Export Receivables & ECL Provision

Joint Settlement with Lenders

PC Jeweller executed a Joint Settlement Agreement with a consortium of 14 banks in September 2024. This OTS led to the preferential allotment of 51.71 crore equity shares at ₹29.20 each, totalling ₹1,509.97 crore in debt adjustment. Additionally, interest of ₹42.04 crore was recognized in Q4 FY25.

Capital Infusion Through Warrants

The company raised ₹2,702.11 crore via preferential issue of 48.08 crore Fully Convertible Warrants to promoters and public investors. Conversion completed in stages between September and December 2024, leading to a sharp rise in equity base.

Segment and Store Update

• The company discontinued 3 underperforming stores in Durgapur, Siliguri, and Bhubaneswar during Q4.
• PC Jeweller now operates 49 owned and 3 franchisee stores as of March 31, 2025.

Auditor’s Remarks

With legacy issues progressively addressed and inventory valuations trending positively, PC Jeweller is expected to consolidate its market position in FY26.
