Shares of Trent, the popular retail arm of the Tata Group, jumped 5% on Monday, hitting a five-month high of ₹6,214.55. This strong performance, happening on a day when the broader market was weak, highlights investor confidence in the company.
In just the past 2 trading sessions, Trent share price has climbed 9%, reaching its highest level since early February 2025. Trading activity for Trent shares also significantly increased, with nearly 2 million shares changing hands.
A major boost for Trent came with its inclusion in the benchmark 30-stock BSE Sensex index, effective from Monday. This entry into India's most prestigious stock index is expected to bring a substantial investment inflow of about US$330 million, according to news reports.
Trent's business has grown significantly stronger over the last few years. This is a result of the company's strong focus on developing its brands, improving customer shopping experiences, and rapidly expanding its store network. The company's annual report for FY25 mentioned that Trent sees many opportunities for strong growth ahead.
Trent's main strategies aim to make its product offerings truly stand out. By using a connected system that includes supply chain, technology, and support services, Trent expects its growing size to continue driving better performance and results.
Trent's goal is to be "India-first" in its operations and to enter high-demand product areas. Its fast-fashion brand, Zudio, is expected to remain a leader, gaining more market share due to its strong brand recognition.
The company also aims to save costs by speeding up how quickly products are sold (inventory turns), reducing advertising with celebrities, and using shared technology systems.
Trent aims for 25% annual revenue growth in the medium to long run. This will be driven by opening many more stores (around 200-220 new stores each year), gaining more share in local markets, and creating new brands in new categories. Zudio is seen as a key driver, expected to grow by nearly 40% between FY25 and FY27.
With strong sourcing abilities and a focus on expanding its reach with value-focused products, Trent is well-positioned to stay ahead in the industry.
At 3:10 PM, Trent share price was up 3.91% and was trading at ₹6,128.
