

7. Succession risks in respect of the nominee shareholder arrangements we have entered into with natural

persons;

8. Exposure to the risk of the legal provisions with respect to documenting board and shareholders’

meetings being enforced on one or more of our operations in Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman, Qatar or the UAE

and certain penalties being imposed by the local authorities;

9. Inability to comply conditions and restrictions on our operations, additional financing and capital

structure under agreements governing our indebtedness; and

10. Any adverse decision in the certain legal proceedings and potential litigation involving our Company,

Subsidiaries, Promoters and Directors.

For further discussion on factors that could cause our actual results to differ from expectations, see “Risk

Factors”, “Our Business” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of

Operations” on pages 25, 135 and 366, respectively. By their nature, certain market risk related disclosures are

24

only estimates and could be materially different from what actually occurs in the future. As a result, actual gains

or losses could materially differ from those that have been estimated.

We cannot assure Bidders that the expectation reflected in these forward-looking statements will prove to be

correct. Given these uncertainties, Bidders are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking

statements and not to regard such statements as a guarantee of future performance.

Our Company, the Selling Shareholders, the Directors, the Lead Managers and their respective affiliates or

associates do not have any obligation to, and do not intend to, update or otherwise revise any statements

reflecting circumstances arising after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of underlying events, even if the

underlying assumptions do not come to fruition. In accordance with the SEBI requirements, our Company and

the Lead Managers will ensure that Bidders in India are informed of material developments until the such time as

the grant of listing and trading permissions by the Stock Exchanges for the Offer. Each Selling Shareholder

(severally and not jointly) will ensure that Bidders in India are informed of material developments solely in

relation to the statements and undertakings specifically confirmed or undertaken (severally and not jointly) by

such Selling Shareholder in relation to itself or its portion of the Offered Shares in the Red Herring Prospectus

and this Prospectus until the receipt of final listing and trading approvals for the Equity Shares from the Stock

Exchanges.

25

SECTION II: RISK FACTORS

An investment in the Equity Shares involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider all of the

information in the Red Herring Prospectus and this Prospectus, including the risks and uncertainties described

below, before making an investment in the Equity Shares. In making an investment decision, you must rely on

your own examination of our Company and the terms of the Offer, including the risks involved, and you should

consult your tax, financial and legal advisors about the particular consequences to you of an investment in the

Equity Shares.

We have described the risks and uncertainties that our management believes are material, but these risks and

uncertainties are not the only risks we face. If any or a combination of the following risks actually occur, or if

any of the risks that are currently not known or deemed to be not relevant or material now actually occur or

become material in the future, our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations could suffer,

the trading price of the Equity Shares could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment. To obtain a

more detailed understanding of our business and operations, please read this section in conjunction with the

sections titled “Our Business” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results

of Operations” on pages 135 and 366, respectively, as well as other information contained in this Prospectus.

You should pay particular attention to the fact that our Company is incorporated under the laws of India and has

operations in certain Middle East countries and, is subject to a legal and regulatory environment, which in some

material respects may be different from that which prevails in other countries.

This Prospectus also contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results

could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors,

including the considerations described below and elsewhere in this Prospectus. For details, see “Forward-

Looking Statements” on page 23.

Unless otherwise indicated, all financial information included herein are based on our Restated Consolidated

Financial Information included elsewhere in this Prospectus.

Internal Risks Related to Our Business

1. The strength of our brands is crucial to our success and we may not succeed in continuing to maintain

and develop our brands.

We consider our “Kalyan Jewellers” brand and other sub-brands to be very important for our business. Our

business and results of operations are influenced by the strength of our brands, including the level of consumer

recognition and perception of our brands. The strength of our brands depends on factors such as our growth, our

product designs, the materials used to make our products, the quality of our products, the distinct character and

presentation of our products as well as the presentation and layout of our showrooms. Public communication

activities such as advertising, public relations and marketing as well as the general perception of our business

also impact our brands. Failure to manage any of the above factors or failure of our promotion and other

activities to differentiate and further strengthen our brands could adversely affect the value and perception of our

brands and our ability to maintain existing customers and attract new customers, and, as a result, have a material

adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Due to the competitive nature of the market in which we operate, if we do not continue to develop our brands and

products, we may fail to attract customers required to continue growing our business. Developing, promoting and

positioning our brands will depend largely on the success of our marketing and merchandising efforts, the

relationships we have with our customers and our ability to provide a consistent, high quality experience for our

customers. In particular, we may face brand dilution to the extent we fail to develop, promote and position our

brands effectively and consistently with respect to new products or any new product categories. To promote our

brands and products, we have incurred, and expect to continue to incur, substantial expenses related to

advertising and other marketing efforts, including celebrity endorsements, magazine and television advertising,

sponsorships, public relations events, outdoor marketing and producing brochures. Our expenses for advertising

and other marketing efforts represented 2.79%, 3.04%, 2.93%, 2.07% and 2.68% of our total revenue from

operations for Fiscals 2020, 2019 and 2018, and for the nine months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019,

respectively. However, there can be no assurance that our advertising or marketing efforts are or will be

successful and result in increased sales. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that our marketing efforts will

succeed in maintaining our brand and its perception with customers.

26

A critical component of our brand promotion strategy is maintaining the quality of our products and of the

experience customers associate with our brands. Our ability to provide a high quality experience for our

customers depends on internal and external factors, such as, the reliability and performance of the contract

manufacturers who produce our jewellery and our employees and staff at our showrooms and “My Kalyan”

centres. We rely on our staff at our “My Kalyan” centres and our showrooms to promote and sell our products in

an environment that is consistent with the perception and reputation of our brands. Any failure to maintain our

uniform company standards and brand positioning could damage the market perception of our brands and could

have a negative impact on the experience of our customers, which in turn could adversely impact our reputation,

results of operations and business operations.

2. The recent outbreak of the novel coronavirus could have a significant effect on our results of operations,

and could negatively impact our business, revenues, financial condition and results of operations.

An outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus disease 19 (“COVID-19”), was recognised as a pandemic by the

World Health Organization (“WHO”), on March 11, 2020. In response to the COVID-19 outbreak, the

governments of many countries, including India and in the Middle East have taken preventive or protective

actions, such as imposing country-wide lockdowns, restrictions on travel and business operations and advising or

requiring individuals to limit their time outside of their homes. Temporary closures of businesses had been

ordered and numerous other businesses have temporarily closed voluntarily. Further, individuals' ability to travel

has been curtailed through mandated travel restrictions and may be further limited. Since May 2020 many of

these measures have been lifted.

The COVID-19 outbreak and the related preventive and protective actions had impacted our business through the

temporary closure of all our showrooms and “My Kalyan” centres. For example, because of a government

mandated lockdown we had to temporarily close all of our showrooms, manufacturing facilities and procurement

centres in India and in the Middle East and “My Kalyan” centres in India for approximately two months between

March 2020 to May 2020. As a result, there was no customer traffic to our showrooms in India and the Middle

East, which significantly reduced our sales and cash flows during the period. There was also a delay in

collections of the monthly instalments under our purchase advance schemes during the lockdown period,

particularly from customers who make cash remittances through our “My Kalyan” employees.

If we do not respond appropriately to the pandemic, or if customers do not perceive our response to be adequate

for a particular region or our Company as a whole, we could suffer damage to our reputation and our brand,

which could adversely affect our business in the future. In order to reduce the impact of COVID-19 on our

operations, we have taken various steps to manage our expenses and liquidity, including reducing our marketing

expenses; seeking partial rent waivers and discounts under most of our lease agreements for our showrooms,

“My Kalyan” centres and offices; temporarily reducing the cash compensation of senior executives; and reducing

our administrative overhead costs. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the RBI allowed banks and lending

institutions to offer moratoriums to their customers to defer payments under loans for a few months. We availed

a moratorium offered by the RBI to defer payments under a few loan agreements and also proactively availed

facilities aggregating up to ₹1,570 million from Indian Overseas Bank, State Bank of India and Bank of Baroda

to manage COVID-19 related exigencies. Any failure to receive the rent waivers, payment deferrals from our

suppliers or moratoriums from lenders could increase our expenses and adversely impact our cash flows. The

COVID-19 pandemic may cause additional disruptions to operations if our employees or staff become sick, are

quarantined, or are otherwise limited in their ability to travel or work at our showrooms and “My Kalyan”

centres. To contain the spread of the virus, we may be required to implement staggered shifts and other social

distancing efforts at our offices, showrooms, “My Kalyan” centers and our manufacturing units, which could

result in labour shortages and decreased productivity. These supply chain effects may negatively affect our

ability to meet consumer demand and may increase our costs of production and sales, and increase the price of

raw materials or components, such as, gold, and impact their availability in a timely manner. All of the foregoing

developments may have a significant effect on our results of operations and on our financial results. Although we

have implemented risk management and contingency plans and taken preventive measures and other precautions,

our efforts to mitigate the effects of any disruptions may prove to be inadequate.

While wedding-related jewellery, our highest sold product category, is expected to remain resilient despite the

pandemic, according to the Technopak Report, our business is also sensitive to reductions in consumer spending.

We cannot predict the degree to, or the time period over, which our business will be affected by the COVID-19

outbreak. For example, this pandemic could necessitate further lockdowns, resulting in significant additional

effects on our revenue, financial condition and results of operations. There are numerous uncertainties associated

with the COVID-19 outbreak, including the number of individuals who will become infected, availability of a

cure that mitigates the effect of the virus, the extent of the protective and preventative measures imposed by

27

governments and whether the virus' impact will be seasonal, among others. Consequently, there may be adverse

effects of this pandemic on our short-term business operations and our financial results may be impacted.

3. We may be unable to respond to changes in consumer demands and market trends in a timely manner.

Our success depends on our ability to identify, originate and define product and market trends, both on a pan-

India, international and more local level, as well as to anticipate, gauge and react to rapidly changing consumer

demands in a timely manner. Our products must also appeal to a broad range of customers whose preferences

may vary significantly across regions and cannot be predicted with certainty. We cannot assure you that the

demand for our products with end-consumers will continue to grow or that we will be able to continue to develop

appealing styles or meet rapidly changing consumer demands in the future. If we misjudge the market for our

jewellery products or fail to anticipate a shift in consumer preferences, we may be faced with a reduction in

revenues. According to the Technopak Report, approximately 70% of the Indian jewellery market was served by

unorganised jewellery companies catering to local tastes in Fiscal 2020. We also enter into contracts with local

contract manufacturers to make such jewellery. If we are unable to attract sufficient demand for our more

localised jewellery products or identify contract manufacturers to make jewellery which is appealing to the local

population, our business may suffer.

Customer preferences regarding diamonds, gold and other precious metals and gemstones also influence the level

of our sales. Customer preferences could be affected by a variety of issues, including promotion of specific types

of jewellery by the fashion industry, such as the promotion of silver over traditional gold jewellery, a decrease in

the perceived value and customer satisfaction of the jewellery compared to its price, the availability of alternate

metals and consumer attitudes towards the substitution of our products with products such as cubic zirconia,

moissanite or laboratory-created diamonds or a shift in customer preference to other luxury products.

Any inability to respond to changes in consumer demands and market trends in a timely manner could have a

material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

4. We may be unable to maintain or establish arrangements with contract manufacturers and suppliers

through whom we manufacture our products and procure raw materials, and may experience other

disruptions or quality control risks in the operations of such parties.

We manufacture our products through our network of contract manufacturers and procure raw materials through

suppliers. While we have written agreements with our contract manufacturers, they are not contractually bound

to deal with us exclusively, and we may face the risk of our competitors offering better terms, which may cause

them to prefer our competitors over us. We control the manufacturing process and the ultimate risk of the raw

materials lies with us. However, our arrangements with these contract manufacturers and suppliers could involve

various risks, including potential interruption to their operations for factors beyond their or our control, any

significant adverse changes in their financial or business condition, as well as low levels of output, quality or

efficiency. Any disruption in the operations of these contract manufacturers or suppliers could have an adverse

impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

In addition, while we exercise significant influence over the entire manufacturing process and undertake a

number of quality control procedures to ensure we are selling only quality jewellery to our customers, including

having all of our jewellery Bureau of Indian Standards (“BIS”), hallmarked and conducting sample tests on each

new batch of products we receive from our contract manufacturers, there is no assurance that our quality control

measures will be effective. If we receive negative publicity about the quality of our jewellery or our contract

manufacturers receive negative publicity, our reputation, business and results of operations could be adversely

affected.

5. Our ability to attract customers is dependent on the success and visibility of our showrooms.

We endeavour to open showrooms in optimal locations and generally consider a relevant location’s

demographics, spending capacity, economic conditions, cost-benefit analysis and proximity to our competitors’

showrooms. Sales at our showrooms are derived, in part, from the volume of customer visits in the relevant

locations. Showroom locations may become unsuitable, and our sales volume and customer traffic generally

may be slowed, by, among other things: economic downturns in a particular area; competition from nearby

jewellery companies; changing consumer demographics in a particular market; changing lifestyle choices of

consumers in a particular market; government imposed lockdowns due to pandemics, such as COVID-19; and

the popularity of other businesses located near our showrooms.

28

Given the long-term nature of our leases and our dependence on customers visiting our showrooms, our success

is partially dependent upon the continued popularity of particular locations. Changes in areas around our

showroom locations that result in reductions in customer traffic or otherwise render the locations unsuitable

could result in reduced sales volume, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial

condition and results of operations.

6. Our ownership structure in the Gulf Cooperation Council states where we operate, while consistent with

the approach taken by many other companies operating in the region, is subject to risks associated with

foreign ownership restrictions and our shareholder arrangements with local shareholders.

Overview

A portion of our operations are located in countries in the Gulf Cooperation Council (“GCC”), where we

generated 21.81%, 23.46%, 21.19%, 13.79% and 21.36% of our revenue from operations for Fiscals 2020, 2019

and 2018, and for the nine months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. In Fiscal 2018, the share of

profit after tax from GCC region was 19.27% in our consolidated profit after tax and for Fiscals 2019 and 2020

and for the nine months ended December 31, 2020, we incurred losses in the GCC region. The following table

provides a geographic wise breakdown of our revenue and profit from each GCC country for the periods

indicated.

* Note: Inter company interest is eliminated for consolidation

All of these countries (other than Oman) have foreign ownership laws that provides that nationals of these

countries must hold a certain percentage of the shares of companies incorporated in these countries. Accordingly,

our subsidiaries incorporated in each of the United Arab Emirates (“UAE”), Bahrain, Qatar and Kuwait need to

meet these local ownership requirements. The table below sets out the minimum local legal shareholding

requirements applicable to our subsidiaries in each of the GCC states where we have operations, as well as the

existing local legal shareholding of such subsidiaries.

(1) “Free-zone entities” are the companies which may be 100% owned by expatriates, registered and operating in dedicated free zones,

where a UAE national partner is not required.

(2) “Off-shore entities” are companies which: (i) have their registered address in the UAE but do not operate in the UAE; and (ii) may be

100% owned by expatriates; (iii) are often used as asset, property or holding vehicles for other businesses inside or outside the UAE

(3) “Onshore entities” are companies used to trade within the local UAE market, which require a UAE national to act as an agent or

company shareholder, and are not located in dedicated free-zones.

For further details in relation to the foreign ownership laws applicable in certain GCC states, see “Key

Regulations and Policies” on page 157.

In GCC states which restrict foreign ownership, consistent with the approach taken by many other companies

operating in the region, we have typically entered into shareholder arrangements with local shareholders which

are intended to provide us with management control and a majority of the dividends or profits from our

subsidiary notwithstanding our minority legal shareholding; the local shareholder acts as our nominee which

fulfils the purpose of foreign ownership requirements, is only entitled to an annual fee (irrespective of actual

profits) and is not involved in the subsidiary’s management. We consolidate our minority shareholding in these

subsidiaries in our financial statements on the basis of our shareholder arrangements. For further details

concerning our shareholder arrangements in certain GCC states, see “Key Regulations and Policies – Key

Regulations applicable to our Material Subsidiaries” and “History and Certain Corporate Matters” starting on

pages 161 and 167, respectively.

In many cases, our shareholder arrangements are effected through nominee or trust agreements in the GCC

states, where legal recognition of concepts of trusts or beneficial ownership is uncertain. Moreover, the

enforceability of such arrangements remains subject to applicable local laws of these jurisdictions, for example,

the Proxy Law in Qatar and the Concealment Law in the UAE, and there can be no assurance that we will be able

to continue to exercise control over our subsidiaries in these jurisdictions, if such arrangements are held to be

unenforceable, including on account of these arrangements being interpreted by relevant authorities as contrary

to the spirit of such local laws.

As a result of the nominee and trust arrangements described above, there are a number of provisions for our

protection in the shareholders’ agreements which cannot by law be reflected in the constitutional documents. If

we are unable to enforce our rights as a beneficial shareholder as a result of a conflict between the shareholders’

agreements and the constitutional documents of the companies and local laws provide that the constitutional

documents prevail, our inability to enforce the shareholders’ agreements may adversely affect our business and

results of operations.

Whether initiated by a regulator or in a dispute with a local nominee shareholder, these shareholder arrangements

may be held to violate local law, the penalties for which could include criminal sanctions against us, the closure

of our business in the relevant country, fines or the disgorgement of profits, such as an order to pay a local

nominee shareholder the dividend entitlement contained in the relevant constitutional documents with

retrospective effect. In the event of a dispute with our local shareholders, our shareholder arrangements may be

void if they violate local law, which could reduce our corporate and economic rights in the affected subsidiary to

that of a minority shareholder. Any potential challenge to our ownership structure based on an allegation that we

have contravened foreign investment laws is likely to be made public, which could have an adverse effect on our

relationship with regulatory authorities and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial

condition and results of operations.

UAE

Historically, UAE law contained local ownership requirements that applied to a number of businesses registered

and operating in the UAE, stating that nationals of the UAE must, directly or indirectly, be the legal/registered

owners of at least 51% of the share capital of UAE companies and foreign investors could not acquire or

subscribe to more than 49% of such share capital. On 30 September 2020, the a decree was passed to abolish the

local ownership requirements effective from 1 April 2021, however, a reference to a committee was made, which

shall be formed by a resolution of the Federal Cabinet of the UAE, and shall be authorised to formulate a list of

businesses that are of strategic importance to the UAE economy which will require a certain threshold of

ownership by UAE nationals (natural or legal). Given that the committee has yet to be formed, therefore, our

UAE subsidiary, Kalyan Jewellers LLC, UAE (the “UAE Subsidiary”), in the UAE (which is directly held by

our wholly-owned subsidiary, Kalyan Jewellers FZE, UAE, a free zone company (the “UAE FZE Subsidiary”))

will be considered a strategic business under the UAE Decree and the UAE FZE Subsidiary will be entitled to

own 100% share capital in the UAE Subsidiary.

30

Since local law pre-April 2021, does not allow us to hold legal/ registered title to more than 49% of the shares in

the UAE Subsidiary, in order to secure beneficial ownership of our UAE operations above the UAE foreign

ownership restriction threshold, we have adopted the approach taken by many foreign-owned companies

operating in the UAE by implementing commonly used nominee arrangements whereby the UAE FZE

Subsidiary holds 49% of the share capital of our UAE Subsidiary and the remaining 51% is held by a UAE

national for our benefit.

Our ownership structure for our subsidiaries incorporated in the UAE could be unilaterally challenged before a

UAE court on the basis of the UAE Federal Law no. 17 of 2004 in respect of the Commercial Concealment (the

“Concealment Law”) or other general public policy-related provisions under other UAE legislation, under

which a UAE court could decide that our ownership structure for the UAE Subsidiary violates public policy,

morals or law in the UAE. The Concealment Law provides that it is not permissible to allow a non-UAE

national, whether by using the name of another individual or through any other method, to practice any economic

or professional activity that is not permissible for him to practice in accordance with the law and decrees of the

UAE, which could prohibit foreign ownership of a UAE company through arrangements such as those used in

our ownership structure for the UAE Subsidiary. Despite its use, the legality and enforceability of nominee

arrangements such as ours remains the subject of much debate and legislative scrutiny, and there is a degree of

uncertainty as to how the relevant provisions of the new UAE Commercial Companies Law, which came into

effect on July 1, 2015, will be interpreted. We are not aware of the nominee or trust arrangements, such as those

used in our ownership structure for our UAE entities, having been challenged by the Government of the UAE or

any Emirate thereof. However, as the Concealment Law is binding law, the UAE Federal Government has the

ability to enforce the Concealment Law at any time in the future. Were the UAE Government to do so, there is

no certainty as to the approach that the UAE courts would take in relation to the application of the Concealment

Law or other laws or policies to our ownership structure for the UAE Subsidiary.

There could be a number of adverse implications for us if our nominee arrangements and ownership structure for

the UAE Subsidiary were to be successfully challenged or an enforcement action initiated, including our

beneficial ownership through the trust and sponsorship arrangements being deemed void, which could result in a

loss of revenues from the UAE Subsidiary if we can no longer receive profits disproportionate to our

shareholding as provided under the constitutional documents of the UAE Subsidiary or it can no longer be

consolidated, the loss of our option to acquire the shares of the UAE nominee shareholder and the loss of our

right to be appointed as a proxy for the UAE nominee shareholder during shareholder meetings, the loss of our

ability to prevent the UAE sponsor nominee shareholder from selling or transferring its 51% shareholding or the

imposition of material fines. The imposition of one or more of such penalties could have a material adverse

effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Alternatively, and although the risk of such

circumstances occurring is low, should the local courts not find our UAE ownership structure valid in relation to

the UAE Subsidiary, a successful challenge of our UAE ownership structure could result in our having to pay

back 20% (as per the constitutional documents of the UAE Subsidiary) of the overall dividend entitlement

derived from our UAE Subsidiary’s operation to our local partner, possibly with retrospective effect.

Kuwait, Oman, Bahrain and Qatar

Given foreign ownership requirements, we have adopted an approach taken by many foreign-owned companies

operating in Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman and Qatar by implementing nominee arrangements resulting in 51% of the

shares of our Bahraini subsidiary, Kalyan Jewellers Bahrain WLL, Bahrain, being owned by a Emirati nominee

shareholder; 51% of the shares of our Kuwaiti subsidiary, Kalyan Jewelry For Gold Jewelry Company, W.L.L.,

Kuwait, being owned by a Kuwaiti nominee shareholder, and 51% of the shares of our Qatari subsidiary, Kalyan

Jewellers LLC, Qatar, being owned by a Qatari nominee shareholder. However, our structure, although not

uncommon in practice in these countries, is designed to create compliance with local foreign ownership rules,

and as such, these nominee arrangements are generally deemed unenforceable. In the event that we need to

enforce our contractual rights against the local nominee shareholders before local courts, it may be difficult for

us to enforce such ownership rights beyond the 49% ownership allowed under the law in Bahrain; 49%

ownership allowed under the law in Qatar (unless approval is obtained for ownership of more than 49% under

the new Foreign Investment Law) and Kuwait.

The new foreign investment law of Oman that was passed under Royal Decree 50/2019 (“Oman Foreign

Investment Law”) and which came into effect in January 2020 and Ministerial Decision No. 72 of 2020 issuing

the Executive Regulations of the Foreign Capital Investment Law (“Executive Regulations”) permit foreign-

owned companies to conduct certain business activities in Oman without requiring a local shareholder. The

Oman Foreign Investment Law provides that foreign-owned companies that are currently not conducting

31

business in one of seventy restricted sectors (“Negative List”) stated in the Executive Regulations are entitled to

conduct their business without a local partner and can accordingly own 100% of the shares of their business. The

Negative List does not make reference to the business activities conducted by our company in Oman. Subject to

the Oman Foreign Investment Law and Executive Regulations, the UAE FZE Subsidiary would be allowed to

own 100% of our Oman subsidiary, Kalyan Jewellers L.L.C., Oman.

Under a shareholders’ agreement entered into between our UAE FZE Subsidiary and the Omani nominee

shareholder, we are entitled to beneficial ownership of the 30% shareholding held by the nominee shareholder

and all dividend entitlements to such shares. If the Omani shareholder refuses to be bound by the shareholders’

agreement and files a claim for payment of dividends, an Omani court could declare the shareholders’ agreement

null and void because Omani law states that a holder of shares in an Omani limited liability company cannot be

deprived of his right to participate in the profits and losses of the company. The Omani nominee shareholder, or

its estate or assigns, could claim a right to 30% of all retrospectively declared dividends as well as future

dividends not yet declared. However, a court will consider and treat as binding the provisions of the

memorandum of association, which provisions take precedence over the terms of the shareholders’ agreement

and provide that the Omani nominee shareholder is entitled to 2% of the dividends, as provided under the

memorandum of association.

Qatar’s Law No. 25 of 2014, Combating Concealment of Non-Qatari Practice in Commercial, Economic and

Professional Activities in Contravention of the Law, is intended to prevent arrangements which circumvent

Qatar’s laws restricting foreign ownership, investment and business activities. While foreign parties commonly

enter into nominee shareholder arrangements such as ours in Qatar, there is a risk that a Qatari court could

determine that our nominee shareholder arrangements in Qatar and holding of shares by the nominee in trust for

us violate this law, the penalties for which could include criminal sanctions against us, the closure of our

business in Qatar or fines.

In Kuwait, our structure although not uncommon in practice, effectively circumvents the Kuwait foreign

ownership restriction rule. As such, these arrangements are generally deemed unenforceable. In the event that

we need to enforce our contractual rights against our Kuwaiti nominee partners before a Kuwait court, it is

unclear on how the courts will rule with respect to the nominee arrangement circumventing the foreign

ownership restriction rule. Although in the sole discretion of the courts, one potential outcome may be that a

Kuwaiti court deems the company, a company in fact and not in law. In such an instance, the company may be

liquidated with the assets distributed amongst the partners in accordance with the partners’ allocable percentages

under the nominee arrangement and the memorandum and articles of association of the nullified. It is important

to note that there are no safeguards with respect to violating the foreign ownership restriction rules. However, a

number of instruments and contracts do exist and have been entered into to protect the UAE subsidiary,

including, but not limited to, the pledging of the nominee partners shares in favour of the UAE subsidiary partner

to restrict the Kuwaiti nominee’s ability to transfer the shares.

Bahrain Decree Law (1) of 1987 Regarding the Sale and Lease of Commercial Stores; and Bahrain Legislative

Decree 27 of 2015 Promulgating the Commercial Registry Law contain legal provisions intended to prevent

arrangements which circumvent Bahrain’s laws and regulations restricting foreign ownership, investment and

business activities. While foreign parties fairly commonly enter into nominee shareholder arrangements such as

ours in Bahrain, there is a risk that a Bahraini court (and/or the Bahrain Ministry of Industry Commerce &

Tourism) could determine that our nominee shareholder arrangements in Bahrain and holding of shares by the

nominee in trust for us violate this law, which could lead to the imposition of penalties including (without

limitation) imposition of fines (of up to one thousand Bahraini Dinars); imprisonment for up to one (1) year;

suspension of the company’s Commercial Registration (CR); cancellation of the company’s Commercial

Registration.

Furthermore, in the event that we need to enforce our contractual rights against our Emirati nominee partner

before a Bahraini court, it remains unclear on how the courts will rule with respect to the nominee arrangement

circumventing the foreign ownership restriction rule(s).

7. We are subject to succession risks as we have entered into nominee shareholder arrangements with

natural persons.

We have nominee shareholder arrangements with natural persons, instead of juridical persons, in our subsidiaries

in the UAE, Oman, Qatar, Kuwait and Bahrain, and we are subject to succession risks in the event of the death or

32

incapacity of a nominee shareholder. There may also be an increased risk that the nominee shareholder’s heirs or

assigns, with whom we may not have any existing relationship, could contest the shareholder arrangement.

While our agreements with certain nominee shareholders provide that the nominee shareholders will transfer

their shares as we direct upon termination of our arrangements, including as a result of a dispute concerning the

fees payable to the nominee shareholder, there can be no assurance that such agreements will be enforced.

In the event of the death or incapacity of, or a dispute with, a nominee shareholder, it may adversely affect our

business and results of operations.

8. While our practice is in line with many other companies operating in the region, we have not been

documenting annual shareholder and board meetings in some of the Middle Eastern countries in which

we operate.

Our operations in Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Bahrain and the UAE are not in full compliance with the regulations

applicable in each of these respective jurisdictions, with respect to documenting board and shareholders’

meetings. While in practice the approach taken by us is in line with many other companies operating in the

region and there has been no precedence for regulatory authorities enforcing provisions of law in respect of the

foregoing and although the risk of any action being taken by relevant authorities in this regard is remote, we are

exposed to the risk of these provisions being enforced on one or more of our operations in Kuwait, Bahrain,

Oman, Qatar or the UAE and certain penalties being imposed by the local authorities. Such penalties could have

an adverse effect on our business and operations in the relevant jurisdictions.

9. The agreements governing our indebtedness contain conditions and restrictions on our operations,

additional financing and capital structure.

As of December 31, 2020, our total outstanding debt, including metal gold loans, was ₹36,671.70 million. We

have entered into several borrowing facilities of varying terms and tenures. The financing agreements governing

such facilities include conditions and restrictive covenants that require us to obtain consents, no-objections or

waivers from lenders prior to carrying out specified activities or entering into certain transactions, including,

among other things, incurring additional debt, prepaying existing debt, declaring dividends or incurring capital

expenditures beyond prescribed thresholds, amending our constitutional documents, changing our capital

structure, shareholding pattern or management, and selling, transferring, leasing or disposing our encumbered

assets. Additionally, under such financing agreements, we are also required to comply with certain financial

covenants, such as maintaining prescribed financial ratios at all times.

Undertaking any of the above without the consent of our lenders or non-compliance with any of the covenants of

our financing agreements, constitute defaults under the relevant financing agreements and will entitle the

respective lenders to declare a default against us and enforce remedies under the terms of the financing

agreements, that include, among others, acceleration in repayment of the amounts outstanding under the

financing agreements, enforcement of any security interest created under the financing agreements and taking

possession of the assets given as security in respect of the financing agreements. Further, we cannot assure you

that we will be able to obtain approvals to undertake any of these activities as and when required or to comply

with such covenants or other covenants in the future. A default by us under the terms of any financing agreement

may also trigger a cross-default under some of our other financing agreements, or any other agreements or

instruments of our containing cross-default provisions, which may individually or in aggregate, have an adverse

effect on our operations, financial position and credit rating. If the lenders of a material amount of the

outstanding loans declare an event of default simultaneously, we may be unable to pay its debts when they fall

due. For details of our borrowings, see “Financial Indebtedness” on page 362.

10. Our Company, Subsidiaries, Promoters and Directors are involved in certain legal proceedings and

potential litigation. Any adverse decision in such proceedings may render us/them liable to

liabilities/penalties and may adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Our Company, Subsidiaries, Promoters and Directors are currently involved in certain legal proceedings. These

legal proceedings are pending at different levels of adjudication before various courts and tribunals. The

summary of outstanding litigation in relation to our Company, our Subsidiaries, our Promoters and Directors as

on the date of this Prospectus have been provided below in accordance with the materiality policy adopted by our

Board. For details, see “Outstanding Litigation and Material Developments” on page 391.

Our Company has already paid ₹ 18.48 million under protest.

##

Please note that this amount only includes the amounts claimed by our Company. There is one matter where there is a counter claim of ₹

23.47 million made against our Company.

###

This amount arises out of a civil proceeding by Kalyan Jewellers LLC, UAE, our Subsidiary, involving an amount of AED 0.90 million.

Such amount has been converted into Rupees using www.oanda.com at the prevailing conversion rate as of December 31, 2020.

11. There are proceedings against Mr. T.S. Kalyanaraman, our Promoter, Chairman and Managing

Director.

Mr. T.S. Kalyanaraman is named as a party in a criminal proceeding for offences under Section 420, 34 and 506

of the Indian Penal Code, 1860, alleging that the ear-ring purchased by a customer had iron mixed with gold and

the jewellery was adulterated. Further, a separate criminal proceeding has been initiated by the Bengaluru

Metropolitan Task Force against Mr. T.S. Kalyanaraman, alleging that Mr. T.S. Kalyanaraman displayed certain

signs as advertising hoardings even after the expiry date of the license. A charge sheet against Mr. T.S.

Kalyanaraman has been submitted before the Court of the Chief Municipal Magistrate, Bangalore, however, the

Karnataka High Court by way of order dated January 21, 2020 has stayed this proceeding against Mr. T.S.

34

Kalyanaraman. If an adverse order is passed in any of these matters against Mr. T.S. Kalyanaraman, our

reputation may be adversely affected. For details, see “Outstanding Litigation and Material Developments –

Litigation involving our Promoters – Outstanding criminal litigation involving our Promoters – Criminal

proceedings against our Promoters - Mr. T.S. Kalyanaraman” on page 398.

12. Our Subsidiaries have availed unsecured loans from our Company that are recallable, at any time.

Enovate Lifestyles Private Limited and Kalyan Jewellers FZE have availed unsecured loans from our Company,

aggregating to ₹615.96 million as of December 31, 2020 that are repayable on demand. Such loan may be

recalled by our Company on occurrence of certain events. An amount of ₹4,697.56 million which was provided

as a loan by our Company to KJFZE was converted to equity on September 24, 2020, by issuing 235 equity

shares of AED 1,000,000 each. We incurred a loss of ₹ 114.93 million on account of foreign currency conversion

at the time of conversion of such loan to equity. Further, an amount of ₹581.83 million provided by way of loan

to KJFZE was outstanding as on December 31, 2020. For details, see “Financial Statements – Restated

Consolidated Financial Information – Note 34 – Related party disclosure” on page 272. In the event our

Company seeks repayment of any of these loans, Enovate Lifestyles Private Limited and Kalyan Jewellers FZE

would need to find alternative sources of financing, which may not be available on commercially reasonable

terms, or at all. Any such unexpected demand for repayment may have a material adverse effect on our business,

cash flows and financial condition. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and

Results of Operations - Contingent Liabilities” on page 388.

13. Our Promoters have provided personal guarantees to secure certain of our loan facilities, which if

revoked or invoked may require alternative guarantees, repayment of amounts due or termination of the

facilities.

Our Promoters have provided personal guarantees and mortgaged certain immovable properties in relation to

certain of our loan facilities and may continue to provide such guarantees after the listing of the Equity Shares

pursuant to the Offer. As on the date of this Prospectus, our Promoters have issued personal guarantees towards

contractual obligations in respect of loans availed by our Company and/or our Subsidiaries, which includes (i)

guarantee issued by our Promoters to SBICAP Trustee Company Limited, acting as trustee for the benefit of a

consortium of lenders (i.e., State Bank of India, Axis Bank Limited, Bank of Baroda, Bank of India, Canara

Bank, HDFC Bank Limited, IDBI Bank Limited, Indian Overseas Bank, the erstwhile Syndicate Bank (which

has since amalgamated into Canara Bank) and the South Indian Bank Limited), SBICAP Trustee Company

Limited (acting as a trustee for the benefit of State Bank of India, Bank of Baroda and Indian Overseas Bank),

IDFC First Bank Limited, Indian Overseas Bank, State Bank of India, National Bank of Fujairah PJSC and Bank

of Baroda, Dubai; (ii) guarantee issued by Mr. T.S. Kalyanaraman, one of our Promoters, to Commercial Bank of

Dubai. As on December 31, 2020, 96.76% and 79.79% of our consolidated borrowings is secured by way of

personal guarantee by and/or mortgage of property of our Promoters.

Note: For the table above, for loans and facilities availed by our Subsidiaries outside India, the exchange rate has been taken as 1 AED =

19.91 INR.

In the event that any of these guarantees are revoked or invoked, the lenders for such facilities may require

alternate guarantees, repayment of amounts outstanding under such facilities, or may even terminate such

facilities, as applicable. We may not be successful in procuring alternative guarantees satisfactory to the lenders,

and as a result, may need to repay outstanding amounts under such facilities or seek additional sources of capital,

which may not be available on acceptable terms or at all. Any such failure to raise additional capital could

adversely affect our operations and our financial condition. For further details, see “Financial Indebtedness” on

page 362.

14. We have contingent liabilities.

As of December 31, 2020, we had ₹12,088.41 million of contingent liabilities that had not been provided for. A

summary table of our contingent liabilities as of December 31, 2020 as disclosed in the Restated Consolidated

Financial Information is set forth below:

Total

12,088.41

For details, see “Financial Statements” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and

Results of Operations - Contingent Liabilities” on pages 212 and 388, respectively, for more information. Any or

all of these contingent liabilities may become actual liabilities. In the event that any of our contingent liabilities

become non-contingent, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.

Furthermore, there can be no assurance that we will not incur similar or increased levels of contingent liabilities

in the current fiscal year or in the future.

15. We have incurred losses in the past and had negative cash flows in the nine months ended December 31,

2020.

As per the Restated Consolidated Financial Information, we incurred a loss of ₹48.64 million in Fiscal 2019 and

a loss of ₹799.48 million in the nine months ended December 31, 2020 on a consolidated basis. We also had

negative cash flows from operating activities of ₹2,281.16 million in the nine months ended December 31, 2020.

37

While we recorded profits in both Fiscals 2018 and 2020, in the event that we incur further losses, our results of

operations and financial condition will be adversely affected. There can be no assurance that we will be able to

make profits in future.

16. We may be subject to negative publicity with respect to our products or brand or any third party using the

name “Kalyan” or similar trade names.

Our business is dependent on the trust our customers have in our brand and the quality of our products. Any

negative publicity regarding us, our brand, our products or the jewellery industry generally could adversely affect

our reputation and our results of operations. Our brand can be adversely affected by negative publicity or any

material litigation or claims concerning other businesses using the name “Kalyan” or similar trade names,

whether or not they are part of the Promoter Group. While we own the trademark for “Kalyan Jewellers” and the

name “Kalyan” for the jewellery business, the name Kalyan is currently used by certain extended family

members in other non-related business lines. Any negative publicity with respect to such other businesses could

adversely impact us, our brand and our products. Negative publicity regarding the brand ambassadors we choose

to represent our brand could also negatively impact us. In the past, we have experienced criticism of our brand

and brand ambassadors in certain instances across media platforms, including on social media. For example, in

2018, while we clarified our position and resolved the matter quickly and effectively, we were subject to

negative publicity when one of our customers raised concerns about the gold quantity used in our jewellery

products. Any such negative publicity regarding us, or our jewellery or that adversely affects our brand could

have material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

17. We may not be able to successfully adapt our systems, including internal controls and procedures over

financial reporting, as a result of increasing business complexity.

While we have built robust information technology, governance frameworks and operational management

systems to manage our business operations and to support our future growth at both the showroom and corporate

level, the increasing business complexity of our operations may place additional requirements on our systems,

controls, procedures and management and, as a result, may strain our ability to manage our future growth. Some

of our group-wide internal controls may require further adjustments or modifications in the future.

In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of

future events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there can be no assurance that

any specific control system will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions,

regardless of how remote. In addition, as a result of our growth strategy and the operating complexity of our

business, internal controls over financial reporting need to be kept under regular review which may place strain

on our managerial and operational resources.

Many of our control systems are dependent on third-party software and technology. Our third-party software may

be subject to damage, software errors, computer viruses, security breaches and the delayed or failed

implementation of new updates. Damage or interruption to our third-party and other control systems may require

a significant investment to fix or replace them, and we may suffer interruptions in our operations as a result.

18. Any failure of or disruption to our information technology systems could adversely impact our business

and operations.

We rely on our information technology (“IT”), systems to provide us with connectivity across our business

functions and showrooms through our software, hardware and network systems. Our business processes are IT-

enabled, and any failure in our IT systems or loss of connectivity or any loss of data arising from such failure

could disrupt our ability to track, record and analyse inventory, process financial information, manage

creditors/debtors or engage in normal business activities, which could have a material adverse effect on our

operations. While we have offsite data backup facilities, our backup facilities are concentrated in Thrissur,

Kerala and natural disasters or other events damaging or interrupting our data back-up facilities could have a

material adverse effect on our operations. Although we have not experienced any material failure in our IT

systems, there can be no assurance that our IT systems will not suffer a material failure in the future.

We are also susceptible to potential hacking or other breaches of our IT systems. Although we have anti-virus

and anti-hacking measures in place, we cannot assure you that we can successfully block and prevent all hacking

or other breaches. As a result, failure to protect against technological disruptions of our operations could

materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. We also maintain

significant amounts of customer data that we collect in order to promote our brand and direct targeted

38

advertisements to potential customers. Any breach of our IT systems or misuse by employees could result in the

loss or disclosure of confidential information, damage to our reputation, litigation or other liabilities.

Furthermore, we individually tag each item that is sold at our showrooms, which enables us to track, record and

analyse sales of our products to customers across all of our showrooms. We utilise an enterprise resource

planning (“ERP”), system to assist in managing our operations. Any delay or disruption in our IT systems,

including our ERP system, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results

of operations. Further, any failure, disruption or manipulation of our tagging system could disrupt our ability to

track, record and analyse sales of our products, which could have a material adverse effect on our business.

19. We have received certain inquiries involving our gold schemes, any adverse outcome of which may

adversely affect us and/or our Directors under applicable laws.

We offer various purchase advance schemes from time to time, such as the ‘Kalyan Akshaya’, ‘Kalyan

Sowbhagya’ and ‘Kalyan Dhanvarsha’ schemes. Through these schemes, customers can make monthly

instalments over a period of up to 11 months, to purchase jewellery within such period as specified in the scheme

(not exceeding 365 days from the commencement of the scheme for each customer). Instalment payments made

for our purchase advance schemes are not refundable in cash, but can be used as credits at our stores and may be

appropriated towards the purchase of our jewellery. We may also issue gold coins against the consolidated value

of the instalments depending on the term of the scheme. We also run a few priority programmes, under the name

‘Kalyan Priority Programme’, through which members/subscribers of the programme on payment of non-

refundable membership fee may avail certain benefits in the form of discounts, when they purchase jewellery for

a stipulated period of time. In the past, we offered purchase advance schemes which were in the nature of

deposits, which have now been discontinued. For details of revenue from purchase advance scheme, see

“Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Revenue from

Purchase Advance Scheme” on page 385.

While we have not faced any regulatory action in relation to such schemes in the past, we cannot assure you that

we will not face any regulatory action in this regard in the future. Any adverse regulatory or legislative view in

respect of such schemes may result in fines, proceedings or actions being undertaken against us, and our

Directors and/or other officers in default for breach of Sections 73 to 76 of the Companies Act, 2013 and the

Companies (Acceptance of Deposits) Rules, 2014, as amended. Any such adverse regulatory views and

consequential actions that we may be required to undertake, may be time consuming and may adversely impact

our profitability, results of operations and future prospects.

The Consumer Guidance Society on May 7, 2019 filed a complaint before SEBI and the Ministry of Corporate

Affairs, in Chennai, Tamil Nadu against certain jewellery companies, including us, alleging that designing and

implementation of gold schemes violates the Companies Act, 2013 and rules thereunder, with respect to

acceptance of deposits and the SEBI Act and regulations thereunder with respect to collective investment

schemes. Further, the Consumer Guidance Society sought an inquiry into such matter. The Registrar of

Companies on June 28, 2019 directed us to furnish details regarding the gold schemes among other details such

as, the amount of deposits accepted under the schemes, number of depositors, period of scheme, rate of interest

offered for the scheme, statement of compliance with Section 73 of the Companies Act, 2013 and details of

amount due but not paid. It further directed us to furnish a reply to the complaint from Consumer Guidance

Society, which we promptly did. We denied the allegations in our reply to the Consumer Guidance Society with

the Regional Director, Chennai, Tamil Nadu and the Registrar of Companies on July 2, 2019. Further, we

submitted a response to the letter to the Registrar of Companies furnishing the information sought by the

Registrar of Companies. We have not received any formal communication from either the Consumer Guidance

Society or the Registrar of Companies since then.

20. Our inability to appropriate the advances received from customers under our purchase advance schemes,

against the sale or supply of jewellery within the timeline(s) specified under applicable laws, may

adversely affect us and/or our Directors under applicable laws.

We offer various purchase advance schemes from time to time, such as the ‘Kalyan Akshaya’, ‘Kalyan

Sowbhagya’ and ‘Kalyan Dhanvarsha’ schemes. Through these schemes, customers can make monthly

instalments over a period of up to 11 months, to purchase jewellery within such period as specified in the scheme

(not exceeding 365 days from the commencement of the scheme for each customer). Instalment payments made

for our purchase advance schemes are not refundable in cash, but can be used as credits at our stores and may be

appropriated towards the purchase of our jewellery. We may also issue gold coins against the consolidated value

of the instalments depending on the term of the scheme. Certain details with respect to our purchase advance

39

schemes, such as the number of customers, advances received from customers and whether the scheme is

discontinued or ongoing, are set forth below*.

* As certified by M/s T.V. Ganesa Iyer & Co, Chartered Accountants, pursuant to their certificate dated March 4, 2021.

The advances received by us from customers under our purchase advance schemes, against which the customers

have not claimed or purchased jewellery or gold coins within the time specified in the terms and conditions of

these schemes, and which were outstanding as at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2020, aggregated to ₹

429.73 million and ₹ 518.79 million respectively. Due to the COVID-19 outbreak and associated actions such as

country-wide lockdowns and restrictions on travel and business operations, we were unable to appropriate these

outstanding advances against the supply or sale of jewellery or gold coins within a period of 365 days from the

date of acceptance of each of such advances. While we are in discussion with the concerned regulators regarding

our inability to comply with such timeline specified under the applicable provisions of the Companies Act,

2013, read with the Companies (Acceptance of Deposits) Rules, 2014, as amended, any adverse regulatory or

legislative view in respect of this matter may result in fines, proceedings or actions being undertaken against us,

and our Directors and/or other officers in default for breach of Sections 73 to 76 of the Companies Act, 2013 and

the Companies (Acceptance of Deposits) Rules, 2014, as amended. Any such adverse regulatory views and

40

consequential actions that we may be required to undertake, may be time consuming and may adversely impact

our profitability, results of operations and future prospects.

21. The current geographic concentration of our operations creates an exposure to local economies, regional

downturns and severe weather or other catastrophic occurrences.

The following table provides our revenue from operations from South India, outside South India in India and

from the Middle East as a percentage of our revenue from operations, for the periods indicated:

(1) includes the states of Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Karnataka and the union territory of Puducherry in India.

(2) includes states in India that are not in South India (as defined above).

(3) includes operations of our subsidiaries in UAE, Kuwait, Qatar, Oman and Bahrain.

As a result, our business is susceptible to regional conditions in South India, and we are vulnerable to economic

downturns in the region. Any unforeseen events or circumstances that negatively affect these areas could

materially adversely affect our sales and profitability. These factors include, among other things, changes in

demographics, population and income levels. In addition, our business may also be susceptible to regional

natural disasters and other catastrophes, such as telecommunications failures, cyber-attacks, fires, riots, political

unrest or terrorist attacks. While our geographical concentration has reduced as we have expanded our

operations, extensive or multiple disruptions in our operations, whether at our showrooms, “My Kalyan” centres

or other locations, due to natural disasters or other catastrophes could have an adverse effect on our business,

financial condition and results of operations. For example, we were impacted by floods in Kerala in Fiscal 2019

as a result of which we had to temporarily close some of our showrooms and “My Kalyan” centres in South India

which resulted in a decline in our cash flows and revenues during that period.

22. Changes or a downturn in economic conditions, in particular in our principal markets, may affect

consumer spending, including on our products.

Our revenues and results of operations are impacted by global economic conditions as well as the specific

economic conditions in our principal markets of India and the Middle East. India is our largest market,

accounting for 78.19% of our revenue from operations for Fiscal 2020, while the remainder of our revenue for

such periods was generated from our operations in the Middle East. Such conditions include levels of

employment, inflation or deflation, real disposable income, interest rates, taxation, currency exchange rates,

stock market performance, the availability of consumer credit, levels of consumer debt, consumer confidence,

consumer perception of economic conditions and consumer willingness to spend, all of which are beyond our

control. An economic downturn or an otherwise uncertain economic outlook in our principal markets, in any

other markets in which we may operate in the future, or on a global scale could adversely affect our consumer

spending habits and traffic, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and

financial condition. While wedding-related jewellery, our highest sold product category, is expected to remain

resilient despite the pandemic, according to the Technopak Report, we are aware that consumer spending tends to

decline during periods of economic slowdown when disposable income is lower. For example, our operations in

the Middle East have been impacted recently, and we chose to permanently close seven of our showrooms.

Any significant financial disruption in the future or adverse economic developments overseas in countries where

we have operations could have a material adverse impact on us. If economic downturns occur or persist in our

principal markets or globally, our business, results of operations and financial condition may be materially

adversely affected, particularly if our customers reduce or eliminate their spending.

23. We may be unable to expand our product offerings and distribution channels.

We expect, in the coming years, to expand our portfolio of jewellery by increasing our focus on diamond and

other studded jewellery. Although we believe that new products will complement and leverage the perception of

41

our brand and existing product portfolio, there is no certainty that these products will be well received by

customers or that they will not hurt the perception of our brand and existing product portfolio. Moreover, the

jewellery industry is highly competitive and there may be established players catering to demand for new products

we launch, which may make it difficult for us to gain market share with respect to new product offerings.

We also intend to continue expanding our online sales platform to maximise customer reach and foster the

potential for additional revenue opportunities. In 2017, we purchased a stake in Enovate Lifestyles Private

Limited, currently our subsidiary, which owns an online jewellery platform operated through www.candere.com.

In expanding our online sales platform, we face the risk that our websites may not be stable or may not properly

perform the functions which we intend them to perform, which could result in the loss of revenues and potential

damage to our brand. Our websites and IT systems are subject to damage or interruption from power outages,

computer and telecommunications failures, software errors, computer viruses, security breaches, natural disasters

and the delayed or failed implementation of new computer systems. Damage or interruption to our websites and

other information systems may require a significant investment to fix or replace them, and we may suffer

interruptions in our operations as a result.

Our inability to successfully implement these growth strategies may have a material adverse effect on our

business, results of operations and financial condition.

24. We may be unable to manage our significant growth.

In recent years, our business has experienced significant growth. Our revenue from operations increased by

3.38% to ₹101,009.18 million for Fiscal 2020 from ₹97,707.62 million for Fiscal 2019 primarily due to an

increase in gold and studded jewellery sold by us. From March 31, 2015 to December 31, 2020, we have

increased our total showrooms from 77 to 137. As of December 31, 2020, we had operations across 21 states in

India. Further, from March 31, 2019 to March 31, 2020, our employee strength at ‘My Kalyan’ locations

increased from 2,152 employees to 2,467 employees. As a result of significant expansion, our business and

organization have become, and are expected to continue to become, considerably more complex. This requires us

to adapt continuously to meet the needs of our growing business and could expose us to a number of factors

which may negatively impact our business, financial condition and results of operations. While we have built

robust information technology, governance frameworks and operational management systems to manage our

business operations and to support our future growth at both the showroom and corporate level, in the future in

particular, our success will depend on our ability to adapt continuously to meet the needs of our growing

business and could expose us to a number of factors which may negatively impact our business, financial

condition and results of operations. While we have built robust information technology, governance frameworks

and operational management systems to manage our business operations and to support our future growth at both

the showroom and corporate level, in the future in particular, our success will depend on our ability to:

 successfully adapt our systems, including internal controls and procedures over financial reporting. See

“— We may not be able to successfully adapt our systems, including internal controls and procedures

over financial reporting, as a result of increasing business complexity”;

 maintain and develop a consistent and strong brand identity and further develop our brand strength

across a growing organization and increasing number of markets, especially in light of the decentralised

nature of our business and across expanding and new products. See “—The strength of our brands is

crucial to our success and we may not succeed in continuing to maintain and develop our brands”;

 ensure safe movement and storage of high-value inventory;

 source, at appropriate prices, the amount of raw materials required for increased production;

 attract and retain experienced, high quality management and other key employees;

 identify potential new markets and suitable locations for our showrooms as well as obtaining leases for

our new showrooms on commercially attractive terms;

 efficiently manage international operations, including by acquiring expertise of specific international

markets where we expand with respect to customer preferences and regulatory concerns;

 respond to increasing competition from competitors in the existing markets we cover as well as new

markets we may enter in the future; and

 respond to regional preferences in jewellery and changing customer demands.

We may not be able to adequately respond to any of the foregoing factors or otherwise manage our significant

growth.

42

Additional growth means we may also require significant financial resources in connection with the opening of

new showrooms, financing inventory and hiring of additional employees for our expanded operations. We may

be required to obtain external financing for such expansion and there can be no assurance that such financing will

be available to us on commercially acceptable terms, or at all. We will also be required to obtain certain

approvals to carry on business in new locations and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in

obtaining such approvals. Further, we expect our expansion plans to place demands on our managerial,

operational and financial resources, and our expanded operations will require further training and management of

our employees and the training and induction of new employees. In addition, as we enter new markets, we face

competition from national, international and local jewellery companies, who may have an established local

presence, and may be more familiar with local customers’ design preferences, business practices and customs.

Our historic growth rates or results of operations are not representative or reliable indicators of our future

performance. While we intend to continue to expand our operations, we may not be able to sustain historic

growth levels and may not be able to leverage our experience in our existing markets in order to grow our

business in new markets. Our prior successful efforts in opening showrooms may not be indicative of new

showrooms that we open and new showrooms we open may not be able to generate sales to the extent we expect,

or at all.

An inability to effectively manage our expanded operations now, or in the future, may lead to operational and

financial inefficiencies, which could have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, financial condition

and results of operations.

25. We could face customer complaints or negative publicity about our customer service.

Customer complaints or negative publicity about our customer service could diminish consumer confidence in,

and the attractiveness of, our Company and brand. We interact with customers across all of our showrooms and

“My Kalyan” networks and consistently strive to maintain high standards of customer service. However, we

periodically have experienced customer disputes and receive complaints, which we endeavour to resolve through

prompt and effective customer service. Any inability by us to properly manage or train our sales staff, “My

Kalyan” employees and managerial personnel who handle customer complaints and disputes could compromise

our ability to handle customer complaints effectively in the future. If we do not handle customer complaints

effectively, our reputation may suffer, and we may lose our customers’ confidence, which could have a material

adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

26. Our income and sales are subject to seasonal fluctuations and lower income in a peak season may have a

disproportionate effect on our results of operations.

Our sales in certain regions have historically exhibited certain seasonal fluctuations, reflecting higher sales

volumes and profit margins during festival periods and other occasions such as Akshay Trithiya, Durga

Puja, Dhanteras, Diwali and Christmas. While we stock certain inventory to account for this seasonality

which differs across regions, our fixed costs such as lease rentals, employee salaries, showroom operating

costs and logistics-related expenses, which form a significant portion of operating costs, are relatively

constant throughout the year. Consequently, lower than expected net sales during certain periods or more

pronounced seasonal variations in sales in the future could have a disproportionate impact on our operating

results for any fiscal year or could strain our resources and impair our cash flows. Any slowdown in

demand for our jewellery during peak seasons or failure by us to accurately anticipate and prepare for such

seasonal fluctuations could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of

operations.

27. Our business depends on our Promoters and senior management and our ability to attract and retain

sales personnel.

We believe that the experience of our Promoters and senior management has been critical to our success and

business growth. As a result, any loss of the services of any of our Promoters or senior management could

materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. The replacement of

senior management may not be straightforward or achievable in a timely manner, and we may be required to wait

indefinitely to fill positions until we find suitable candidates. Furthermore, attracting and retaining experienced

and qualified senior management could require increasing compensation and benefits payable to such personnel,

which could affect our operational costs and accordingly, our financial condition and results of operations.

43

Our success is also dependent on our ability to attract, hire, train and retain experienced and skilled sales

personnel, including sales personnel who speak local languages in the various regions in which we operate. In

the jewellery industry, the level and quality of sales personnel and customer service are key competitive factors

and an inability to recruit, train and retain suitably qualified and skilled sales personnel who maintain

consistency in our standards of customer service and overall operations could adversely impact our reputation,

business prospects and results of operations. We could encounter challenges in identifying, training and retaining

sales personnel as the Indian jewellery industry is expected to experience significant growth in future years.

For Fiscal 2020, 2019 and 2018 and for the nine months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 we had an attrition

rate of 20%, 24%, 21%, 14% and 16%, respectively. There can be no assurance that attrition rates for our

employees, including our management and sales personnel, will not increase. A significant increase in our

employee attrition rate could also result in decreased operational efficiencies and productivity, loss of market

knowledge and customer relationships, and an increase in recruitment and training costs, thereby materially and

adversely affecting our business, results of operations and financial condition.

28. We have significant working capital requirements and our ability to access capital at attractive costs also

depends on our credit ratings.

Our business requires a substantial amount of working capital, primarily to finance our inventory, including the

purchase of raw materials. Moreover, we may need working capital for the expansion of our business. A large

part of this working capital is funded by bank loans or metal gold loans. Our working capital loans on a

consolidated basis as of December 31, 2020 were ₹34,389.91 million, which are repayable on demand. We also

intend to use ₹6,000 million from the Net Proceeds towards funding our working capital requirements. A portion

of the gold used in our jewellery is procured through metal gold loans, whereby bullion is loaned to us at a

specified interest rate and which are governed by specific conditions of the Ministry of Commerce and Industry,

Government of India (“GoI”) and applicable RBI regulations. There can be no assurance that we will be able to

secure adequate financing in the future on commercially acceptable terms, or at all, including in the event our

lenders call in loans repayable on demand or if there is a change in applicable regulations. Our inability to obtain

or maintain sufficient cash flow, credit facilities and other sources of funding, in a timely manner, or at all, to

meet our working capital requirements or to pay our debts, could adversely affect our financial condition and

results of operations. For details on our working capital facilities, see “Financial Indebtedness” on page 294.

Also, see “ – The agreements governing our indebtedness contain conditions and restrictions on our operations,

additional financing and capital structure” on page 32.

The cost and availability of capital, among other factors, depends on our credit rating. Our debt

instruments/facilities have been assigned a long-term rating of “ICRA A-” with a stable outlook and a short-term

rating of “ICRA A2+” and our fixed deposit program has been assigned a rating of “MA-” with a stable outlook

by ICRA Limited. The outlook on the long-term rating on the debt instruments/facilities and on the rating on our

fixed deposit program was revised from ‘positive’ to ‘stable’ in 2020. Our credit rating reflects, amongst other

things, the rating agency’s opinion of our financial strength, operating performance, strategic position, and ability

to meet our obligations. Our inability to obtain such credit rating in a timely manner or any non-availability of

credit ratings, or poor ratings, or any downgrade or downward revision in our ratings may increase borrowing

costs and constrain our access to capital and lending markets and, as a result, could adversely affect our business

and results of operations. In addition, non-availability of credit ratings could increase the possibility of additional

terms and conditions being added to any new or replacement financing arrangements.

Set forth below is the summary of credit ratings assigned to our debt instruments/facilities and fixed deposit

program by ICRA Limited in last three Fiscals and nine months ended December 31, 2020:

29. We obtain a part of our gold requirement through metal gold loans which is subject to RBI regulations in

India. Any adverse change in the regulations governing metal gold loans may adversely affect our

financial condition and results of operations.

We procure gold used for our jewellery from various banks in India and in the Middle East for our respective

operations in each region as well as from customers directly. As of December 31, 2020, we had outstanding

metal gold loans of ₹8,035.29 million that we procured from various banks. For details, see “Financial

Indebtedness” on page 362. We benefit from significantly lower effective interest rates by procuring gold

through metal gold loans as compared to the interest rates payable if we procure gold through fund-based loans.

Metal gold loans are subject to RBI regulations. For details, see the section entitled “Key Regulations and

Policies in India” on page 157. In the event of any adverse regulatory development or in the event that we are

otherwise not able to avail such metal gold loans, we may not be able to benefit from such low interest rates. We

cannot assure you that we will always be able to enjoy these benefits. For instance, pursuant to the 20/80 scheme

for import of gold introduced by way of the RBI circular dated July 22, 2013 (numbered RBI/2013-14/148, A.P.

(DIR Series) Circular No.15) and the RBI circular dated August 14, 2013 (numbered RBI/2013-14/187, A.P.

(DIR Series) Circular No. 25), 20% of the gold imported by a nominated bank was required to be made available

for the purpose of exports and the supply of gold in any form to the domestic users other than against full

payment upfront was not to be permitted. This adversely impacted our ability to procure gold through metal gold

loans. On May 21, 2014 (numbered RBI/2013-14/600/A.P. (DIR Series) Circular No.133), RBI permitted

nominated banks, to give gold metal loans to domestic jewellery manufacturers out of the eligible domestic

import quota of 80%. The above mentioned restrictions were subsequently withdrawn by way of the RBI circular

dated November 28, 2014 (numbered RBI/2014-15/329, A.P. (DIR Series) Circular No. 42). In the event there is

any such adverse change in these regulations in the future, we may not be able to enjoy the extended borrowing

period or borrow the funds at comparatively lower rates. Such adverse changes may affect our working capital

cycle and could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operation.

30. We may be unable to renew our existing leases or secure new leases for our existing or new showrooms or

“My Kalyan” centres on commercially acceptable terms.

The majority of our existing showrooms and “My Kalyan” centres are located on leased properties. We typically

enter into lease agreements for a period of 15 years for our showrooms in India and up to five years in Middle

East and 11 months to five years for our “My Kalyan” centres although the lock-in period of these leases is

typically lower in duration. While we renew these lease agreements periodically in the ordinary course of

business, in the event that these existing leases are terminated or they are not renewed on commercially

acceptable terms, we may suffer a disruption in our operations. If alternative premises are not available at the

same or similar costs, sizes or locations, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be

adversely affected. In addition, any adverse development relating to the landlords’ title or ownership rights to

such properties may entail significant disruptions to our operations, especially if we are forced to vacate leased

spaces following any such developments. If our sales do not increase in line with our rent and costs, including

setup and interior design costs, our profitability and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Our growth strategy involves expanding our showroom network, which necessitates the identification of suitable

locations, taking into account the positioning and visibility of the space as well as the characteristics of nearby

businesses and the demographics of the area. The premises for most of our proposed new showrooms and “My

Kalyan” centres are also expected to be taken on lease. The success of our business is significantly dependent on

factors such as the availability of suitable sites for our showrooms and “My Kalyan” centres in prime and

desirable areas on commercially acceptable terms and we encounter competition from other jewellery companies

in this regard. There can be no assurance that we will be able to secure leases for our showrooms and “My

Kalyan” centres in suitable areas, in time, or on terms that are acceptable to us or at all. Failure to do so may

adversely affect our business prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

31. We may require additional capital and financing in the future and our operations could be curtailed if we

are unable to obtain required additional capital and financing when needed.

45

We may need to raise additional capital from time to time, dependent on business requirements. Some of the

factors that may require us to raise additional capital include (i) business growth beyond what the current balance

sheet can sustain; (ii) unforeseen events beyond our control such as the global lockdown due to a pandemic and

(iii) significant depletion in our existing capital base due to unusual operating losses. While we do not anticipate

seeking additional financing in the immediate future, any additional equity financing may result in dilution to the

holders of the Equity Shares. Further, additional debt financing may impose affirmative and negative covenants

that restrict our freedom to operate our business, including covenants that:

 limit our ability to pay dividends or require us to seek consent for the payment of dividends;

 limit our flexibility in raising capital in the form of debt or equity;

 require us to dedicate a portion of our cash flow from operations to payments on our debt, thereby

reducing the availability of our cash flow to fund capital expenditures, working capital and other general

corporate purposes;

 limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and our industry;

 limit us from formulating any scheme of amalgamation or reconstruction, merger or demerger; and

 limit us from entering into borrowing arrangements with other banks or financial institutions.

We cannot guarantee that we will be able to obtain additional capital, including via financing on terms that are

acceptable to us, or any financing at all, and the failure to obtain sufficient financing could adversely affect our

business operations.

32. We are required to maintain various licences and permits for our business.

Our business is subject to government regulations and we require certain statutory and regulatory approvals,

licences, registrations and permissions for operating our business, some of which may have expired and for

which we may have either made or are in the process of making applications for obtaining their renewal. For

details, see “Government and Other Approvals” on page 401. These permits, licences and approvals may also be

tied to numerous conditions, some of which may be onerous to us and require substantial expenditures. We

cannot assure you that we will be able to continuously meet such conditions or be able to prove compliance with

such conditions to statutory authorities, which may lead to cancellation, revocation or suspension of relevant

permits, licenses, registrations and approvals. There is no assurance in the future that the permits, licenses,

registrations and approvals applied for or held by us will be issued, approved or renewed in a prompt manner, or

at all, under applicable laws.

Further, applications for approvals, licences, registrations and permissions for operating our business need to be

made within certain timeframes and are often subject to the discretion of relevant authorities. If we are unable to

make applications or renew or obtain necessary permits, licences and approvals on acceptable terms, in a timely

manner, at a reasonable cost, or at all or in the event we fail to comply with the terms and conditions therein, it

could materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations, including cancellation,

revocation or suspension of relevant permits, licenses, registrations and approvals and the imposition of penalties

by relevant authorities. Furthermore, our failure to obtain or renew licences and approvals could affect our ability

to recover under our insurance policies.

Further, as on the date of this Prospectus, in respect of two of our Material Subsidiaries: (i) a trade license with

respect to one of the branches of Kalyan Jewellers LLC, UAE in UAE has expired and an application for renewal

has been made; and (ii) the commercial registration of Kalyan Jewellers LLC, Qatar and certain key registrations,

licenses, permits and approvals with respect to five of the branches of Kalyan Jewellers LLC, Qatar in Qatar

have expired and applications for renewals have been made for such registrations, licenses, permits and

approvals. For details, see “Government and Other Approvals” on page 401.

Further, we have made applications to the Indian trademarks registry for certain trademarks such as

“Dhanvarsha” under class 14 and “Sankalp” under classes 14, 16 and 35. For details, see “Government and Other

Approvals” on page 401.

33. We may not be able to protect our trademarks from infringement.

We have registered our “Kalyan Jewellers” brand name and logo as registered trademarks in India. Additionally,

as on the date of this Prospectus, we have obtained trademarks registrations, including for our logo under class

14 and other trademarks of our brands, such as “Kalyan Jewellers” under classes 14 and 16, “Kalyan” under

Class 14, “Tejasvi” under class 35, “Rang” under class 35, “Antara” under class 35, “Hera” under classes 14 and

35, “Mudhra” under classes 14 and 35, “Nimah” under classes 14 and 35, “Ziah” under classes 14 and 35 and

46

“Anokhi” under class 35. Further, we have made applications to the Indian trademarks registry for certain

trademarks such as “Dhanvarsha” under class 14 and “Sankalp” under classes 14, 16 and 35. Although we take

steps to monitor the possible infringement or misuse of our trademarks, it is possible that third parties may

infringe, dilute or otherwise violate our trademark rights. Any unauthorised use of our trademarks could harm

our reputation or commercial interests. In addition, our enforcement against third-party infringers or violators

may be unduly expensive and time-consuming, and any remedy obtained may constitute insufficient redress

relative to the damages we may suffer. Certain of our trademarks applications have been opposed or refused for

registration in the past, including opposition in respect of “Tejasvi” under class 14. In the absence of trademark

registrations for such brands and in the event of their misuse by a third party, we may not be able to initiate an

infringement action against such third party. We cannot assure you that we will be successful in such a challenge

nor can we guarantee that eventually our trademark applications will be approved, which in turn could result in

significant monetary loss or prevent us from selling our products under such brands. In relation to our other

pending applications, third parties may seek to oppose or otherwise challenge these registrations. For details, see

“Government and Other Approvals” on page 401. Also, see “ – We may be subject to negative publicity with

respect to our products or brand or any third party using the name “Kalyan” or similar trade names” on page

37.

34. We may fail to protect our jewellery designs.

We change our jewellery designs on a regular basis and do not register such designs under the Design Act, 2000.

As such, it would be difficult for us to enforce our intellectual property rights in our designs, and if our

competitors copy our designs, in particular the designs of our products available on our website or the designs

given to third-party contractors, it could lead to a loss of revenue, which could adversely affect our results of

operations and financial condition. Further, we manufacture through our network of contract manufacturers

where we provide raw material and designs to such contractors. While we control and supervise the entire

manufacturing process, the contract manufacturers could make the same or similar jewellery for other parties,

including our competitors. If our contract manufacturers produce the same or similar jewellery for our

competitors, our customers may no longer purchase our jewellery or look to our competitors for similar

jewellery, which could negatively impact our results operations and financial condition. Additionally, designs

developed by us may inadvertently infringe on the intellectual property rights of third parties, which may expose

us to legal proceedings. Thus, we are susceptible to litigation for infringement of intellectual property rights in

relation to such designs. This could materially and adversely affect our reputation, results of operations and

financial condition.

35. We may be subject to fraud, theft, employee negligence or similar incidents.

Our operations may be subject to incidents of theft or damage to inventory in transit, prior to or during

showroom stocking and display. Our industry typically encounters some inventory loss on account of employee

theft, shoplifting, vendor fraud, credit card fraud and general administrative error. We maintain large amounts of

inventory at all our showrooms at all times and had a total inventory of ₹51,681.98 million, as of December 31,

2020. Although we have set up various security measures, we have in the past experienced such incidents,

including certain minor instances of theft. For instance, our employees have filed first information reports with

the Coimbatore police station and the Police Commissionerate, Jalandhar, in relation to alleged instances of

misappropriation and theft from our showrooms. For details, see “Outstanding Litigation and Material

Developments – Litigation involving our Company – Outstanding Criminal Litigation involving our Company –

Criminal Proceedings by our Company” on page 392.There can be no assurance that we will not experience any

fraud, theft, employee negligence, security lapse, loss in transit or similar incidents in the future, which could

adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Additionally, in case of losses due to theft, fire, breakage or damage caused by other casualties, there can be no

assurance that we will be able to recover from our insurers the full amount of any such loss in a timely manner,

or at all. If we incur a significant inventory loss due to third-party or employee theft and if such loss exceeds the

limits of, or is subject to an exclusion from, coverage under our insurance policies, it could have an adverse

effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. In addition, if we file claims under an

insurance policy it could lead to increases in the insurance premiums payable by us or the termination of

coverage under the relevant policy.

36. We may be subject to labour unrest, slowdowns and increased wage costs.

India has stringent labour legislation that protects the interests of workers, including legislation that sets forth

detailed procedures for the establishment of unions, dispute resolution and employee removal, and legislation

47

that imposes certain financial obligations on employers upon retrenchment. Our employees are not unionised.

However, in the event that employees seek to unionise, it may become difficult for us to maintain flexible labour

policies, which may increase our costs and adversely affect our business. Furthermore, the contract

manufacturers with whom we work to manufacture our jewellery could seek to organise. A potential increase in

the salary scale of our employees or amounts paid to our contract manufacturers as a result of organisation or

unrest, or a disruption in services from our employees or contract manufacturers due to potential strikes, could

adversely affect our business operations and financial condition.

37. Our insurance may be insufficient to cover all losses associated with our business operations.

Our insurance policies currently cover our precious jewellery items and cash in storerooms, transit, theft and

while being handled by our employees, including with respect to fire and special perils. As at December 31,

2020, we have insurance coverage for all of our assets. Notwithstanding the insurance coverage that we carry, we

may not be fully insured against certain business risks. There are many events that could significantly impact our

operations, or expose us to third-party liabilities, for which we may not be adequately insured. There can be no

assurance that any claim under the insurance policies maintained by us will be honoured fully, in part, or on time.

To the extent that we suffer any loss or damage that is not covered by insurance or exceeds our insurance

coverage, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

38. Certain sections of this Prospectus disclose information from an industry report commissioned by us and

any reliance on such information for making an investment decision in the Offer is subject to inherent

risks.

Pursuant to being engaged by us, Technopak Advisors Private Limited (“Technopak”), which is not related to

our Company, our Directors or our Promoters prepared a report dated February 25, 2021 on the organised

jewellery industry in India entitled, “Industry Report on Indian Jewellery” (“Technopak Report”). Certain

sections of this Prospectus include information based on, or derived from, the Technopak Report or extracts of

the Technopak Report. None of our Company (including our Directors), the Selling Shareholders and the Lead

Managers possess the professional skills to evaluate the accuracy, adequacy, completeness and objectivity of, or

verify, the information covered in the Technopak Report and cannot provide any assurance regarding the

information in this Prospectus derived from, or based on, the Technopak Report. All such information in this

Prospectus indicates the Technopak Report as its source. Accordingly, any information in this Prospectus derived

from, or based on, the Technopak Report should be read taking into consideration the foregoing.

Industry sources and publications are also prepared based on information as of specific dates and may no longer

be current or reflect current trends. Industry sources and publications may also base their information on

estimates, projections, forecasts and assumptions that may prove to be incorrect. While industry sources take due

care and caution while preparing their reports, they do not guarantee the accuracy, adequacy or completeness of

the data. Accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on, or base their investment decision solely on

this information.

In view of the foregoing, you may not be able to seek legal recourse for any losses resulting from undertaking

any investment in the Offer pursuant to reliance on the information in this Prospectus based on, or derived from,

the Technopak Report. You should consult your own advisors and undertake an independent assessment of

information in this Prospectus based on, or derived from, the Technopak Report before making any investment

decision regarding the Offer. See “Industry Overview” on page 114.

39. Our business generates or processes customer data, and the improper use or disclosure of such data could

subject us to significant reputational, financial, legal and operational consequences, and deter current

and potential consumers from using our services.

Our business generates or processes personal, transaction, demographic and behavioral data. We face risks

inherent in handling large volumes of data and in protecting the security of such data. In particular, we face a

number of challenges relating to data from transactions and other activities on our platform, including:

 protecting the data in and hosted on our system, including against attacks on our system by outside

parties or fraudulent behavior by our employees;

 addressing concerns related to privacy and sharing, safety, security and other factors; and

48

 complying with applicable laws, rules and regulations relating to the collection, use, disclosure or

security of personal information, including any requests from regulatory and government authorities

relating to such data.

Any systems failure or security breach or lapse that results in the release of user data could harm our reputation

and brand and, consequently, our business, in addition to exposing us to potential legal liability. We have

encountered user data leakage incidents in the past. Any failure, or perceived failure, by us to comply with our

posted privacy policies or with any regulatory requirements or privacy protection-related laws, rules and

regulations could result in proceedings or actions against us by governmental entities or others. These

proceedings or actions may subject us to significant penalties and negative publicity, require us to change our

business practices, increase our costs and severely disrupt our business.

We are subject to domestic and international laws relating to the collection, use, retention, security and transfer

of personally identifiable information with respect to our consumers and employees. In many cases, these laws

not only apply to third-party transactions, but also may restrict transfers of personally identifiable information

among us and our international subsidiaries. A draft of the Personal Data Protection Bill, 2019 has been

introduced before the Lok Sabha on December 11, 2019, which has been referred to a joint parliamentary

committee by the Parliament. The bill seeks to provide protection of personal data of individuals, create a

framework for processing such personal data, and establish a data protection authority. Further, several

jurisdictions have passed laws in this area, and other jurisdictions are considering imposing additional

restrictions. These laws continue to develop and may vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Complying with

emerging and changing international requirements may cause us to incur costs or require us to change our

business practices.

40. Our management will have broad discretion over the use of the Net Proceeds.

We intend to use the Net Proceeds for (i) funding our working capital requirements, and (ii) general corporate

purposes. The deployment of the Net Proceeds is based on management estimates, current circumstances of our

business and prevailing market conditions and has not been appraised by any bank, financial institution or other

independent institution. We may have to revise our funding requirements and deployment from time to time due

to various factors, such as changes in costs, financial and market conditions, business and strategy considerations

and interest and exchange rate fluctuations or other external factors, which may or may not be within the control

of our management. This may entail rescheduling and revising planned expenditure and funding requirements

and increasing or decreasing expenditures for a particular purpose from planned expenditures at the discretion of

our management and subject to applicable law. Accordingly, investors in the Equity Shares will be relying on the

judgment of our management regarding the application of the Net Proceeds. Further, we have appointed a

monitoring agency for monitoring the utilisation of Net Proceeds in accordance with Regulation 41 of the SEBI

ICDR Regulations and the monitoring agency will submit its report to us on a quarterly basis in accordance with

the SEBI ICDR Regulations. The application of the Net Proceeds in our business may not lead to an increase in

the value of your investment. Various risks and uncertainties, including those set forth in this section “Risk

Factors”, may limit or delay our efforts to use the Net Proceeds to achieve profitable growth in our business. For

details see, “Objects of the Offer” on page 97.

41. Any variation in the utilisation of the Net Proceeds or in the terms of any contract as disclosed in this

Prospectus would be subject to certain compliance requirements, including prior shareholders’ approval.

We propose to utilise the Net Proceeds for (i) funding our working capital requirements, and (ii) general

corporate purposes. For details, see “Objects of the Offer” on page 89. The deployment of the Net Proceeds is

based on management estimates, current circumstances of our business, prevailing market conditions and has not

been appraised by any bank, financial institution or other independent party. Accordingly, at this stage, we

cannot determine with any certainty if we will require the Net Proceeds to meet any other expenditure or fund

any exigencies arising out of the competitive environment, business conditions, economic conditions or other

factors beyond our control. In accordance with Section 27 of the Companies Act, 2013, we cannot undertake any

variation in the utilisation of the Net Proceeds or in the terms of any contract as disclosed in this Prospectus

without obtaining the Shareholders’ approval through a special resolution. In the event of any such circumstances

that require us to undertake variation in the disclosed utilisation of the Net Proceeds, we may not be able to

obtain the Shareholders’ approval in a timely manner, or at all. Any delay or inability in obtaining such

Shareholders’ approval may adversely affect our business or operations.

Further, our Promoters would be required to provide an exit opportunity to the shareholders who do not agree

with our proposal to change the objects of the Offer or vary the terms of such contracts, at a price and manner as

49

prescribed by SEBI. Additionally, the requirement on Promoters to provide an exit opportunity to such dissenting

shareholders may deter the Promoters from agreeing to the variation of the proposed utilisation of the Net

Proceeds, even if such variation is in our interest. Further, we cannot assure you that our Promoters will have

adequate resources at their disposal at all times to enable them to provide an exit opportunity at the price

prescribed by SEBI.

In light of these factors, we may not be able to undertake variation of objects of the Offer to use any unutilised

proceeds of the Offer, if any, or vary the terms of any contract referred to in this Prospectus, even if such

variation is in our interest. This may restrict our ability to respond to any change in our business or financial

condition by re-deploying the unutilised portion of the Net Proceeds, if any, or varying the terms of any contract,

which may adversely affect our business and results of operations.

42. We have in the past entered into related party transactions and may continue to do so in the future.

We have entered into certain transactions with related parties, including with respect to the payment of

remuneration of certain of our Directors and our Key Managerial Personnel. While we believe that all such

transactions have been conducted on an arm’s length basis, in the ordinary course of our business and on

commercially reasonably terms, there can be no assurance that we could not have achieved more favourable

terms had such transactions not been entered into with related parties. Furthermore, it is likely that we may enter

into related party transactions in the future. While in terms of the Companies Act, 2013 and the SEBI Listing

Regulations, certain related party transactions require Audit Committee and shareholders’ approval, there can be

no assurance that such transactions, individually or in the aggregate, will not have an adverse effect on our

financial condition and results of operations or that we could not have achieved more favorable terms if such

transactions had not been entered into with related parties. Additionally, any future transactions with our related

parties could potentially involve conflicts of interest.

The following table sets forth the percentage of the value of related party transactions as a percentage of total

income, on consolidated and standalone basis, for Fiscals 2018, 2019 and 2020 and for the nine months ended

December 31, 2019 and 2020:

43. While our Company will receive proceeds from the Fresh Issue, it will not receive any proceeds from the

Offer for Sale.

In addition to the Fresh Issue from which our Company will receive proceeds, the Offer includes an Offer for

Sale by the Selling Shareholders. The Selling Shareholders include one of our Promoters and Directors, Mr. T.S.

Kalyanaraman; and Highdell, the Investor Selling Shareholder. Our Selling Shareholders will receive the entire

proceeds from the Offer for Sale (after deducting applicable Offer Expenses) and our Company will not receive

any part of such proceeds. For further details, see “Capital Structure” and “Objects of the Offer” on pages 85 and

97, respectively.

44. We may be subject to risks from strategic acquisitions.

We may pursue opportunities to acquire strategic businesses. Acquisitions involve significant risks and

uncertainties, including: (i) difficulties in identifying suitable acquisition targets and competition from other

potential acquirers; (ii) difficulties in determining the appropriate purchase price of acquired businesses, which

may result in potential impairment of goodwill; (iii) potential increases in debt, which may increase our finance

costs as a result of higher interest payments; (iv) exposure to unanticipated contingent liabilities of acquired

businesses; (v) receipt of requisite governmental, statutory and other regulatory approvals for any proposed

acquisition; and (vi) not realising the benefits from certain investments, or certain investments not resulting in

immediate returns.

50

Furthermore, integration of newly acquired businesses may be costly and time-consuming, and each acquisition

could present us with significant risks and difficulties in integration, including, for example, in:

 integrating the operations and personnel of the acquired businesses and implementing uniform IT

systems, controls, procedures and policies;

 retaining relationships with key employees, customers and suppliers of the acquired businesses; and

 achieving the anticipated synergies and strategic or financial benefits from the acquisitions.

45. There may have been certain instances of non-compliances and alleged non-compliances with respect to

certain regulatory filings for corporate actions taken by our Company in the past. Consequently, we may

be subject to regulatory actions and penalties for any such past or future non-compliance and our

business, financial condition and reputation may be adversely affected.

There may have been certain procedural instance of lapses such as delays, non-filing and factual errors in our

corporate records, in relation to certain corporate actions taken by our Company in the past. This may subject us

to regulatory actions and/or penalties which may adversely affect our business, financial condition and

reputation. For instance, we received a notice from the RBI on November 28, 2019 (“Notice”), alleging that we

had contravened Regulations 6(2)(vi) and 15(iii) of FEMA Notification No. 120R/B by delaying the submission

of Form ODI-I for corporate and personal guarantees and the annual performance reports for 2015, 2016, and

2017. We submitted our reply to the Notice on December 30, 2019, stating that there was no delay in the

submission of both (i) and (ii), mentioned above by the Company and the delay was on account of technical

issues faced by the AD Bank and made an application to the RBI for compounding the offences on January 6,

2020. Subsequently we paid the compounding fees of ₹0.17 million and intimated the RBI, and have not received

any further notices or communication from the RBI since then.

Similarly, the articles of association of our Qatari Subsidiary, Kalyan Jewellers LLC, Qatar, provides share

capital of such subsidiary to be QAR 200,000. However, the share capital reflected in the commercial

registration certificate of Qatari Subsidiary is QAR 250,000. We are in the process of rectifying this discrepancy

and any failure to do so may subject us to penalties under Qatari laws. In addition, the accumulated losses of our

subsidiary in Qatar was QAR 26,680,462. Under Qatari laws if the company’s losses exceed 50% of the capital

of the company, the partners should either dissolve the Company or increase its capital. While we have initiated

the process of increasing the share capital of our Qatari subsidiary, any failure to do so could have an adverse

impact on our operations in Qatar. There can be no assurance that any future non-compliances will not result in

the application of any penalties or arise again, or that we will be able to rectify or mitigate any such non-

compliances, in a timely manner or at all.

46. The auditors’ report for Fiscal 2020 of two of our subsidiaries in the Middle East, Kalyan Jewellers L.L.C

and Kalyan Jewellers FZE, include an explanatory paragraph which draws attention to a matter of

emphasis.

The auditors’ report for Fiscal 2020 of two of our subsidiaries in the Middle East, Kalyan Jewellers L.L.C and

Kalyan Jewellers FZE draw attention to a matter of emphasis which describes that Kalyan Jewellers FZE

recorded losses for Fiscal 2020 and the uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic may impact Kalyan Jewellers

L.L.C’s and Kalyan Jewellers FZE’s ability to meet their respective obligations when they fall due. In addition,

Kalyan Jewellers LLC and Kalyan Jewellers FZE recorded negative cash flows from investing activities as they

opened new showrooms in UAE in Fiscal 2020 and Kalyan Jewellers LLC also recorded negative cash flows

from financing activities as it repaid a loan in Fiscal 2020.

However, their respective financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as our Company has

confirmed that it will provide financial support to these companies to enable them to meet their obligations when

they fall due. Any failure by our Company to meet these obligations could have an adverse impact on the

operations of Kalyan Jewellers L.L.C and Kalyan Jewellers FZE, which could in turn have an adverse impact on

our financial condition and results of operations.

47. We have received notice from the Directorate General of Civil Aviation, Government of India in relation

to our private category aircraft operations, any adverse outcome of which may adversely affect us and/or

our Directors under applicable laws.

Pursuant to letter dated October 15, 2020, the Directorate General of Civil Aviation, Government of India

(“DGCA”) directed our Company to submit an explanation on the induction of directors on our Board without

prior security clearance. Further, pursuant to letter dated November 23, 2020, the DGCA has allowed our

51

Company to resume flight operations under private category subject to grant of security clearance to our Board.

If an adverse order is passed in this matter against us, or if the Directors on our Board who were inducted without

prior security clearance, do not receive the same, our private category aviation operations may be suspended or

such Directors may be subject to removal from our Board. For details, see “Outstanding Litigation and Material

Developments – Litigation involving our Company - Actions by statutory or regulatory authorities against our

Company” on page 395.

48. Our Promoters, certain of our Directors and Key Managerial Personnel hold Equity Shares in our

Company and are therefore interested in our Company's performance in addition to their remuneration

and reimbursement of expenses.

Mr. T.S. Kalyanaraman, our Promoter, Chairman and Managing Director, Mr. T.K. Seetharam, our Promoter,

whole-time Director, Mr. T.K. Ramesh, our Promoter, whole-time Director, and Mr. Sanjay Raghuraman, one of

our Key Managerial Personnel are interested in our Company to the extent of their shareholding in our Company,

as well as to the extent of any dividends, bonuses or other distributions on such Equity Shares, in addition to any

regular remuneration, benefits or reimbursement of expenses as may be payable to them. We cannot assure you

that our Promoters, Directors and Key Managerial Personnel will exercise their rights as shareholders to the

benefit and best interest of our Company. For further details, see “Our Management – Interest of Directors” and

“Our Management – Interest of Key Managerial Personnel” and “Our Promoters and Promoter Group – Nature

and extent of interest of our Promoters” on pages 194, 197 and 199, respectively.

49. We face competition in the markets in which we operate and may not be able to effectively compete in the

future.

The markets in which we operate are competitive. Our competitors include both organised pan-India jewellers as

well as unorganised local players in the various markets in which we operate. See “Industry Overview – Retailers

in the Indian Jewellery Market” on page 131. Some of our competitors have achieved significant recognition for

their brand names or have considerable financial, distribution, marketing, bargaining power with suppliers and

other resources. Industry consolidation, either by virtue of mergers and acquisitions or by a shift in market power

among competitors, may accentuate these trends. In addition, some of our competitors in smaller local markets

have advantages of having strong reputations and established trust with customers in their local markets, which

could be difficult for us to challenge or replicate in a sustained manner in the future.

We believe that our principal competitive factors include brand name, product style, product range, quality,

display, price transparency, personalised service to our customers, scalability of production, store location,

designs suited to local preferences, advertising and promotion. We cannot give any assurances that we will be

able to compete successfully on all of these factors against existing or future competitors in the future.

To compete effectively and to attract customers in diverse markets, we must continue to market and

competitively price our products, and we may experience downward pricing pressures, increased marketing

expenditures and loss of market share. Within this competitive pricing environment, we may, nevertheless, be

forced to raise prices due to rising costs of goods sold, such as gold, silver and other raw material costs, labour

costs or other factors beyond our control. If we implement significant price increases across a wide range of our

products, the impact on our earnings will depend on, among other factors, the pricing by competitors of similar

products and the response by customers to higher prices. Such price increases may reduce the quantity of

products we sell and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Other consumer goods and services compete with jewellery for consumers’ expenditure. Therefore, the price of

jewellery relative to other consumer goods and services influences the proportion of our customers’ personal

expenditure that is spent on jewellery. If our customers perceive our jewellery to be expensive compared to

competing products and services, this could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and

financial condition.

50. We have issued Equity Shares at prices that may be lower than the Offer Price in the last 12 months.

We have issued and allotted 98,857,435 Equity Shares to Highdell at a price of ₹ 50.58 on March 4, 2021,

pursuant to conversion of 119,047,619 CCPS held by Highdell. Such issuance by our Company was at a price

which may be lower than the Offer Price, For further details, see “Capital Structure – Notes to capital structure –

Share capital history of our Company – History of Equity Share capital of our Company” on page 85.

External Risks

51. We may be subject to fluctuations in prices or any unavailability of the raw materials that we use in our

products.

Our principal raw material is gold. Our purchase of gold represents the largest component of our expenses, and

fluctuations in the price of gold can have an effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We also use diamonds, other precious and semi-precious stones, pearls, platinum, silver and other raw materials,

including various alloys to create our jewellery, which are also subject to price fluctuations.

The supply of gold in the global market consists of a combination of new mine production and existing stocks of

bullion and fabricated gold held by governments, public and private financial institutions, industrial

organizations and private individuals.

Gold prices may be affected by a number of factors such as industrial and jewellery demand, lending, sales and

purchases of gold by government agencies, including central banks, multilateral institutions that hold gold and

other proprietary trading, and the sales of recycled gold, levels of gold production, production costs and

disruptions in major gold-producing nations. Gold prices may also be affected by factors resulting from how the

gold markets are structured, such as non-concurrent trading hours of gold markets and, at times, rapid short-term

changes in supply and demand because of speculative trading activities. Other economic factors affecting the price

of gold include the structure of, and confidence in, the global monetary system, expectations of the rate of

inflation, the relative strength of, and confidence in, the U.S. dollar (the currency in which the price of gold is

generally quoted), interest rates, gold borrowing and lending rates, and global or regional economic, political,

regulatory, judicial or other events as well as wars and political and other upheavals. In our experience, volatility

in the price of gold could have a negative effect on customer demand for gold jewellery in the short-term.

While a significant percentage of our raw materials are commodities, attainable through a variety of sources, if

the availability of, our access to, or the cost of purchasing certain quality raw materials that we require for our

products is adversely affected (for example, due to a decrease in the number of suppliers of such materials, or a

reduction in the overall availability of such materials, whether due to a lack of supply, the loss of a supply contract,

increased demand from our competitors or fluctuations in world market prices), we may have to pay more for, or

be unable to acquire, these raw materials. For instance, diamonds are used in certain of our jewellery and a

majority of the world’s supply of rough diamonds is controlled by a small number of diamond mining firms. As a

result, any decisions made to restrict the supply of rough diamonds by these firms to our suppliers could

substantially impair our ability to acquire diamonds at commercially reasonable prices, if at all. In addition,

diamond prices are also impacted by prices set by the Diamond Trading Company, import duties and currency

fluctuations. Furthermore, our arrangements with our suppliers of raw materials do not provide for minimum

guarantees of supply. Any adverse changes in the supply of raw materials required for our products, may require

us to increase prices or stop producing certain products and could materially adversely impact our business,

results of operations and financial condition.

We employ various techniques to hedge our gold inventory to protect us from price fluctuations, including the

use of gold metal loans, forward contracts and options, but there can be no assurance that our hedging strategy

will adequately protect our results of operations from the effects of fluctuations in the prices of gold either in the

short- or long-term. Further, the option to hedge commodity price risk for gold, gems and precious stones in

overseas markets is currently not available in light of the restriction imposed by RBI on such hedging, through

the ‘Hedging of Commodity Price Risk and Freight Risk in Overseas Markets (Reserve Bank) Directions’,

bearing No.: RBI A.P. (DIR Series) Circular No. 19, dated March 12, 2018. In addition, no established hedging

instruments are available for some of the raw materials, other than gold, that we use in our products.

Unavailability of the raw materials we require or an increase in the prices of such raw materials together with an

inability to transfer such increased costs to our end-consumers may have a material adverse effect on our

business, results of operations and financial condition.

52. Natural disasters, fires, epidemics, pandemics, acts of war, terrorist attacks, civil unrest and other events

could materially and adversely affect our business.

Natural disasters (such as typhoons, flooding and earthquakes), epidemics, pandemics such as COVID-19, acts of

war, terrorist attacks and other events, many of which are beyond our control, may lead to economic instability,

including in India, the Middle East or globally, which may in turn materially and adversely affect our business,

financial condition and results of operations. For example, we were impacted by the floods in Kerala in Fiscal

2019 as a result of which we had to temporarily close some of our showrooms and “My Kalyan” centres in south

India which resulted in a decline in our cash flows and revenues during that period.

53

Our operations may be adversely affected by fires, natural disasters and/or severe weather, which can result in

damage to our property or inventory and generally reduce our productivity and may require us to evacuate

personnel and suspend operations.

Any terrorist attacks or civil unrest as well as other adverse social, economic and political events in India or the

Middle East could have a negative effect on us. Such incidents could also create a greater perception that

investment in Indian companies involves a higher degree of risk and could have an adverse effect on our business

and the price of the Equity Shares.

A number of countries in Asia, including India, as well as countries in other parts of the world, are susceptible to

contagious diseases and, for example, have had confirmed cases of diseases such as the highly pathogenic H7N9,

H5N1 and H1N1 strains of influenza in birds and swine and more recently, the COVID-19 virus. Certain

countries in Southeast Asia have reported cases of bird-to-human transmission of avian and swine influenza,

resulting in numerous human deaths. A worsening of the current outbreak of COVID-19 virus or future

outbreaks of COVID-19 virus, avian or swine influenza or a similar contagious disease could adversely affect the

Indian economy and economic activity in the region. As a result, any present or future outbreak of avian or swine

influenza or other contagious disease could have a material adverse effect on our business and the trading price

of the Equity Shares. See “ - The recent outbreak of the novel coronavirus could have a significant effect on our

results of operations, and could negatively impact our business, revenues, financial condition and results of

operations” for risks related to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operations.”

53. Introduction of new value added tax regimes into the GCC may adversely affect our business and

financial performance.

Value-added tax (“VAT”) was introduced in Saudi Arabia and the UAE from January 1, 2018, in Bahrain from

January 1, 2019, and is expected to be implemented in Oman effective from 16 April 2021. It is expected that

the other GCC States will implement VAT over the course of the next two years.

The GCC VAT Framework Agreement sets out broad principles to be followed by all the GCC States, while

affording individual States some discretion to adopt a different VAT treatment in respect of certain matters.

Each GCC State has or is expected to issue its own domestic legislation to implement VAT, based on the

underlying principles in the GCC VAT Framework Agreement.

The GCC VAT Framework Agreement provides that the supply of investment metals – as defined in the GCC

VAT Framework Agreement – and the first supply after extraction of gold, silver and platinum is zero-rated for

VAT. However, the GCC states have introduced or may introduce additional conditions for the VAT zero rate to

apply.

Where the VAT zero rate does not apply, our supplies are generally subject to VAT at the standard rate of 5%

(15% in Saudi Arabia). Unless we decide to internally absorb the cost of VAT (which would reduce our profit

margin), our sale prices increase. Increased sale prices may cause the demand for our products to decrease.

In addition, there is a risk that GCC countries that already have introduced VAT increase the VAT rate in the

future, in the same way as Saudi Arabia increased the standard rate of VAT from 5% to 15% since July 1, 2020.

In addition, whilst VAT should not generally be a cost to our business, we are exposed to significant compliance

obligations. These obligations increase our compliance costs as we have to ensure that we collect and remit the

VAT to the tax authorities and otherwise comply with the VAT reporting requirements.

54. Adverse general economic environment in the GCC may result in increased taxes and reduced financial

performance

Due to the COVID-19 outbreak and reduced oil prices, several GCC States are facing challenges to maintain

balanced budgets. As a response, there is a risk that GCC States may adopt measures aimed at reducing public

spending and/or introducing new taxes, expanding the tax base and increasing tax rates. The introduction of new

taxes, expansion of the tax base or increase in the tax rate could affect our financial performance.

Governments of the GCC countries have implemented a series of measures with the aim to curb the spread of

COVID-19, including temporary curfews and lockdowns, which have negatively affected the level of economic

activity. In addition, with the aim to support the economy, they introduced certain stimulus packages including a

number of COVID-19 tax relief measures. The combined effect of the decline in the economic activity and the

governmental economic relief measures have resulted in the GCC countries incurring budget deficits. There is a

54

risk that the GCC countries may adopt additional measures with the aim to reduce public spending and generate

additional revenue through the introduction of new taxes, expansion of the tax base and increasing tax rates. If

these additional measures are taken, it would likely affect our financial performance.

The slowdown of the global economic activity due to COVID-19 resulted in a worldwide decline in the demand

for oil. Given that the economy of the GCC countries relies on exports of oil and oil-related products to a

significant extent, reduced exports of oil and reduced prices for oil have negatively affected the economy of these

countries and their public revenue, which has contributed to the budget deficits. There is a risk that the GCC

countries may adopt additional measures with the aim to reduce public spending and generate additional revenue

through the introduction of new taxes, expansion of the tax base and increasing tax rates. If these additional

measures are taken, it would likely affect our financial performance.

55. Tax changes introduced at short notice.

The tax legal framework is under continuous evolution throughout the GCC countries. In recent times,

amendments to tax laws have been introduced at short notice. For instance, on 10 May 2020 the Saudi Ministry

of Finance announced that the standard rate of Value Added Tax would increase from 5% to 15%, effective from

1 July 2020. Similarly, in Saudi Arabia the introduction of a 5% Real Estate Transfer Tax was publicly

announced on 1 October 2020, the law introducing such tax was enacted on 2 October 2020 and such tax came

into force on 4 October 2020. While we do not have operations in Saudi Arabia specifically, the introduction of

new taxes or the amendment or increase of existing taxes at short notice in any of the GCC countries may affect

our ability to make the necessary adjustments in terms of accounting, IT systems, pricing, invoicing, tax

reporting and other matters in due time, which may result in errors and in increased tax liabilities. Increased tax

liabilities could affect our financial performance.

56. Changing regulations in India could lead to new compliance requirements that are uncertain.

The regulatory environment in which we operate is evolving and is subject to change. The GoI may implement

new laws or other regulations that could affect the jewellery industry, which could lead to new compliance

requirements. New compliance requirements could increase our costs or otherwise adversely affect our business,

financial condition and results of operations. Further, the manner in which new requirements will be enforced or

interpreted can lead to uncertainty in our operations and could adversely affect our operations. For instance, the

RBI has permitted nominated banks to import gold for purposes of extending metal gold loans to domestic

jewellery manufacturers subject to certain conditions, including that the tenor of the gold loans (which can be

decided by the nominated banks) does not exceed 180 days from the date of procurement of gold and the interest

charged to the borrowers is linked to the international gold rates. Accordingly, any adverse regulatory change in

this regard could lead to fluctuation of prices of raw materials and thereby increase our operational cost.

Additionally, our metal gold loans are subject to specific conditions imposed by the Ministry of Commerce and

Industry, GoI and the RBI. In the event of any adverse regulatory development or in the event that we are

otherwise not able to secure such gold loans, we may not be able to benefit from such low interest rates or the

ability to fix the price within the specified time frame at the same price at which we sell gold jewellery to our

customers. Further, the RBI by way of its notification dated April 2, 2014 had prescribed, among other things,

additional credibility requirements for manufacturers utilizing metal gold loans.

For example, as of July 1, 2017, a national goods and service tax (“GST”), in India replaced taxes levied by

central and state governments with a unified tax regime in respect of the supply of goods and services for all of

India, which resulted in changes to India’s jewellery industry. Currently, the GST rate for jewellery is 3%, but it

could be subject to change going forward. Any such changes to the GST rate or rules and regulations

surrounding GST and the related uncertainties with respect to the implementation of GST may have a material

adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Further, as GST is implemented, there can be no assurance that we will not be required to comply with additional

procedures or obtain additional approvals and licenses from the government and other regulatory bodies or that

they will not impose onerous requirements and conditions on our operations. With the implementation of GST,

we are obligated to pass on any benefits accruing to us as result of the transition to GST to the consumer thereby

limiting our benefits. In order for us to utilise input credit under GST, the entire value chain has to be GST-

compliant, including us. While we are and will continue to adhere to the GST rules and regulations, there can be

no assurance that our suppliers and dealers will do so. Any such failure may result in increased cost on account

of non-compliance with the GST and may adversely affect our business and results of operations.

55

The Finance Act, 2020 (“Finance Act”), has, amongst others things, provided a number of amendments to the

direct and indirect tax regime, including, without limitation, a simplified alternate direct tax regime and that

dividend distribution tax (“DDT”), will not be payable in respect of dividends declared, distributed or paid by a

domestic company after March 31, 2020, and accordingly, such dividends would not be exempt in the hands of

the shareholders, both resident as well as non-resident and likely be subject to tax deduction at source. The

Company may or may not grant the benefit of a tax treaty (where applicable) to a non-resident shareholder for

the purposes of deducting tax at source from such dividend. Investors should consult their own tax advisors about

the consequences of investing or trading in the Equity Shares.

Similarly, changes in other laws may require additional compliances and/or result in us incurring additional

expenditure. For instance, the Government of India has notified four labour codes which are yet to come into

force as on the date of this Prospectus, namely, (i) the Code on Wages, 2019, (iii) the Code on Social Security,

2020; and (iv) the Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code, 2020. Such codes will replace the

existing legal framework governing rights of workers and labour relations. Once these codes are in force, we

may be required to incur additional expenditure to ensure compliance with them.

Further, a draft of the Personal Data Protection Bill, 2019 has been introduced before the Lok Sabha on

December 11, 2019, which is currently being referred to a joint parliamentary committee by the Parliament. We

may incur increased costs and other burdens relating to compliance with such new requirements, which may also

require significant management time and other resources, and any failure to comply may adversely affect our

business, results of operations and prospects. Uncertainty in the applicability, interpretation or implementation of

any amendment to, or change in, governing law, regulation or policy, including by reason of an absence, or a

limited body, of administrative or judicial precedent may be time consuming as well as costly for us to resolve

and may impact the viability of our current businesses or restrict our ability to grow our businesses in the future.

57. A downgrade in ratings of India, may affect the trading price of the Equity Shares.

Our borrowing costs and our access to the debt capital markets depend significantly on the credit ratings of India.

India’s sovereign rating decreased from Baa2 with a “negative” outlook to Baa3 with a “negative” outlook by

Moody’s and from BBB- with a “stable” outlook to BBB- with a “negative” outlook (Fitch) in June 2020; and

from BBB “stable” to BBB “negative” by DBRS in May 2020. India’s sovereign ratings from S&P is BBB- with

a “stable” outlook. Any further adverse revisions to India’s credit ratings for domestic and international debt by

international rating agencies may adversely impact our ability to raise additional financing and the interest rates

and other commercial terms at which such financing is available, including raising any overseas additional

financing. A downgrading of India’s credit ratings may occur, for example, upon a change of government tax or

fiscal policy, which are outside our control. This could have an adverse effect on our ability to fund our growth

on favorable terms or at all, and consequently adversely affect our business and financial performance and the

price of the Equity Shares.

58. Political changes could adversely affect economic conditions in India.

Our Company is incorporated in India and derives the majority of its revenue from operations in India and the

majority of its assets are located in India. Consequently, our performance and the market price of the Equity

Shares may be affected by interest rates, government policies, taxation, social and ethnic instability and other

political and economic developments affecting India.

Factors that may adversely affect the Indian economy, and hence our results of operations, may include:

 the macroeconomic climate, including any increase in Indian interest rates or inflation;

 any exchange rate fluctuations, the imposition of currency controls and restrictions on the right to

convert or repatriate currency or export assets;

 any scarcity of credit or other financing in India, resulting in an adverse effect on economic conditions

in India and scarcity of financing for our expansions;

 prevailing income conditions among Indian customers and Indian corporations;

 epidemic, pandemic or any other public health in India or in countries in the region or globally,

including in India’s various neighbouring countries;

56

 volatility in, and actual or perceived trends in trading activity on, India’s principal stock exchanges;

 changes in India’s tax, trade, fiscal or monetary policies;

 political instability, terrorism or military conflict in India or in countries in the region or globally,

including in India’s various neighbouring countries;

 occurrence of natural or man-made disasters;

 prevailing regional or global economic conditions, including in India’s principal export markets;

 other significant regulatory or economic developments in or affecting India or its consumption sector;

 international business practices that may conflict with other customs or legal requirements to which we

are subject, including anti-bribery and anti-corruption laws;

 protectionist and other adverse public policies, including local content requirements, import/export

tariffs, increased regulations or capital investment requirements;

 logistical and communications challenges;

 downgrading of India’s sovereign debt rating by rating agencies;

 difficulty in developing any necessary partnerships with local businesses on commercially acceptable

terms or on a timely basis; and

 being subject to the jurisdiction of foreign courts, including uncertainty of judicial processes and

difficulty enforcing contractual agreements or judgments in foreign legal systems or incurring additional

costs to do so.

Any slowdown or perceived slowdown in the Indian economy, or in specific sectors of the Indian economy,

could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition and the price of the Equity

Shares.

59. Financial instability in other countries may cause increased volatility in Indian financial markets.

The Indian market and the Indian economy are influenced by economic and market conditions in other countries,

including conditions in the United States, Europe and certain emerging economies in Asia. Financial turmoil in

Asia, Russia and elsewhere in the world in recent years has adversely affected the Indian economy. Any

worldwide financial instability may cause increased volatility in the Indian financial markets and, directly or

indirectly, adversely affect the Indian economy and financial sector and us.

Although economic conditions vary across markets, loss of investor confidence in one emerging economy may

cause increased volatility across other economies, including India. Financial instability in other parts of the world

could have a global influence and thereby negatively affect the Indian economy. Financial disruptions could

materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Furthermore, economic developments globally can have a significant impact on our principal markets of India

and the Middle East. Concerns related to a trade war between large economies may lead to increased risk

aversion and volatility in global capital markets and consequently have an impact on the Indian economy.

Following a national referendum and enactment of legislation by the government of the United Kingdom, the

United Kingdom formally withdrew from the European Union and ratified a trade and cooperation agreement

governing its future relationship with the European Union. The agreement, which is being applied provisionally

from January 1, 2021 until it is ratified by the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union,

addresses trade, economic arrangements, law enforcement, judicial cooperation and a governance framework

including procedures for dispute resolution, among other things. Because the agreement merely sets forth a

framework in many respects and will require complex additional bilateral negotiations between the United

Kingdom and the European Union as both parties continue to work on the rules for implementation, significant

57

political and economic uncertainty remains about how the precise terms of the relationship between the parties

will differ from the terms before withdrawal. For example, Brexit could give rise to increased volatility in

foreign exchange rate movements and the value of equity and debt investments.

In addition, China is one of India’s major trading partners and there are rising concerns of a possible slowdown

in the Chinese economy as well as a strained relationship with India, which could have an adverse impact on the

trade relations between the two countries. The sovereign rating downgrades for Brazil and Russia (and the

imposition of sanctions on Russia) have also added to the growth risks for these markets. These factors may also

result in a slowdown in India’s export growth. In response to such developments, legislators and financial

regulators in the United States and other jurisdictions, including India, implemented a number of policy measures

designed to add stability to the financial markets. However, the overall long-term effect of these and other

legislative and regulatory efforts on the global financial markets is uncertain, and they may not have the intended

stabilizing effects. Any significant financial disruption could have a material adverse effect on our business,

financial condition and results of operation.

These developments, or the perception that any of them could occur, have had and may continue to have a

material adverse effect on global economic conditions and the stability of global financial markets, and may

significantly reduce global market liquidity, restrict the ability of key market participants to operate in certain

financial markets or restrict our access to capital. This could have a material adverse effect on our business,

financial condition and results of operations and reduce the price of the Equity Shares.

60. If inflation rises in India, increased costs may result in a decline in profits.

Inflation rates in India have been volatile in recent years, and such volatility may continue. Increasing inflation in

India could cause a rise in the costs of rent, wages, raw materials and other expenses. If we are unable to increase

our revenues sufficiently to offset our increased costs due to inflation, it could have an adverse effect on our

business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

61. Significant differences exist between Ind AS and other accounting principles, such as Indian GAAP,

IFRS and U.S. GAAP, which may be material to investors’ assessments of our financial condition, result

of operations and cash flows.

Our restated consolidated financial information and our special purpose restated standalone financial information

for Fiscals 2018, 2019 and 2020, and for the nine months ended December 31, 2019 and 2020 included in this

Prospectus are presented in conformity with Ind AS, in each case restated in accordance with the requirements of

Section 26 of part I of the Companies Act, 2013, the SEBI ICDR Regulations and the Guidance Note on

“Reports in Company Prospectus (Revised 2019)” issued by the ICAI. Ind AS differs from accounting principles

with which prospective investors may be familiar, such as Indian GAAP, IFRS and U.S. GAAP. Accordingly,

the degree to which the Restated Consolidated Financial Information and Special Purpose Restated Standalone

Financial Information included in this Prospectus will provide meaningful information is entirely dependent on

the reader’s level of familiarity with Ind AS. Persons not familiar with Ind AS should limit their reliance on the

financial disclosures presented in this Prospectus.

62. Our business and activities may be regulated by the Competition Act, 2002 and proceedings may be

enforced against us.

The Competition Act, 2002, or the Competition Act seeks to prevent business practices that have a material

adverse effect on competition in India. Under the Competition Act, any arrangement, understanding or action in

concert between enterprises, whether formal or informal, which causes or is likely to cause a material adverse

effect on competition in India is void and attracts substantial monetary penalties. Any agreement that directly or

indirectly determines purchase or sale prices, limits or controls production, shares the market by way of

geographical area, market or number of customers in the market is presumed to have a material adverse effect on

competition in the relevant market in India and shall be void.

The Competition Act also prohibits abuse of a dominant position by any enterprise. On March 4, 2011, the GoI

notified and brought into force the combination regulation (merger control) provisions under the Competition

Act with effect from June 1, 2011. These provisions require acquisitions of shares, voting rights, assets or control

or mergers or amalgamations that cross the prescribed asset and turnover based thresholds to be mandatorily

notified to, and pre-approved by, the Competition Commission of India, or CCI. Additionally, on May 11, 2011,

the CCI issued the Competition Commission of India (Procedure for Transaction of Business Relating to

58

Combinations) Regulations, 2011, as amended, which sets out the mechanism for implementation of the merger

control regime in India.

The Competition Act aims to, among other things, prohibit all agreements and transactions, which may have an

appreciable adverse effect in India. Consequently, all agreements entered into by us could be within the purview

of the Competition Act. Further, the CCI has extra-territorial powers and can investigate any agreements, abusive

conduct or combination occurring outside of India if such agreement, conduct or combination has an appreciable

adverse effect in India. However, the effect of the provisions of the Competition Act on the agreements entered

into by us cannot be predicted with certainty at this stage. We are not currently party to any outstanding

proceedings, nor have we received notice in relation to non-compliance with the Competition Act or the

agreements entered into by us. However, if we are affected, directly or indirectly, by the application or

interpretation of any provision of the Competition Act, or any enforcement proceedings initiated by the CCI, or

any adverse publicity that may be generated due to scrutiny or prosecution by the CCI or if any prohibition or

substantial penalties are levied under the Competition Act, it would adversely affect our business, financial

condition, results of operations and prospects.

63. Our ability to raise foreign capital may be constrained by Indian law.

Under foreign exchange regulations currently in force in India, transfer of shares between non-residents and

residents are freely permitted (subject to certain exceptions), if they comply with the valuation and reporting

requirements specified by the RBI. If a transfer of shares is not in compliance with such requirements and fall

under any of the exceptions specified by the RBI, then the RBI’s prior approval is required. Additionally,

shareholders who seek to convert Rupee proceeds from a sale of shares in India into foreign currency and

repatriate that foreign currency from India require a no-objection or a tax clearance certificate from the Indian

income tax authorities. We cannot assure you that any required approval from the RBI or any other governmental

agency can be obtained on any particular terms, or at all.

In terms of Press Note 3 of 2020, dated April 17, 2020, issued by the Department for Promotion of Industry and

Internal Trade (“DPIIT”), the foreign direct investment policy has been recently amended to state that all

investments under the foreign direct investment route by entities of a country which shares land border with

India or where the beneficial owner of an investment into India is situated in or is a citizen of any such country

will require prior approval of the GoI. Further, in the event of transfer of ownership of any existing or future

foreign direct investment in an entity in India, directly or indirectly, resulting in the beneficial ownership falling

within the aforesaid restriction/ purview, such subsequent change in the beneficial ownership will also require

approval of the GoI. Furthermore, on April 22, 2020, the Ministry of Finance, GoI has also made similar

amendment to the FEMA Rules. While the term “beneficial owner” is defined under the Prevention of Money-

Laundering (Maintenance of Records) Rules, 2005 and the General Financial Rules, 2017, neither the foreign

direct investment policy nor the FEMA Rules provide a definition of the term “beneficial owner”. The

interpretation of “beneficial owner” and enforcement of this regulatory change involves certain uncertainties,

which may have an adverse effect on our ability to raise foreign capital. Further, there is uncertainty regarding

the timeline within which the said approval from the GoI may be obtained, if at all.

Risks Related to the Offer

64. Our Promoters and members of our Promoter Group will continue to hold a significant equity stake in

our Company after the Offer.

Upon completion of the Offer, our Promoters and members of our Promoter Group will hold 60.53% of our post-

Offer paid-up Equity Share capital. For details, see “Capital Structure” on page 85. Our Promoters and members

of Promoter Group will therefore have the ability to influence our operations significantly. This will include the

ability to appoint Directors to our Board and the right to approve significant actions at Board and at shareholders’

meetings including issue of Equity Shares, payment of dividends, determining business plans and mergers and

acquisitions strategies. Further, if, in the future, our Promoters and members of Promoter Group are unwilling to

dilute their equity stake in our Company and do not, or are unable to, fund us, our growth may be affected. In

addition, the trading price of the Equity Shares could be materially adversely affected if potential new investors

are disinclined to invest in us because they perceive disadvantages to a large shareholding being concentrated in

our Promoters and members of our Promoter Group.

65. We cannot assure payment of dividends on the Equity Shares in the future.

59

While our declaration of dividends is at the discretion of our Board and subject to Shareholder approval as set

out in the section entitled “Dividend Policy” on page 211, the amount of future dividend payments by our

Company, if any, will depend upon our future earnings, financial condition, cash flows, working capital

requirements, capital expenditures, applicable Indian legal restrictions and other factors. Our Company may

decide to retain all of its earnings to finance the development and expansion of its business and therefore, we

may not declare dividends on the Equity Shares. Additionally, we may, in the future, be restricted by the terms of

our loan agreements to make any dividend payments unless otherwise agreed with our lenders.

66. After the Offer, the price of the Equity Shares may become highly volatile, or an active trading market for

the Equity Shares may not develop.

The price of the Equity Shares may fluctuate after the Offer as a result of several factors, including: volatility in

the Indian and global securities market; our operations and performance; performance of our competitors;

adverse media reports about us or the jewellery industry generally; changes in the estimates of our performance

or recommendations by financial analysts; significant developments in India’s economic liberalization and

deregulation policies; and significant developments in India’s fiscal regulations. There has been no public market

for the Equity Shares of our Company and the price of the Equity Shares may fluctuate after the Offer.

If the stock price of the Equity Shares fluctuates after the Offer, investors could lose a significant part of their

investment. As of the date of this Prospectus, there is no market for the Equity Shares. Following the Offer, the

Equity Shares are expected to trade on the Stock Exchanges. There can be no assurance that active trading in the

Equity Shares will develop after the Offer or, if such trading develops, that it will continue. Investors might not

be able to sell the Equity Shares rapidly at the quoted price if there is no active trading in the Equity Shares.

67. Investors may be subject to Indian taxes arising out of income arising on the sale of the Equity Shares.

Under current Indian tax laws, unless specifically exempted, capital gains arising from the sale of equity shares

held as investments in an Indian company are generally taxable in India. Any capital gain realised on the sale of

listed equity shares on a Stock Exchange held for more than 12 months immediately preceding the date of

transfer will be subject to long term capital gains in India at the specified rates depending on certain factors, such

as whether the sale is undertaken on or off the Stock Exchanges, the quantum of gains and any available treaty

relief. Accordingly, you may be subject to payment of long term capital gains tax in India, in addition to payment

of Securities Transaction Tax (“STT”), on the sale of any Equity Shares held for more than 12 months

immediately preceding the date of transfer. STT will be levied on and collected by a domestic stock exchange on

which the Equity Shares are sold.

Further, any capital gains realised on the sale of listed equity shares held for a period of 12 months or less

immediately preceding the date of transfer will be subject to short term capital gains tax in India.

Capital gains arising from the sale of the Equity Shares will not be chargeable to tax in India in cases where

relief from such taxation in India is provided under a treaty between India and the country of which the seller is

resident and the seller is entitled to avail benefits thereunder. Generally, Indian tax treaties do not limit India’s

ability to impose tax on capital gains. As a result, residents of other countries may be liable for tax in India as

well as in their own jurisdiction on a gain upon the sale of the Equity Shares.

Similarly, any business income realised from the transfer of Equity Shares held as trading assets is taxable at the

applicable tax rates subject to any treaty relief, if applicable, to a non-resident seller.

Additionally, in terms of the Finance Act, 2018, which has been notified on March 29, 2018 with effect from

April 1, 2018, the tax payable by an assessee on the capital gains arising from transfer of long term capital asset

(introduced as section 112A of the Income-Tax Act, 1961) shall be calculated on such long-term capital gains at

the rate of 10%, where the long-term capital gains exceed ₹100,000, subject to certain exceptions in case of a

resident individuals and HUF.

Further, the Finance Act, 2019 has made various amendments in the taxation laws and has also clarified that, in

the absence of a specific provision under an agreement, the liability to pay stamp duty in case of sale of securities

through stock exchanges will be on the buyer, while in other cases of transfer for consideration through a

depository, the onus will be on the transferor. The stamp duty for transfer of securities other than debentures, on

a delivery basis is specified at 0.015% and on a non -delivery basis is specified at 0.003% of the consideration

amount. These amendments were notified on December 10, 2019 and have come into effect from July 1, 2020.

60

The Finance Act, 2020 has also provided a number of amendments to the direct and indirect tax regime,

including, without limitation, a simplified alternate direct tax regime and that DDT will not be payable in respect

of dividends declared, distributed or paid by a domestic company after March 31, 2020, and accordingly, such

dividends would not be exempt in the hands of the shareholders, both resident as well as non-resident. The

Company would be required to deduct tax at source from dividend credited, paid or distributed to its

shareholders.

The Company may or may not grant the benefit of a tax treaty (where applicable) to a non-resident shareholder

for the purposes of deducting tax at source pursuant to any corporate action including dividends.

68. The Offer Price of the Equity Shares may not be indicative of the market price of the Equity Shares after

the Offer.

The initial public offering price will be determined by the Book Building Process and may not be indicative of

prices that will prevail in the open market following the Offer. The market price of the Equity Shares may be

influenced by many factors, some of which are beyond our control, including:

 the failure of security analysts to cover the Equity Shares after this Offer, or changes in the estimates of

our performance by analysts;

 the activities of competitors and suppliers;

 future sales of the Equity Shares by our Company or our shareholders;

 investor perception of us and the industry in which we operate;

 our quarterly or annual earnings or those of our competitors;

 developments affecting fiscal, industrial or environmental regulations;

 the public’s reaction to our press releases and adverse media reports; and

 general economic conditions.

As a result of these factors, investors may not be able to resell their Equity Shares at or above the initial public

offering price. In addition, the stock market often experiences price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated or

disproportionate to the operating performance of a particular company. These broad market fluctuations and

industry factors may materially reduce the market price of the Equity Shares, regardless of our Company’s

performance. There can be no assurance that the investor will be able to resell their Equity Shares at or above the

Offer Price.

69. Investors may have difficulty enforcing foreign judgments against our Company or our management.

Our Company is a limited liability company incorporated under the laws of India. The majority of our directors

and executive officers are residents of India. A substantial portion of our Company’s assets and the assets of our

Directors and executive officers resident in India are located in India. As a result, it may be difficult for investors

to effect service of process upon us or such persons outside India or to enforce judgments obtained against our

Company or such parties outside India.

Recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments is provided for under Section 13 of the Code of Civil

Procedure, 1908 (“CPC”), on a statutory basis. Section 13 of the CPC provides that foreign judgments shall be

conclusive regarding any matter directly adjudicated upon, except: (i) where the judgment has not been

pronounced by a court of competent jurisdiction; (ii) where the judgment has not been given on the merits of the

case; (iii) where it appears on the face of the proceedings that the judgment is founded on an incorrect view of

international law or a refusal to recognise the law of India in cases to which such law is applicable; (iv) where

the proceedings in which the judgment was obtained were opposed to natural justice; (v) where the judgment has

been obtained by fraud; and (vi) where the judgment sustains a claim founded on a breach of any law then in

force in India. Under the CPC, a court in India shall, upon the production of any document purporting to be a

certified copy of a foreign judgment, presume that the judgment was pronounced by a court of competent

jurisdiction, unless the contrary appears on record. However, under the CPC, such presumption may be displaced

by proving that the court did not have jurisdiction.

India is not a party to any international treaty in relation to the recognition or enforcement of foreign judgments.

Section 44A of the CPC provides that where a foreign judgment has been rendered by a superior court, within the

meaning of that Section, in any country or territory outside of India which the GoI has by notification declared to

be in a reciprocating territory, it may be enforced in India by proceedings in execution as if the judgment had

been rendered by the relevant court in India. However, Section 44A of the CPC is applicable only to monetary

decrees not being of the same nature as amounts payable in respect of taxes, other charges of a like nature or of a

61

fine or other penalties. Some jurisdictions including the United Kingdom, UAE, Singapore and Hong Kong have

been declared by the GoI to be reciprocating countries for the purposes of Section 44A of the CPC.

The United States and India do not currently have a treaty providing for reciprocal recognition and enforcement

of judgments, other than arbitration awards, in civil and commercial matters. Therefore, a final judgment for the

payment of money rendered by any federal or state court in the United States on civil liability, whether or not

predicated solely upon the federal securities laws of the United States, would not be enforceable in India.

However, the party in whose favour such final judgment is rendered may bring a new suit in a competent court in

India based on a final judgment that has been obtained in the United States. The suit must be brought in India

within three years from the date of the judgment in the same manner as any other suit filed to enforce a civil

liability in India.

Further, there may be considerable delays in the disposal of suits by Indian courts. It is unlikely that a court in

India would award damages on the same basis as a foreign court if an action was brought in India. Furthermore,

it is unlikely that an Indian court would enforce a foreign judgment if that court were of the view that the amount

of damages awarded was excessive or inconsistent with public policy or Indian practice. It is uncertain as to

whether an Indian court would enforce foreign judgments that would contravene or violate Indian law. However,

a party seeking to enforce a foreign judgment in India is required to obtain approval from the RBI under the

FEMA to execute such a judgment or to repatriate any amount recovered.

70. Holders of Equity Shares could be restricted in their ability to exercise pre-emptive rights under Indian

law and could thereby suffer future dilution of their ownership position.

Under the Companies Act, 2013 a company incorporated in India must offer holders of its Equity Shares pre-

emptive rights to subscribe and pay for a proportionate number of Equity Shares to maintain their existing

ownership percentages prior to the issuance of any new Equity Shares, unless the preemptive rights have been

waived by the adoption of a special resolution by holders of three-fourths of the Equity Shares who have voted

on such resolution. However, if the law of the jurisdiction that you are in does not permit the exercise of such

pre-emptive rights without us filing an offering document or registration statement with the applicable authority

in such jurisdiction, you will be unable to exercise such pre-emptive rights unless we make such a filing. We

may elect not to file a registration statement in relation to pre-emptive rights otherwise available by Indian law to

you. To the extent that you are unable to exercise pre-emptive rights granted in respect of the Equity Shares, you

may suffer future dilution of your ownership position and your proportional interests in us would be reduced.

The Net Proceeds from the Fresh Issue are proposed to be utilized towards the following objects:

Further, our Company expects to receive the benefits of listing of the Equity Shares, including to enhance our

The requirement and deployment of funds as indicated above are based on our internal management estimates,

prevailing market conditions and have not been appraised by any bank or financial institution. We may have to

revise our funding requirements and deployment from time to time on account of various factors, such as,

change in cost, financial and market conditions, business and strategy and interest/exchange rate fluctuations or

other external factors, which may not be within the control of our management. This may entail rescheduling

and revising the planned expenditure and funding requirement and increasing or decreasing the expenditure for a

particular purpose from the planned expenditure at the discretion of our management, subject to compliance

with applicable law. For details, see “Risk Factors –Our management will have broad discretion over the use of

the Net Proceeds” on page 48.

Our Company proposes to deploy the entire Net Proceeds towards the aforementioned objects during Fiscal

2022. In the event, our Company is unable to utilise the Net Proceeds per the estimated schedule of deployment

due to any reason, including, inter alia, (i) economic and business conditions; (ii) timely completion of the

98

Offer; (iii) market conditions outside the control of our Company; and (iv) any other commercial considerations,

the remaining Net Proceeds shall be utilised (in part or full) in subsequent Fiscals as may be determined by our

Company, in accordance with applicable laws.

In case of any surplus after utilization of the Net Proceeds towards the aforementioned objects, we may use such

surplus towards general corporate purposes, provided that the total amount to be utilized towards general

corporate purposes does not exceed 25% of the gross proceeds from the Fresh Issue in accordance with

applicable law. Further, in case of any variations in the actual utilisation of funds earmarked towards the objects

set forth above, then any increased fund requirements for a particular object may be financed by surplus funds

(subject to utilisation towards general corporate purposes does not exceeding 25% of the gross proceeds from

the Fresh Issue), if any, available in respect of the other objects for which funds are being raised in this Offer. In

case of a shortfall in raising requisite capital from the Net Proceeds towards meeting the aforementioned objects,

we may explore a range of options including utilising our internal accruals and seeking additional debt from

existing and future lenders. We believe that such alternate arrangements would be available to fund any such

shortfalls.

Details of the Objects

1. Funding working capital requirements of our Company

We propose to utilise ₹ 6,000 million from the Net Proceeds to fund our Company’s working capital

requirements. Our Company’s business is working capital intensive and we fund the majority of our working

capital requirements in the ordinary course of our business from our internal accruals, equity and financing from

banks by way of working capital facilities including gold metal loans. Our Company requires working capital

primarily for financing and/or replenishment of the inventory in the showrooms.

Macroeconomic Overview of India

Currently, India ranks fifth in the world in terms of nominal gross domestic product (“GDP”) and is the third

largest economy in the world in terms of purchasing power parity (“PPP”). It is estimated that India will be in

top three global economies by Fiscal 2050.

GDP Ranking of Key Global Economies (2018)

Source: World Bank data, Technopak Analysis

India's real GDP has sustained an average growth of 6% to 7% since Fiscal 1991 and India had become the

fastest-growing G-20 economy since Fiscal 2015, with an annual growth rate of around 7%. While India’s

economy grew at approximately 6% in Fiscal 2019, the real growth rate declined to 4% in Fiscal 2020 and is

estimated to decline to -10.3% in Fiscal 2021 due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic which led to the

imposition of lockdowns in the last quarter of Fiscal 2020 causing a contraction in the economy. The impact of

COVID-19 has caused several large economies to shrink. It is expected that India’s GDP will resume its pre-

COVID-19 momentum by Fiscal 2022.

Since Fiscal 2005, the Indian economy’s growth rate has been twice that of the world economy and it is

expected to sustain this superior growth momentum in the long-term. In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic,

India's nominal GDP is expected to marginally contract by approximately 5% in Fiscal 2021 but is expected to

bounce back and reach US$4.3 trillion by Fiscal 2025.

White boxes at the top refer to India’s GDP rank on a global basis

The annual growth rate for Fiscal 1991 to Fiscal 2005 was approximately 13% and this increased to

approximately 14% for Fiscal 2005 to Fiscal 2020. While in the short-term, consumption will suffer a setback, it

is expected to reach to approximately US$2.4 trillion by Fiscal 2025. The expected drop in consumption is

mainly because of consumer sentiment being weak both due to health and economic reasons. Since structurally

all the other variables remain the same, the quantum of consumption will not take long to revive. These

inferences are based on the following few trends that will continue to drive India’s domestic consumption in the

long-term:

 Positive demographics with dropping dependency ratio leading to higher share of working population;

 Urbanization contributing to disproportionately higher share of urban expenditure on merchandise and

services; and

 Policy reforms increasing farm incomes implying positive consumption trends in rural India.

In Fiscal 2019, Private Final Consumption Expenditure (“PFCE”) in India accounted for approximately 59% of

GDP. This is much higher than China (approximately 39%) and comparable to the United States (approximately

68%).

Growth Drivers: Favourable Demographics, Urbanization and Policy Reforms

India’s medium to long term growth trajectory and its positive impact on private consumption will be

determined by an inter-play of demographics, urbanization and policy reforms.

Young population

India has one of the youngest populations globally compared to other leading economies. The median age in

India in 2021 was 28.1 years compared to 38.1 years and 37.4 years in the United States and China,

respectively, and is expected to remain under 30 years until 2030.

The size of India's young population is contributing to a decline in the dependence ratio (the ratio of dependent

population size compared to the working-age population size (15 to 64 years of age)), which has decreased from

64% in Fiscal 2000 to 50% in Fiscal 2018. This trend is expected to lead to rising income levels per household

as well as higher levels of discretionary expenditure. A substantial rise in India’s working age population from

36% in Fiscal 2000 to 50% in Fiscal 2019 is expected to continue sustaining the growth momentum of the

Indian economy and lead to rising income levels in the long-term. The younger segment of the population is

naturally pre-disposed to adopting new trends and exploration given their educational profile and their exposure

to media and technology, which presents an opportunity for domestic consumption in the form of branded

products and organized retail.

Women in the workforce

A number of factors, such as improving education opportunities, better health care and greater media focus are

enabling women in India, in both urban and rural areas, to exercise greater influence on their families and

society as a whole. From 2005 through 2015, the enrolment rate of girls in secondary education increased from

45.3% to 81%. Young women have bridged the gap in higher education too: their enrolment rate in 2018-19

stands at almost 26.4% while that of young men is 26.3%.

These changes are expected to have a broad impact on societal factors, including workforce demographics and

economic independence for women. The overall share of women workforce in the service sector has increased

from approximately 17% in 2010 to approximately 24% in 2018. This increase of women in the workforce will

see a rise in decision making power and thereby spending by women.

Urbanization

India has the world’s second largest urban population in absolute terms at 472 million in Fiscal 2019, second

only to China. However, only 34.5% of India's population is classified as urban compared to a global average of

54%. It is the pace of India’s urbanization that is a key trend to note and has positive implications on India’s

economic growth. The trend of urbanisation is expected to continue with approximately 50% of India's

population expected to be living in urban centres by 2050, and contributing to approximately 80% of India's

GDP.

Increasing Urbanization

Urbanization is also catalysing two trends that are impacting India's domestic consumption habits:

Growing middle class

Households with annual earnings between US$5,000 and US$10,000 have grown at a CAGR of 12% from

Fiscal 2012 to Fiscal 2018. Households with annual earnings between US$10,000 and US$50,000 have grown at

a CAGR of 25% between Fiscal 2012 and Fiscal 2018. It is estimated that 23% of the entire global middle class

will be from India by Fiscal 2030. An increase in the number of households with annual earnings of US$10,000

to US$50,000 has been leading to an increase in spending on food and beverages, apparel & accessories, luxury

products, consumer durables and across other consumption categories.

In India, growth in the number of households exceeds population growth, which indicates an increase in

nuclearization in India. According to the 2011 census, 74% of urban households have five or less members,

compared to 65% in 2001. It is expected that that smaller households with higher disposable income will lead to

a greater expenditure in, among other categories, jewellery, fashion, packaged food and food services.

Almost equivalent to 10% of GDP, the stimulus package announced by the Indian government contains 1.2% of

direct stimulus measures and the remaining 8.8% includes liquidity support measures and credit guarantees.

Investments for infrastructure development and credit facilitation for agriculture, horticulture, fisheries, animal

husbandry and food processing industries and support to other MSMEs through public sector expenditure entails

a long-term investment and dividend cycle. As it commences, it will attract participation from private players

and create more job opportunities resulting in an uptick in income levels and thereby consumption. The

Government of India has allocated ₹150,000 crore for investments and credit facilitation for various areas of

agriculture, horticulture, fisheries and animal husbandry. The reforms around agri-marketing (Amendment in

Essential Commodities Act, Agricultural Produce Market Committee Act, and Development of a legal

framework for contract farming) were long overdue and if implemented in the right spirit, they will bring

efficiencies in the value chain and improve value realization for farmers. These will also encourage inflow of

private investments in the food processing industry, thereby building a platform for jobs in the rural India. The

Finance Minister of India has also announced an additional ₹40,000 crore for the Mahatma Gandhi National

Rural Employment Guarantee Act scheme to create employment for the migrants who have returned home and

who are expected to stay there till the end of the monsoon. The Government had also allocated free food grains

to all the migrants for a period of two months. This was to benefit 80 million migrants and entailed an outflow

of approximately ₹3,500 crore to the central government. This Garib Kalyan Anna Yojana had been further

extended till November 2020 with the coverage expanded to over 800 million people. This is an additional cost

of over ₹90,000 crore for the government.

Indian Consumer Retail Basket And Spend Trends

India’s consumption funnel

Retail Consumption across Key Categories

In Fiscal 2020, India’s retail basket was approximately 48.5% of its private consumption and it is expected to

maintain this share in private consumption for the next five years. The food & grocery (“F&G”) segment forms

the major share of India’s merchandise retail expenditure (~66%) and is expected to remain at a similar level

through Fiscal 2025. Among non-essential categories, apparel and accessories and footwear will be worst

affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Comparatively, the situation will be better for jewellery, consumer electronics and home & living. Muted

consumer sentiment has brought down the demand of some of these products in the short-term, but some of this

is delay in demand (such as postponed weddings) and will return as the situation improves. Jewellery also has

the added benefit of being a consumption-related purchase with an investment angle and is therefore expected to

be relatively resilient versus other categories.

Expenditure on jewellery is the third highest retail category with approximately 8% in overall retail

consumption basket of India in 2020 and will become second highest by 2025 overtaking apparel and

accessories.

Factors responsible for the growth of Jewellery retail in India

 Jewellery’s/gold’s symbolic significance in India complements its investment proposition: Indians have

a strong cultural affinity to gold and its purchase is deeply ingrained in the psyche. It serves the dual

purpose of consumption (jewellery) and investment (bars/coins). Strong association of jewellery with

weddings and festivals creates a natural demand for expenditure for jewellery in India. Such an

association is not only unique to India but also offers a natural advantage to jewellery retailing that

caters to this association.

o India is a market of approximately 10 million marriages annually and this market alone is

estimated to cater to 300 to 400 tonnes of gold. The age profile of the country will continue to

sustain the high growth of weddings in India to support this demand.

o Across many parts of India, people start purchasing gold well in advance of their requirement.

They do this through advance purchase schemes and periodically buying gold in small quantities

for future weddings.

o Gold is purchased not only for the bride and groom but also for personal consumption by friends

and families.

o Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the scale of celebrations for weddings and other occasions have

become muted. Many weddings are being held on a smaller scale. Therefore, the demand for

wedding-related jewellery, which is largely price and income inelastic, has remained protected as

the jewellery component of wedding expenditures has sustained.

o Gold jewellery also carries a strong symbolic association with wealth and prosperity in India that

manifests in the form of purchasing gold jewellery during festivals and auspicious occasions such

as, Akshaya Tritiya, Navratri/Durgapuja, Karva Chauth, Onam and Diwali Dhanteras, among

others. Strong affinity of the Indian psyche towards gold jewellery over investment in bars and

coins as a trend is expected to continue in the future.

o Gold jewellery already carries an investment element which is favourably viewed by Indian

households given their propensity to save.

 Harvest Economy and Positive Implications on Rural India: The cultural association with gold

jewellery in rural India is even more pronounced than in urban India. As a result, rural India accounts

for 60% of gold jewellery demand in India, whereas its share in total retail expenditure is 50%. Farm

output, commodity prices and farm incomes therefore have strong causation with jewellery/gold

demand. There has been a policy push (budget allocation for Ministry of Agriculture was increased by

78% for Fiscal 2020) that aims to increase farm incomes through better crop productivity (soil health

cards, irrigation initiatives, reduction in cultivation cost), better price realizations (assured 50% profit

on cost of production, crop insurance, reduction in post-harvest losses), access to formal credit

(“KCC”) and efficient market access (“eNAM” connecting wholesale to agri-markets). As a response

to the COVID-19 crisis, the Government of India has announced the Aatma Nirbhar Bharat Abhiyan

Package in order to stimulate investments.

With this state intervention, adequate harvests and procurement of rabi crop and prediction of a normal

monsoon this year, the rural economy is expected to be on a faster track of recovery. This growth has

already started to reflect in the earnings announcements of various companies with businesses tied to

the rural economy (for example, tractor companies and fertilizer companies). As the condition of the

rural economy improves, an uptick would be seen in incomes, and as a consequence, expenditure

and investments in the form of gold will resume.

121

 Rising share of organized retail in Jewellery will continue: Between 2007 and 2020, jewellery retailing

in India has seen the fastest transition towards organized retailing compared to any other retail category

in India. In 2007, organized share of jewellery retail was 6% and that increased to nearly approximately

32% in 2020. In other words, in the last 13 years organized retail not only captured incremental

category demand but it has also succeeded in shifting demand away from unorganized retail in its

favour. It will continue to consolidate further as COVID-19 has started to build even more pressure on

the unorganised market and over-leveraged players with a weak balance sheet. This, combined with a

policy push, such as mandatory hallmarking and know-your-customer norms, will weed out some

unorganised players and companies lacking the financial stability to withstand this market dislocation.

For many unorganised players, liquidating their gold inventory, leveraging higher prices and

consequently shutting down operations may emerge as a more viable option since running operations

may not be sustainable going forward. Furthermore, on the demand side, consumers’ desire for a safer

shopping experience with more space, well trained store personnel and sound systems/processes that

ensure a safe retail experience will also benefit organized jewellers. The growth in organised jewellery

retail will be driven by select national and regional players with strong fundamentals who will likely

get a disproportionate share of this growth unlike organised retail in other discretionary categories

which could be more broad-based.

 Broad basing of economic growth: The retail market in major Indian states that contribute to more than

80% of India’s retail is expected to grow at a CAGR of more than nine per cent. over the next four

years (Fiscal 2021 to Fiscal 2025). Instead of the growth being skewed to few pockets, it is expected to

be uniformly spread across regions and cities. Given the high share of private consumption in India’s

GDP and roughly half of it is made up of merchandise retail, this pattern of distributive growth will

positively impact non-food related categories that already have a high share of the retail expenditure.

 The margin model of unorganized jewellery retailers has been traditionally built on opaque pricing,

bullion trading and questionable product quality. There is rampant under-caratage and lack of clarity of

gold weight. Pricing around gold jewellery and making charges are also not often captured in the price

tag. These factors inflated the transaction cost for customers for jewellery purchases and padded

companies’ margins. Organized retailers identified this pain point and undertook sustained brand

building initiatives that were aimed at filling these gaps on the plank of trust and transparency through

hallmarked jewellery and karatometers, among others. In addition, organized retail also offered better

quality merchandise, wider range/selection and better retail experience (showroom/service). This has

led to the shift of the demand from the unorganized to the organized market.

 Urbanization and migration has also catalyzed growth of organized jewellery retail. Migration patterns

broke the association of the family/neighbourhood jeweller with its captive customer base as

consumers moved to form new households and towards cities and/or towns. The share of urbanization

has increased from 28% in 2000 to 34% in 2018 and is expected to reach 37% by 2025. The number of

urban agglomerations with population of one million or more has increased from 35 in 2001 to 53 in

2011. The trend of urbanization has positively influenced consumers’ jewellery purchases to pivot

towards organized retailers as these retailers offer a plank of purity and transparency and their designs

resonate with consumers in search of trusted alternatives.

 The access to organized jewellers was quite limited beyond metros and mini-metros. The growth in

organized jewellery is marked by the transformation of local players to regional and national players

(such as Kalyan) and by the sustainable growth of corporate entities (such as Tanishq) that have kept

pace with the changing needs and evolved with the market. Today, strong organized jewellery retailers

in India have raised formal capital, and have developed capabilities to reach consumers’ doorsteps to

capture incremental demand and offer products that cater to evolving consumer sensibilities. With this

backdrop, organized jewellery retailers are poised to enable growth of jewellery’s share in India’s total

retail.

Indian Jewellery Retail Industry

The Indian jewellery retail sector’s size in Fiscal 2020 was approximately US$64 billion. The sector’s organized

retail share stood at approximately 32%, comprised of national and regional players, while the rest of jewellery

retail continues to be dominated by the unorganised segment, comprised of over 500,000 local goldsmiths and

jewellers.

Numbers in percentage represents CAGR

1 US$= INR 70, Year Indicates FY

In the wake of the COVID-19 crisis, the demand for Fiscal 2021 is projected to drop by 37% and thereafter

estimated to bounce back and grow at an accelerated CAGR of 22% for the next four years. Within the jewellery

retail industry, the organized segment is expected to de-grow by 32% whereas the unorganized segment is

expected to de-grow at 40% in Fiscal 2021.

It is expected that the larger players in the organised space will consolidate the market share away from the

unorganised segment because of weak balance sheets of the smaller players and their inability to sustain during

the lockdowns which severely constricts their ability to maintain their operations. Furthermore, on the demand

side, consumers’ desire for a safer shopping experience with larger shop space which permits social distancing,

well trained store personnel and strong systems/processes that ensure a safe retail experience will also benefit

the large organized jewellers. Consequently, some players such as the industry leaders many not face as deep a

contraction as the smaller players.

The impact on jewellery has been less severe as compared to other discretionary categories like apparel and

accessories given:

 Wedding-related element: Price and income inelasticity of wedding-related jewellery demand

underpins the sustenance of this category. Wedding and wedding-related jewellery, which constitutes

60% of India’s total demand, will remain resilient.

 Investment-related element: As gold will continue to be a safe haven asset class and be perceived to

have intrinsic value, jewellery demand is also expected to remain protected.

There will be an overall reduction in spending to compensate for income loss and in order to save for any further

uncertainty. While jewellery as a category is expected to be more resilient, the demand of daily wear and non-

wedding related occasion wear jewellery which constitutes 40% of the total demand may face some near-term

headwinds.

Health and economic concerns have reduced consumer confidence. There may be a long-lasting impact on

consumer behaviour and retailers will have to devise transformational strategies to match the changed times, re-

evaluate the store portfolio, invest in service, experience, omni-channel to serve new customers, look at newer

payment methods and manage costs through operational improvement measures.

Key trends that signify the construct of the Indian jewellery market:

Heterogeneous demand influenced by strong regional preferences

Indian consumers’ jewellery consumption is influenced by multiple factors such as region, income, cultural

notions and generally vastly differs across states. Southern states make up 40% of the Indian gold jewellery

market while the Eastern states account for 15%. Gross weight of gold worn by a bride in Kerala is more than

double the weight of gold worn by a bride in Gujarat signifying that cultural factors scores over per capital

income when it comes to regional skews observed in jewellery purchase in India. Customer service expectation

also varies from one region to other. Wedding jewellery demand in particular is influenced by local traditions

and designs. While the gross weight of an average wedding jewellery purchase is 200 gm in Uttar Pradesh, it is

350 gm in Kerala.

In the southern states of India, consumer purchasing behaviour gravitates towards traditional plain gold

jewellery where margins are typically lower. Consumers in the Northern and Western regions of India are more

receptive to studded jewellery and impulse-led lighter-weight jewellery purchases (14k, 18k jewellery) viz-a-vis

their southern counterparts. Plain gold jewellery typically has gross margins ranging from 10% to 14%, while

diamond-studded jewellery has gross margins ranging from 30% to 35%. Consequently, as the studded ratio

(studded jewellery/total revenue) goes up, profitability improves, thereby incentivising the expansion of south

focused retailers towards the north, west and east.

Demand heterogeneity is also influenced by seasonality in jewellery purchases witnessed across regions in

India. Jewellery demand peaks during the run up to marriage months such as May-June, September-November

and January. Agriculture output and monsoon influences gold demand in Tier II and Tier III towns. Rural

households invest their proceeds from harvests in gold jewellery during the months of November and

December. Demand for gold and silver jewellery goes up during auspicious religious events like

Diwali/Dhanteras in October and November and Akshaya Trithiya in April and May.

Such pronounced regional preferences also act as a strong barrier for organized retail to scale up from a regional

to a national presence, because it demands a nuanced understanding of varying consumer preferences in local

markets, an ability to market effectively to a differing audience, localized sourcing and product strategy, and

significant working capital. It is a challenge for organized players to operate at a meaningful scale in each micro

market and have reasonably large procurement volume that entice the best of the artisans in each market to work

with them. For this reason, only a few local players have managed to become regional players and fewer yet

have managed to expand nationally.

 Urbanization and migration: Rapid urbanization given economic opportunities have led to the

formation of new households and new arrivals in metros, cities and towns. Migrating consumers’

association with their family jewellers is hence disrupted and they rely on trusted brands that can offer

transparency, purity and designs.

 India’s Demographics: India has more than 65% of its population under 35 years of age and more than

229 million women aged 20 years to 49 years. Though gold based wedding and daily jewellery

continue to remain the main component of their demand these consumers are influenced by global

trends and seek studded jewellery, better designs and triggers for purchases that average out throughout

the year (for instance gifting). They are better aware and look for the assurance of quality, authenticity

and purity of jewellery during their jewellery purchase process. These shifting consumer trends offer

natural advantages to organized players who can cater to these needs.

 Price transparency and product quality: Indian jewellery consumers are becoming increasingly brand

conscious and developing greater sophistication in their jewellery preferences. They are exposed to a

variety of global and national brands for luxury products. They expect similar transparency and product

quality for their jewellery. They wish to understand the price methodology followed (cost of materials

such as gold, silver and precious stones, making charges etc.) and be assured of quality of the final

product, which can be aptly handled by organised retailers only. Players like Tanishq and Kalyan were

among the pioneers in the Indian jewellery market in adhering to the highest quality standards for

jewellery and introducing price transparency into their products.

 Service Expectations: Jewellery represents an asset with lifetime ownership and tacitly acts as an

investment asset. Therefore, consumers now expect jewellery purchases to be amply supported by

after-sales service like product buyback at fair market price, transparency in billing and product

customization, among others. Such demands necessitate services to accompany product retailing and

organized players are better placed to bundle them to address this need. Also, organized jewellers offer

readymade products which eliminated wait time for customers.

 Impact of promotional campaigns and sustained brand building effort: Organized jewellery retailing

has been on a sustained brand building trajectory since 2000. Jewellery retailers now adopt a multi-

pronged marketing approach that leverages social media, print, television, PR and radio. Organized

retailers have successfully used this approach to educate customers about purity, transparency and trust

to build their brand and that has helped them to capture the growing incremental demand.

 Retailing experience: Organized jewellery retailing today signifies ready-made ornaments, wide

product range that offers designs and selection, and a superior showroom experience that augers well

with the changing expectation of the consumers. Its ability to offer a better retailing experience has

therefore shifted jewellery consumption demand in its favour.

 Response to COVID-19: Given greater awareness of safety and security, consumers’ desire for a safer

shopping experience with more space, hygienic conditions, well trained store personnel and robust

systems/processes that ensure a safe retail experience will also benefit organized jewellers. Consumers

will continue to avoid going to crowded areas where many unorganized players typically have their

outlets.

Supply side factors

 Demonetisation: This led to the adoption of plastic/digital money in the jewellery sector. The adoption

of cashless transactions has brought in further transparency into the sector. Demonetization helped

organized players to further penetrate the wedding market and the high-value jewellery segment by

capturing market share from unorganized players whose business was predominantly based on cash.

 Goods and Services tax: The Goods and Services Tax (“GST”) with effect from July 1, 2017 brought

in greater transparency in the jewellery market by enforcing tax compliance. It favours organized

players that can manage prescribed processes

 Compulsory hallmarking of Gold Jewellery: Under-caratage has been a long-standing challenge for

jewellery retailing in India and had provided an unfair advantage to many unorganized jewellery

128

retailers who were not required to disclosure purity standards. Compulsory hallmarking which will take

effect from 2021 puts additional cost and process requirements on unorganized players and aims to

address this issue. It will lead to a further shift of business from the unorganized to the organized

jewellery segment.

 Mandatory permanent account number (“PAN”) Card on transactions above ₹200,000 with effect from

January 1, 2016 for jewellery purchase: As per government estimates, jewellery was a major

destination for undisclosed income (black money) in India. The PAN card requirement makes it

compulsory to establish the identity of the buyer which makes it difficult for unorganized retailers to

operate.

 Immunity to COVID-19: The future impact of the COVID-19 crisis would depend on how immune

businesses are to the crisis. Companies that have a strong immune system (balance sheet strength,

reliable promoters and a good product/service proposition) would continue to thrive, resulting in the

further consolidation of the market with these stronger players and increase in market share for them.

The resilience will also be reflected in the way these companies adapt to operating in the new normal.

Only some of them will be able to position themselves as responsible businesses duly following the

norms of social distancing, sanitization, and to invest in digital transformation as well as their service

proposition.

Distribution of Urban / Rural Consumption

Urban India accounts for only 40% of gold jewellery demand and the rest is contributed by rural India. Gold

ownership is higher in rural India and it rises with income levels.

The government’s intervention in reviving the rural economy through investments, agri-reforms, increasing

MNREGA allocation, provision of essential supplies and restoring opportunities for workers will improve

conditions in villages going forward and as that happens, jewellery demand will benefit both because of its

cultural significance and safety element as a store of value.

The share of organized retailing in rural jewellery retail continues to be low. This is owing to the fact that rural

demand is dispersed which increases the cost of retailing for organized retailers. Hence, organized retailers have

adopted a two-pronged approach. The first is to increase their presence beyond Tier I cities into Tier II and Tier

III towns to capture rural demand from the vicinity of these towns and therefore, organized retailers with a better

mix of stores in favour of non-tier I towns are advantaged in capturing this demand. Second, few organized

retailers have also been refining their retailing models to directly tap into the rural demand. Tanishq launched

GoldPlus in 2005 and created a presence in rural and semi-urban focused retail play in 30 towns across 5 states.

In January 2017, GoldPlus was subsumed under the Tanishq brand to consolidate Tanishq’s offering under a

single brand to cater to both rural and urban demand. Kalyan Jewellers with its 766 “My Kalyan” stores

channelizes demand partially from the rural hinterland and drives customers to the nearest Kalyan Jewellers

showroom as well as directly enrols customers into the company’s gold savings schemes.

Strong Influence of Gold in Indian Jewellery will continue with emerging sub-segments

129

India is the second largest gold market in the world. In 2018, gold demand in India stood at 760 tonnes and 70%

of this demand was utilized for jewellery. The diamond jewellery market of India accounted for approximately

13% of the total Indian jewellery market in 2018. Due to the COVID-19 crisis, consumption priorities have

changed and have been skewed in favour of need based products and services. Pure gold jewellery is seen to

have an intrinsic value and therefore is likely to get less impacted. Also, the wedding-related jewellery segment

will remain steady as weddings will continue to take place. However, the sale of studded jewellery, daily wear

and occasion wear jewellery may get deferred as other product categories which complement the new style of

living, working, socialising and travelling could take priority in the near-term.

Emerging Sub-Segments

The Indian jewellery market is strongly skewed towards fine jewellery that is signified by an ornamental look,

embellishments, and higher weight, among others. This is a direct outcome of the fact that 90% of the jewellery

sold in India caters to wedding-related wear and daily wear and only 10% was meant for fashion wear (that

signifies light weight). In a market like the United States, such a market composition is usually found to be

opposite.

However, these sub-segments within jewellery such as light weight gold, silver and studded jewellery have been

registering a consistent growth over the last 10 years and now contribute almost 10% to the total fine jewellery

segment. While jewellery in India has had a strong association with social occasions and traditions, the growth

of this segment signifies a gap that existed in the space of contemporary design sensibility and affordable price

points. Through this segment, businesses are targeting younger women with a modern outlook, often residing in

urban centres. Businesses have started to address this demand by spinning new lines of products either as

separate brands or collections. Tanishq launched its first sub-brand Mia for women with modern sensibilities in

2011 and now has 30 stores in 26 cities. Mia by Tanishq mostly sells 14k, 18k gold variants and recently it has

launched a line of silver jewellery as well. Players such as Fabindia and Amrapali are important players in the

silver jewellery segment. Platforms like Caratlane and Bluestone are also catering to the same segment.

The Indian online jewellery market is estimated to be approximately US$1.3 billion with a penetration of less

than 2% in the US$ 64 billion overall jewellery market in Fiscal 2020.

The Way Forward for E-Commerce in Jewellery Retailing

The current growth of online jewellery retailing is driven by the affordable range of low carat gold, studded and

silver jewellery that caters to urban demand in Metro cities and Tier I towns. While the daily wear segment may

also merge with this demand and open up for e-commerce especially in the urban centres, the wedding-related

segment will remain challenged for this channel given the higher ticket value and low incidence of purchase.

Mirroring the global pattern, online penetration of organised jewellery retail is likely to increase over time. Most

leading national players understand the growing importance of this trend and therefore have started to invest in

digital marketing and online sales.

Gold has special place in Indian culture. It is used for traditional purposes like marriage, religious rituals and

gifting. In India gold jewellery has an aspirational value. It serves a dual purpose of ornamentation and

investment. Selling gold in form of jewellery, bar and coins does not require a push like other lifestyle retail

categories such as footwear and apparel. There is no inventory obsolescence risk in jewellery retailing as

products can be recycled to make new ones. Jewellery being a high-ticket item, means the relative cost as the

percentage of revenue on rent, employees and promotions with respect to footwear and apparel is low. The

majority of the cost of setting up jewellery store goes into inventory.

Competitive Landscape

Tanishq (Titan Company Limited) is the leader in the Indian Jewellery market with 3.9% share of the overall

jewellery market and 12.5% share of the organized jewellery market, based on Fiscal 2019.

For the same period, Kalyan Jewellers, also one of the largest jewellery companies in India based on revenues,

had 1.8% share of the overall jewellery market and 5.9% share of the organized jewellery market.

Kalyan Jewellers is one of the largest jewellery retailers in India based on revenue as of March 31, 2020

Retailers in the Indian jewellery Market

Leading organized jewellery retailers have had a diversified growth trajectory till date. Players like Tanishq

(Titan) and Kalyan have expanded well beyond their geographies of origin to open a large number of stores

across multiple different towns and regions unlike many other organized jewellers that have remained largely

focused on certain cities, states and regions. Store format, price positioning and product offerings also differ for

players.

There are players that are focused on one region, such as Thangamayil, and Khazana in South India, PC

Chandra in East India and PN Gadgil in West India, among others. Few multi-regional players such as TBZ,

Malabar, Joyalukkas, PC Jeweller and Senco Gold are largely focused in certain regions but have expanded and

opened stores in other regions, although to a certain and limited degree.

Furthermore, only a handful, such as Titan and Kalyan have established true pan-India businesses with a

diversified footprint across the country.

Approximately 40% of India’s fine jewellery demand originates from five southern states, followed by

approximately 25% of the demand from the western states, 20% from northern states and approximately 15%

from eastern states. To categorize types of organized jewellery retailers, it is therefore imperative not only to

profile them on their stores counts across regions but to map the adequacy of their retail presence in line with

the demand distribution of jewellery purchase across the country.

Organised Players – there are four types of organized jewellery retail chains that have emerged in India:

 Entities with corporate lineage that have managed to create a national footprint of jewellery retail stores

across different regions of India. These players started with focus on metros and Tier I cities and

gradually increased their presence in Tier II and Tier III cities with a mid to premium price positioning.

Products offer uniform design across regions and focused on daily and fashion wear. This uniformity

provides them economies of scale in procurement. However, the trade-off of this positioning is their

limitation in being able to cater to regional tastes and preferences, low share of wedding-related

jewellery business (which is nearly 60% of the market demand) and limited reach in semi-urban towns

and rural areas. For these reasons, their focus going forward is to increase the share of business from

the wedding-related market and to create market reach in semi-urban and rural pockets. Tanishq by

Titan is the key such player in this space.

 The second category is retail chains founded by entrepreneurs operating in regional markets which

have been able to over time establish pan-India businesses. They have gone down the journey of

institutionalizing their companies, professionalizing their management teams and have successfully

scaled across multiple different regions within India despite starting as local jewellers. Their approach

has been to customize their product offering in each of the micro markets in which they operate. They

have a mass to mid-price positioning and a wedding-related and daily wear product skew. This helps

them to respond to regional tastes and be present in the wedding-related / daily wear space (that

contributes 90% of India’s jewellery demand). They are catering to jewellery demands of multiple

regions across India. Kalyan Jewellers is the key player in this category.

 The third category consists of local jewellers that have widened their retail footprints largely across a

specific region and whose growth is largely attributed to their focus on catering to jewellery

preferences and / or price segment in a specific region. Some of these retail chains do face the

challenge of growing beyond their core region to de-risk their regional dependence and for this reason,

few leading regional chains have successfully initiated an expansion into other regions.

 The fourth category consists of players that have ventured into gold jewellery through online retail.

These are companies that typically target high disposable income groups as their key customers. They

largely focus on designer jewellery and studded jewellery which have higher margins. These brands

established their brand value by online retail and now have opened retail/experience stores in Metros

and Tier I cities. Players like Caratlane and Bluestone are the major players in the space. These players

are on high growth trajectory and will capture a significant online share in the designer and studded

jewellery segment in next three to five years. However, many of these companies are still loss making

due to lower sales compared to organised retail chains and have high expenses.

Local Players: there are two types of ‘local players’. First are destination stores of family jewellers that cater to

the demand of a city or a town. They have a strong bridal wear focus and cater to a captive customer base from

within the city and from neighbouring suburbs and towns. They have an assortment of products across gold and

silver jewellery but the design sensibilities are restricted to local demand. On many counts of store appeal,

customer experience and after-sales support they may mirror leading regional players and only differ on their

physical store presence limited to the city. Second, are neighbourhood stores that cater to a restricted cluster

within a city or a town. These jewellers cater to the demand for daily wear and undertake higher share of

Key Trends Impacting the Jewellery Market in India

Goods and Services Tax (GST)

Since its launch on July 1, 2017, GST has replaced a number of indirect taxes and duties levied by the Central

and State governments with three types of GST, that is, central GST (“CGST”), state GST (“SGST”) and inter-

state GST (“IGST”). It has created a uniform national market. Prior to GST, taxes on gold included customs

duty of 10%, Excise duty of 1% and value-added tax of 1.2% in most states in India. Currently, taxes on gold

include customs duty of 12.5% and GST of 3%. However in the recent budget of 2021, the government reduced

the customs duty to 7.5%

Demonetization

On November 8, 2016, the Government of India announced Demonetization of ₹500 and ₹1,000 currency notes

that accounted for approximately 86% of total currency in circulation. This step was taken to curtail the shadow

economy and use of counterfeit cash to fund illegal activities. This measure had temporarily led to a cash

shortage in economy and has boosted digital transactions and the cashless economy. Demonetization helped

organized players to penetrate the wedding market and the high-value jewellery segment by capturing market

share of unorganized players, who operated mainly in cash thereby creating a level playing field. It also led to

the adoption of plastic/digital money in jewellery sector. The adoption of cashless transactions has brought in

transparency and efficiency in the sector. It incentivised unorganized players to adopt digital payments which

improved regulatory compliances by unorganized retailers. This levels the playing field and to some extent

favours organised retailers as they were already bearing the cost of regulatory compliance.

KYC Compliance

The Indian government introduced a requirement for a PAN card to purchase jewellery worth

₹200,000 and above (earlier, the threshold was ₹500,000 and above) from January 1, 2016 onwards.

This requirement removes the advantage of unorganized retailers who have a predominantly cash-

based business model for which transactions are largely untraceable from a compliance perspective. In

addition, organized retailers are better equipped to handle the processes associated with the PAN card

requirement.

Hallmarking

134

Gold serves a dual purpose of investment and ornament and is prone to contamination. Historically,

there has been 10% to 15% of gold leakage due to over-valued or under-carated purchase in India

which negatively impacts Indian gold buyers Less than half (approximately 40%) of the gold

jewellery sold in India is currently hallmarked. To overcome these challenges, hallmarking of gold

jewellery and artefacts with purity of 22 CT, 18 CT and 14 CT will be made mandatory across the

country from 2021. The Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution issued a

notification in early 2020 stating that a year's time will be given to jewellers and retailers to register

themselves before January 15, 2021 with the Bureau of Indian Standards (“BIS”) and clear their old

stock but due to disruptions in the wake of COVID, the deadline was later extended to June 1, 2021. It

will catalyze penetration of organized retail as unorganized players will lose their advantage of

adulteration propelled profits. However, type of gold jewellery demand in India depends on the region

and occasion of purchase. The regulatory framework is evolving to ensure customers get fair value for

their money.

Foreign direct investment norms

The Government of India allows 100% foreign direct investment in the jewellery sector under the

automatic route.

Challenges for the Jewellery market in India

 Gold imports in India attract a custom duty of 12.5%. This increases the cost of gold jewellery in India.

Jewellery demand by frequent travellers has also shifted to other countries due to significant price

advantage.

 The growth of small/family jewellers is limited due to paucity of funds from formal lending sector.

Historically, they have been running their business in cash, which makes credit evaluation difficult for

formal lending institutions.

 Gold jewellery manufacturing suffers from poor infrastructure and informality. It is currently

dominated by small manufacturers that do not have access to transport, vaulting and credit facilities.

This makes the sector prone to a higher cost of business.

 Jewellery industry depends on import for key raw materials. A majority of diamond and gold is

imported from few foreign suppliers that have control over the raw material supply and can dictate the

terms. Also, demand of gold and diamond jewellery is subjected to uncertainty with their prices

governed by national and international events such as rate hike by United States Federal Reserve and

demand from key markets, among others.

 Formal lending by banks to the Indian gems and jewellery segment has reduced after 2017. Increasing

non-performing assets across the sector coinciding with certain cases of fraud have led the bank to

increase collateral and disclosure requirements

Overview of the Middle East Market

The expansion by Indian jewellery retailers outside of India is primarily to meet the demands of Indian diaspora

abroad who have similar product preferences as Indian customers. Therefore, the sale by Indian jewellers of

their jewellery in the international market is largely viewed as an extension of their domestic businesses. Kalyan

Jewellers was the third largest Indian jeweller with an international presence in Fiscal 2019.

The gulf cooperation council (“GCC”) region comprising Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates,

Qatar, Bahrain and Oman host approximately 8.5 million non-residential Indians (approximately 15% of the

total population in this region). For the size of the Indian diaspora, over 90% of global stores of key Indian

jewellery retailers (organized) are in the GCC region to cater to the jewellery needs of Indian diaspora in the

region. Indian jewellers have established themselves quickly in the GCC region which has resulted in increase in

market share of Indian jewellers in the GCC region.

Information included in this Prospectus on page 213.

Overview

We are one of the largest jewellery companies in India based on revenue as of March 31, 2020, according to the

Technopak Report. We were established by our founder and one of our Promoters, Mr. T.S. Kalyanaraman, who

has over 45 years of retail experience, of which over 25 years is in the jewellery industry. We started our

jewellery business in 1993 with a single showroom in Thrissur, Kerala.

We have since expanded to become a pan-India jewellery company, with 107 showrooms located across 21

states and union territories in India, and also have an international presence with 30 showrooms located in the

Middle East as of December 31, 2020. All of our showrooms are operated and managed by us. In Fiscal 2020

and in the nine months ended December 31, 2020, our revenue from operations was ₹101,009.18 million and

₹55,167.04 million, of which 78.19% and 86.21% was from India and 21.81% and 13.79% was from the Middle

East. Our total showrooms have increased from 77 as of March 31, 2015 to 137 showrooms as of December 31,

2020, and we intend to continue to open additional showrooms as we expect significant opportunity for further

penetration in our existing markets as well as in new markets, primarily in India. We also sell jewellery through

our online platform at www.candere.com.

We design, manufacture and sell a wide range of gold, studded and other jewellery products across various price

points ranging from jewellery for special occasions, such as weddings, which is our highest-selling product

category, to daily-wear jewellery. In Fiscal 2020 and in the nine months ended December 31, 2020, 74.77% and

75.88%, respectively, of our revenue from operations was from the sale of gold jewellery, 23.36% and 21.72%,

respectively, was from the sale of studded jewellery (which includes diamonds and precious stones), and 1.87%

and 2.40%, respectively, was from the sale of other jewellery.

Hyperlocal Jeweller: One of our key competitive strengths is our ability to operate as a hyperlocal jewellery

company. We endeavour to cater to our customers’ unique preferences, which often vary significantly by

geography and micro market, through our local market expertise and region-specific marketing strategy and

advertising campaigns. We engage local artisans to manufacture jewellery (based on our specifications) that is

suited to local tastes in the markets in which we operate and hence endeavour to curate a localised product mix

and store experience within each of our showrooms to suit our customers’ preferences in the immediate micro

market. We believe that it is in large part due to some of these strategies, as well as our ability to operate as a

hyperlocal jewellery company, that has enabled us to become one of only the few pan-India jewellery

companies, according to the Technopak Report.

Trusted Jewellery Brand: We pride ourselves on being a trusted jeweller and have endeavoured to establish a

strong brand that our customers associate with trust and transparency. According to the Technopak Report, we

were one of the first jewellery companies in India to voluntarily have all of our jewellery BIS hallmarked as

well as accompanied by a detailed pricing tag disaggregating the various components of price to aid

transparency to consumers. These initiatives, along with our carefully crafted customer education and awareness

campaigns around the lack of transparency historically prevalent in the Indian jewellery industry, have helped

build the strength of our brand and enabled us to a develop a loyal customer base. We were awarded the

Superbrands title of being ‘India’s most preferred jewellery brand in Fiscal 2020.

“My Kalyan” Neighbourhood Centres: Our grassroots “My Kalyan” customer outreach and service centre

network is another key element of our hyperlocal strategy which enables us to be a neighbourhood jeweller and

is focused on marketing and customer engagement across urban, semi-urban and rural areas in India. Our “My

Kalyan” network consists of multiple service centres that are located in a wide radius around most of our

showrooms. We employ dedicated “My Kalyan” personnel at these service centres who engage in door-to-door

and other direct marketing efforts within their local communities to promote our brand, showcase our product

catalogue, enroll customers in our purchase advance schemes, enrich our customer database and help drive

136

traffic to our showrooms nearest to that area. As of December 31, 2020, we had 766 “My Kalyan” locations and

2,699 dedicated “My Kalyan” employees. Since wedding-related jewellery is our highest-selling product

category, “My Kalyan” employees build relationships with various players in the wedding ecosystem such as

local marriage halls, astrologers, caterers, event managers, make-up artists and other wedding vendors to

identify potential jewellery customers as leads who are likely to purchase our products given the imminence of

special occasions within their extended families, in order to target them with tailored offerings and promotions.

Through strategies such as these, we endeavour to connect and engage with over 10 million potential customers

each year through our “My Kalyan” network. Our “My Kalyan” network contributed 17.02% and 20.82% of our

revenue from operations in India and 30.88% and 36.02% of the enrolment to our purchase advance schemes in

India in Fiscal 2020 and in the nine months ended December 31, 2020. We believe our “My Kalyan” network

and strategy is a unique pillar of our business which significantly enhances our distribution footprint in a manner

which is difficult for our peers to easily replicate and enables us to access India’s large pool of jewellery

customers across urban, semi-urban and rural markets.

Information Technology: We have built robust information technology and operational management systems for

our operations. These systems are specific to our business needs to ensure best-in-class standards of controls and

operational efficiency. We particularly regard the implementation of our policies concerning inventory

management and the mitigation of gold price fluctuations as critical to the success of our business. Additionally,

we consider investments in technology to be a key enabler of our growth and have invested in building various

technology platforms, particularly in our “My Kalyan” operations, to support our customer acquisition activities.

We also plan to leverage the “near me searches” technology through which we are able to make our “My

Kalyan” centres and showrooms discoverable across internet searches and allow our customers to contact a

showroom or “My Kalyan” centre closest to them seamlessly.

Promoters and Management: We are led by a management team with extensive experience in the jewellery and

retail industries and with a proven track record of performance. Our Company was founded by our Chairman,

Managing Director and Promoter, Mr. T.S. Kalyanaraman, who has over 45 years of retail experience, of which

over 25 years is in the jewellery industry. We are led by our whole-time Directors and Promoters, Mr. T.K.

Seetharam and Mr. T.K. Ramesh, who have been involved in our business since our Company’s inception and

oversee the development of our business strategy. We have built an experienced team of senior management

professionals, led by our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Sanjay Raghuraman who joined our Company in 2012

when we were only present in South India and has been a key figure in our geographical expansion and

evolution into a pan-India business. Mr. Raghuraman is supported by a strong and experienced team of cross-

functional professionals across senior and middle level management.

Board of Directors and Shareholders: We are supported by an experienced board of directors with diversified

expertise which actively contributes to and participates in our strategy. Our Board consists of eminent

personalities from varied fields such as banking and finance, retail, marketing and regulatory bodies and

includes the former CEO of Shoppers Stop, former CEO of L&K Saatchi & Saatchi, the former Deputy

Governor of the RBI, as well as former leaders of well-reputed banking institutions such as Catholic Syrian

Bank, Indian Overseas Bank and State Bank of Travancore. Furthermore, our shareholders include Highdell,

belonging to the Warburg Pincus group.

Impact of COVID-19

March 2020 to May 2020

An outbreak of COVID-19 was recognised as a pandemic by the WHO on March 11, 2020. In response to the

COVID-19 outbreak, the governments of many countries, including India and in the Middle East, have taken

preventive or protective actions such as imposing country-wide lockdowns, as well as restrictions on travel and

business operations. Since May 2020 many of these measures have been lifted. Due to a government mandated

lockdown in India, we had to temporarily close all of our showrooms, “My Kalyan” centres, manufacturing

facilities, procurement centres and offices from mid-March to May 2020. Our operations in the Middle East

were similarly impacted during this period, and given the slowdown in the general economy of the Middle East

countries in which we have operations, we chose to permanently close seven of our showrooms. As of

December 31, 2020 we operated 30 showrooms in the Middle East.

May 2020 onwards

In May 2020, we resumed operations and in June 2020 we opened most of our showrooms. Our pan-India

presence, strong supply chain network and the capabilities and depth of our management team enabled us to

137

restart our operations quickly after the lockdowns eased. We were able to leverage our 13 procurement centres

across India to direct supplies from centres that were relatively unaffected by COVID-19. We also proactively

engaged with our customers to reassure them about the strength of our brand and business, to demonstrate our

commitment to restart our operations and to build confidence in the safety protocols deployed at our

showrooms. As a result, we have since experienced a return of customer traffic to our showrooms and by July

2020 revenues generated from our showrooms in India that were open were broadly in line with pre-COVID-19

levels. Furthermore, in the three months ending December 31, 2020, we generated revenues in our showrooms

in India that were higher than pre-COVID-19 levels and the corresponding period in Fiscal 2019. We believe the

rapid recovery and subsequent growth in our business is being driven by the following key factors:

 Resilience of wedding-related jewellery, our highest-selling product category: According to the Technopak

Report, despite the lockdown, wedding-related jewellery demand has remained robust as weddings have

largely continued to occur, either within homes or on a smaller scale. As jewellery remains an integral part

of Indian weddings, this area of spending has remained resilient and has been further buffered by the other

wedding-related cost-savings that have accrued from holding smaller scale celebrations due to the COVID-

19 pandemic. Wedding-related jewelry is our highest selling product category.

 Jewellery seen as a store of value and as an investment: According to the Technopak Report, jewellery has

a dual purpose of both consumption and investment, is seen as a store of value and a safe haven asset class,

and is less likely to be impacted due to COVID-19 as compared with other product categories.

 Preference for safety of organised retail shopping experience: According to the Technopak Report, since

the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, for safety reasons consumers have been preferring

organised/standalone showrooms rather than crowded areas where unorganised players typically have their

outlets. Consumers have greater confidence in the safety protocols deployed at showrooms such as ours.

Furthermore, in the long-term, we expect the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic to further accelerate the shift

of the jewellery market from unorganised players to organised chains such as us, given the conviction

consumers are likely to have in the store experience and safety protocols businesses like ours can offer. We also

expect the negative impact of the pandemic to be disproportionately higher for some of our competitors,

particularly the smaller jewellers and those operating in the unorganised market. We expect this will provide us

with a competitive advantage in the long-term and hence we intend to leverage the strength of our brand, our

pan-India presence and our “My Kalyan” network to increase our sales and expand our presence in several

markets.

Cost control

In order to reduce the impact of COVID-19 on our operations, we have proactively taken various steps to

manage our expenses and liquidity, including reducing our marketing costs; seeking partial rent waivers and

discounts under most of our lease agreements for our showrooms, “My Kalyan” centres and offices; temporarily

reducing the cash compensation of senior executives; and reducing our administrative overhead expenses. As a

result of prompt action by our management team, we did not layoff any of our employees or terminate our

contractual arrangements with our suppliers and contract manufacturers during the lockdown period.

Human resource, health and safety

Throughout the COVID-19 lockdown, we prioritised and continue to prioritise the health and safety of our

customers and employees. We proactively engaged with our customers to enquire about their well-being.

Further, we ensured necessary safety measures were put in place at the accommodation facilities that we provide

to our showroom staff and also kept them engaged, well-informed and motivated via online training sessions.

We have further implemented strict procedures at all our showrooms and facilities, including staggered work

shifts, safe distancing protocols, daily temperature screening and regular health checks. We have also taken

steps and implemented policies to safeguard our communities from the threats posed by the COVID-19

pandemic. For more details, see “ – Corporate Social Responsibility”.

See “Risk Factor - The recent outbreak of the novel coronavirus disease could have a significant effect on our

results of operations and could negatively impact our business, revenues, financial condition and results of

operations” for potential risks of the COVID-19 outbreak on our operations and financial condition.

Our Strengths

138

Established brand built on the core values of trust and transparency

The Indian jewellery industry has largely been unorganised and fragmented, comprising more than 500,000

local goldsmiths and jewellers, as per the Technopak Report. Indian jewellery customers have historically

struggled with a lack of transparency embedded in the purchase process for jewellery, finding it difficult to

verify gold purity and weight and to deconstruct the various components of jewellery prices, including

differentiating between raw material costs and jeweller mark-ups or making charges.

We have endeavoured to establish a strong brand in the Indian jewellery market that our customers associate

with trust and transparency. According to the Technopak Report, we were among the pioneers in the Indian

jewellery market in (a) educating consumers about the aforementioned industry issues; (b) instituting the highest

quality standards for our jewellery, and (c) introducing complete price transparency with our products. Through

the following initiatives, coupled with concurrent customer education and awareness campaigns, particularly

through our “My Kalyan” network, we have helped strengthen our brand by building customer trust and

promoting transparency.

 BIS hallmarked jewellery: While selling Bureau of Indian Standards, or BIS, hallmarked jewellery is

expected to become mandatory in India in 2021, we have been selling only BIS hallmarked jewellery,

which is independently verified for purity by government-approved agencies in accordance with BIS norms.

 Detailed price tags disaggregating various components: All of our jewellery items are accompanied by a

detailed pricing tag disaggregating the various components such as metal weight, stone weight, stone price

and making charges to aid transparency to consumers.

 Karatmeters to verify purity: Our showrooms offer karatmeters to allow customers to verify the purity of

our gold jewellery as well as the jewellery they have previously purchased from other sources.

 Transparency in gold exchange: In Fiscal 2020 and nine months ended December 31, 2020, 27.13% and

31.50% of our revenue from operations involved customers exchanging or selling their previously

purchased jewellery to us as payment for newly purchased jewellery. We have deployed a transparent

process for valuing such exchange of customer gold, including verifying the exchanged gold purity in front

of the customer to determine its fair value.

 Product certification: With each purchase of jewellery we provide our customers with a “four level product

certification” which assures purity, offers lifetime product maintenance, identifies exchange and buy-back

terms and provides a detailed product description.

 Relevant Staff Training: Our sales staff is trained to be forthright with customers and to develop trust with

the aim of providing long-term customer satisfaction and winning repeat business rather than focusing on a

one-time sale.

Our marketing strategy focuses on maintaining consistency in our brand messaging across all of our

communication channels and markets in which we operate. Our training program for all of our showroom staff

and “My Kalyan” personnel is designed to ensure customers receive a uniform experience of our brand that

demonstrates a strong commitment to trust and transparency. Our reputation and brand image built on trust and

transparency are critical to the success of our business and we continue to focus on operational and marketing

efforts based on these principles.

One of India’s largest jewellery companies with a pan-India presence

We are one of the largest jewellery companies in India based on revenue as of March 31, 2020, according to the

Technopak Report. We have a pan-India presence with 107 showrooms located across 21 states and union

territories in India and also have 30 showrooms located in the Middle East, as of December 31, 2020. In Fiscal

2020 and in the nine months ended December 31, 2020, 78.19% and 86.21% of our revenue from operations

was from India and 21.81% and 13.79% was from the Middle East.

While we started our operations in Kerala, over time we have been able to successfully expand to become a pan-

India jewellery company. As of December 31, 2020, 72 of our 137 showrooms were located outside of South

India (South India includes Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Pondicherry and Karnataka). Our

operations outside of South India contributed 57.69% and 49.92% of our gross profit and 47.81% and 40.40% of

our revenue in Fiscal 2020 and in the nine months ended December 31, 2020. In addition, we have a relatively

139

diversified presence across larger and smaller cities, semi-urban and rural regions. For Fiscal 2020 and in the

nine months ended December 31, 2020, approximately 51.29% and 53.08% of our revenue in India was

generated from sales outside of tier-I cities. Our total showrooms have increased from 77 as of March 31, 2015

to 137 as of December 31, 2020.

Hyperlocal strategy enabling us to cater to a wide range of geographies and customer segments

Jewellery consumption patterns in India are highly localised with customer preferences varying significantly by

region, according to the Technopak Report. According to the same report, this industry characteristic has acted

as a significant barrier for jewellery brands to scale up in India as it demands (a) a nuanced understanding of

local customer needs, (b) region-specific procurement and inventory models, which require operating at

sufficient scale to attract the best artisans, and (c) significant investments in localised and region-specific

marketing campaigns to build awareness and trust with consumers. We strive to appeal to a broad base of

customers via a multi-faceted hyperlocal strategy by deploying the following initiatives in our operations:

 Localisation of our product portfolio: We appeal to a wide audience by endeavouring to understand the

local market preferences and trends in the geographies in which we operate and offering a range of

jewellery products in our showrooms that are tailored to such tastes. Prior to entering a market, we conduct

extensive research to understand local preferences as well as study the jewellery offerings of incumbent

jewellers in the relevant market. We then engage third-party local artisans as contract manufacturers across

the markets in which we operate to manufacture jewellery with localised designs in line with the

preferences we identify based on our research. Within India, our 13 procurement centres across key

jewellery manufacturing regions of the country enable us to access local artisans at competitive rates. We

believe our local procurement expertise coupled with our ability to simultaneously showcase a wider variety

of pan-India jewellery designs in comparison to our competitors in local markets provides us with a

significant competitive advantage in the markets in which we operate.

 Localisation in brand communication and marketing: Our region-specific marketing efforts, including state

and city-specific brand campaigns with differential, localised creative content and the use of various

relevant brand ambassadors with national, regional and local appeal, is a core element of our brand

positioning. We select regional and local creative agencies in the markets in which we operate to tailor the

marketing and the medium of communication to suit local preferences.

 Localisation of our showroom experience for customers: Our localisation strategy is further supported by

our policy of hiring personnel for each of our showrooms with local language and cultural knowledge, as

well as our practice of designing our showrooms to reflect local tastes and sensibilities.

 Localisation through our “My Kalyan” network: We generally hire “My Kalyan” employees from the

communities in which they serve, and with relevant language skills and local relationships. Through our

strategy of catering to local preferences, we endeavour to compete with both unorganised and organised

jewellers in markets in which we operate by establishing customer rapport on a local level.

Our localisation strategy, combined with our large scale of operations, allows us to cater to a wide range of

customers across geographies, age groups, socio-economic status levels and genders as well as across urban,

rural and semi-urban markets, all of which greatly widens our appeal and addressability to broad segments of

jewellery consumers across India. We have used this strategy successfully to expand our operations across India

in an industry with substantially differing customer preferences for jewellery across regions.

Extensive grassroots “My Kalyan” network with strong distribution capabilities enabling deep customer

outreach

Our grassroots “My Kalyan” customer outreach network is a key element of our hyperlocal strategy enabling us

to be a neighbourhood jeweller and is focused on marketing and customer engagement across urban, semi-urban

and rural areas in India. According to the Technopak Report, a significant proportion of India’s gold jewellery

demand originates from rural and semi-urban markets where the penetration of organised jewellery companies

has historically been even lower than that of the overall Indian market. We believe that our network of “My

Kalyan” centres provides us with a marketing tool to help address the latent demand that exists in some of these

markets.

 What is it: Our “My Kalyan” customer outreach network consists of multiple smaller centres that serve as

satellite locations situated in a wide radius around most of our showrooms. On average, we have

140

approximately seven “My Kalyan” locations per showroom. As of December 31, 2020, we had 766 “My

Kalyan” locations and 2,699 dedicated “My Kalyan” employees located across 21 states and union

territories in India. We generally hire “My Kalyan” employees from the communities in which they serve,

and with local language skills and relationships. For further details, see “ – Our Operations – Marketing

and Promotion” on page 150.

 Objective: Our “My Kalyan” locations employ dedicated “My Kalyan” personnel with local language and

cultural knowledge who engage in door-to-door and other direct marketing efforts within their local

communities to promote our brand, showcase our product catalogue, enroll customers in our purchase

advance schemes, enrich our customer database and help drive traffic to our showrooms.

 Strategies employed: Since wedding-related jewellery is our highest selling product category, “My Kalyan”

employees build relationships with various players in the wedding ecosystem such as marriage halls,

astrologers, caterers, event managers, make-up artists and other wedding vendors to identify potential

jewellery customers, who are likely to purchase our products given the imminence of special occasions

within their extended families, in order to target them with tailored offerings and promotions.

 Relevance to our business: Through the aforementioned strategies, we endeavour to connect and engage

with over 10 million potential customers each year. Our “My Kalyan” network has been a critical tool in

boosting the sales productivity of our showrooms and increasing enrolment of our purchase advance

schemes. Our “My Kalyan” network contributed 17.02% and 20.82% of our revenue from operations in

India and 30.88% and 36.02% of the enrolment to our purchase advance schemes in India in Fiscal 2020

and in the nine months ended December 31, 2020. Through our “My Kalyan” network, we have been able

to enter rural and semi-urban markets in India that often have limited exposure to organised jewellery

companies, and hence are typically served by long-established local and unorganised jewellers. It is through

unique marketing outreach efforts such as these that we have been able to gain customer trust with face-to-

face interaction and hence significantly widen our customer base.

Visionary Promoters with strong leadership and a demonstrated track record supported by a highly

experienced and accomplished senior management team and board of directors

We are led by a management team with extensive experience in the jewellery and retail industries with a proven

track record of performance.

 Strong promoter background with extensive experience in retail and jewellery: Our Company was founded

by our Chairman, Managing Director and Promoter, Mr. T.S. Kalyanaraman, who has over 45 years of

retail experience, of which over 25 years is in the jewellery industry. We are led by our whole-time

Directors and Promoters, Mr. T.K. Seetharam and Mr. T.K. Ramesh, who have been involved in our

business since our Company’s inception and oversee the development of our business strategy.

 Professionally managed: We have built an experienced team of senior management professionals, led by

our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Sanjay Raghuraman who joined our Company in 2012 when we were only

present in South India. He has been a key figure in our geographical expansion and evolution into a pan-

India business. Mr. Raghuraman is supported by a strong and experienced team of cross-functional

professionals across senior and mid-level management.

We are further supported by an experienced board of directors with diversified expertise which actively

contributes to and participates in our strategy. Our Board consists of eminent personalities from varied fields

such as banking and finance, retail, marketing and regulatory bodies and includes the former CEO of Shoppers

Stop, former CEO of L&K Saatchi & Saatchi, the former Deputy Governor of the RBI, as well as former leaders

of well-reputed banking institutions such as Catholic Syrian Bank, Indian Overseas Bank and State Bank of

Travancore. Furthermore, our shareholders include Highdell, belonging to the Warburg Pincus group.

Wide range of product offerings targeted at a diverse set of customers

Our products span jewellery for special occasions, such as weddings, to daily-wear jewellery, and our product

portfolio also caters to a wide range of price points. We have launched numerous sub-brands that address

specific customer niches such as:

 Ornate wedding jewellery, which we sell through our “Muhurat” brand to our wedding customers;

141

 High-volume, mass market jewellery, which we sell through our “Aishwaryam” brand to our value

conscious customers;

 Antique and heritage gold jewellery, studded with precious stones jewellery, polki and uncut diamond

jewellery that we sell through our “Mudhra”, “Sankalp”, “Nimah” and “Anokhi” brands to our mid-to-high

end customers; and

 Technology savvy customers, to whom we cater through our online platform. Recognizing early the

powerful potential of engaging customers online in an increasingly digitally connected world, we invested

and acquired a majority stake in Enovate Lifestyles Private Limited and its online platform,

www.candere.com. Through this platform, our customers can purchase a wide variety of jewellery under

the Candere and Kalyan brands, as well as enroll in our purchase advance schemes.

A description of some of our jewellery sub-brands and their target geographies and themes is set forth below:

Robust and effective internal control processes to support a growing organisation and showroom network

with a pan-India presence

We have established a robust set of operational and control processes to manage our business operations and to

support our future growth at both the showroom and corporate level. Given the high value nature of our

jewellery, our inventory management and internal audit procedures are critical to the success of our business.

We closely track our inventory starting from the initial procurement of raw materials to its ultimate sale in our

showrooms, including by barcoding each piece of finished goods inventory and conducting daily counts at our

showrooms. These measures are coupled with an integrated enterprise resource planning, or ERP, system. Our

ERP system is designed to permit our management to manage all aspects of our operations, including

procurement of raw materials and semi-finished products, inventory management, sales and finance from a

centralised platform. Our systems allow our local and regional management to analyse inventory status and

product sales across all our showrooms and report performance in real time, which can then be reviewed by our

senior management team, allowing them to provide necessary course corrections and strategic guidance. Our

inventory management system facilitates efficient operations, for example, by identifying slower-moving

jewellery items, which can then be reallocated to showrooms with greater sales potential for those particular

products. Further, these tools are especially useful during peak seasons, such as Diwali or Akshay Tritiya. These

systems enable management to respond more effectively to changing seasonal consumption patterns to replenish

or reallocate inventory based on customer demand, which is particularly relevant for us given the pan-India

nature of our operations. For further details, see “ – Our Operations – Inventory Management and Security” on

page 152.

Further, it is our belief that the profits generated by the company should be primarily derived from the value-

addition the company creates, which reflects the strength of the Kalyan brand, and not from changes in the price

of gold. Consequently, we generally employ various techniques to hedge our gold inventory to protect us from

price fluctuations, including the use of gold metal loans, forward contracts and options. For further details, see “

– Our Operations – Products – Product Design and Development” on page 145.

Our Strategies

Leverage our scalable business model to expand our showroom network and diversify our channels of

distribution

According to the Technopak Report, the Indian jewellery industry is expected to continue to witness a shift in

demand in favour of organised jewellery companies, which are likely to continue to gain market share from the

unorganised market. We believe that our strong brand, scalable business model, effective operational processes

and proven track record of profitable expansion, all positions us well to capitalise on this market opportunity,

and accordingly we intend to further expand our network of showrooms.

Between April 1, 2015 and December 31, 2020, we opened 60 net new showrooms at an average rate of

approximately 11 showroom openings per year across multiple regions, which has provided us with significant

experience in expanding our showroom network, including in new markets. We evaluate all of our new

showroom locations by conducting extensive market research designed to understand a market’s demographics,

spending capacity and economic conditions. Further, we also study the incumbent jewellers in a given region to

understand their product offerings as well as local jewellery preferences, enabling us to curate a merchandise

offering at our showrooms that is both tailored to local preferences as well as to offer a wider range of jewellery

products to which we have access given our pan-India network, which our competitors typically are not able to

showcase. In the past, while expanding into certain new markets such as Mumbai, Delhi, and Kolkata, as part of

a carefully designed marketing strategy, we had opened multiple showrooms on the same day in order to

maximise local brand awareness as well as optimise our showroom opening costs.

We intend to leverage our substantial past efforts and experience, to expand our presence across several markets

in India which we have identified as having potential for opening further showrooms. We believe the significant

investments we have already made in (a) brand building across a large number of local markets, (b)

understanding the varying nuances of customer behavior across geographies, and (c) building an artisan network

across various parts of India, will enable us to effectively utilise our previously proven playbook in successfully

expanding our showroom network.

In addition, we plan to continue to diversify our channels of distribution. For example, recognizing early the

powerful potential of engaging customers online we invested in and acquired a majority stake in Enovate

Lifestyles Private Limited and its online platform, www.candere.com. Our online platform offers us another

distribution channel to reach customers and potentially drive further traffic to our showrooms. We intend to set

up Candere kiosks in shopping malls, as well as at some of our showrooms in order to offer our customers the

option to purchase products offline and also offer them the opportunity to tangibly experience our products

offered online. We also intend to leverage our increasing engagement with a digitally savvy consumer base to

increase revenues for jewellery sold online through www.candere.com.

Widen our product offerings to further increase our consumer reach

We intend to continue to increase our focus on studded jewellery going forward as these products have widened

the consumer base to which we cater and also typically have a higher gross margin profile than our gold

jewellery. We tailor our showrooms to offer prominent displays of diamond and other studded jewellery and, in

many cases, have entire floors dedicated to such jewellery. Furthermore, we have launched a number of sub-

brands around our studded jewellery range. Our revenue from sales of studded jewellery increased from 20.65%

of our revenue from operations in Fiscal 2018 to 23.36% of revenue from operations in Fiscal 2020.

Indian jewellery consumers are also becoming increasingly brand conscious and developing greater

sophistication in their jewellery preferences, according to the Technopak Report. Given this trend, we are

continuing to explore opportunities to expand our range of sub-brands and to introduce new branded jewellery

lines that are targeted at both specific customer niches as well as the luxury market focused on high-end gold

and studded jewellery. For further details, see “ – Our Operations – Products” on page 144.

In the last few years, we have introduced a range of jewellery collections under distinct sub-brands, such as

“Muhurat”, “Mudhra”, “Rang”, “Nimah” and “Anokhi”, which are designed to cater to specific customer niches

such as antique jewellery, temple jewellery and polki diamonds and precious stones jewellery. These brands are

marketed through distinct promotional campaigns and have separate shelf-space in our showrooms. We intend

to build further on this portfolio of branded jewellery, which allows us to engage in distinct marketing efforts

targeted at certain customer niches, and to couple this with our strategy to increase our range of jewellery

143

offerings, in order to widen our appeal across larger cross sections of the Indian jewellery consuming

population.

Leverage our “My Kalyan” network to deepen customer outreach and strengthen the distribution network in

our core markets

We intend to continue leveraging our extensive “My Kalyan” network of 766 centres across India to deepen

customer engagement and actively bolster our efforts to acquire a larger customer base in the markets in which

we operate. In many of these markets, particularly in semi-urban and rural areas, the penetration of organised

jewellery companies has historically been low. Furthermore, we believe the local and unorganised jewellery

players who dominate some of these markets have been and may continue to be adversely impacted by the

COVID-19 pandemic. Given this opportunity to access latent demand, we plan to build the employee strength

across our “My Kalyan” centres to increase customer engagement and drive traffic to our showrooms.

Additionally, we intend to expand our “My Kalyan” network in areas where we believe our network is currently

underpenetrated relative to the scale of the latent demand opportunity in those particular markets. For example,

in certain regions in south India, particularly Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Karnataka, we intend to increase

the footprint of our “My Kalyan” network. Similarly, across the rest of the country, there are several regions we

have already identified where we plan to set up My Kalyan centres which we believe will be able to

significantly drive incremental customer traffic to our showrooms and increase enrolments in our purchase

advance schemes, given the underlying dynamics of those particular markets.

Based on our past experience, we believe our “My Kalyan” network and strategy significantly enhances our

distribution footprint in a manner which would be difficult for our peers to easily replicate and enables us to

access India’s large pool of jewellery customers across urban, semi-urban and rural markets. As we continue to

embark upon our showroom expansion, we also plan to expand our “My Kalyan” network in tandem with our

showroom footprint in order to promote our brand, showcase our product catalogue, enrich our customer

database and help drive traffic to our showrooms.

Invest in CRM, marketing and analytics to more effectively target consumers and drive sales

We intend to continue to invest in customer relationship management, or CRM, strategies, campaigns and

technologies to analyse and manage customer interactions and related data throughout the customer lifecycle,

with the goal of creating a long-term relationship with customers, building customer retention and driving sales.

Developing a deep and nuanced understanding of our customers and their purchasing patterns is crucial to our

business. We acquire data to identify and understand our customers from numerous sources, including our

showroom sales, in-person customer visits, our mobile app, our online platform candere.com, our Kalyan

Matrimony site and our “My Kalyan” network. We have micro websites for each of our showrooms as well as

for various jewellery designs and products that enable search, lead generation and tracking in a hyperlocal

manner. Our access to data allows us to understand customer consumption patterns and preferences, enabling

targeted advertising campaigns and hence influencing our merchandising strategy. We are able to target

customers through SMS messages, WhatsApp, e-mails and phone calls in order to inform customers of

promotions and sales that are of particular interest and relevance to them, as well as to build our brand image.

We plan to leverage the “near me searches” technology through which we are able to make our “My Kalyan”

centres and showrooms discoverable across internet searches and allow our customers to contact a showroom or

“My Kalyan” centre closest to them seamlessly. We believe this technology along with our large presence

across India gives us a clear competitive advantage within our industry. We also intend to further build our

relationships with external agencies that assist us with analytics in order to use data more effectively and to

target new uses and methods of analyzing customer data.

Our key milestones

Our historical growth trajectory can be summarised in the following three phases:

 Establishment phase (1993 – 2003): We focused on building our brand and business on the core principles

of trust and transparency, as well as on attracting a loyal base of customers.

 Growth phase within South India (2004 – 2011): Having established our brand, we expanded our showroom

network across various southern states of India. We were largely focused on selling plain gold jewellery to

our customers.

144

 Pan-India growth, professionalisation and investment phase (2012 – Present): During this phase, we

invested significantly in marketing and brand building across various geographies, building robust systems

and processes, and instituting a strong professionalised management team and board of directors. We also

expanded our showroom network to become a pan-India, hyperlocal jeweller and concurrently expanded

our product mix and diversified our channels of distribution.

incorporation.

Our Operations

Products

Product Offerings

We design, manufacture and sell a wide range of jewellery products at varying price points for uses ranging

from jewellery for special occasions such as weddings, which is our highest sold product category, to daily-wear

jewellery. We offer gold jewellery, studded jewellery (including diamond) and other jewellery (including

platinum jewellery and silver jewellery). In Fiscal 2020 and in the nine months ended December 31, 2020, our

revenue from operations was ₹101,009.18 million and ₹55,167.04 million, of which 74.77% and 75.88% was

from the sale of gold jewellery, 23.36% and 21.72% was from the sale of studded jewellery and 1.87% and

2.40% was from the sale of other jewellery. In Fiscal 2020 and in the nine months ended December 31, 2020,

our average invoice value was ₹43,609.40 and ₹54,360.

The following table provides a breakdown of our revenue from operations in Fiscal 2020 and in the nine months

Within these product categories, we offer jewellery for personal milestones and occasions, festival jewellery,

wedding jewellery, daily-wear jewellery and men’s jewellery, with many different jewellery options, including

rings, earrings, pendants, bracelets, necklaces, chains, waist bands and bangles. While we produce popular

jewellery at scale, we also produce niche jewellery for specific target markets and consumer groups. Our broad

145

product range enables us to cater to customers across age groups, socio-economic status levels and genders, and

also allows us to cater to the needs of our customers at all stages of their lives, where we attempt to target

customers at earlier stages of their life cycles and hence meet their jewellery needs over time. Furthermore, our

jewellery is aimed at catering to local preferences in the geographies in which we operate, and we use local

artisans as contract manufacturers to produce jewellery that aligns with local tastes.

We have launched a number of sub-brands around our studded jewellery, such as “Nimah”, “Muhurat”,

“Tejasvi”, “Rang”, “Anokhi”, “Glo”, “Ziah”, “Hera”, “Laya” and “Apoorva”, targeting different customer

segments and occasions. We also tailor our showrooms to showcase prominent displays of our studded

jewellery, and in many cases, entire floors dedicated to diamond jewellery. As a result, our revenue from sales

of studded jewellery increased from 20.65% of our revenue from operations in Fiscal 2018 to 23.36% of our

revenue from operations in Fiscal 2020.

Product Design and Development

Jewellery Design

The designs for our jewellery are developed by us in-house based on our market insights from the regions in

which we operate. Our marketing team uses insights relating to customer preferences and trends that they gain

through extensive market research, data analytics and customer feedback to develop a strategy and vision for

new jewellery designs in line with these market trends and regional variations. We subsequently liaise with our

network of contract manufacturers to provide us with customised samples. We review and consider such

samples and select physical pieces to be created for a subset of the samples provided to us. Based on further

review of the quality of the final samples submitted, we enter into agreements and/or production orders with

these contract manufacturers to manufacture our designs as our agents, while control of the entire manufacturing

process remains with us.

Procurement of Raw Materials

We procure gold used in our jewellery from various banks in India and the Middle East for our respective

operations in each region, as well as from customers directly. Gold sourced from banks is partially procured

through outright purchase and partially procured through gold metal loans from banks, whereby bullion is

loaned to us at a specified interest rate. We are required to post security for the gold metal loans equal to the

amount of gold loaned along with the applicable margin through cash collateral, bank guarantees, the

apportionment of loan facilities and other forms of collateral. The banks with whom we work adjust our loan

accounts on a daily basis through a mark-to-market valuation of our outstanding gold metal loans. To the extent

there are fluctuations in the price of gold, our posted cash collateral is required to be adjusted upward or

downward to reflect daily changes in gold prices. At the time we sell the gold that we had procured through this

gold metal loan model, we generally fix the rate of purchase to align the buying and selling rate of the

underlying gold.

Customers purchasing jewellery may exchange or sell their old jewellery to us based on the prevailing market

price, which we subsequently use as raw materials for new jewellery. In Fiscal 2020 and in the nine months

ended December 31, 2020, 27.13% and 31.50% of our revenue from operations included the customers’

exchange or sale of their old jewellery to us.

We purchase cut and polished diamonds used in our diamond-studded jewellery outright from a number of

diamond suppliers in India. A large number of our suppliers are registered with the Gem and Jewellery Export

Promotion Council, and all of our diamonds have Kimberly Certifications as conflict-free. We also purchase

semi-finished studded jewellery, which we process and convert to finished products.

Similarly, we purchase precious and semi-precious stones as well as semi-processed platinum and raw silver for

our jewellery from a number of suppliers.

Jewellery Manufacturing

We manufacture our products through a network of artisans throughout India, who work in the capacity of

contract manufacturers and as our independent contractors to manufacture our products. Most of the contract

manufacturers are long-term business partners of our Company and we continue to work closely with them. We

execute agreements with our contract manufacturers whereby we supply them with all raw materials and designs

for our jewellery. We procure and supply raw materials, including gold, diamonds, precious stones, platinum,

146

and silver, to our contract manufacturers and pay them a fee as a contractor. Under the contract manufacturing

agreements, we control the entire manufacturing process and the ultimate risk of the raw materials and products

lies with us. We inspect our contractors’ facilities and supervise the entire manufacturing process to ensure our

jewellery is being manufactured in line with our designs and with the desired levels of quality.

By utilising the expertise and experience of local artisans as contract manufacturers who are able to implement

our design specifications in line with regional preferences, we are able to cater to varying regional jewellery

tastes and to compete effectively with both city and state-specific regional organised jewellery chains and

unorganised local jewellers who have traditionally dominated local jewellery markets in India. Catering to local

design preferences is an essential component for us to be a pan-India hyperlocal jewellery company with

strength in a diverse set of regions across India. For example, temple jewellery is a category often preferred in

South India, and our local artisans in South India can craft jewellery for this style, whereas certain consumer

groups within western regions of India have preferences for antique collections and we work with artisans in

western India to cater to this demand.

Our jewellery in the Middle East consists of a mix of products manufactured by us as well as finished products

purchased from local manufacturers. We have four manufacturing facilities in Sharjah and Oman where we

produce jewellery. The following table provides the aggregate installed capacity and aggregate capacity

utilisation by product category at our manufacturing facilities as at March 31, 2018, 2019 and 2020.

Quality Control

Given that our inventory is produced by artisans who are engaged as contract manufacturers, we have

implemented stringent quality control procedures to ensure we only sell products in line with the quality and

purity metrics that we market to our customers. All jewellery that is produced is initially checked for physical

defects, such as structural issues and inconsistencies in polishing and finishing, and is checked for purity with a

karatmeter.

We also send all our jewellery to government-approved hallmarking centres who analyse and check our

jewellery in accordance with BIS norms, which are widely-accepted in the Indian jewellery industry. According

to the Technopak Report, we were one of the first jewellery companies in India to voluntarily have all of its

jewellery BIS hallmarked as well as accompanied by a detailed pricing tag to aid transparency to consumers.

In addition, we conduct sample tests on each new batch of products whereby samples are disassembled into their

raw materials to ensure they meet our purity and quality standards, including by melting metals to determine

their purity. Contract manufacturers who do not meet quality standards are penalised, for example with a return

of products and a requirement to correct any defects. To the extent there is any loss or damage of raw materials,

contract manufacturers are liable to compensate us accordingly. Our procurement teams also report instances of

loss or damage to products or raw materials directly to senior management to ensure we work only with the

most trusted and quality-focused contract manufacturers.

We believe our commitment to stringent quality control has been critical to our success in the Indian jewellery

industry and has contributed to customers associating our brand with trust and transparency.

147

Pricing and Transparency

Pricing and Promotion

The products in our showrooms generally have a predetermined making charge or value-added charge, although

sales staff have some limited discretion to offer customers discounts based on preapproved discounts

programmed in our inventory software. Our jewellery prices are programmed directly into our central ERP

system and are primarily based on our costs of production, including the costs of raw materials and production

costs. Our jewellery prices also reflect applicable taxes as well as general market demands and price trends. The

price of the underlying gold component of our jewellery is based on prevailing market rates, accounting for the

global market gold price (which is generally quoted in U.S. Dollars) and the relative value of the Indian Rupee

(or local currencies in our Middle East operations). Our production charges and margins are determined by our

senior management team in consultation with regional management.

We launch sales and promotions from time to time on certain of our products. These are set by our management

and communicated to all of our showrooms for implementation. Certain sales and promotions are also targeted

to individual customers based on their purchase history with us.

We offer various purchase advance schemes from time to time, such as the ‘Kalyan Akshaya’, ‘Kalyan

Sowbhagya’ and ‘Kalyan Dhanvarsha’ schemes. Through these schemes, customers can make monthly

instalments over a period of up to 11 months, to purchase jewellery within such period as specified in the

scheme (not exceeding 365 days from the commencement of the scheme for each customer). Instalment

payments made for our purchase advance schemes are not refundable in cash, but can be used as credits at our

stores and may be appropriated towards the purchase of our jewellery. We may also issue gold coins against the

consolidated value of the instalments depending on the term of the scheme. Sales through our purchase advance

schemes comprised 26.92% and 26.13% of our revenue from operations on a standalone basis in India in Fiscal

2020 and in the nine months ended December 31, 2020.

We also run a few priority programmes, under the name ‘Kalyan Priority Programme’, through which members/

subscribers of the programme on payment of non-refundable membership fee may avail certain benefits in the

form of discounts, when they purchase jewellery for a stipulated period of time.

Transparency in Quality and Pricing

Since our inception, we have emphasised the importance of fair trade practices by focusing on building

consumer trust through transparency in our jewellery quality and pricing. According to the Technopak Report,

we were pioneers in the Indian jewellery market in adhering to the highest quality standards for our jewellery

and introducing price transparency with our products. While selling BIS hallmarked jewellery will become

mandatory in India in 2021, we have been selling only BIS hallmarked jewellery, which is independently

verified for purity by government-approved agencies in accordance with BIS norms. All of our jewellery items

are accompanied by a detailed pricing tag disaggregating the various components, setting forth a break-up

including the weight of the relevant jewellery item (comprising both the weight of the metal and any stones,

given the large pricing differential between these components), the stone price, and the making charges being

levied on the jewellery. Moreover, our sales staff is trained to be forthright with customers and to develop

customer trust with the aim of winning repeat business rather than focusing on a one-time sale. With each

purchase, we also provide and explain to our customers our “four level product certification” which assures

purity, offers lifetime product maintenance, identifies exchange and buy-back terms and provides a detailed

product description.

Sales Locations

Showroom Network

As of December 31, 2020, we had 107 showrooms located across 21 states and union territories in India, which

covered a total aggregate area of 4,65,235 sq. ft. as well as 30 showrooms located in the Middle East, which

covered a total aggregate area of 38,056 sq. ft. All of our showrooms are operated and managed by us.

The following map sets forth our showroom centre presence across India as of December 31, 2020:

Showroom Expansion

We have undergone a significant expansion in recent years in an effort to capitalise on the attractive market

opportunity we believe exists in the Indian jewellery industry. Our retail footprint increased from 77 showrooms

as of March 31, 2015 to a total of 137 showrooms as of December 31, 2020. Prior to opening a new showroom,

we undertake extensive research to understand the local market and to select an optimal location for the

showroom to maximise foot traffic. Our efforts include analysing the jewellery selections of incumbent local

jewellers in order to understand our competition and the jewellery preferences of a given market. Our internal

teams also visit local jewellers to ascertain customer service levels, as well as footfalls and other consumer

behaviour. We evaluate potential showroom locations based on various site economics, including customer

demographics, spending capacity, economic conditions, cost-benefit analysis and proximity to our competitors.

In the past, while expanding into certain new markets such as Mumbai, Delhi, and Kolkata as part of a carefully

designed marketing strategy, we had opened multiple showrooms on the same day in order to maximise local

brand awareness as well as to optimise our showroom opening costs. We also engage in pre-launch publicity in

the form of print, television, digital and outdoor advertisements. In addition, we work with national and regional

celebrities and local influencers to serve as brand ambassadors to promote our brand and to partake in launch

and other related activities. For further details on our marketing and promotional efforts, see “ - Our Operations

– Marketing and Promotion” on page 150. These collective efforts enable us to gain trust in new markets, which

are often dominated by smaller-scale players who have been previously operating in those geographies.

We believe we have seen success in all the markets in which we have expanded. We consider our investments in

new showrooms to be relatively low risk for us since the primary investment associated with a new showroom

comprises of inventory, which generally does not suffer from obsolescence and can be easily transferred to other

showrooms or converted to alternative products, thus significantly reducing the capital risk associated with a

“failed” showroom. We have historically managed inventory in our showrooms successfully through effective

inventory management practices.

Showroom Design and Operations

Our showrooms are usually located in high-visibility, high-street areas and are generally well known by our

customers in the local micro markets, and hence serve as destination stores. Our showrooms are stocked with a

wide variety of jewellery products that allow us to target a broad consumer base across genders, socio-economic

status levels and age groups, as well as for various occasions. Products in our showrooms offer a combination of

regional designs customised to local tastes and preferences, as well as more broadly-appealing jewellery, which

offers customers access to a wide variety of products that may be difficult for local jewellers to replicate.

Further, many of our showrooms have an “Aishwaryam” section dedicated to selling higher-volume mass

market products, and a “Muhurat” section dedicated to selling more ornate wedding jewellery. Our typical

showroom in India is a large-format store with an average size of 4,348 sq. ft. and 32 sales staff. We regard the

presentation of jewellery in our showrooms as critical to foster a positive customer experience and our displays

and showroom designs are also curated in a manner that caters to local tastes and preferences.

All of our showrooms are operated and managed by us under the supervision of a store manager who is

responsible for all showroom-level operations and who ultimately reports to a network of regional managers and

business heads who then report to our Chief Executive Officer. Through our centralised ERP system, each level

of our management is able to monitor our showroom-level operations in real-time, including our inventory

management, sales and finance functions. Our multiple levels of management are also involved in our

systematic approach to inventory control. For further details, see “ – Our Operations – Inventory Management

and Security” on page 152.

We hire staff in our showroom who speak the relevant local language and understand the local culture in any

given region in order to establish rapport and trust with customers and to provide a “local” feel to customers.

Sales staff in our showrooms undergo training to ensure they are maintaining our brand standards and

demonstrating our commitment to trust and transparency.

Showroom inventory is reorganised periodically on the basis of feedback from our marketing teams and

customers. Slow-moving inventory is moved to other showrooms that may be more suitable for that particular

product or design.

150

While our showrooms in India are intended to serve as a distinct shopping destination for customers, our

showrooms in the Middle East are generally of a smaller size and typically located in shopping malls to attract

both walk-in and destination traffic, largely from customers of Indian origin.

Online Sales

We also offer jewellery through our online platform, where we cater to a younger and more digitally savvy

customer base. We have a majority stake in Enovate Lifestyles Private Limited and its online platform,

www.candere.com. Customers can browse and purchase jewellery directly from www.candere.com and have it

delivered to their homes. In addition to jewellery, we also offer purchase advance schemes on our online

platform. Our online platform offers us another distribution channel to reach customers and potentially another

avenue through which to drive further traffic to our showrooms. Our revenue from our Candere business

increased from ₹123.02 million in Fiscal 2018 to ₹557.43 million in Fiscal 2020, and increased from 426.85

million in the nine months ended December 31 2019 to 603.70 million in the nine months ended December 31,

2020. We intend to set up Candere kiosks in shopping malls and at some of our showrooms in order to offer our

customers the option to purchase Candere products offline and also offer them the opportunity to tangibly

experience Candere products offered online. We also intend to leverage our increasing engagement with a

digitally savvy consumer base to increase revenues for our jewellery sold online through www.candere.com.

We have endeavoured to establish a strong brand in the Indian jewellery market that our customers associate

with trust and transparency. According to the Technopak Report, we were one of the first jewellery companies

in India to have all of its jewellery BIS hallmarked as well as accompanied by a detailed pricing tag to aid

transparency. These initiatives, along with our customer education and awareness campaigns around the lack of

transparency historically present in the Indian jewellery industry, have helped build the strength of our brand.

Our branding strategy focuses on maintaining consistency in our brand messaging across all of our

communication channels and markets in which we operate. Our training program for our showroom staff and

“My Kalyan” personnel is designed to ensure customers receive a uniform experience of our brand that

demonstrates our strong commitment to trust and transparency.

Marketing

We have invested significantly in the promotion of our brand, particularly in new markets within India and in

the Middle East. Our aggregate expenses for marketing and other advertising efforts in Fiscals 2018, 2019 and

2020 was ₹8,881.14 million and our expenses for marketing and other advertising was ₹3,086.64 million,

₹2,972.59 million,₹2,821.91 million, ₹2,135.85 million and ₹1,139.52 million which amounted to 2.93%,

3.04%, 2.79%, 2.68% and 2.07% of our revenue from operations in Fiscals 2018, 2019 and 2020, and in the nine

months ended December 31, 2019 and 2020, respectively. We believe this investment in marketing and our

brand is one of the key factors which has enabled us to build awareness, enjoy a loyal customer base and expand

successfully across multiple geographies, and we believe that we will continue to benefit from these historical

investments in brand building as we execute upon our future expansion plans.

We utilise a number of avenues to promote our brand and products, including through our “My Kalyan”

network, traditional media outlets, our relationships with national and regional celebrity brand ambassadors and

local influencers, and our online matrimonial site, Kalyan Matrimony.

Brand Ambassadors

We work with regional and national celebrities as well as local influencers throughout India who serve as brand

ambassadors to promote our brand. We typically have long-term relationships with brand ambassadors

throughout various regions in India in order to cater to the diverse linguistic and ethnic groups that are spread

throughout the country. Brand ambassadors feature in our marketing campaigns and their presence at showroom

openings is intended to promote interest in these events as major occasions within the local community. Our

brand ambassadors are carefully selected in order to promote the values and ethos of our brand and our focus on

trust and transparency, and they work with us on an exclusive basis within the jewellery industry. Our brand

ambassadors include celebrities with a mix of national and regional appeal.

151

 National Brand Ambassadors: Amitabh Bachchan, Katrina Kaif, Jaya Bachchan and Shweta Nanda

Bachchan.

 Regional Brand Ambassadors: Prabhu Ganesan (Tamil), Nagarjuna Akkineni (Telugu), Shiva Rajkumar

(Kannada), Manju Warrier (Malayalam).

 Regional Influencers: Pooja Sawant (Marathi), Wamiqa Gabbi (Punjabi), Ritabhari Chakraborthy (Bengali)

and Kinjal Rajpriya (Gujarati)

Media and Creative Marketing

We advertise through several key media outlets to promote our brand and product portfolio, including through

advertisements on television, radio, newspapers, magazines, billboards and the internet. We have our own in-

house creative studio and team and also work with large and experienced creative agencies to help produce

creative content which is market-specific. While all of our advertising campaigns demonstrate our values of

trust and transparency, we also look to localise our advertising campaigns by adapting our media to local

languages and customs in order to appeal to more targeted and relevant demographics within specific markets.

Further, we work with media companies, such as Group M, to acquire optimal advertising slots in order to

maximise the impact of our advertising campaigns.

“My Kalyan” Network

Our “My Kalyan” customer outreach network consists of multiple smaller centres that serve as satellite locations

situated in a wide radius around most of our showrooms in order to promote our brand across urban, semi-urban

and rural areas in India. As of December 31, 2020, we had 766 “My Kalyan” locations and 2,699 dedicated “My

Kalyan” employees located across 21 states and union territories in India, through which we endeavour to

connect and engage with over 10 million customers each year. On average, we have approximately seven “My

Kalyan” locations per showroom.

Our “My Kalyan” locations employ dedicated “My Kalyan” employees who engage in door-to-door and other

direct marketing efforts to promote our brand, showcase our product catalogue, enroll customers in our purchase

advance schemes, enrich our customer database and to help drive traffic to our showrooms. Since wedding-

related jewellery is our highest sold product category, “My Kalyan” employees build relationships with various

players in the wedding ecosystem such as marriage halls, astrologers, caterers, event managers, make-up artists

and other wedding vendors to identify potential jewellery customers as leads, who are likely to purchase our

products given the imminence of special occasions within their extended families, in order to target them with

tailored offerings and promotions. We generally hire “My Kalyan” employees from the communities in which

they serve, with local language skills and relationships, which enables them to more seamlessly build customer

rapport and helps to associate our brand with trust and transparency.

We use technology to help enable the activities of our “My Kalyan” personnel. For example, utilising our state-

of-the-art “Equals” digital platform, our “My Kalyan” employees are able to enroll customers directly into our

purchase advance schemes without needing to bring customers into our locations, and our employees can also

serve as a resource to collect periodic payments from customers enrolled in the scheme. Further, we have

created the “iLead” application to capture and register wedding-related information from various sources which

helps our “My Kalyan” employees target potential new customers.

We intend to continue leveraging our extensive “My Kalyan” network of 766 centres across India to deepen

customer engagement and actively bolster our efforts to acquire a larger customer base in the markets in which

we operate. In many of these markets, particularly in semi-urban and rural areas, the penetration of organised

jewellery companies has historically been low. Furthermore, we believe the local and unorganised jewellery

players who dominate some of these markets have been and may continue to be adversely impacted by the

COVID-19 pandemic. Given this opportunity to access latent demand, we plan to build our employee strength

across our “My Kalyan” centres to increase customer engagement and to drive traffic to our showrooms. We

also intend to expand our “My Kalyan” network in areas where we believe it is currently underpenetrated

relative to the scale of the latent demand opportunity present in those particular markets. Furthermore, as we

continue to embark upon our showroom expansion, we also plan to expand our “My Kalyan” network in tandem

with our showroom footprint to help increase customer traffic to our showrooms.

Website and Social Media

152

We have a dedicated team which is focused on customer relations and marketing through our website

www.kalyanjewellers.net and social media. As with our other marketing channels, we implement our

localisation strategy through region-special offerings in our online marketing campaigns.

Kalyan Matrimony

We have an online matchmaking site named Kalyan Matrimony at www.kalyanmatrimony.com, enabling users

to explore potential marital partners. We are able to leverage customer data from our Kalyan Matrimony site to

identify potential jewellery customers well before their wedding and to send targeted advertisements to promote

brand awareness, particularly for wedding-related jewellery. Acquiring data on individuals potentially seeking

to get married is relevant to our business given the importance of jewellery in Indian weddings. According to the

Technopak Report, the majority of jewellery sales in India are wedding related.

Customer Data

We acquire data to identify and understand customers from numerous sources, including in-person customer

visits, our online platform, our Kalyan Matrimony site and our “My Kalyan” network. Our access to data allows

us to understand customer consumption patterns and preferences, hence enabling targeted advertising. We are

able to target customers through SMS messages, WhatsApp, e-mails and phone calls in order to educate them

about our brand and our offerings, as well as inform them of our latest promotions. We use the assistance of an

external agency for data analytics.

Competition

We face competition from both organised and unorganised companies in the Indian jewellery industry.

According to the Technopak Report, a majority of the Indian jewellery industry consists of unorganised players

who have historically dominated a large part of the market, although their share of the market has been falling

and is expected to continue to decline. We also face competition from organised jewellery companies who

compete with us on a national, regional and local level. We believe we are well-positioned to compete with both

organised and unorganised jewellery companies given our localisation strategy where we tap into local demand

preferences and consumer trends, while at the same time offering the product variety and store experience of a

large, pan-India jeweller. We have established a pan-India presence with strong brand recognition throughout

India and the Middle East, while concurrently having numerous grassroots marketing initiatives, such as our

“My Kalyan” network, which allow us to compete with organised and unorganised jewellery companies at a

regional and local level across a wide range of geographies. While our primary competitor at the national level

is Titan (Tanishq), we have multiple competitors at various regional and local levels across India.

Inventory Management and Security

Inventory Management

We regard efficient inventory management as critical to the success of our business. Our integrated operations

are designed to allow us to move inventory between showrooms based on feedback from our marketing teams,

store personnel and our customers in order to align our jewellery offerings with customer preferences and to

accommodate variations in seasonal buying patterns. Slow-moving and aged inventory is reallocated to other

showrooms with greater sales potential for those products. Furthermore, the fact that our ERP system allows

real-time visibility into our inventory provides our management with a useful tool especially during peak

seasons, such as Diwali, Dhanteras or Akshaya Trithiya, allowing our management to respond quickly to

replenish or reallocate inventory based on shifting customer demand patterns.

We have strict inventory management and monitoring practices in place that allows us to account for each piece

of inventory and to ensure efficiency. We plan our inventory procurement by taking into account targeted sales,

inventory turnover and aging, and generally endeavour to maintain inventory levels in line with customer

demand and seasonal trends.

Our jewellery is typically identified with a unique barcode. We utilise computer systems in each of our

showrooms to track and monitor each piece of inventory, which are further linked to our central ERP system. At

each of our showrooms, we undergo daily inventory checks at the close of business. A barcode inventory check

is completed for a specific section of jewellery products each day whereby the barcode of each piece of

inventory is physically scanned and compared against the ERP system. The remainder of the jewellery sections

for a particular day also undergo inventory counts and are verified by the store manager. In addition, regional

managers or business heads make monthly visits to showrooms to perform inventory weight verifications

153

whereby random sections of jewellery products are weighed and compared against the ERP system to test for

variances. Our entire inventory is scanned, verified and confirmed by regional managers as part of their monthly

visits.

We also create an annual budget at the beginning of each year for our gold and diamond procurement which

takes into account our targeted annual sales in order to have requisite inventory to replenish our stocks. We

regularly analyse our sales results, compare them against our sales targets and adjust jewellery distribution

amongst showrooms accordingly.

We use advanced applications for our backend and financial management. These applications are integrated

across all our other management applications, including our business intelligence solution which provides us

customer, sales and inventory data analytics in multiple dimensions enabling us to make rapid and well-

informed decisions.

Security

We have implemented strict security procedures to ensure our inventory is maintained securely. Each of our

showrooms is equipped with closed-circuit surveillance cameras linked to a digital video recorder. Our

showrooms are equipped with secure vaults with restricted access only for a limited number of selected staff and

our jewellery is placed into these vaults at the close of business each day. All our business heads are provided

with a real-time monitoring tool on their mobile phones to view visuals of the vaults at all times. We also have

contracts with various reputable private security agencies who provide security guards to all of our showrooms.

All of our jewellery in transit is fully insured and mostly handled through secure third-party carriers.

Gold Hedging

It is our belief that the profits generated by the company should be primarily derived from the value-addition the

company creates, which reflects the strength of the Kalyan brand, and not from changes in the price of gold.

Consequently, we generally employ various techniques to hedge our gold inventory to protect us from price

fluctuations, including the use of gold metal loans, as well as forward contracts and options on Indian and

international commodity exchanges.

Gold metal loans provide a natural hedge to any fluctuations in the price of gold. At the time of selling gold that

is procured through gold metal loans, the rate of purchase can be fixed to align the buying and selling rate of the

underlying gold. For gold purchased from customers as well as from regulated banks, forward contracts and

options can be maintained to protect against fluctuations in the price of gold. The Chief Executive Officer of our

Company is responsible for managing and monitoring our hedging policies and portfolio.

Technology

We have implemented a range of technologies throughout our operations with the aim of enhancing the

experience of our customers and improving the efficiency of our operations.

We have a centralised customer relationship management system (“CRM”) which enables us to utilise advanced

analytics to understand customer behaviour, including spending and purchase patterns, both online and offline.

This enables us to personalise marketing efforts to our customers and to continually update our customer

profiles each time a customer visits one of our showrooms, among other touchpoints, which provides our sales

and marketing teams with unique information in order to offer customers products and promotions that may be

of interest based on past behaviour. Our “My Kalyan” operations are supported by our “Equals” platform, which

is a mobile application that our “My Kalyan” employees access through digital tablets and which they can use to

enroll customers into our purchase advance schemes without having to be physically present at one of our

showroom locations and to gather other customer data. We utilise the “near me searches” technology to make

our “My Kalyan” centres and showrooms discoverable across internet searches in order to enable our customers

to contact our showroom or “My Kalyan” centre closest to their location seamlessly. Our iLead application has

been strategically created to capture and register wedding-related information from various sources which helps

our “My Kalyan” employees to target customers at the opportune time for jewellery-related purchases. iLead is

an innovative solution in our industry which consolidates wedding-related information from various potential

sources such as local marriage halls, astrologers, caterers, event managers, make-up artists and other wedding-

related vendors, and provides a consolidated view of potential leads. The tool then analyses this information and

assigns relevant leads to the nearest “My Kalyan” centre based on customer pin codes and automatically sends

154

this information to the “My Kalyan” employees at such centre. This application is also integrated with our

CRM.

We have also implemented a centralised ERP system across all of our showrooms, online portals and offices in

order to maintain control and visibility over our growing business. The system allows for virtual connectivity

across all of our showrooms and transfers data in real-time, allowing our management team to obtain

information regarding inventory, sales and finance. Given it is a centrally hosted system, our management team

is able to analyze sales information across multiple dimensions in real-time. This ERP is accessible only within

Kalyan’s corporate network and is integrated with our HR system. Our showrooms are equipped with two leased

line connections to ensure connectivity even if there is one network outage, ensuring business continuity is

secure from a billing perspective.

Our store ERP is integrated with our online portal www.candere.com and gives customers the flexibility to

redeem advances and promotions either online or offline based on their preference. Our ERP is also integrated

with leading gifting and store valued solutions/vouchers and also provides online/offline redemption flexibility

to customers.

In our Middle East operations, we have radio-frequency identification tags on our jewellery to allow for

verification and accurate inventory management. Our customer relationship program in our Middle East

operations is directly linked with our vendors who maintain our loyalty program in the Middle East as well as

our bank partnerships that allow our customers to purchase jewellery through credit cards.

We have developed a document management system to capture, verify and process our customers’ know-your-

customer, or KYC, information, which we believe improves the speed and accuracy with which we process

customer KYC information. We have also developed a mobile application for our customers to view offers and

promotional campaigns, which we expect to complement with our current online platform at www.candere.com.

We are in the process of enhancing the user interface of our mobile application to cover the loyalty program,

purchase advance scheme enrollments and payments, location-based gold price notifications and celebrity

connect, among others. We intend to integrate our mobile application with our advanced analytics technology to

offer our customers a more customised user experience.

We are in the process of implementing an omni-channel experience for our customers, through which they can

view our product range across all our stores using a mobile application. We have already developed and

deployed a mobile application through which we can digitise and photograph our existing inventory and update

the inventory images to a central repository in real-time. Our “My Kalyan” employees will soon have access to

our entire digital catalogue on their mobile phones and tablets which they can use as part of their direct

marketing efforts. To further enhance the experience, we have rolled out a Virtual-Try-On option at several

showrooms. We are planning to deploy this technology across all our major showrooms as well as on online

portals once user inputs and feedback is incorporated.

Furthermore, all our employees are digitally empowered with our corporate human resource application.

Functionalities including attendance punching, leave requests, announcements, surveys, feedback, training and

targets are all routed and supported through this application.

Insurance

We have purchased insurance in order to manage the risk of losses from potentially harmful events, including:

(i) a package insurance policy covering fire, damage to machinery and electronic equipment, gold/cash in

transit, burglary, third party liability cover and any other risk; (ii) a fidelity guarantee insurance policy; and (iii)

a directors and officers liability insurance policy. These insurance policies are reviewed periodically to ensure

that the coverage is adequate. Our insurance covers all our facilities, including our corporate office, showrooms

and manufacturing facilities.

Employees

As of December 31, 2020, we had 7,230 employees employed across all our subsidiaries and locations in India

and the Middle East, of which 6,895 are employed in India and 335 are employed in the Middle East. The

thereafter within their particular domains. All sales staff are provided digital training and are subsequently tested

to ensure compliance. In addition, sales staff are provided general training sessions at least once a year as well

as periodic specialised training sessions to target specific areas of improvement and development based on

customer feedback. We incentivise our sales staff by linking a significant portion of their compensation to sales,

as well as referrals.

Companies Act, 2013 and the Companies (Corporate Social Responsibility) Rules, 2014. We believe that our

CSR initiatives contribute to our overall strategy of engaging with our customers and localizing our brand. We

trademarks in India. The purpose of the Trade Marks Act is to grant exclusive rights to marks such as a brand,

label and heading and to obtain relief in case of infringement and for commercial purposes as a trade

description. Application for trademark registry has to be made to Controller-General of Patents, Designs and

Trade Marks who is the Registrar of Trademarks for the purposes of the Trade Marks Act. The Trade Marks Act

The Copyright Act, 1957, along with the Copyright Rules, 2013 (“Copyright Laws”) governs copyright

protection in India. Even while copyright registration is not a prerequisite for acquiring or enforcing a copyright

in an otherwise copyrightable work, registration under the Copyright Laws acts as a prima facie evidence of the

particulars entered therein and helps expedite infringement proceedings and reduce delay caused due to

evidentiary considerations. The Copyright Laws prescribe a fine, imprisonment or both for violations, with

enhanced penalty on second or subsequent convictions.

Miscellaneous Laws

The Legal Metrology Act, 2009

The Legal Metrology Act, 2009 (“Legal Metrology Act”) seeks to establish and enforce standards of weights

and measures, regulate trade and commerce in weights, measures and other goods which are sold or distributed

by weight, measure or number and for matters connected therewith or incidental thereto. The Legal Metrology

Act provides that for prescribed specifications all weights and measures should to be based on metric system

only. Further, the Legal Metrology Act lays down penalties for various offences, including but not limited to,

use or sale of non-standard weight or measure, contravention of prescribed standards, counterfeiting of seals and

The Bureau of Indian Standards Act, 2016

The Bureau of Indian Standards Act, 2016 (“BIS Act”) provides for the establishment of a national standards

body for the harmonious development of the activities of standardization, conformity assessment and quality

assurance of goods, articles, processes, systems and services. Under the BIS Act, the Central Government, after

consulting the Bureau of Indian Standards (“BIS”), can notify which precious metal articles or other goods or

articles are required to be marked with a ‘Hallmark’ or ‘Standard Mark’, subject to certain conditions for sale

and testing of such articles. Under the BIS Scheme, the Government of India has identified the ‘Bureau of

160

Indian Standards’ as the sole agency in India to operate the BIS Scheme which aims to ensure that quality

control is built in the system in alignment with the international criteria on hallmarking. Functions of the bureau

include, inter-alia, (a) recognizing as an Indian standard, any standard established for any article or process by

any other institution in India or elsewhere; (b) specifying a standard mark which shall be of such design and

contain such particulars as may be prescribed to represent a particular Indian standard; and (c) conducting such

inspection and taking such samples of any material or substance as may be necessary to see whether any article

or process in relation to which the standard mark has been used conforms to the Indian Standard or whether the

standard mark has been improperly used in relation to any article or process with or without a license. The

bureau is also the licensing authority for quality standards.

The Bureau of Indian Standards (Hallmarking) Regulations, 2018 prescribe that all jewellery manufacturers

must obtain a certificate of registration from the BIS in order to sell precious metal articles notified under the

BIS Act. The certificate of registration shall be granted to a specific premises and will be valid for a period of

five years. The Hallmarking of Gold Jewellery and Gold Artefacts Order, 2020, which will come into effect on

June 1, 2021, prescribes that gold jewellery and gold artefacts shall be sold only by registered jewellers through

certified sales outlets, after fulfilling the terms and conditions of certificate of registration as specified in the

Bureau of Indian Standards (Hallmarking) Regulations, 2018. However, certain precious metal articles are

excluded from the above order, including any article meant for export, which conforms to any specification

required by the foreign buyer, any article of gold thread and an article with weight less than two grams.

Special Economic Zone

A SEZ is a geographically bound duty free zone for the purposes of trade and operations. SEZs were first

introduced in April, 2000 as a part of the Export-Import Policy. The Special Economic Zones Act, 2005 (the

“SEZ Act”) and the Special Economic Zones Rules, 2006 (the “SEZ Rules”) simplified the procedure for

development, operation and maintenance of the SEZs and for the setting up of and conducting business in the

SEZs. Under the SEZ Act and the SEZ Rules, the incentives and facilities offered to the SEZ units include:

a. exemption from payment of taxes, duties or cess for any goods or services exported out of, or imported

into, or procured from SEZs by SEZ units or developers, subject to the terms, conditions and

limitations as may be prescribed, under the enactments specified in the SEZ Act; and

b. 100% income tax exemption on export income for SEZ units under Section 10AA of the Income Tax

Act, 1961 for the first five assessment years, 50% for the next five assessment years thereafter and 50%

of the ploughed back export profit for the next five assessment years.

However, in accordance with Section 10AA of the I.T. Act read with the Taxation and Other Laws (Relaxation

of Certain Provisions) Ordinance, 2020 and the notification dated June 24, 2020 issued by the Central Board of

Direct Taxes, Department of Revenue, Ministry of Finance, only SEZ units, which began manufacturing or

approval, required to be issued in accordance with the provisions of the SEZ Act has been issued on or before

March 31, 2020, shall be eligible for the incentive referred to in (b) above.

For setting up a unit in an SEZ, a letter of approval has to be obtained from the Development Commissioner of

the concerned SEZ. The grant of a letter of approval is dependent upon the unit meeting certain terms and

conditions, as set out in the SEZ Act and the SEZ Rules. Such conditions include, among other things, the

achievement of positive net foreign exchange to be calculated cumulatively for a period of five years from the

commencement of production, in accordance with the formula set out in the SEZ Rules and the execution of a

bond-cum-legal undertaking with regard to its obligations pertaining to proper utilization and accountal of

goods, imported or procured duty free and the achievement of positive net foreign exchange.

The Consumer Protection Act, 2019

The Ministry of Consumer Affairs notified certain sections of the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 (“COPRA”)

by way of the notification dated July 15, 2020 (with effect from July 20, 2020), including sections regulating the

formation and functioning of the Consumer Protection Council at the national, state and district levels, the

formation and functioning of Consumer Dispute Redressal Commissions at the national, state and district levels,

mediation of consumer disputes, product liability actions and punishment for manufacturing for sale or storing,

selling or distributing or importing products containing adulterants and spurious goods.

161

The COPRA provides a mechanism for the consumer to file a complaint against a product manufacturer, seller

or service provider in cases of unfair contract or trade practices, restrictive trade practices, defected goods,

goods which are hazardous or likely to be hazardous to life being sold in contravention to safety standards,

deficiency in services and price charged being unlawful. It also places product liability on a manufacturer or

product service provider or product seller, to compensate for any harm caused by defective product or

deficiency in services. It provides for a three-tier consumer grievance redressal mechanism at the national, state

and district levels. Non-compliance of the orders of the redressal commissions attracts criminal penalties. The

COPRA has, inter alia, also introduced a Central Consumer Protection Authority to regulate matters relating to

violation of rights of consumers, unfair trade practices and false or misleading advertisements, which are

prejudicial to the interests of public and consumers and promote, protect and enforce the rights of consumers.

The COPRA has also brought e-commerce entities and their customers under its purview including providers of

technologies or processes for enabling product sellers to engage in advertising or selling goods or services to a

consumer, online market places and online auction sites.

The Ministry of Consumer Affairs issued the Consumer Protection (E-Commerce) Rules, 2020 (“E-Commerce

Rules”) under the COPRA on July 23, 2020 which govern the online sale of goods, services, digital products by

entities which own, operate or manage digital or electronic facility or platform for electronic commerce (“E-

Commerce Entities”), all models of e-commerce (including marketplace or inventory based), and all e-

commerce sellers. The E-Commerce rules lay down the duties and liabilities of E-Commerce Entities and e-

commerce sellers.

Key Regulations applicable to our Material Subsidiaries

United Arab Emirates (“UAE”)

UAE Federal Law No. 2 of 2015 Concerning Commercial Companies as amended pursuant to UAE Federal

Decree No. 26 of 2020

The UAE Companies Law sets out a legal framework that concerns partnerships as well as corporate vehicles

(private and public) operating in the UAE. It particularly prescribes the regime in respect of incorporation of any

such entities and their capital structure, membership, partnership, shareholding, their management and

dissolution.

The UAE Companies Law governs limited liability companies as well as branches of foreign companies.

Historically, under the UAE Companies Law, at least 51 % of the capital in a UAE-incorporated entity other

than a free zone company, was required to be legally owned by a UAE national (natural or legal persons) at all

times (“Local Ownership Restriction”).

Some sectors of operation such as, finance, taxi transport, labour supply and real estate agency-related services

required a higher percentage of shares to be held by UAE nationals.

In connection with the Local Ownership Restriction, the UAE has also adopted the concealment law

(“Concealment Law”). The Concealment Law provides that it is not permissible to allow a non-UAE national,

whether by use of another individual’s name or through any other method, to practise any economic or

professional activity that is not permissible for him to do so in accordance with the law and decrees of the UAE.

The Concealment Law was scheduled to come into effect in November 2007, however, by way of a cabinet

resolution, the UAE Federal Government suspended the application of the Concealment Law until November

2009 and it was further suspended until September 2011, at which time it came into force.

On September 30 2020, UAE Federal Decree No 26 of 2020 Amending Certain Provisions of the Companies

Law (“Decree”) was enacted, which directly impacts the CCL’s position in respect of the Local Ownership

Restriction. Particularly, under the Decree:

(a) reference to the Local Ownership Restriction has been repealed, with the effect from April 1, 2021; and

(b) a committee shall be formed by a resolution of the Federal Cabinet (“CCL 2020 Committee”).

162

The CCL 2020 Committee will be authorised to propose activities with a strategic impact on the UAE economy

and the controls (possibly the Local Ownership Restriction) required to license the companies that undertake

any of these activities.

As the CCL 2020 Committee is yet to be formed, we are not in a position to opine on the UAE Local Restriction

that will apply to the relevant subsidiaries in the mainland UAE post April 1, 2021.

For further details, see “Risk Factors” on page 25.

UAE Federal Law No. 8 of 1980 on the Regulation of Labour Relations, as amended

leave and pay, sick leave and pay, maternity leave and pay, daily and weekly working hours, overtime pay,

UAE have implemented their own employment regulations which are (with the exception of the Abu Dhabi

Global Market and the Dubai International Financial Centre) to be read in conjunction with, or in addition to,

Under UAE law, unlike the UAE mainland, free zones grant foreigners the capacity to own 100% of an entity.

Free zones are areas that are governed by their own framework of regulations, as such, the provisions of the

UAE Companies Law, and innately, the Local Ownership Restriction does not apply to companies established

there. In light of this, non-UAE nationals are permitted to set up companies wholly owned by them, or

otherwise, under a higher shareholding than that stipulated under the Local Ownership Restriction, in free zone

areas. Accordingly, our Company legally wholly owns KJFZE. For details, see “Risk Factors”, “Key

Regulations and Policies”, “Our Business” and “History and Certain Corporate Matters – Material

agreements” on pages 25, 157, 135 and 170, respectively.

Notes forming part of the Restated Consolidated Financial Information

The financial statements of the subsidiary companies which are included in the consolidation are drawn upto the

same reporting date as that of the Company i.e. December 31, 2020, December 31, 2019, March 31, 2020, 2019

and 2018. The financial statements of the subsidiaries included in consolidation are audited except Kalyan

Jewelers, Inc., USA and Kalyan Jewellers Bahrain W.L.L (other than the nine months ended December 31, 2020

in the case of Kalyan Jewellers Bahrain W.L.L).

(iv) Use of estimates and judgement

The preparation of Restated Consolidated Financial Information in conformity with Ind AS, requires

management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies

and the reported amount of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses and disclosure of contingent liabilities.

Such estimates and assumptions are based on management’s evaluation of relevant facts and circumstances as

on the date of financial statements. The actual outcome may diverge from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates

are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the

period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Useful lives of property, plant and equipment:

The Company reviews the useful life of property, plant and equipment at the end of each reporting period. This

re-assessment may result in change in depreciation expense in future periods.

Fair value of financial assets and liabilities and investments:

The Company measures certain financial assets and liabilities on fair value basis at each balance sheet date or at

the time they are assessed for impairment. Fair value measurement that are based on significant unobservable

inputs (Level 3) requires estimates of operating margin, discount rate, future growth rate, terminal values, etc.

based on management’s best estimate about future developments.

(v) Functional and presentation currency

Items included in the financial statements of the Group are measured using the currency of the primary economic

environment in which the Group operates (i.e. the “functional currency”). The Restated Consolidated Financial

Information are presented in Indian Rupee, the national currency of India, which is the functional currency of

the Holding Company.

(vi) Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognised upon transfer of control of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that

reflects the consideration the Group expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services.

a) Sale of goods: Revenue from the sale of products is recognised at the point in time when control is

transferred to the customer.

Revenue is measured based on the transaction price, which is the consideration, net of customer

incentives, discounts, variable considerations, payments made to customers, other similar charges, as

specified in the contract with the customer. Additionally, revenue excludes taxes collected from

customers, which are subsequently remitted to governmental authorities.

b) Interest income: Interest income from a financial asset is recognised when it is probable that the

economic benefits will flow to the Group and the amount of income can be measured reliably. Interest

income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest

rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the

expected life of the financial asset of that asset’s net carrying amount on initial recognition.

229

Kalyan Jewellers India Limited

Notes forming part of the Restated Consolidated Financial Information

(vii) Leases

The Group’s lease asset classes consist of leases for buildings. The Company, at the inception of a contract,

assesses whether the contract is a lease or not lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the

right to control the use of an identified asset for a time in exchange for a consideration. This policy has been

applied to contracts existing and entered into on or after April 1, 2017.

The Group recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. The right-of-use

asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease

payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of

costs to dismantle and remove the underlying asset or to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is

located, less any lease incentives received.

The right-of-use asset is subsequently depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date

to the end of the lease term.

The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the

commencement date, discounted using the Group’s incremental borrowing rate. It is remeasured when there is a

change in future lease payments arising from a change in an index or rate, if there is a change in the Group’s

estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee, or if the Group changes its

assessment of whether it will exercise a purchase, extension or termination option. When the lease liability is

remeasured in this way, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset, or

is recorded in profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero.

The Group has elected not to recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that have a

lease term of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets. The Group recognises the lease payments

associated with these leases as an expense over the lease term.

(viii) Foreign currencies

In preparing the financial statements of the Group, transactions in currencies other than the entity’s functional

currency (foreign currencies) are recognized at the rates of exchange prevailing at the date of the transaction. At

the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates

prevailing at that date. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency

are not retranslated.

Exchange differences on monetary items are recognised in the statement of profit and loss in the period in which

they arise except for exchange differences on transactions designated as fair value hedge.

(ix) Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which

are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale are added

to the cost of those assets, until such time the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.

All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

230

Kalyan Jewellers India Limited

Notes forming part of the Restated Consolidated Financial Information

(x) Employee benefits

The Group participates in various employee benefit plans. Post-employment benefits are classified as either

defined contribution plans or defined benefit plans. Under a defined contribution plan, the Group’s only

obligation is to pay a fixed amount with no obligation to pay further contributions if the fund does not hold

sufficient assets to pay all employee benefits. The related actuarial and investment risks fall on the employee.

The expenditure for defined contribution plans is recognized as expense during the period when the employee

provides service. Under a defined benefit plan, it is the Group’s obligation to provide agreed benefits to the

employees. The related actuarial risks fall on the Group. The present value of the defined benefit obligations is

calculated using the projected unit credit method.

Short-term employee benefits

All short-term employee benefits such as salaries, wages, bonus, and other benefits which fall within 12 months

of the period in which the employee renders related services which entitles them to avail such benefits and non-

accumulating compensated absences are recognised on an undiscounted basis and charged to the statement of

profit and loss.

A liability is recognised for benefits accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries in the period the

related service is rendered at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in exchange for that

service.

Defined contribution plan

The Group’s contribution to provident fund and employee state insurance scheme are considered as defined

contribution plans and are charged as an expense based on the amount of contribution required to be made and

when services are rendered by the employees.

Defined benefit plan

In accordance with the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972, the Group provides for a lump sum payment to eligible

employees, at retirement or termination of employment based on the last drawn salary and years of employment

with the Group. The gratuity fund is unfunded. The Group’s obligation in respect of the gratuity plan, which is

a defined benefit plan, is provided for based on actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method.

Actuarial gains or losses are recognized in other comprehensive income. Further, the profit or loss does not

include an expected return on plan assets. Instead net interest recognized in profit or loss is calculated by applying

the discount rate used to measure the defined benefit obligation to the net defined benefit liability or asset. The

actual return on the plan assets above or below the discount rate is recognized as part of re-measurement of net

defined liability or asset through other comprehensive income.

Remeasurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses is reflected immediately in the balance sheet with charge

or credit recognised in other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur. Remeasurement

recognised in other comprehensive income is reflected in retained earnings and is not reclassified to the statement

of profit and loss.

(xi) Taxation

Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

a) Current tax: Current tax is the amount of tax payable on the taxable income for the year as determined in

accordance with the applicable tax rates and the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961 and other

applicable tax laws.

231

Kalyan Jewellers India Limited

Notes forming part of the Restated Consolidated Financial Information

b) Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) paid in accordance with the tax laws, which gives future economic benefits

in the form of adjustment to future income tax liability, is considered as an asset if there is convincing

evidence that the Group will pay normal income tax. Accordingly, MAT is recognised as an asset in the

Balance Sheet when it is highly probable that future economic benefit associated with it will flow to the

Group.

c) Deferred tax: Deferred tax is recognized using the balance sheet approach. Deferred tax assets and liabilities

are recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the

financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred

tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences.

Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is

probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be

utilised. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and

reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow

all or part of the asset to be utilised.

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in

which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted

or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and

assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Group expects, at the

end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

(xii) Property, Plant and Equipment

Land and buildings held for use in the production or supply of goods or services, or for administrative purposes,

are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Freehold land is not

depreciated.

Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any.

The cost of property, plant and equipment comprises its purchase price/ acquisition cost, net of any trade

discounts and rebates, any import duties and other taxes (other than those subsequently recoverable from the tax

authorities), any directly attributable expenditure on making the asset ready for its intended use, other incidental

expenses and interest on borrowings attributable to acquisition of qualifying property, plant and equipment up

to the date the asset is ready for its intended use. Machinery spares which can be used only in connection with

an item of Property, plant and equipment and whose use is expected to be irregular are capitalised and depreciated

over the useful life of the principal item of the relevant assets. Subsequent expenditure on property, plant and

equipment after its purchase / completion is capitalised only if such expenditure results in an increase in the

future benefits from such asset beyond its previously assessed standard of performance.

Depreciation on Property, plant and equipment (other than freehold land) has been provided on the straight-line

method as per the useful life prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 except in respect of

Aeroplanes/Helicopters (30 years with an estimated residual value of 5%) in whose case the life of the assets has

been assessed as under based on technical advice, taking into account the nature of the asset, the estimated usage

of the asset, the operating conditions of the asset, past history of replacement, anticipated technological changes,

manufacturers warranties and maintenance support, etc.

The estimated useful life of the tangible assets and the useful life are reviewed at the end of the each financial

year and the depreciation period is revised to reflect the changed pattern, if any.

232

Kalyan Jewellers India Limited

Notes forming part of the Restated Consolidated Financial Information

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits

are expected to arise from continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an

item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying

amount of the asset and is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

(xiii) Investment Property

Investment properties are properties held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation (including property under

construction for such purposes). Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs.

Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are measured in accordance with Ind AS 16's

requirements for cost model.

An investment property is derecognised upon disposal or when the investment property is permanently

withdrawn from use and no future economic benefits are expected from the disposal. Any gain or loss arising on

derecognition of the property (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying

amount of the asset) is included in profit or loss in the period in which the property is derecognised.

(xiv) Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment. Intangible assets are amortised

over their respective estimated useful lives on a straight line basis, from the date that they are available for use.

The estimated useful life of an identifiable intangible assets is based on a number of factors including the effects

of obsolescence, demand, competition and other economic factors (such as the stability of the industry and known

technological advances) and the level of maintenance expenditures required to obtain the expected future cash

flows from the asset.

Estimated useful lives of the intangible assets is 5 years. The estimated useful life of the intangible assets and

the amortisation period are reviewed at the end of the each financial year and the amortisation period is revised

to reflect the changed pattern, if any.

(xv) Impairment of tangible and intangible assets

At the end of each reporting period, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets

to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such

indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the

impairment loss (if any).

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. In assessing value in use,

the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects

current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates

of future cash flows have not been adjusted.

If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the

asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss. When

an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate

of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that

would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. A reversal of

an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis and whenever there is an indication that goodwill may be

impaired, relying on a number of factors including operating results, business plans and future cash flows.

(xvi) Inventories

Inventories [other than quantities of gold for which the price is yet to be determined with the suppliers (Unfixed

gold)] are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. In respect of gold, cost is determined on first-in-

first-out basis, for silver cost is determined on annual weighted average basis and in respect of studded jewellery

is determined on specific identification basis.

Unfixed gold is valued at the gold prices prevailing on the period closing date.

Cost comprises all costs of purchase including duties and taxes (other than those subsequently recoverable by

the Group), freight inwards and other expenditure directly attributable to acquisition. Work-in-progress and

finished goods include appropriate proportion of overheads and, where applicable, excise duty.

Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price for inventories less all estimated costs of completion

and costs necessary to make the sale.

(xvii) Provisions and contingencies

Provisions: A provision is recognised when the Group has a present obligation as a result of past events and it is

probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, in respect of which a reliable

estimate can be made.

The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present

obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the

obligation. When a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its

carrying amount in the present value of those cash flows (when the effect of time value of money is material).

Contingent liabilities: Contingent liabilities are not recognised but are disclosed in notes to accounts.

(xviii) Business combination and Goodwill

Business combinations are accounted for using the purchase (acquisition) method. The cost of an acquisition is

measured as the fair value of the assets given, equity instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed at

the date of exchange. The cost of acquisition also includes the fair value of any contingent consideration.

Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are

measured initially at their fair value on the date of acquisition. Transaction costs incurred in connection with a

business combination are expensed as incurred.

The excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group’s share in the fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable assets,

liabilities and contingent liabilities is recognized as goodwill. If the excess is negative, a bargain purchase gain

is recognized in capital reserve.

(xix) Financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Group becomes a party to the contractual

provisions of the instruments.

234

Kalyan Jewellers India Limited

Notes forming part of the Restated Consolidated Financial Information

Financial assets and liabilities are initially recognised at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable

to financial assets and liabilities [other than financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value through profit

and loss (FVTPL)] are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or liabilities, as appropriate

on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to acquisition of financial assets or liabilities

measured at FVTPL are recognised immediately in the statement of profit and loss.

a) Non-derivative Financial assets: All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognised

and derecognised on a trade date basis. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of

financial assets that require delivery of assets within the time frame established by regulation or

convention in the marketplace.

All recognised financial assets are subsequently measured in their entirety at either amortised cost or

fair value, depending on the classification of the financial assets.

Financial assets at amortised cost

A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if both of the following conditions are met:

a) the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order

to collect contractual cash flows and

b) the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely

payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.

Effective interest method:

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a debt instrument and of

allocating interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate that exactly discounts

estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the debt instrument, or, where appropriate, a

shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.

Income is recognised on an effective interest basis for debt instruments other than those financial assets.

Interest income is recognised in profit or loss and is included in the “Other income” line item.

b) Derecognition of financial assets: A financial asset is derecognised only when the

- Group has transferred the rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset or

- retains the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of the financial asset, but assumes a contractual

obligation to pay the cash flows to one or more recipients.

When the entity has transferred an asset, the Group evaluates whether it has transferred substantially all

risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset. In such cases, the financial asset is derecognised.

Whether the entity has not transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial

asset, the financial asset is not derecognised.

Where the entity has neither transferred a financial asset nor retains substantially all risks and rewards

of ownership of the financial asset, the financial asset is derecognised if the Group has not retained

control of the financial asset. When the Group retains control of the financial asset, the asset is continued

to be recognised to the extent of continuing involvement in the financial asset.

c) Foreign exchange gains and losses: The fair value of financial assets denominated in a foreign

currency is determined in that foreign currency and translated at the spot rate at the end of each reporting

period.

For foreign currency denominated financial assets measured at amortised cost and FVTPL, the

exchange differences are recognised in statement of profit and loss.

235

Kalyan Jewellers India Limited

Notes forming part of the Restated Consolidated Financial Information

d) Financial liabilities: All financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the

effective interest method or at FVTPL.

However, financial liabilities that arise when a transfer of a financial asset does not qualify for

derecognition or when the continuing involvement approach applies, financial guarantee contracts

issued by the Group, and commitments issued by the Group to provide a loan at below-market interest

rate are measured in accordance with the specific accounting policies set out below.

Financial liabilities at FVTPL

Financial liabilities at FVTPL are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on remeasurment

recognised in statement of profit and loss. The net gain or loss recognised in statement of profit and loss

incorporates any interest paid on the financial liability and is included in the ‘Other income/Other

expenses’ line item.

Financial liabilities subsequently measured at amortised cost

Financial liabilities that are not held-for-trading and are not designated as at FVTPL are measured at

amortised cost at the end of subsequent accounting periods. The carrying amounts of financial liabilities

that are subsequently measured at amortised cost are determined based on the effective interest method.

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and

of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly

discounts estimated future cash payments through the expected life of the financial liability, or (where

appropriate) a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.

Foreign exchange gains and losses

For financial liabilities that are denominated in a foreign currency and are measured at amortised cost

at the end of each reporting period, the foreign exchange gains and losses are determined based on the

amortised cost of the instruments and are recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

The fair value of financial liabilities denominated in a foreign currency is determined in that foreign

currency and translated at the spot rate at the end of the reporting period. For financial liabilities that

are measured as at FVTPL, the foreign exchange component forms part of the fair value gains or losses

and is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

De-recognition of financial liabilities

The Group derecognises financial liabilities when, and only when, the Group’s obligations are

discharged, cancelled or have expired.

An exchange between with a lender of debt instruments with substantially different terms is accounted

for as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the recognition of a new financial liability

(xx) Hedge accounting

The Group designates certain hedging instruments as fair value hedges/cash flow hedges. At the inception of the

hedge relationship, the entity documents the relationship between the hedging instrument and the hedged item,

along with its risk management objectives and its strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. The use

of derivative financial instruments is governed by the Group’s policies approved by the Board of Directors,

which provide written principles on the use of such instruments consistent with the Group’s risk management

strategy. Furthermore, at the inception of the hedge and on an ongoing basis, the Group documents whether the

hedging instrument is highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values of the hedged item attributable to the

hedged risk.

236

Kalyan Jewellers India Limited

Notes forming part of the Restated Consolidated Financial Information

Fair value hedges

Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value at the date the derivative contracts are entered into and are

subsequently remeasured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is

recognised in statement of profit and loss immediately unless the derivative is designated and effective as a

hedging instrument, in which event the timing of the recognition in profit or loss depends on the nature of the

hedging relationship and the nature of the hedged item.

Hedge accounting is discontinued when the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated, or exercised, or

when it no longer qualifies for hedge accounting. The fair value adjustment to the carrying amount of the hedged

item arising from the hedged risk is amortised to profit or loss from that date.

Cash flow hedges

Derivative financial instruments to manage risks associated with gold price fluctuations relating to certain highly

probable forecasted transactions, foreign currency fluctuations relating to certain firm commitments fall under

the category of cash flow hedges. The Group has designated derivative financial instruments taken for gold price

fluctuations as cash flow hedges relating to highly probable forecasted transactions.

Hedging instruments are initially measured at fair value, and are re-measured at subsequent reporting dates.

Changes in the fair value of these derivatives that are designated and effective as hedges of future cash flows are

recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated under the heading hedging reserve and the

ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the statement of profit and loss. For forecasted transactions, any

cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument recognized in hedging reserve is retained until the forecast

transaction occurs upon which it is recognized in the statement of profit and loss.

If a hedged transaction is no longer expected to occur, the net cumulative gain or loss accumulated in hedging

reserve is recognized immediately to the statement of profit and loss. The Group has designated derivative

financial instruments taken for gold price fluctuations as cash flow hedges relating to highly probable forecasted

transactions under the previous GAAP.

On the transition date to Ind AS, the Group had assessed that all the designated hedging relationship qualifies

for hedge accounting under Ind AS 109. Consequently, the Group continues to apply hedge accounting on and

after the date of transition date to Ind AS.

(xxi) Segment reporting

Operating segments are reported in the manner consistent with the internal reporting to the chief operating

decision maker (CODM). The Group is reported at an overall level, and hence there are no separate reportable

segments as per Ind AS 108.

(xxii) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash comprises cash on hand and demand deposits with banks. Cash equivalents are short-term balances (with

an original maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition) and highly liquid investments that are

readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to insignificant risk of changes in value.

For the purposes of the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, in banks and

demand deposits with banks, net of outstanding bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand, book overdraft

and are considered part of the Group’s cash management system.

237

(xxiii) Earnings per share (EPS)

Basic earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during

the period.

Diluted EPS is computed by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary equity holders by the weighted

average number of equity shares considered for deriving basic EPS and also weighted average number of equity

shares that could have been issued upon conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares. Dilutive potential

equity shares are deemed converted as of the beginning of the period, unless issued at a later date. Dilutive

potential equity shares are determined independently for each period presented. The number of equity shares and

potentially dilutive equity shares are adjusted for bonus shares, as appropriate.

(xxiv) Operating Cycle

Based on the nature of products / activities of the Group and the normal time between acquisition of assets and

their realisation in cash or cash equivalents, the Group has determined its operating cycle as 12 months for the

purpose of classification of its assets and liabilities as current and non-current.

(xxv) Recent IND AS and other statutory/ legal announcements

The Code on Social Security,2020 (‘Code’) relating to employee benefits during employment and post

employment benefits received Presidential assent in September 2020. The Code has been published in the

Gazette of India. However, the date on which the Code will come into effect has not been notified. The Group

will assess the impact of the Code when it comes into effect and will record any related impact in the period the

Code becomes effective.

Ministry of Corporate Affairs ("MCA") notifies new standard or amendments to the existing standards. There is

no such notification which would have been applicable from 01 January 2021.

independent valuers for the purposes of bank financing at the time availing/renewing such financing facility. The fair value hierarchy is at level 2, which is derived using the market

comparable approach based on recent market prices without any significant adjustments being made to the market observable data.(refer note 35.2 for note on fair value hierarchy).

The Company generally operates on a cash and carry model, and hence the expected credit loss allowance for trade receivables is insignificant. The concentration of credit risk is also

limited due to the fact that the customer base is large and unrelated.

The deposits maintained by the Company with banks comprise time deposits,(excluding the fixed deposit referred in iv above) which can be withdrawn by the Company at any point

without prior notice or penalty on the principal.

Actuarial assumptions

The estimates of rate of escalation in salary considered in actuarial valuation, take into account inflation, seniority, promotion and other relevant factors including supply and demand in the employment

market. The above information is certified by the actuary. The mortality rates considered are as per the published rates in the Indian Assured Lives Mortality (2006-08) Ult table.

The key actuarial assumptions to which the defined benefit plans are particularly sensitive to are discount rate and full salary escalation rate. The sensitivity analysis below, have been determined based on

reasonably possible changes of the assumptions occurring at end of the reporting period , while holding all other assumptions constant. The result of Sensitivity analysis is given below:

The sensitivity analysis presented above may not be representative of the actual change in the defined benefit obligation as it is unlikely that the change in assumptions would occur in isolation of one

another as some of the assumptions may be correlated.

The retirement age of employees of the Company is 58 years.

Note 35 - Financial instruments

Notes:

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values:

B. Fair value hierarchy

35.3 - Financial risk management objective

i) Fair values of the Group’s interest-bearing borrowings are determined by using EIR method using discount rate that reflects the issuer’s borrowing rate as at the end of the reporting

year. The own non- performance risk as at March 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 was assessed to be insignificant.

ii) The Group enters into derivative financial instruments with various counterparties, principally banks with investment grade credit ratings. As at March 31, 2020, the marked-to-

market value of derivative asset positions is net of a credit valuation adjustment attributable to derivative counterparty default risk. The changes in counterparty credit risk had no

material effect on the hedge effectiveness assessment for derivatives designated in hedge relationship and other financials instruments recognised at fair value.

The Group uses the following hierarchy for determining and/or disclosing the fair value of financial instruments by valuation techniques. The three levels are defined based on the

observability of significant inputs to the measurement, as follows:

Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices).

Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

The Group's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks. The Group's primary focus is to foresee the unpredictability of such risks and seek to minimize potential adverse effects

on its financial performance.

The Group has a robust risk management process and framework in place. This process is coordinated by the Company's Board, which meets regularly to review risks as well as the

progress against the planned actions. The Board seeks to identify, evaluate business risks and challenges across the Group through such framework. These risks include market risks,

credit risk and liquidity risk.

The risk management process aims to:

- improve financial risk awareness and risk transparency

- identify, control and monitor key risks

- identify risk accumulations

- provide management with reliable information on the Group’s risk situation

- improve financial returns

Quantitative disclosures fair value measurement hierarchy

The derivative instruments in designated hedge accounting relationships is measured at fair value at level 1, with valuation technique being use of market available inputs such as gold

prices and foreign exchange rates.

The management assessed that fair values of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, other financial assets, trade payables and other financial liabilities recorded at amortised cost

is considered to be a reasonable approximation of fair value.

The line items in the Balance Sheet that include the above forward contracts are other financial assets/(liabilities).

The Group is exposed to fluctuations in gold price (including fluctuations in foreign currency) arising on purchase/ sale of gold. The Group's business objective includes safe-guarding

its earnings against adverse price movements of gold as well as foreign exchange risks.

The Group has adopted a structured risk management process to hedge all these risks within an acceptable risk limit and an approved hedge accounting framework which allows for

fair value hedges/cash flow hedges, as designated at the inception of the hedge as well as other forward contracts. The risk management strategy against gold price fluctuation also

includes procuring gold on loan basis, with a flexibility to fix price of gold at any time during the tenor of the loan.

The Group has entered into contracts to sell gold for USD and sell USD for INR contracts to protect the inventory prices (in case of fair value hedges) / price fluctuations relating to

certain highly probable forecasted transactions (in case of cash flow hedges). The Group assesses the effectiveness of its designated hedges by using the same hedge ratio as that

resulting from the quantities of the hedged item and the hedging instrument that the Group actually uses. However, this hedge ratio will be rebalanced, when required (i.e., when the

hedge ratio for risk management purposes is no longer optimal but the risk management objective remains unchanged and the hedge continues to qualify for hedge accounting), by

adjusting weightings of the hedged item and the hedging instrument. The forward contracts which are not designated as above are marked to market at each balance sheet date and

corresponding gain/ loss is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss. The Group does not enter into or trade financial instruments including derivative financial instruments, for

speculative purposes.

The table below shows the position of hedging against probable forecast sales (commodity price risk) and currency forwards (currency risk) as of the balance sheet date.

Note 35 - Financial instruments

Credit Risk

Liquidity risk

The Group requires funds both for short-term operational needs as well as for long-term expansion programmes. The Group remains committed to maintaining a healthy liquidity ratio,

deleveraging and strengthening the balance sheet. The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate support of facilities from its holding Group, and by continuously

monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and by matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.

The Group’s treasury department is responsible for liquidity, funding as well as settlement management. In addition, processes and policies related to such risks are overseen by senior

management.

The Group's financial liability is represented significantly by long term and short term borrowings from banks and trade payables. The maturity profile of the Group’s short term and

long term borrowings and trade payables based on the remaining period from the date of balance sheet to the contractual maturity date is given in the table below. The figures reflect

the contractual undiscounted cash obligation of the Group.

(ii) Assets:

The Group’s financial assets are carried at amortised cost and are at fixed rate only. They are, therefore, not subject to interest rate risk since neither the carrying amount nor the future

cash flows will fluctuate because of a change in market interest rates.

Credit risk is the risk that a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument will fail to perform or pay amounts due to the Group causing financial loss. It arises from cash and cash

equivalents, deposits with banks and financial institutions, security deposits, loans given and principally from credit exposures to customers relating to outstanding receivables. The

Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk is limited to the carrying amount of financial assets recognised at reporting date.

In respect of trade and other receivables, the Group is not exposed to any significant credit risk exposure to any single counterparty or any Group of counterparties having similar

characteristics. Credit risk on receivables is limited as the nature of the business is cash and carry except for related parties and other large number of individual customers in various

geographical areas. The Group has very limited history of customer default, and considers the credit quality of trade receivables that are not past due or impaired to be good.

Therefore, the Group does not expect any material risk on account of non performance by any of the Group’s counterparties.

The credit risk for cash and cash equivalents, bank deposits, security deposits and loans is considered negligible, since the counterparties are reputable organisations with high quality

external credit ratings.

37.1 During the year ended March 31, 2017, rental expense from operating leases were generally recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant

lease. The disclosures pertaining to non cancellable leases for previous year are given below. The below amount does not include non cancellable leases for which

short term lease exemption has been availed by the company under Ind AS 116.

Particulars

Minimum lease payments

The Company has entered into operating lease arrangements for certain facilities and office premises. The leases are non-cancellable and are for a period of 0 to

180 months and are renewable based on mutual agreement of the parties. The lease agreements provide for an increase in the lease payments every 1 to 3 years.

The total of future minimum lease payments in respect of premises taken on lease under non-cancellable operating leases are as follows:

(i) The Group has applied a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases with reasonably similar characteristics

(ii) The Group has treated the leases with remaining lease term of less than 12 months as if they were “short term leases”. Expense relating to such short term

leases recognised in Profit & Loss account amounts to INR 285.36 millions (December 31, 2019: INR 338.32 millions, March 31, 2020: 497.01 millions, March

31, 2019: INR 559.61 millions and March 31, 2018: INR 567.02 millions).

(iii) The Group has not applied the requirements of Ind AS 116 for leases of low value assets.

(iv) The Group has used hindsight, in determining the lease term if the contract contains options to extend or terminate the lease.

On transition to Ind AS 116, the Company recognised right-of-use assets amounting to INR 7,271.35 millions, lease liabilities amounting to INR 6,649.39

millions and INR 587.67 millions (debit) in retained earnings (net of taxes) as at April 1, 2017. The Company has discounted lease payments using the applicable

incremental borrowing rate as at April 1, 2017, which is 11.85% for measuring the lease liability.

Effective April 01, 2019, the Group adopted Ind AS 116 - "Leases", which sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of

leases and requires Leases to account for leases in a manner similar to accounting for finance leases under erstwhile Ind AS 17. The Group adopted Ind AS 116

using the modified retrospective approach. Accordingly the comparative figures for each of the years presented in these restated consolidated financial

information have been adjusted in accordance with the policy mentioned in Note 2.2.(vii) of Notes to restated consolidated financial information. The cumulative

adjustment on application of this Standard has been adjusted to retained earnings as at April 01, 2017. In adopting Ind AS 116, the Group has applied the below

practical expedients:

Particulars

Pursuant to the share subscription cum shareholders agreement dated April 24, 2017 entered into between the Company, the shareholders of Enovate Lifestyles

Private Limited and Enovate Lifestyles Private Limited, during the year ended March 31, 2018, the Company acquired 66,240 equity shares of face value INR 10

each for a consideration of INR 45.50 millions. By virtue of controls that the parent company is able to exercise on Enovate Lifestyles Private Limited, the same is

consolidated in these financial information in accordance with Ind AS 110 from the date of obtaining control, i.e. April 28, 2017. The principal activity of the

Company is E-Commerce based jewellery manufacturing and sale. The primary reason for business combination was synergies of combined business operations.

unable to perform physical verification of inventory as at December 31, 2019, March 31, 2020 or

Kalyan Jewellers India Limited

Notes forming part of the Special Purpose Restated Standalone Financial Information

Information do not reflect the effects of events that occurred subsequent to the respective dates of board

meeting on the audited Special Purpose Interim Standalone Financial Statements / audited Standalone

financial statements mentioned above.

The Restated Standalone Financial Information:

errors and regrouping/reclassifications retrospectively in the financial years ended March 31, 2020,

2019 and 2018 to reflect the same accounting treatment as per the accounting policy and

grouping/classifications followed as at and for the nine months period ended December 31, 2020.

b) do not require any adjustment for modification as there is no modification in the underlying audit

reports.

2.2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(i) Statement of Compliance

These restated standalone financial information of the Company have been prepared in accordance with

Indian Accounting Standard (Ind AS) under the historical cost convention on the accrual basis except for

certain financial instruments which are measured at fair values, the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013

('the Act') (to the extent notified). The Ind AS are prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with Rule 3

of the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and relevant amendment rules issued thereafter.

(ii) Use of estimates and judgement

The preparation of restated standalone financial information in conformity with Ind AS requires management

to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the

reported amount of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses and disclosure of contingent liabilities. Such

estimates and assumptions are based on management’s evaluation of relevant facts and circumstances as on

the date of restated standalone financial information. The actual outcome may diverge from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting

estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period,

or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Useful lives of property, plant and equipment:

The Company reviews the useful life of property, plant and equipment at the end of each reporting period.

This re-assessment may result in change in depreciation expense in future periods.

Fair value of financial assets and liabilities and investments:

The Company measures certain financial assets and liabilities on fair value basis at each balance sheet date

or at the time they are assessed for impairment. Fair value measurement that are based on significant

unobservable inputs (Level 3) requires estimates of operating margin, discount rate, future growth rate,

terminal values, etc. based on management’s best estimate about future developments.

(iii) Functional and presentation currency

Items included in the restated standalone financial information of the Company are measured using the

currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates (i.e. the “functional

currency”). The restated standalone financial information are presented in Indian Rupee, the national

currency of India, which is the functional currency of the Company.

(iv) Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognised upon transfer of control of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that

reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services.

a) Sale of goods: Revenue from the sale of products is recognised at the point in time when control is

transferred to the customer.

Revenue is measured based on the transaction price, which is the consideration, net of customer

incentives, discounts, variable considerations, payments made to customers, other similar charges,

as specified in the contract with the customer. Additionally, revenue excludes taxes collected from

customers, which are subsequently remitted to governmental authorities.

b) Interest income: Interest income from a financial asset is recognised when it is probable that the

economic benefits will flow to the Company and the amount of income can be measured reliably.

Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the

effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash

receipts through the expected life of the financial asset of that asset’s net carrying amount on initial

recognition.

(v) Leases

The Company’s lease asset classes consist of leases for buildings. The Company, at the inception of a

contract, assesses whether the contract is a lease or not lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract

conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a time in exchange for a consideration. This

policy has been applied to contracts existing and entered into on or after April 1, 2019.

The Company recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. The right-

of-use asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for

any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an

estimate of costs to dismantle and remove the underlying asset or to restore the underlying asset or the site

on which it is located, less any lease incentives received.The right-of-use asset is subsequently depreciated

using the straight-line method from the commencement date to the end of the lease term.

The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the

commencement date, discounted using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. It is remeasured when

there is a change in future lease payments arising from a change in an index or rate, if there is a change in the

Company’s estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee, or if the

Company changes its assessment of whether it will exercise a purchase, extension or termination option.

When the lease liability is remeasured in this way, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount

of the right-of-use asset, or is recorded in profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has

been reduced to zero.

The Company has elected not to recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that

have a lease term of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets. The Company recognises the lease

payments associated with these leases as an expense over the lease term.

(vi) Foreign currencies

Transactions in currencies other than the entity’s functional currency (foreign currencies) are recognized at

the rates of exchange prevailing at the date of the transaction. At the end of each reporting period, monetary

items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Non-monetary

items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.

Exchange differences on monetary items are recognised in the statement of profit and loss in the period in

which they arise except for exchange differences on transactions designated as fair value hedge, if any.

Notes forming part of the Special Purpose Restated Standalone Financial Information

(vii) Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which

are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale are added

to the cost of those assets, until such time the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.

All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

(viii) Employee benefits

The Company participates in various employee benefit plans. Post-employment benefits are classified as

either defined contribution plans or defined benefit plans. Under a defined contribution plan, the Company’s

only obligation is to pay a fixed amount with no obligation to pay further contributions if the fund does not

hold sufficient assets to pay all employee benefits. The related actuarial and investment risks fall on the

employee. The expenditure for defined contribution plans is recognized as expense during the period when

the employee provides service. Under a defined benefit plan, it is the Company’s obligation to provide agreed

benefits to the employees. The related actuarial risks fall on the Company. The present value of the defined

benefit obligations is calculated using the projected unit credit method.

Short-term employee benefits

All short-term employee benefits such as salaries, wages, bonus, and other benefits which fall within 12

months of the period in which the employee renders related services which entitles them to avail such benefits

and non-accumulating compensated absences are recognised on an undiscounted basis and charged to the

statement of profit and loss.

A liability is recognised for benefits accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries in the period the

related service is rendered at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in exchange for

that service.

Defined contribution plan

The Company's contribution to provident fund and employee state insurance scheme are considered as

defined contribution plans and are charged as an expense based on the amount of contribution required to be

made and when services are rendered by the employees.

Defined benefit plan

In accordance with the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972, the Company provides for a lump sum payment to

eligible employees, at retirement or termination of employment based on the last drawn salary and years of

employment with the Company. The gratuity fund is unfunded. The Company’s obligation in respect of the

gratuity plan, which is a defined benefit plan, is provided for based on actuarial valuation using the projected

unit credit method. Actuarial gains or losses are recognized in other comprehensive income. Further, the

profit or loss does not include an expected return on plan assets. Instead net interest recognized in profit or

loss is calculated by applying the discount rate used to measure the defined benefit obligation to the net

defined benefit liability or asset. The actual return on the plan assets above or below the discount rate is

recognized as part of re-measurement of net defined liability or asset through other comprehensive income.

Remeasurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses is reflected immediately in the balance sheet with

charge or credit recognised in other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur. Remeasurement

recognised in other comprehensive income is reflected in retained earnings and is not reclassified to the

statement of profit and loss.

(ix) Taxation

Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

a) Current tax: Current tax is the amount of tax payable on the taxable income for the year as

determined in accordance with the applicable tax rates and the provisions of the Income Tax Act,

1961 and other applicable tax laws.

b) Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) paid in accordance with the tax laws, which gives future economic

benefits in the form of adjustment to future income tax liability, is considered as an asset if there is

convincing evidence that the Company will pay normal income tax. Accordingly, MAT is

recognised as an asset in the Balance Sheet when it is highly probable that future economic benefit

associated with it will flow to the Company.

c) Deferred tax: Deferred tax is recognized using the balance sheet approach. Deferred tax assets and

liabilities are recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and

liabilities in the restated standalone financial information and the corresponding tax bases used in

the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable

temporary differences.

Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent

that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary

differences can be utilised.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and

reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to

allow all or part of the asset to be utilised.

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the

period in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that

have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would

follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover

or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

(x) Property, Plant and Equipment

Land and buildings held for use in the production or supply of goods or services, or for administrative

purposes, are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Freehold land

is not depreciated.

Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if

any. The cost of property, plant and equipment comprises its purchase price/ acquisition cost, net of any trade

discounts and rebates, any import duties and other taxes (other than those subsequently recoverable from the

tax authorities), any directly attributable expenditure on making the asset ready for its intended use, other

incidental expenses and interest on borrowings attributable to acquisition of qualifying property, plant and

equipment up to the date the asset is ready for its intended use. Machinery spares which can be used only in

connection with an item of Property, plant and equipment and whose use is expected to be irregular are

capitalised and depreciated over the useful life of the principal item of the relevant assets. Subsequent

expenditure on property, plant and equipment after its purchase / completion is capitalised only if such

expenditure results in an increase in the future benefits from such asset beyond its previously assessed

standard of performance.

312

Kalyan Jewellers India Limited

Notes forming part of the Special Purpose Restated Standalone Financial Information

Depreciation on Property, plant and equipment (other than freehold land) has been provided on the straight-

line method as per the useful life prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 except in respect of

Aeroplanes/Helicopters (30 years with an estimated residual value of 5%), in whose case the life of the assets

has been assessed as under based on technical advice, taking into account the nature of the asset, the estimated

usage of the asset, the operating conditions of the asset, past history of replacement, anticipated technological

changes, manufacturers warranties and maintenance support, etc.:

The estimated useful life of the tangible assets and the useful life are reviewed at the end of the each financial

year and the depreciation period is revised to reflect the changed pattern, if any.

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits

are expected to arise from continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement

of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and

the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

(xi) Investment Property

Investment properties are properties held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation (including property

under construction for such purposes). Investment properties arc measured initially at cost, including

transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are measured in accordance with

Ind AS 16's requirements for cost model.

An investment property is derecognised upon disposal or when the investment property is permanently

withdrawn from use and no future economic benefits are expected from the disposal. Any gain or loss arising

on derecognition of the property (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the

carrying amount of the asset) is included in profit or loss in the period in which the property is derecognised.

(xii) Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment. Intangible assets are

amortised over their respective estimated useful lives on a straight line basis, from the date that they are

available for use. The estimated useful life of an identifiable intangible asset is based on a number of factors

including the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition and other economic factors (such as the stability

of the industry and known technological advances) and the level of maintenance expenditures required to

obtain the expected future cash flows from the asset.

Estimated useful lives of the intangible assets is 5 years.

The estimated useful life of the intangible assets and the amortisation period are reviewed at the end of the

each financial year and the amortisation period is revised to reflect the changed pattern, if any.

(xiii) Impairment of tangible and intangible assets

At the end of each reporting period, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible

assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any

such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the

impairment loss (if any).

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. In assessing value in

use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that

reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which

the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.

If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of

the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

313

Kalyan Jewellers India Limited

Notes forming part of the Special Purpose Restated Standalone Financial Information

When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised

estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying

amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years.

A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

(xiv) Inventories

Inventories [other than quantities of gold for which the price is yet to be determined with the suppliers

(Unfixed gold)] are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. In respect of gold, cost is determined

on first-in-first-out basis, for silver cost is determined on annual weighted average basis and in respect of

studded jewellery is determined on specific identification basis.

Unfixed gold is valued at the gold prices prevailing on the period closing date.

Cost comprises all costs of purchase including duties and taxes (other than those subsequently recoverable

by the Company), freight inwards and other expenditure directly attributable to acquisition. Work-in-progress

and finished goods include appropriate proportion of overheads and, where applicable, excise duty.

Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price for inventories less all estimated costs of

completion and costs necessary to make the sale.

(xv) Provisions and contingencies

Provisions: A provision is recognised when the Company has a present obligation as a result of past events

and it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, in respect of which a

reliable estimate can be made.

The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present

obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the

obligation. When a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its

carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows (when the effect of time value of money is material).

Contingent liabilities: Contingent liabilities are not recognised but are disclosed in notes to accounts.

(xvi) Investment in subsidiaries

Investments representing investments in subsidiaries are measured at cost.

(xvii) Financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual

provisions of the instruments.

Financial assets and liabilities are initially recognised at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly

attributable to financial assets and liabilities [other than financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value

through profit and loss (FVTPL)] are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or

liabilities, as appropriate on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to acquisition of

financial assets or liabilities measured at FVTPL are recognised immediately in the statement of profit and

loss.

a) Non-derivative Financial assets: All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are

recognised and derecognised on a trade date basis. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or

sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the time frame established by regulation

or convention in the marketplace.

314

Kalyan Jewellers India Limited

Notes forming part of the Special Purpose Restated Standalone Financial Information

All recognised financial assets are subsequently measured in their entirety at either amortised cost

or fair value, depending on the classification of the financial assets.

Financial assets at amortised cost

A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if both of the following conditions are met:

a) the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in

order to collect contractual cash flows and

b) the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely

payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.

Effective interest method:

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a debt instrument and

of allocating interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is that which exactly

discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the debt instrument, or, where

appropriate, a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.

Income is recognised on an effective interest basis for debt instruments other than those financial

assets. Interest income is recognised in profit or loss and is included in the “Other income” line item.

b) Derecognition of financial assets: A financial asset is derecognised only when the Company

- has transferred the rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset or

- retains the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of the financial asset, but assumes a

contractual obligation to pay the cash flows to one or more recipients.

When the entity has transferred an asset, the Company evaluates whether it has transferred

substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset. In such cases, the financial

asset is derecognised. Were the entity has not transferred substantially all risks and rewards of

ownership of the financial asset, the financial asset is not derecognised.

Where the entity has neither transferred a financial asset nor retains substantially all risks and

rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the financial asset is derecognised if the Company has

not retained control of the financial asset. When the Company retains control of the financial asset,

the asset is continued to be recognised to the extent of continuing involvement in the financial asset.

c) Foreign exchange gains and losses: The fair value of financial assets denominated in a foreign

currency is determined in that foreign currency and translated at the spot rate at the end of each

reporting period. For foreign currency denominated financial assets measured at amortised cost and

FVTPL, the exchange differences are recognised in statement of profit and loss.

d) Financial liabilities: All financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the

effective interest method or at FVTPL.

Financial liabilities at FVTPL

Financial liabilities at FVTPL are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on

remeasurement recognised in statement of profit and loss. The net gain or loss recognised in

statement of profit and loss incorporates any interest paid on the financial liability and is included

in the ‘Other income/Other expenses’ line item.

315

Kalyan Jewellers India Limited

Notes forming part of the Special Purpose Restated Standalone Financial Information

Financial liabilities subsequently measured at amortised cost

Financial liabilities that are not held-for-trading and are not designated as at FVTPL are measured

at amortised cost at the end of subsequent accounting periods. The carrying amounts of financial

liabilities that are subsequently measured at amortised cost are determined based on the effective

interest method.

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability

and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that

exactly discounts estimated future cash payments through the expected life of the financial liability,

or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.

Foreign exchange gains and losses

For financial liabilities that are denominated in a foreign currency and are measured at amortised

cost at the end of each reporting period, the foreign exchange gains and losses are determined based

on the amortised cost of the instruments and are recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

The fair value of financial liabilities denominated in a foreign currency is determined in that foreign

currency and translated at the spot rate at the end of the reporting period. For financial liabilities that

are measured as at FVTPL, the foreign exchange component forms part of the fair value gains or

losses and is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

The Company derecognises financial liabilities when, and only when, the Company’s obligations

are discharged, cancelled or have expired.

An exchange between with a lender of debt instruments with substantially different terms is

accounted for as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the recognition of a new

financial liability.

(xviii) Hedge accounting

The Company designates certain hedging instruments as fair value hedges. At the inception of the hedge

relationship, the entity documents the relationship between the hedging instrument and the hedged item, along

with its risk management objectives and its strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. Furthermore,

at the inception of the hedge and on an ongoing basis, the Company documents whether the hedging

instrument is highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values of the hedged item attributable to the hedged

risk.

Fair value hedges

Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value at the date the derivative contracts are entered into and are

subsequently remeasured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is

recognised in statement of profit and loss immediately unless the derivative is designated and effective as a

hedging instrument, in which event the timing of the recognition in profit or loss depends on the nature of

the hedging relationship and the nature of the hedged item.

Hedge accounting is discontinued when the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated, or exercised,

or when it no longer qualifies for hedge accounting. The fair value adjustment to the carrying amount of the

hedged item arising from the hedged risk is amortised to profit or loss from that date.

Cash flow hedges

Derivative financial instruments to manage risks associated with gold price fluctuations relating to certain

highly probable forecasted transactions, foreign currency fluctuations relating to certain firm commitments

fall under the category of cash flow hedges. The Company has designated derivative financial instruments

taken for gold price fluctuations as cash flow hedges relating to highly probable forecasted transactions.

316

Kalyan Jewellers India Limited

Notes forming part of the Special Purpose Restated Standalone Financial Information

Hedging instruments are initially measured at fair value, and are re-measured at subsequent reporting dates.

Changes in the fair value of these derivatives that are designated and effective as hedges of future cash flows

are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated under the heading hedging reserve and the

ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the statement of profit and loss. For forecasted transactions,

any cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument recognized in hedging reserve is retained until the

forecast transaction occurs upon which it is recognized in the statement of profit and loss.

If a hedged transaction is no longer expected to occur, the net cumulative gain or loss accumulated in hedging

reserve is recognized immediately to the statement of profit and loss. The Company has designated derivative

financial instruments taken for gold price fluctuations as cash flow hedges relating to highly probable

forecasted transactions under the previous GAAP.

(xix) Segment reporting

Operating segments are reported in the manner consistent with the internal reporting to the chief operating

decision maker (CODM). The Company is reported at an overall level, and hence there are no separate

reportable segments as per Ind AS 108.

(xx) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash comprises cash on hand and demand deposits with banks. Cash equivalents are short-term balances

(with an original maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition) and highly liquid investments

that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to insignificant risk of changes

in value. For the purposes of the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, in

banks and demand deposits with banks, net of outstanding bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand,

book overdraft and are considered part of the Company’s cash management system.

(xxi) Earnings per share (EPS)

Basic earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding

during the period.

Diluted EPS is computed by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary equity holders by the weighted

average number of equity shares considered for deriving basic EPS and also weighted average number of

equity shares that could have been issued upon conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares. Dilutive

potential equity shares are deemed converted as of the beginning of the period, unless issued at a later date.

Dilutive potential equity shares are determined independently for each period presented. The number of

equity shares and potentially dilutive equity shares are adjusted for bonus shares, as appropriate

(xxii) Operating Cycle

Based on the nature of products / activities of the Company and the normal time between acquisition of assets

and their realisation in cash or cash equivalents, the Company has determined its operating cycle as 12 months

for the purpose of classification of its assets and liabilities as current and non-current.

(xxiii) Recent IND AS and other statutory/ legal announcements

The Code on Social Security,2020 (‘Code’) relating to employee benefits during employment and post-

employment benefits received Presidential assent in September 2020. The Code has been published in the

Gazette of India. However, the date on which the Code will come into effect has not been notified. The

Company will assess the impact of the Code when it comes into effect and will record any related impact in

the period the Code becomes effective.

Ministry of Corporate Affairs ("MCA") notifies new standard or amendments to the existing standards. There

is no such notification which would have been applicable from 01 January 2021.

The Group’s investment properties consist only of free hold land and therefore no depreciation is chargeable.

The Group's investment properties consist of seven properties in the nature of free hold land in India. The fair value of these properties are based on valuations performed by

independent valuers for the purposes of bank financing at the time availing/renewing such financing facility. The fair value hierarchy is at level 2, which is derived using the

market comparable approach based on recent market prices without any significant adjustments being made to the market observable data.(refer note 35.2 for note on fair value

The key actuarial assumptions to which the defined benefit plans are particularly sensitive to are discount rate and full salary escalation rate. The sensitivity analysis below, have been

determined based on reasonably possible changes of the assumptions occurring at end of the reporting period , while holding all other assumptions constant. The result of Sensitivity

analysis is given below:

The sensitivity analysis presented above may not be representative of the actual change in the defined benefit obligation as it is unlikely that the change in assumptions would occur in

isolation of one another as some of the assumptions may be correlated.

33.1 Capital management

The Company's capital management objectives are:

- to ensure the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern

- to create value for shareholders by facilitating the meeting of long term and short term goals of the Company.

The Company determines the amount of capital required on the basis of annual business plan coupled with long term and short term strategic expansion plans. The funding needs are met through

equity, cash generated from operations, long term and short term bank borrowings.

The Company monitors the capital structure on the basis of net debt to equity ratio and maturity profile of the overall debt portfolio of the Company. Net debt includes interest bearing borrowings

less cash and cash equivalents and other bank balances (including non-current earmarked balances).

The table below summarises the capital, net debt and net debt to equity ratio (Gearing ratio) of the Company

This section gives an overview of the significance of financial instruments for the Company and provides additional information on balance sheet items that contain financial instruments. The details

Note 33 - Financial instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values:

B. Fair value hierarchy

33.3 - Financial risk management objective

Risk

Market risk - prices

Market risk - foreign exchange

Market risk - interest rate

Credit risk

Liquidity risk

Cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, derivative financial

instruments and other financial assets

The risk management process aims to:

- improve financial risk awareness and risk transparency

- identify, control and monitor key risks

- identify risk accumulations

- provide management with reliable information on the Company’s risk situation

- improve financial returns

This note explains the sources of risk which the entity is exposed to and how the entity manages the risk and the related impact in the financial statements:

The Company's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks. The Company's primary focus is to foresee the unpredictability of such risks and seek to minimize potential adverse effects on its

financial performance.

The Company has a robust risk management process and framework in place. This process is coordinated by the Board, which meets regularly to review risks as well as the progress against the

planned actions. The Board seeks to identify, evaluate business risks and challenges across the Company through such framework. These risks include market risks, credit risk and liquidity risk.

Exposure arising from

Risk management

Used as a hedging instrument for gold inventory or through

Metal gold loan facilities.

Periodic review by management

Mix of borrowings taken at fixed and floating rates

Bank deposits, diversification of asset base, credit limits

and collateral.

The Company uses the following hierarchy for determining and/or disclosing the fair value of financial instruments by valuation techniques. The three levels are defined based on the observability of

significant inputs to the measurement, as follows:

Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices).

Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

Quantitative disclosures fair value measurement hierarchy

The derivative instruments in designated hedge accounting relationships is measured at fair value at level 1, with valuation technique being use of market available inputs such as gold prices and

foreign exchange rates.

i) Fair values of the Company’s interest-bearing borrowings are determined by using EIR method using discount rate that reflects the issuer’s borrowing rate as at the end of the reporting period. The

own non- performance risk as at March 31, 2020 was assessed to be insignificant..

The management assessed that fair values of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, other financial assets, trade payables and other financial liabilities recorded at amortised cost is considered

to be a reasonable approximation of fair value.

The line items in the Balance Sheet that include the above forward contracts are other financial assets/(liabilities).

The Company is exposed to fluctuations in gold price (including fluctuations in foreign currency) arising on purchase/ sale of gold. The Company's business objective includes safe-guarding its

earnings against adverse price movements of gold as well as foreign exchange risks.

The Company has adopted a structured risk management process to hedge all these risks within an acceptable risk limit and an approved hedge accounting framework which allows for fair value

hedges/cash flow hedges, as designated at the inception of the hedge. The forward contracts which are not designated as above are marked to market at each balance sheet date and corresponding

gain/ loss is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss. The risk management strategy against gold price fluctuation also includes procuring gold on loan basis, with a flexibility to fix price of

gold at any time during the tenor of the loan. . The Company does not enter into or trade financial instruments including derivative financial instruments, for speculative purposes.

Interest rate sensitivity analysis:

The sensitivity analyses below have been determined based on the exposure to interest rates for non derivative instruments at the reporting date. For floating rate borrowings, the analysis is prepared

assuming the amount of liability outstanding at the reporting date was outstanding for the whole year.

The impact on the Company's profit if interest rates had been 50 basis points higher/lower and all other variables were held constant:

The Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from foreign currency transactions with subsidiaries, primarily with respect to Arab Emirates Dirhams (AED). Foreign exchange risk arises

from recognised assets and liabilities denominated in a currency that is not the Company’s functional currency. Exposures to foreign currency balances are periodically reviewed to ensure that the

results from fluctuating currency exchange rates are appropriately managed.

Foreign currency sensitivity analysis

The sensitivity analysis includes only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items and adjusts their translation at the period end for a 10% change in foreign currency rates. A positive

number below table an increase in profit where the INR strengthens 10% against the relevant currency. For a 10% weakening of the INR against the relevant currency, there would be an equal and

opposite impact on profit and equity. The following table details the Company's sensitivity to a 10% increase and decrease in the INR against the relevant foreign currencies.

(i) Liabilities:

The Company’s policy is to minimise interest rate cash flow risk exposures on long-term financing. As at December 31, 2020, the Company is exposed to changes in market interest rates through

bank borrowings at variable interest rates. Below is the overall exposure of the Company to interest rate risk:

The Company requires funds both for short-term operational needs as well as for long-term expansion programmes. The Company remains committed to maintaining a healthy liquidity ratio,

deleveraging and strengthening the balance sheet. The Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate support of facilities from its holding company, and by continuously monitoring

forecast and actual cash flows and by matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.

The Company’s treasury department is responsible for liquidity, funding as well as settlement management. In addition, processes and policies related to such risks are overseen by senior

management.

The Company's financial liability is represented significantly by long term and short term borrowings from banks and trade payables. The maturity profile of the Company’s short term and long term

borrowings and trade payables based on the remaining period from the date of balance sheet to the contractual maturity date is given in the table below. The figures reflect the contractual

undiscounted cash obligation of the Company.

(ii) Assets:

The Company’s financial assets are carried at amortised cost and are at fixed rate only. They are, therefore, not subject to interest rate risk since neither the carrying amount nor the future cash flows

will fluctuate because of a change in market interest rates.

Credit risk is the risk that a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument will fail to perform or pay amounts due to the Company causing financial loss. It arises from cash and cash equivalents,

deposits with banks and financial institutions, security deposits, loans given and principally from credit exposures to customers relating to outstanding receivables. The Company’s maximum

exposure to credit risk is limited to the carrying amount of financial assets recognised at reporting date.

In respect of trade and other receivables, the Company is not exposed to any significant credit risk exposure to any single counterparty or any company of counterparties having similar

characteristics. Credit risk on receivables is limited as the nature of the business is cash and carry except for related parties and other large number of individual customers in various geographical

areas. The Company has very limited history of customer default, and considers the credit quality of trade receivables that are not past due or impaired to be good.

Therefore, the Company does not expect any material risk on account of non performance by any of the Company’s counterparties.

The credit risk for cash and cash equivalents, bank deposits, security deposits and loans is considered negligible, since the counterparties are reputable organisations with high quality external credit

ratings.
