GIVA, a fast-growing D2C fine jewellery brand, is set to expand its retail presence to 340 stores by March 2026, with a target of 800-1,000 stores across India in the next three years.
The company currently operates 280 stores in 48 cities, with a focus on Tier-1 and Tier-2 markets. Founder Ishendra Agarwal shared that 45 percent of the new stores will open this financial year, aiming for dense coverage with a store every two–three km, up from the previous five-km model. Key cities like Bengaluru and Delhi-NCR will see further expansions, with Bengaluru adding 10–15 more stores and Delhi-NCR 72 stores.
GIVA recently raised Rs 530 crore in Series C funding, led by Creaegis, to support its aggressive retail expansion and manufacturing capabilities. "The primary use of capital will be retail expansion, where we are seeing strong customer traction," Founder Agarwal said.
