On Tuesday, Titan Company achieved a significant milestone, breaking through the ₹3-lakh crore mark in market capitalization, a historic first for the company. Throughout the day’s trading, the stock soared to an all-time high of ₹3,400 before settling at ₹3,394.15 by day’s end, marking a 1.44% increase from the previous day’s closing price.

This surge propelled Titan’s market capitalization to ₹3.01 lakh crore by the close of trading. As a result, Titan shares surged to the 17th position in market capitalization rankings, overtaking Asian Paints in this prestigious slot. This achievement signifies remarkable market confidence and investor interest in Titan’s performance and potential for growth.

In the year-to-date period, shares of the Titan group have experienced a remarkable increase of 32.39 percent, outperforming the benchmark Nifty 50 index, which recorded a comparatively modest rise of 8.7 percent. This robust performance suggests that Titan has shown strong market resilience and investor confidence, potentially because of factors such as robust financial results, strategic initiatives, or favorable industry trends.

Titan achieved its initial milestone of a Rs 1 lakh crore market capitalization on March 28, 2019. Subsequently, the stock underwent an 18-month journey to surpass the next Rs 1 lakh crore market cap, reaching a market capitalization of Rs 2 lakh crore on October 7, 2021. The company’s ascent from Rs 2 lakh crore to Rs 3 lakh crore occurred in over two years.

By surpassing the Rs 3 lakh crore market cap, Titan secured the 17th position among India’s most valuable companies by market capitalization. As a key entity within the Tata Group, it also holds the distinction of being the second-most valuable company within the Tata conglomerate, trailing only behind TCS.

Titan’s remarkable growth in revenue is noteworthy, particularly in a market where sustaining such rapid expansion, especially in discretionary product segments, is challenging because of its nature. Despite operating within a high base and dealing with discretionary products, Titan has consistently showcased substantial revenue growth—a testament to its effective strategies and market resilience.

Analysts foresee a positive trajectory for Titan, especially regarding its studded ratio. I expected the gradual recovery in this aspect to play a crucial role in bolstering the company’s gross margins in the foreseeable future.

In the latest report from Kunal Vora, Head of India Equity Research at BNP Paribas, it’s highlighted that Titan continues to consistently achieve close to its long-term guidance of approximately 20 percent sales compound annual growth rate (CAGR) within its jewelry division. This stands out notably amidst the sluggish growth observed across most consumption categories.

The report emphasizes Titan’s unique positioning to capture market share, owing to its substantial growth potential. Titan is notably featured in Np Paribas’ Affluent India stock list, showing confidence in its prospects. Despite the emergence of lab-made diamonds, the report notes that Titan has experienced no adverse impact on its jewelry sales in India.

However, the target price has been set at ₹3,650, reflecting BNP Paribas’ perspective on Titan’s valuation and potential future growth.
