Global index provider FTSE has announced the addition of six Indian companies to its FTSE All-World and FTSE All-Cap indices as part of its May 2026 index review, with the changes set to take effect from June 22. According to reports from CNBC TV18, the newly added companies include Tata Capital, Lenskart Solutions, LG Electronics India, Meesho, ICICI Prudential Asset Management Company, and Groww. Simultaneously, Lenskart Solutions Limited has disclosed a comprehensive schedule of investor meetings from May 25 to June 23, 2026, under Regulation 30 of the SEBI (LODR) Regulations, 2015. The meetings will include virtual and in-person sessions across locations like Hong Kong, Bhiwadi, Mumbai, and London, with Lenskart clarifying that no unpublished price-sensitive information will be shared during these engagements.
The additions are expected to draw interest from passive global funds and exchange-traded funds benchmarked to FTSE indices, as reported by CNBC TV18. The move could lead to incremental inflows into the newly added stocks closer to the effective date. FTSE index changes are closely tracked by global investors because passive funds benchmarked to these indices often rebalance their portfolios based on the revisions, making these additions significant for the companies' international visibility and potential investor interest. The intensive investor relations roadshow, featuring meetings with major institutional investors like UBS, Bank of America, Morgan Stanley, and Citi, signals Lenskart's increased engagement with global capital markets and could indicate preparations for international capital raising or expansion activities.
According to recent financial data, Lenskart has successfully diversified its revenue base with 42% of revenue coming from overseas markets by FY2024, demonstrating strong international acceptance of its business model. The company's international expansion has been particularly successful in Japan, Singapore, Taiwan, and Thailand, with Lenskart adding 52 new overseas stores in FY2025 and expanding its international customer base to 2.5 million. In FY2025, international markets contributed approximately ₹2,638 crore in revenue (roughly 40% of total), representing a 17% increase from the previous year. The company's strategic acquisition of Japan-based eyewear chain Owndays in 2022 has accelerated its presence across East Asia, while it also launched operations in the Middle East and scaled up in Southeast Asia.
India remains Lenskart's core market and primary revenue driver, contributing 58% of the company's revenue (₹3,154 crore) in FY2024. The company has built an extensive domestic retail network with roughly 2,000 stores in India as of 2024, compared to around 1,500 stores in 2023. This omnichannel approach combining online platforms with physical outlets for eye tests and fulfillment has been key to Lenskart's growth in India's price-sensitive, service-oriented eyewear market. The company's financial trajectory suggests it has built a resilient model that is scaling profitably in both India and abroad, with Lenskart's FY2025 net profit at ₹297 crore.
Lenskart Solutions Limited has outlined a comprehensive investor engagement schedule from May 25 to June 23, 2026, featuring both virtual and in-person meetings across multiple locations. The schedule includes group meetings on May 25 and investor conferences with UBS in Hong Kong (May 28-29), Bank of America in Mumbai (June 2), Morgan Stanley in Mumbai (June 3), Citi in Mumbai (June 4), and IIFL in London (June 22-23). The company has noted that this schedule is subject to change depending on the availability of analysts, investors, or the company itself, while emphasizing that no unpublished price-sensitive information will be disclosed during these meetings. This intensive roadshow demonstrates Lenskart's commitment to engaging with global institutional investors and could signal preparations for significant corporate developments.
