According to the brokerage, the company impressed across both growth and profitability metrics. Not only growth has been strong across verticals, this was also supported by margin expansion driven by improving operating efficiency across its beauty, personal care, and fashion segments.
Jefferies noted that performance of Nykaa's own brands continue to have the dream‑run on growth, with Dot & Key Ebitda margins in high‑teens, reflecting their growing relevance in the beauty segment and their contribution to overall profitability.
Nykaa Fashion's (Gross Merchandise Value) rose 31% year-on-year to Rs 1,476 crore and One Nykaa's overall customer base surpassed 52 million.
