Mainly 3 brands

Revenue from sales of products under brand “W” , “Aurelia” & “Wishfulgrew” is growing at a CAGR of 48.67 %, 70.82 % & 66.66 % respectively during FY13 to FY17 . Moreover, in FY17 the revenue from “W” , “Aurelia” & “Wishfulgrew” accounted for 61.23% , 30.35 % & 8.41% respectively.
Risks:
Slowdown in demand for TCNS’ products due to change in customer preferences and lower
brand appeal are key risks. Competition from other brands, including from private labels
retailed by channels such as large format stores and e-tailers are also risks. FDisclosure: Not invested
looking for views from everyone
It is a good play on branded ethnic wear of ladies, good growth in past and looking for better growth ahead
