Groww’s Q2 income mix shifts towards margin finance and commodity trading

Profit rose 54% from a year earlier but slipped from the June quarter. Growing lending books also absorbed cash as the brokerage expanded its revenue sources.

Groww parent Billionbrains Garage Ventures reported 54% annual growth in consolidated profit for the September quarter. Results released on 14 October show a different sequential picture: operating revenue barely changed and profit declined from June.[1]

Quarterly consolidated results

Quarterly consolidated results
MeasureSep 2026Jun 2026Sep 2025
Operating revenue₹15.02bn₹15.01bn₹10.19bn
Total income₹15.41bn₹15.49bn₹10.71bn
Net profit₹7.25bn₹7.35bn₹4.71bn

Equity derivatives supplied 44.8% of total income, down from 56.9% a year earlier. Margin trading finance contributed 10.1%, against 4.7%, and commodity derivatives 6.2%, against 0.2%. These shares use total income; the letter’s separate unit-economics presentation excludes the asset-management company.[2]

Management attributed most of the 14.3% sequential decline in equity-derivatives revenue to market adjustments around the closing auction system. The expanding products helped absorb that decline, while changing the capital requirements of the business.[2]

For the six months ended September, the consolidated cash-flow statement records ₹19.15 billion deployed through an increase in loans. This contributed to ₹8.28 billion of net operating cash outflow after tax. Lending expansion therefore uses cash even while the group reports accounting profit.[1]

Its cost analysis, excluding the asset-management company, identifies ₹130 million of one-off client reimbursements for abnormal trades. Groww attributed these to an operational issue at a third-party market-infrastructure institution. A separate ₹130 million increase was linked to AI-related computing costs. Management expects inflation-driven technology costs to remain in the operating baseline.[2]
