Lenskart's India store rollout resurfaces as September update, as Titan EyeCare doubles down on precision-led omnichannel retail
Resurfacing a September 2025 update: Lenskart added 203 net new Indian stores in H1 FY26, extending its footprint to 431 cities through AI-led site selection, remote eye tests and rapid delivery. Titan EyeCare, with 871 exclusive stores as of September 2025, is prioritising optometry, fitting labs and prescription-led conversion.
Lenskart is accelerating India expansion through AI-led site selection, remote testing, fast delivery and local manufacturing, while Titan EyeCare prioritizes prescription accuracy, trained optometrists, fitting labs and omnichannel conversion. Both see significant headroom in India’s underpenetrated eyewear market.
Why this matters
The update aligns with HSBC's April 2026 view that Lenskart could scale its India network from 2,500 to about 7,000 stores, while recent coverage has framed Lenskart and Titan as rivals in India's eyewear market.
Store-opening is steady, with 1,446 signals in the past 90 days; no quarter-on-quarter comparison was provided.
