Trent, the parent company of Zudio and Westside, will announce its June quarter (Q1FY27) result on Thursday, August 6. The company is expected to report upbeat quarterly earnings with double-digit growth in revenue and net profit.

During its Q1FY27 business update, the Tata-Group company reported standalone revenue growth of 19% YoY to ₹5,666 crore, while the total store count was at 1,312 (301 Westside, 982 Zudio and 29 stores across other lifestyle concepts). During the quarter, the company opened 19 Zudio and 1 Westside stores.

According to experts, the Tata Group-owned company could report standalone revenue growth of 18 to 21% YoY between ₹5,666 to ₹5,810 crore. The company registered revenue of ₹4,781 crore in Q1FY26, while it stood at ₹4,937 crore in the previous quarter.

Meanwhile, Trent’s net profit could rise by 13% to 16% YoY to ₹480 to ₹491 crore. The company’s net profit was ₹423 crore in the June quarter of FY26 and ₹455 crore in the previous quarter.

Investors will look forward to key performance metrics like same-store sales growth, EBITDA margins and management commentary on future growth estimates and overall demand outlook as well as business expansion strategy across metro and other cities.

Ahead of the Q1 result announcement, Trent shares closed 0.6% higher at ₹3,129 on August 5. Trent stock has gained nearly 10% so far in 2026.

Technical outlook

Trent has recovered steadily after the sharp July correction and is now trading around ₹3,120, above its 200-day EMA near ₹2,955. The momentum setup remains positive, and ADX above 20, indicating improving trend strength.

The stock can move towards ₹3,200–3,250 and later ₹3,400 while it holds above ₹3,000. A close below the 200-day EMA may weaken the structure and drag the stock towards ₹2,850–2,900.

Options outlook

As of 6 August, the price of Trent’s at-the-money straddle for the 25 August expiry indicates a potential price movement of around ±6.9%. This suggests that the options market is anticipating increased volatility around the earnings event.

However, before deploying strategies to take advantage of this expected movement, it is useful to consider how the stock has historically reacted during previous earnings cycles.

Options strategy for Trent

With the options market pricing in a potential move of around ±6.9% in Trent ahead of the 25 August expiry, volatility-based strategies come into focus.

Traders expecting a sharp move can consider a long straddle, which involves buying both an at-the-money call and put. This strategy benefits if the stock breaks decisively beyond the implied range in either direction.

On the other hand, if the view is that Trent may stay rangebound, a short straddle could be considered. Here, both the ATM call and put are sold to capture premium, with profits accruing if the stock remains within the ±6.9% band. However, this strategy carries significant risk if the stock makes a strong directional move.
