Bajaj Finserv reported a 23% year-on-year surge in net profit to Rs 2,758 crore for Q2 FY27, outpacing broader market declines as its shares climbed 2%.
Bajaj Finserv’s Q2 FY27 results showed a consolidated net profit of Rs 2,758 crore, up 23% from Rs 2,244 crore in the same period of FY26. Revenue from operations rose 17% to Rs 43,416 crore, driven by strong performance across its financial services and insurance segments. Bajaj Finance’s customer base expanded by 4.42 million, with new loans booked reaching 13.45 million, while its AUM grew 26% to Rs 5.85 lakh crore. Bajaj General’s gross written premium increased 10% to Rs 7,056 crore, and net earned premium rose 23% to Rs 2,947 crore. The company’s solvency ratio stood at 229%, exceeding the regulatory minimum of 150%.
The results highlight Bajaj Finserv’s diversified business model, with Bajaj Finance’s 29% net profit growth and Bajaj General’s resilience in managing credit risk. However, Bajaj General’s 19% YoY profit decline despite higher premiums signals challenges in underwriting efficiency. Investors and shareholders benefited from the profit growth and stock price gains, while customers of Bajaj Finance and Bajaj General may see expanded access to loans and insurance products.
The 23% net profit jump and 2% stock rise underscore strong financial performance, but the company’s ability to sustain profitability amid rising loan losses and underwriting pressures remains a key test. Competitors in financial services and insurance face increased market share pressure as Bajaj Finserv’s growth continues.
Bajaj Finserv’s Q2 results reflect robust growth, but sustaining profitability amid rising risks will determine its long-term success.
