PC Jeweller vs Senco Gold vs Kalyan Jewellers: Which stock to buy ahead of Q1 results 2025?
Jewellery stocks: The jewellery sector is witnessing momemtum as investors look forward to the Q1 FY26 results of listed companies such as PC Jeweller, Senco Gold, and Kalyan Jewellers. Traditionally, this quarter benefits from festive buying during Akshaya Tritiya and the busy wedding season — a pattern that has held true this year as well. Despite some volatility in gold prices, all three firms have noted robust demand in their April to June business updates, driven by high-ticket purchases and strong customer turnout. Senco Gold said that festivals such as Poila Boishakh and Baisakhi led to increased footfall at its stores. Kalyan Jewellers experienced strong customer engagement across both India and the Middle East. PC Jeweller, with its primary focus on the domestic market, witnessed a significant rise in demand fueled by wedding and festive buying. According to Gaurav Goel, Founder & Director at Fynocrat Technologies, all three companies have had a strong quarter, but for a risk-averse investor, Senco Gold stands out as the more balanced and dependable choice. It has shown steady growth, improved margins, and continued to build its brand while being transparent in its business updates. Senco Gold posted 28 percent growth in total revenue, including 24 percent growth in retail revenue and a 19 percent rise in same-store sales. It opened nine new jewellery stores and continued building its portfolio of sub-brands like Sennes and Everlite. The company also said that diamond jewellery remained in strong demand and that gold exchange made up 40 percent of its overall sales. Kalyan Jewellers reported a 31 percent growth in overall revenue and highlighted that its digital-first platform, Candere, grew by 67 percent compared to last year. The company opened 19 new showrooms during the quarter and confirmed plans to add 170 more across India and international markets this year PC Jeweller reported the highest revenue growth among the three, at around 80 percent compared to the same period last year. The company said this growth was driven by strong wedding and festive demand. It also reported that it has further reduced its outstanding debt and remains on track to become debt-free by the end of FY26. Ganesh Dongre, Senior Manager of Technical Research at Anand Rathi, said on all three jewellery stocks - PC Jeweller has recently broken out above the ₹ 12 level, achieving a new 52-week high at ₹ 19 on the weekly chart. The formation of a bullish engulfing pattern further confirms strong bullish momentum and the possibility of continued rally. However, the stock is currently in an overbought condition, and a stiff resistance is evident around the ₹ 20–22 zone. A decisive breakout above this resistance would be necessary for the next leg of the rally. For now, support is seen around ₹ 13–14. Traders are advised to avoid fresh positions at current levels and instead look for buying opportunities near the support zone. A dip-buying strategy may be considered with a stop-loss at ₹ 12 and an upside target of ₹ 22. Senco Gold has formed a bullish engulfing pattern on the weekly chart, a classic bullish signal that indicates potential for further upside momentum. The stock also appears to be rebounding from key Fibonacci retracement levels, supporting the likelihood of a continued upward trajectory. The expected upside range is projected between ₹ 470 and ₹ 510 in the coming months. Investors holding the stock may consider maintaining their positions, with a stop-loss placed at ₹ 300, while targeting the ₹ 420 mark in the medium term. Kalyan Jewellers has witnessed a significant trendline breakout on the monthly chart, particularly above the ₹ 570 mark, indicating the potential for a strong upward move. This breakout is visible on both the weekly and monthly timeframes, suggesting robust bullish sentiment. In the short term, technical indicators such as the RSI are showing strength, further supporting the bullish bias. Considering the overall structure, traders may adopt a "buy on dips" strategy, especially around the ₹ 550–570 zone, which now acts as a crucial support area and could offer an attractive entry point for medium to long-term gains. So, Investor can hold and buy this stock with stop loss of 530 for the target price of 650. Disclaimer: This story is for educational purposes only.

TCS Share Price: Should You Buy The IT Stock Before Q1 Earnings And Dividend?
Last Updated: TCS share price will remain in focus during the Thursday session; Here's how to trade in the IT stock before the Q1FY26 results and dividend TCS Share Price Today: The board of directors of Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) consider and approve Q1 results 2025 on 10 July 2025. The IT giants' board members will also consider the proposal for the first interim dividend for its shareholders, which will be payable during the financial year 2025-26. So, the TCS share price will remain in focus during the Thursday session. The shares of the IT major were trading with minor gains and losses in the morning. At 11.30 am, the stock was up 0.02 percent to hover around Rs 3,384 apiece. Indian IT major Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) is likely to deliver a modest performance in its Q1 FY26 results, amid geopolitical uncertainties and tariff-related concerns, according to market experts. Analysts believe that revenue growth will likely be supported by the BFSI and energy sectors, while verticals like healthcare may underperform due to cautious client spending. TCS shares have remained range-bound, trading between Rs 3,150 and Rs 3,600 apiece. Experts say a decisive breakout above or below this range will determine the next directional move for the stock. Muted Outlook for IT Sector? Brokerages expect the IT sector to see a soft earnings season, with global tensions and uncertainty weighing on corporate spending. 'If the final U.S. tariffs are passed on to consumers, U.S. inflation may rise, creating further uncertainty for global companies and likely dragging IT growth," said Girish Pai, analyst at BOBCAPS. Equirus Capital estimates TCS's US revenue to decline 0.4 percent sequentially in constant currency (CC) terms. The firm attributes the tepid performance to the expected ramp-down in the BSNL deal and a slowdown in international markets. However, it expects a slight improvement in EBIT margins due to lower operating costs from soft demand. It also foresees a notable dip in total contract value (TCV) on a quarter-on-quarter basis due to seasonal weakness. ICICI Securities projects a 3.4 percent decline in CC revenue for TCS, primarily led by the Rs 300 million quarterly ramp-down of the BSNL contract. This is expected to be partially offset by resilient BFSI-led growth in global markets. Similarly, Axis Securities predicts a 0.3 percent sequential fall in revenue for Q1, again pointing to the BSNL impact. EBIT margins are expected to remain largely flat, with a 60 basis point movement during the quarter. Ashika Institutional Equity Research also anticipates a 0.5 percent sequential decline in TCS's USD revenue due to the BSNL tapering. Technical View Commenting on the stock's technical trend, Ganesh Dongre, Senior Manager – Technical Research at Anand Rathi, said, 'On the daily chart, TCS remains under selling pressure and is currently trading below its 200-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA), which stands at Rs 3,700—a significant resistance level. The stock continues to consolidate between Rs 3,150 and Rs 3,600. A breakout on either side will be key in defining the stock's future trend." Q4FY25 Recap and Dividend History In the previous quarter (Q4FY25), TCS reported a marginal decline in net profit and modest revenue growth, while also declaring a final dividend for FY25. Notably, the company crossed the $30 billion revenue mark, reflecting strong long-term potential supported by a robust order book. As per exchange filings, TCS reported a consolidated profit after tax (PAT) of Rs 12,224 crore in Q4FY25, down 1.7 percent from Rs 12,434 crore in the same quarter last year. Revenue from operations stood at Rs 64,479 crore, marking a 5.3 percent year-on-year increase from Rs 61,237 crore in Q4FY24. view comments First Published: July 10, 2025, 11:26 IST News business » markets TCS Share Price: Should You Buy The IT Stock Before Q1 Earnings And Dividend?
