Pradeep Gupta, chairman and managing director, said, The Indian capital markets had a rough ride in FY26, with the Sensex and Nifty delivering lacklustre gains; under-performing other significant global peers. There was pressure from sustained selling by foreign investors, citing concerns over weak earnings, stretched valuations and currency volatility, which resulted in the benchmark indices remaining subdued despite brief mid-year rallies. Despite this backdrop, our business continued to grow. We delivered strong broking revenues, with Assets under Custody rising 48% year-on-year to Rs 1.06 trillion, an affirmation of our clients' trust and our disciplined approach to financial stewardship. Our non-broking businesses also registered meaningful growth, with the MTF book expanding 46% YoY to Rs 12,317 million and Assets under Management increasing 32% Yo Y to Rs 83,688 million. We will continue our focus on de-risking and stabilizing our earnings through increased exposure in the non-broking segments. In the era of discount and algorithm broking, we remain customer-oriented and our approach will always be relationship-based which is why over 54% of our clients have been with us since longer than 3 years. We take great pride in the enduring relationships that we have built - an affirmation about the consistency of our service, the relevance of our offerings and the strength of our brand.
