After a jaw-dropping rally of over 200 per cent in the past year, PC Jeweller’s stock isn’t done making noise. Even with exchanges slapping it with surveillance measures, the stock rose again today (July 10, 2025) by nearly 4 per cent as investors geared up for a crucial board meeting.

Why the buzz? The company is expected to discuss raising fresh funds. And that has traders split: Will it fuel the turnaround or dilute the party?

Today’s trigger: A boardroom vote

The company’s board is meeting today (July 10) to consider raising funds through a preferential issue. This typically means issuing new shares to select investors, often at a discount.

On paper, this sounds positive, especially since PC Jeweller wants to become debt-free by FY26. But markets don’t love dilution, and the stock is already in a zone where any misstep could scare off momentum chasers.

About the company

PC Jeweller is a homegrown jewellery brand with stores across India. It designs and retails gold, diamond and silver jewellery. It once rode the boom in branded jewellery but has had a rough patch – debt woes, loss of investor trust and falling profits. But now, it’s staging a fightback.

Below is a table summarising the company’s fundamentals.

Metric Value
Market cap Rs 12,296 crore
P/E ratio 21.3
P/B ratio 1.9
ROE - 19.1 per cent

The takeaway

PC Jeweller’s comeback story isn’t over yet. But with valuations rising and ASM in play, it might be wise to wait for clarity from today’s boardroom before making a move. For long-term investors, it’s a stock worth watching—but maybe not one to chase blindly.
