Strengths
- FPAUM, the assets on which the company earns fees, grew from Rs 30,398.01 crore on 31 March 2024 to Rs 44,710.44 crore on 31 March 2026.
- Total income rose from Rs 584.25 crore in FY2024 to Rs 963.76 crore in FY2026, and profit after tax from Rs 175.16 crore to Rs 265.20 crore.
- Return on equity is 28.96% and the PAT margin is 24.01%, as per the latest figures at the source.
- Debt to equity stands at 0.34 on the latest figures, with net worth of Rs 1,160.38 crore on 30 June 2026 against Rs 1,075.54 crore on 31 March 2026.
- About 77% of AUM comes from repeat clients, and 1,493 clients had invested in more than one fund by 30 June 2026.
- Operating cash flow was positive at Rs 235.24 crore in FY2026 after being negative in FY2025 and FY2024.
- Management and advisory fees, the steadier fee line, grew from Rs 398.01 crore in FY2024 to Rs 579.07 crore in FY2026.
Risks
- The whole issue is an offer for sale of up to Rs 1,500 crore by Edelweiss Securities and Investments Private Limited. The company gets no fresh money.
- Promoters and the promoter group hold 95.03% before the issue and will hold 83.88% after it, and the promoter group already sold 28,40,000 shares in a secondary deal after the DRHP was filed.
- Variable additional return was Rs 290.47 crore in FY2026, about 30% of total income. It depends on funds beating hurdle rates and on exits, so it can swing.
- GP income fell from Rs 102.14 crore in FY2025 to Rs 79.95 crore in FY2026, and other income was Rs 94.22 crore in FY2026.
- Operating cash flow was negative at Rs -120.17 crore in FY2025 and Rs -13.27 crore in FY2024 even though profit rose.
- The cost to income ratio was 68.52% in the quarter ended 30 June 2026, against 63.33% a year earlier.
- Institutional clients fell from 64.83% of AUM on 31 March 2024 to 47.84% on 31 March 2026, so the client mix has moved towards non-institutional investors.
- The Chief Executive Officer Subahoo Chordia resigned on 7 June 2026, an independent director resigned on 30 July 2026 and a senior management member resigned on 1 April 2026.
- Total borrowings were still Rs 441.03 crore on 31 March 2026, and current tax was a small part of the tax charge of Rs 73.44 crore, the rest being deferred tax.
What the money is for
