The next Rs 25,000 crores has been remarkably achieved in a single year of FY26. This is a reflection of the enduring strength of our brands, the trust of our consumers,” said Ajoy Chawla, managing director of Titan Company.

“Our emerging businesses are growing well whilst strengthening their customer value proposition to build the foundations for sustainable growth. As we step into FY27 with optimism on the back of an exceptional FY26 performance, we are conscious of the macro volatility and fragile geopolitical situations that necessitate all around agility to respond effectively to grow our businesses,” he added.
