Shoppers Stop Q3 Profit Plunges 22-Fold Amid Festive Weakness, Pollution

  • Shoppers Stop reported a drastic 22-fold decline in Q3 net profit, falling to ₹16.1 crore from ₹352.2 crore year-on-year.
  • Revenue for the quarter saw a modest 2.6% growth to ₹1,415 crore, while EBITDA dropped 11.1% to ₹217.8 crore.
  • Sales remained flat due to festive calendar shifts, uneven discretionary demand, and high pollution levels in North India.
  • Premium brands, contributing 69% of total sales, showed 6% year-on-year like-for-like growth, indicating a successful portfolio shift.
  • The company expanded its retail footprint by opening three department stores, three INTUNE stores, and one HomeStop store, with stable net debt.

Why It Matters: Shoppers Stop's Q3 profit plummeted due to external factors, despite strategic focus on premium brands and expansion.
