Titan Company share price marked the largest single-day fall in over 6 years. The fall came after the maker of Titan watches and Tanishq jewellery said that first quarter of the current fiscal saw a tough macro-economic environment with consumption taking a hit. The jewellery-to-watch maker mentioned that very high gold prices particularly in June impacted growth in the jewellery industry.
Shareholders of Titan have almost lost over Rs 15,000 crore in a trade with its market capitalisation falling to Rs 96,058 crore.
Titan Company share price has gained 21.31% since the beginning of this year. In contrast, the 30-share Sensex rose 7.5 % since the beginning of this year and 7.38% during the last one year.
Ace investor Rakesh Jhunjhunwala holds around 5.7% stake in the firm at the end of March quarter. Moreover, Rekha Jhunjhunwala owned 1.3% shares of Titan Company during the period.
The firm said revenue from jewellery grew by a muted 13% in the first quarter of 2019 as sharp surge in gold prices dented consumer demand significantly in the month of June.
Titan Company reported a 14.4% growth in its consolidated net profit for the quarter ended March 31. Total revenue grew 19.87% at Rs 4,945 crore compared to Rs 4,125 crore on YoY basis.
