Good afternoon, Sabiko. [Foreign Speech]

Jannik, you call. You can overview the company, please.

Jenik SoniChief Executive Officer

Okay. Good afternoon, everyone. On behalf of the entire team at Ashapura Group, I extend a very warm welcome to all of you for joining our first ever earnings conference call. It’s a moment of pride and purpose for us to be addressing you today as a public company with a strong vision, clear strategy and growing confidence in our journey. ahead.

So those who do not know our story, I would briefly like to explain our background as it’s our maiden earnings call. So Ashapuri Gold and Diamond Limited was founded in 1997 and incorporated in 2008. We are based out of Ahmedabad, Gujarat. With the rich legacy, a goal has emerged as one of the India’s most trusted names in antique gold jewelry manufacturing. The company serves a wide spectrum of jewellers from metropolitan cities to fastest growing urban centers, Tier 1, Tier 2 and promising Tier 3 cities as well. Anchored by the innovation and strong customer-centric philosophy, Ashapura Group operates with state-of-the-art manufacturing infrastructure with over 25,000 plus unique designs and more than 200 skilled artisans. The company invites the jewelers across the globe to be a part of India’s premier B2B jewelry hub where legacy meets contemporary design and tradition is always in the base of the company.

Now I would like to give you some operational insights and I would like to explain our business model. so basically I would keep it simple in four different parts. Who are we, what we offer, whom do we serve and how do we make money? So the step-by-step process is that we are a manufacturer of antique jewelry. We do not do any kind of trading. We have our in-house department and concept design department.

So first point is when we make a new design and concept and collections, then we manufacture it. After manufacturing it, we’ll do a collection launch. We launch at IJS exhibitions, we do private previews, and we have sales teams who cater to wide range of cities and customers across India. After launching the collection, we take orders from national chains and regional chains across India. Then we do production and dispatch and that’s how our business model and sales cycle are.

Product types are generally the bridal jewelry category which focuses on festive and occasion sales. It includes of mainly antique gold jewelry which has SKUs like choker, bangles, long necklace, short necklace, earrings, etc. We have to again large format retailers, regional jewelry stores across North, South and central part of India. And we always participate in all the big trade shows in India like IJS, GJS and PMIs. So that’s basically the business structure model.

And I would like Mr. Our MD, Mr. Jitendra Soni. to give you some financial performance of last year for year ending 24-25.

Jitendrakumar S SoniJoint Managing Director

Thank you Jenny Suneja. [Foreign Speech] Thank you.

Jenik SoniChief Executive Officer

I would like to add a few more metrics for the last year in the con call. So the metrics I would like to give is the [Foreign Speech]. As a jewelry manufacturing company we will we analyze our data in kg’s so [Foreign Speech] Or hopefully we are planning to expand our production capacity in next two to three months. So you will see the difference.

Currently Ashapuri Gold is present in over 15 to 16 Regional and National Chains and 250 plus big box clients in India. When we add the showroom count of all the clients, it’s about 2000 showrooms in which our jewelries are present across India.

I would like to say we have four different types of jewelry collections which caters to all the different cultural preferences and segments across India. Naming Arjish, Mine, Kavish and Anaya. As you see the increase in profitability margin is lightweight antique jewelry [Foreign Speech] which will be a supply model from our Bangalore setup to all the five states of South. And we have Arjish and mine collection, which focuses on lightweight antique jewelry and it will for North India.

As we see the rising gold prices and the other all the big retail chains, KallKol, they are very much bullish and focusing on lightweight jewelry concepts. And according to them and their figures, we are also very much aligned with their requirements in focusing on upcoming with the lightweight jewelry collection in the upcoming exhibitions. So I’m very much confident we will have a very good amount of sales figure closed.

And I would like to just close by for the last exhibitions. If you have seen in IJS signature, we have closed around 48 crores of sales order and in IJS Srikakulam we close around 21 crore of the orders.

At the closing, I would like to say Tashawood is not just a jewelry company. We are a Timeless Legacy in working every day to convert the tradition and actual demand of the market. into the sales numbers. Thank you once again for joining us.

With that, I will now hand over the call for question and answers to all the present, all of our present in the call. Thank you so much.

Questions and Answers:

Operator

Thank you very much. We will now begin the question and answer session. Anyone who wishes to ask a question may press star and one on their touchtone telephone. If you wish to remove yourself from the question queue, you may press star and two. Participants are requested to use handsets while asking a question. Ladies and gentlemen, we will wait for a moment while the question queue assembles. The first question is from the line of Aditi Roy from Patel Advisors. Please go ahead.

Aditi Roy

Thank you for giving me the opportunity. My question is, can you please provide the insights into your manufacturing capabilities and how the company ensures consistent quality and craftsmanship in every piece?

Jenik Soni

So, Aditi, welcome to our call. I would like to answer your question. So, for the manufacturing capacity, I would like to just give you some basic insights. In Indian retail jewelry space, there is 60% of the jewelry players which are on organized side. And when we see is the organized manufacturing of jewelry in India is only around 11%. And we fall under the organized manufacturing player with all the SOPs, departmentalized system, good set of customized ERP, and over an average 10 years of experience team members we have and the overall 15 years plus experience of board of directors. With all the things in place, we focus on giving the right manufacturing capabilities and right demand what does the market needs.

Aditi Roy

I have one last question. How are you leveraging technology to improve operations in inventory management or customer engagement?

Jenik Soni

We have digital tools for that.

Operator

Thank you. The next question is from the line of Priya Jain, an individual investor. Please go ahead. Miss Priya, your line is unmuted. You can ask your question.

Priya Jain

Hi, Anusuya. So, I have a couple of questions with me. The first one is the growing awareness around sustainability and ethical sourcing. How is Asapuri addressing responsible business practice in the golden or ornamented face.

Jenik Soni

Can you repeat the question?

Priya Jain

Yes, sir. With growing awareness, you know, around sustainability and ethical sourcing. So how are some people addressing this responsibility of being ethical in a business practice around gold and ornamented space?

Jitendrakumar S Soni

Ethical. Ethical.

Jenik Soni

Yes. Sir, you would like to go with it?

Jitendrakumar S Soni

No, no, you can.

Jenik Soni

Okay, so for the ethical gold resource, we have our all the vendor Partners very much conform and fundamental that from where do they Source their gold? It should be based. It should be rightly imported also. And we are the qualified Jewelers by iabx. So according to their criteria, when a jeweler is qualified in all terms of sustainability and ethical thing, then only they can become a qualified jeweler and directly import gold under SEZ agreement. So through that we follow the ethical practices.

Priya Jain

So my next question is on brand visibility like what are the key initiatives are underway to straighten the brand visibility of Asapura?

Jitendrakumar S Soni

As a we are a B2B company. So we are a B2B company, madam. [Foreign Speech]

Priya Jain

Even in B2B it’s not easy to get time. So certain trust level is built there to get B2B business also. So I want to understand that how you are catching to these clients and this business.

Jenik Soni

So now for the trust sector, we are present in all over the markets and participating all the exhibitions and shows. And we are working with over 15 years to all the big chains and corporates in India and through our work, our designs and our clear jewelry concepts the trust is formed in the B2B space. So B2B space is not like the retail one where the scope is so broader, it’s so narrow. All the clients very well know us and they know how do we work in the markets.

Priya Jain

So also do you like plan any exhibitions or do you plan to go in that segment or in future can we expect that Asapuri will be a customer centric business and catering to retail?

Jenik Soni

No, ma’am, we are very much clear on the manufacturing side and supplying to all the national and regional jewelry chains. We have not plans of any retail presence or supplying directly to the end users.

Priya Jain

Fair enough. Good to hear all the best. Thank you.

Operator

Thank you. The next question is from the line of Abhishek Sharma, an individual investor. Please go ahead.

Abhishek Sharma

Hello?

Operator

Yes.

Abhishek Sharma

Hello?

Jenik Soni

Yeah.

Abhishek Sharma

So my question is, what is the company strategy to manage inventory turnover efficiently, especially in premium and custom design categories? Hello?

Jenik Soni

Yeah. So I will, I will take this question. So for the inventory turnover and for customized designs, we have a very clear guidelines. We have two types of Revenue system. One is make to order and one is ready to dispatch stock. So, for example, when there are upcoming season, we make capsule collections. on manual sketch and present it to our clients. So the filtration and selection process is done beforehand making the physical jewelry. So on that terms, we are very much clear that what we make manufactured will be delivered. So that’s how we manage our inventory. And if you have seen, we have reduced our cash conversion cycle from around 200 to 160 days also. So that’s increasing operational efficiency for us.

Abhishek Sharma

Okay, so next question is, could you elaborate on the company digital or omnichannel strategy to enhance sales and reach younger tech-savvy customers?

Jenik Soni

Yes, we do follow that omnichannel, but it does not implement what in B2B as it does in retail because when a retailer or a big box retailer is sourcing from us, He would, he or she would prefer to have a physical touch and feel of the jewelry because it’s a high value product. So, and we also deal in the bridal category. So the product ranges are around 8 lakhs to 15 lakhs per piece. So the omni-channel part doesn’t make much sense here, but we do follow, we do have our ER applications and design catalog as well.

Abhishek Sharma

Okay, the last question, so what are the key levels the company is exploring to improve EBITA margins in the coming quarters.

Jenik Soni

Sir, you would like to go with this?

Jitendrakumar S Soni

[Foreign Speech] we have more focus on margin increase, high margin product focusing and premium products. [Foreign Speech] through our high margin product.

Abhishek Sharma

Okay. Thank you. So that’s it from my side.

Jitendrakumar S Soni

Yeah.

Operator

Thank you. We’ll take our next question from the line of Mohit Kumar, an individual investor. Please go ahead.

Mohit Kumar

Yeah, thank you for the opportunity, first of all. So my question is, how is Ashapuri managing pricing strategies amid changing gold duties and competition from online first jewelry brands?

Jitendrakumar S Soni

[Foreign Speech] we are using the hedging strategy. Majorly we have two type of sales is one is an unfixed and one is fixed. When the product selling and fixed sales that doesn’t impact in our pricing movement. [Foreign Speech]

Mohit Kumar

Okay, thank you. So, the next question I have is, are there any plans for fundraising or equity dimension to support growth initiatives, acquisitions or working capital needs in the near future?

Jitendrakumar S Soni

[Foreign Speech]

Mohit Kumar

Oh, okay. Thank you for answering that. So, yeah, that’s it from my side.

Operator

Thank you. The next question is from the line of Shreya Verma from Unity Finance. Please go ahead.

Shreya Verma

Hi sir, good afternoon. Hello.

Jenik Soni

Good afternoon. Yes.

Shreya Verma

Sir, I wanted to know what is Aasha Pradish’s current market share in the regions it operates and how does the company plan to capture a larger share of the organized regions.

Jenik Soni

Yes, so I would like to take this question. By defining the market share in this industry is a little bit tricky and difficult because it’s very much segmented markets. There are lots of types of different jewelry concepts and scales between in which other players deal. So bringing out the right market share for this industry is pretty much difficult. But you can judge the company on terms of numbers and volumes that does in the industry under one category because there are other players who deal in lightweight which is a very concept. But we focus on antique jewelry which is occasion and festive concept. So kind of retailer purchases both types of concepts. So bringing out market share is difficult in this.

Shreya Verma

Okay and how do you differentiate like from other listed and unlisted players in the antique and traditional jewelry?

Jenik Soni

Yes, so I would like to say that our main addition on the fundamental basis is design language from FY 2324 to FY 2425 our design bank increased from 18,000 designs to 25,000 designs so that’s the main value addition for us where we differentiate and second is the rapid delivery and we have a physical stock also. So in terms when the client’s urgent needs rises, we can supply them from our stock directly. So that two things are our differentiation from other players in the market.

Shreya Verma

And what percentage of the company’s revenue comes from institutional or bulk orders versus retail customers? Is there any focus strategy to grow either?

Jenik Soni

Yes. So currently we have our revenue distributed in two parts. One is national and regional chains and one is big box slide. So in last year, around 222 carats was generated from corporate clients and around 93-94 carats was generated from big box clients.

Shreya Verma

And has the company explored or implemented export opportunities for its antique or designer jewelry collection? If so, what markets have been targeted?

Jenik Soni

As of now, For the gold, India is a blessing because now for last two years it has become the highest consumption market in the world. Yes, we do have export licenses and we have explored opportunities. We are open to explore. But currently we have very much big opportunity and much more forward going approach in Indian markets only. So we have a main focus present in domestic markets, supplying and increasing our pocket share in national regional utility chains.

Shreya Verma

Thank you. So I have one last question. Can you provide insights into the company’s R&D or design innovation capability like they’re dedicated in-house teams or collaboration with external design?

Jenik Soni

Yes, for R&D department mainly we have mentioned in my remarks that we have launched our new collection Paniaa. So we have four different connections and a separate design team for each connections. So we have a process of filtering other designs from manual sketch to CAD to 3D to sampling to prototype stage to final designs. So that all R&D process is there and we do have dedicated team for all these things and that’s how the design is created.

Shreya Verma

Thank you so much for answering all your questions.

Jenik Soni

Thank you.

Operator

Thank you. The next question is from the line of Satyam who is an investor. Please go ahead.

Satyam

Hi team, thanks for the opportunity. My question is since the management is really confident about the growth prospect, is there any plan to go for increasing the management share by via by that. That is the question.

Jenik Soni

Jitubhai, you will go with this?

Jitendrakumar S Soni

I just proper not here on this question.

Satyam

Okay, so mine is whether the management is planning to increase the stake because currently the management shareholding is somewhere around 50 percentage. Previously it was closer to 70. So now any plan to increase the percentage as a buyback option?

Jitendrakumar S Soni

100%. We have we close the FY 23-24 as well in terms of KGV sales. 273 kg and in Fy 2024-25 we sales almost 440 kg. So its growth shows in last year to year 61 and we are very much hopeful about this year that we close 50 to 60 growth in terms of quantity kg stems. So we majorly analysis our all the meetings, board meetings or target achievement in only in kg, not in figures. So we are very much open for the this year that we close the approximately 50 to 60% growth from here.

Satyam

Okay. And any plan to increase the shareholding from the promoter side?

Jitendrakumar S Soni

Yeah, of course. Why not? Whenever it’s get we have some opportunity gets we can increase our shareholding pattern.

Satyam

But any but no plan to reduce it, right? Because already we have less than just below 50 percentage. So no plan to reduce. But if in case any opportunity arises, you will increase this.

Jitendrakumar S Soni

Just because last year we raised a fund. That’s why the somehow the shareholding pattern is the shareholders promoter shareholding reduced. but when the last year we have just a fundraising. So if any chance to the shareholder, plus increase, we can increase.

Satyam

Okay. Okay. Thank you. Thank you so much. That’s it from my side.

Operator

Thank you. The next question is from the line of nitin Varma, an individual Investor. Please go ahead.

Nitin Verma

Hi. Hi. I’m audible.

Nitin Verma

So my question is based on your intro that you said that you are trying to venture into Diamond as well. And the second thing you said that in the next two, three months you are trying to increase the capacity. So regarding those two in Diamond, are you planning to venture into lab grown diamonds or natural diamonds or both?

And regarding the second increase the capacity, how much capacity are you planning to increase from the existing gas. Currently you are on 93% utilization. So what is the new capacity that you are going to add in the next two three months? These are the two questions.

Jitendrakumar S Soni

Janik?

Jenik Soni

Yes. So for the capacity utilization around we are on 500 kgs and we are looking to expand around 50% of 500 kgs. in next two, three months. And again, it depends on the market condition. If we got good orders and good response, and we can get up to one ton also.

And can you come back with the second question, please?

Nitin Verma

I do. You just mentioned that you are planning to go into diamonds also.

Jenik Soni

Diamonds. Yes. Okay. Yes. Okay.

Nitin Verma

Two markets are there. There is a lap grown diamond and natural diamond, so. Okay, what are the plans?

Jenik Soni

Okay, so currently we are doing specific project based collections for bulky and diamond jewelry in which the major part of jewelry is will be focusing on Polki side. And for the diamond we are not looking to foray into lab grown diamonds. As of now, we will only dealing in natural diamonds.

Nitin Verma

Okay. And one more. The current capacity which you have, how much percentage is going to increase on that? I just couldn’t. collect the number.

Jenik Soni

50%.

Nitin Verma

So if things go well, so in this current year financially, will we will we be able to utilize the whole capacity which we are increasing?

Jenik Soni

Arvind Jadhav

Okay, that’s good. And who are the competitors? Can you mention one or two names?

Jenik Soni

It’s a segmented industry, sir. Each and everyone has their different design concepts and each and everyone has their right share of market. So as of now, we don’t see anyone as a direct competitor to us, but it’s an industry where we can work on our own concept because the main thing product and product is differentiation on terms of designs and that are different with all the other players.

Arvind Jadhav

And what could be the per piece costing of the juggling? Can you mention that? What is the minimum cost of the per piece? Is there any reason for that?

Jenik Soni

That’s objective. That depends on various factors like what type of design, what weight is, what weight range it is, what is the making charge, what are the stones used? So it’s objective, sir.

Arvind Jadhav

Okay. Okay.And last one, D, this time the employee cost is much lower compared to last quarter. means December quarter. So why that much of difference is there? Compared to December, it is less than 50%.

Jenik Soni

Yes, for the Northeast we have onboarded two regional chains as of now and we are also currently seeing the product market fit and observing all the business model structure is fitting there or not. But we have onboarded two regional chains from Northeast.

Suruchi Parmar

So these are towards your new focused product Ameya or your other products?

Jenik Soni

No, it’s for our mainland existing collections, which is mine and kish.

Suruchi Parmar

Okay.

Jenik Soni

Which is lightweight.

Suruchi Parmar

And so going forward, what do you think? Like looking at the northeastern market, what feel like the heavy jewelry and all the diamond one will. you can grab the market there or what you feel.

Jenik Soni

We are still in the observation process. We’ll for one more quarter, we’ll see, and then we’ll finally come out of the outcome set. How does the market works there?

Suruchi Parmar

So the two chains you’re talking about, you have onboarded is the, the, the customers are, uh, or the client is the same which you are have already worked in the other regions or it’s the new ones?

Jenik Soni

No, no, no, no. They are based out of headquartered in Northeast only.

Suruchi Parmar

Suruchi Parmar

Jenik Soni

So currently top 10 customers contribute over 48% of our revenue. So and they are constantly repeat with two or three types of times of dealing per month. And on the two, three different channels which were mentioned is order based, event based, in exhibitions. So there is a good amount of repeat we get from our clients.

Jitendrakumar S Soni

[Foreign Speech]

Suruchi Parmar

Sir, I just wanted to know in your business is seasonality there? When you are into going for this some show or something and there seasonality comes or quarter on quarter same business will be there. Can you elaborate on that?

Jenik Soni

Yes, the seasonality don’t come on the shows, it comes on quarter on quarter basis because when it’s festive and occasion season starting from quarter two and quarter three, the quarter numbers are much better. And quarter four and quarter one is little bit of lean period where we focus on lightweight concept and new innovative designs which is used for, you know, daily wear concepts. and things like that. So we grab sales from our jewelry inventory management according to the quarters.

Suruchi Parmar

Suruchi Parmar

Yes.

Suruchi Parmar

Yes. So now the whatever revenue growth will be added based on your new capacity it will be there.

Jenik Soni

Yes, of course. We do have a premises of manufacturing unit. [Foreign Speech]. For increasing the capacity wouldn’t be much a task for us. We just need two to three weeks to set up a floor with skilled artisans and we can increase our production capacity based on the required demand.

Suruchi Parmar

Okay. Okay. Thank you so much for answering all the questions and all the best.

Jenik Soni

Operator

Thank you. The next question is from the line of Mahesh, an individual investor. Please go ahead.

Mahesh

Hello, can you hear me?

Operator

Yes, sir.

Mahesh

Thank you for the opportunity. So my first question is that can you elaborate on the lead times from design to final product delivery? and how are you improving operational efficiency in the area?

Jenik Soni

Okay, so generally lead time, okay, so generally lead time depends on the type of jewelry we do manufacture. So there are total four different collections in which we deal for registered antique jewelry. It’s all handmade antique jewelry. which are for content. So it takes around 20 to 25 days of lead time from manual sketches to final product for antique jewelry. And for temple jewelry, it takes around 18 to 20 days to convert it into from sketch to final.

And for again, Polki and diamond jewelry, it’s similar time to our early selection around three weeks. and for the operational efficiency question, I would like to say that we are also focusing on specific tailored collection for the clients in which we do get orders based on the new design concepts and sampling protos for them, and by which we do not have to make our mainline stock, and that’s how we increase our inventory cycle.

Mahesh

Okay, got it. And my next question is that what is the current capacity utilization at your production facility? And are there plans for the capacity expansion in the near term?

Jenik Soni

Yes, I have already mentioned that before. So currently we have 500 kg of production capacity. We are planning to increase around 50% in next two to three months. and if we can see the good demands, we can mostly double it also in this year. Okay, so doubling it in this year.

Mahesh

Okay. Got it. Thank you. Thank you for answering.
