Management is targeting to double revenue (11%+ CAGR) over FY24-30 through sustained high-single-digit LTL growth and an accelerated rollout of 250+ net store additions annually (on a base of ~3,200+ stores).
We fine-tune our FY26-27E forecasts with a modest change in revenue and Ebitda. We build in a CAGR of 8%/11%/24% for revenue/Ebitda/PAT over FY25-28E.
We ascribe a 12x Sep'27E EV/Ebitda multiple to Lifestyle brands and a ~1.2x EV/Sales multiple to Emerging brands.
We reiterate a Neutral stance with a target price of Rs 150 (implies ~25x Sep'27 pre-INDAS 116 EV/Ebitda).
