- It operates as a multi-brand retail chain for mobile phones, including pre-owned smartphones, and has a strong procurement system.
- It has shown a consistent track record of financial performance and growth by generating revenue of ā¹2,351.031 crore, PAT of ā¹59.282 crore, and EBITDA of ā¹125.149 crore in FY26.
Weaknesses:

- SS Retail mostly depends on the top 10 suppliers for 79.09% of its mobile phones, accessories, and other electronic products. Loss of any of the top suppliers or delay in the supply of any products can adversely affect its reputation, business, and financial condition.
