Lenskart's September quarter results comes days after its tepid listing. The public issue had drawn flak, as the company was valued at nearly $8 billion or Rs 70,000 crore.
Lenskart had priced its IPO between Rs 382 and Rs 402 per share. This implied a price-to-earnings ratio of about 285 times its fiscal year 2025 profit of Rs 297 crore, far above global and domestic peers.
Analysts flagged this steep valuation as excessive. According to Ambit Capital, Lenskart’s India business trades at an implied 55 times financial year 2028 estimated EV/Ebitda, 20–30% higher than consumer peers such as Trent and Nykaa’s beauty and personal care segment. The brokerage called these valuations “unwarranted” given the company’s modest profitability and heavy capital requirements.
