Key Highlights
Trent’s September quarter revenue rose 17.4% YoY to Rs 5,000 crore with net new stores added for brands Zudio and Westside.
The company’s expansion into Gen-Z fashion and store experience upgrades position it well for sustainable long-term growth.

Nuvama flagged risks including external factors like La Niña but believes growth catalysts remain strong in retail and consumer sectors.
Investors are advised to watch these companies for long-term value creation and sectoral tailwinds.
