Importantly, the expiry of the lock-in does not necessarily translate into immediate selling, but only makes these shares eligible for trading.
Brokerage firm HSBC had initiated coverage on the stock in March with a ‘hold’ rating and a target price of ₹513.
The brokerage had said Lenskart’s backward-integrated model and direct-to-consumer approach as key strengths, creating a strong competitive moat in the consumer segment. It also sees sustained growth driven by expansion in the total addressable market and market share gains.

HSBC expects Lenskart’s revenue and EBITDA to grow at a CAGR of 23% and 49%, respectively, over FY25-FY28, with improving margins across both domestic and international operations. However, it flagged that elevated valuations relative to peers may cap near-term upside.
According to Bloomberg data, 16 analysts track the stock, of which 12 have a ‘buy’ rating, three recommend ‘hold’, and one has a ‘sell’ call.
