  1. Export country presence - 60 by 2025 Partial - At the Q4 FY24 PPT, management guided a targeted country-presence of 60 by 2025. The count reached 60+ countries in Q3 FY26, after the 2025 deadline, and the Q4 FY26 PPT disclosed a reversion to 46+ countries.
  2. Near-term production investment - ₹40 cr through internal accrual Pending - At the Q4 FY24 PPT, management guided a near-term investment of ₹40 crores to augment production through internal accrual.

  3. Women's wear segment - cross ₹600 Cr by FY25 Pending - At the Q4 FY24 PPT, management guided that the women's wear segment is expected to cross ₹600 Crore by FY25. The FY25 horizon has passed, and our record holds no standalone women's wear segment revenue disclosure to confirm or contradict the target.
  4. Working capital - stabilize by end of Q3 FY23 Missed - At the Q1 FY23 call, management stated the working capital cycle should get stabilized towards the end of Q3 FY23.

  6. Online sales - ₹100 cr revenue in 3 years (from Q4 FY22) Missed - At the Q4 FY22 call, management guided they intend to achieve Rs. 100 crores in online sales revenue over the next 3 years.

  7. Ad spend - 7-8% of revenue for FY23-24 Partial - At the Q4 FY22 call, management stated a plan to "progressively restore our ad spending" after FY22's 6.6% level.

  9. Export growth - 25-30% YoY Delivered - In the FY25 annual report, the company aimed to achieve around 25% to 30% year-on-year growth in exports. Exports increased by ₹36 crore year-on-year in FY25, implying \~25.5% growth on the prior-year base, within the stated range.
