Why the Market Is Selling Page Industries Today

Page Industries at 62x P/E requires 15%+ premium innerwear growth to justify the multiple. 6% growth against a 62x P/E means either the multiple compresses significantly or the market is pricing in a recovery that the current data doesn’t support.

The Bull Case — Why This Sell-Off May Be Overdone

Premium innerwear demand at 6% is partly a base effect — Q4 FY25 was 18% growth on an already high base. Two-year CAGR at 11–12% is still healthy for a category growing at GDP+. Jockey’s brand recall (spontaneous awareness 82%) and premium positioning prevent meaningful competitor penetration.

What Most Investors Are Missing

Page Industries’ 6% SSSG includes a deliberate inventory correction by the largest modern trade channel partners. Flipkart and Reliance Retail — Jockey’s two biggest modern trade accounts — reduced Jockey inventory levels in Q4 FY26 as they optimised working capital. This mechanical destocking looks like demand weakness but is actually channel normalisation.
