Founded in 1994
Tanishq positioned itself as Indian brand that combined tradition & heritage. By
2006, Tanishq had 80 stores
In 2004, Titan went brand valuation exercise and it showed that Tanishq was moving
towards retail jewelers and they were moving up towards Tanishq
New collections were launched both in diamonds and 22-karat gold collection

Erode was profitable
for Tanishq proposed conducted in two
with 19% ROI &
to serve the semi- locations – Erode &
Ratlam had sales of

Rs. 3 crores
Launch of Gold Plus would distract the firm, customer & the channel
Tanishq will capture the wedding jewellery market as small towns begin to resemble
the urban customers
Gold Plus positioning will cannibalize Tanishq’s sales when these stores are
constructed closely
Tanishq is value at high end and GoldPlus is out & out low margin volume & based
on the watch they assume that both will be effective
