What Edelweiss Financial management says
Speaking about the company’s performance, Edelweiss Financial Services Chairman Rashesh Shah highlighted that the global economy continues to face heightened uncertainty amid ongoing geopolitical tensions and conflict in West Asia. “In such an environment, India’s economy has remained structurally secure with policies in place to absorb any external shocks. India’s growth is expected to remain steady as the government continues to advance structural reform initiatives,” he said.
“At Edelweiss, we reported a pre-MI consolidated PAT of Rs 680 crore, up 27% YoY in the year. While our reported financials carry the impact of one-time exceptional items like GST and the new labour code, the operating business momentum has remained steady and we have made significant progress on our strategic priorities. Alternative Asset Management business recorded a fund raise of Rs 10,855 crore, up 64% YoY in the year. Moreover, Citius, a transport-focused InvIT managed by the business, successfully completed its IPO. Mutual fund business witnessed robust growth of its equity AUM to Rs 78,000 crore, up 25% YoY. The general insurance business recorded a 28% YoY growth in gross written premium to Rs 1,294 crore and the life insurance business increased its AUM by 11% YoY to Rs 10,425 crore in the year. During the quarter, we completed the sale of 4.4% of EAAA’s common equity in March 2026 and announced the strategic investment by global private equity firm Carlyle in Nido Home Finance, now in the process of regulatory approvals,” he added.
