Valuation
Titan has, over the years, withstood challenges and emerged as a resilient player. We believe Titan is a structural growth story and appears to be a key beneficiary of the unorganised to organised shift in the Indian jewellery mark. At CMP, the stock trades at 55x FY24E EPS. We recommend a BUY rating in the stock with the target price (TP) of Rs.2430, 65x FY24E EPS.
