Zerodha Capital, the lending arm
of the Zerodha Group, reported a 44.2% year-on-year increase in total income to
Rs 53.5 crore in FY26, while its net profit grew 20.5% to Rs 14.7 crore, driven
by the rapid expansion of its loan-against-securities (LAS) business, according
to a recent ICRA disclosure. The Bengaluru-based non-banking finance company
(NBFC) posted a net profit of Rs 14.7 crore in FY26, compared to Rs 12.2 crore
in the previous fiscal year. Its total income grew 44.2% to Rs 53.5 crore from Rs
37.1 crore in FY25.
The growth was supported by a
sharp expansion in its lending portfolio, with Zerodha Capital’s loan book
rising to Rs 580 crore as of March 31, 2026, as the company continued to
leverage Zerodha’s large broking customer base. ICRA reaffirmed the company’s
long-term and short-term ratings at [ICRA]AA- (Stable) and [ICRA]A1+,
respectively, while enhancing the rated amount of its fund-based bank
facilities from Rs 600 crore to Rs 900 crore. The agency also withdrew its
rating on the company’s Rs 100 crore non-convertible debenture programme as no
amount remains outstanding under the facility.
