Manba Finance Limited reported a net profit of ₹1326.28 lakh for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, representing a 34.6% increase compared to ₹975.08 lakh in the same period of the previous fiscal year. The Mumbai-based non-banking financial company (NBFC) saw its revenue from operations rise by 38.2% to ₹9,260.82 lakh, up from ₹6,700.37 lakh in Q1FY25. This growth underscores the company’s expanding lending book and improved interest income generation during the period.

The Board of Directors approved the unaudited financial results at a meeting held on July 27, 2026, following review by the Audit Committee. The statutory auditors issued an unmodified conclusion on the limited review of the accounts for the quarter ended June 30, 2026. The results were filed with the stock exchanges pursuant to Regulation 33 and Regulation 52 of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015.

Financial Performance

Earnings per share (basic) stood at ₹2.64 for the quarter, compared to ₹1.94 in Q1FY25. The company’s total income from operations also reflected this upward trajectory, indicating sustained demand for its financial products. Reserves and surplus increased to ₹21,896.54 lakh as of March 31, 2026, from ₹17,473.04 lakh a year earlier, reflecting retained earnings accumulation.

Balance Sheet Strength

Manba Finance Limited reduced its paid-up debt capital to ₹45,049.74 lakh as of June 30, 2026, down from ₹48,287.93 lakh at the end of FY26. This deleveraging effort contributed to a lower debt-equity ratio of 3.43, compared to 3.78 in the preceding quarter and 2.9 in Q1FY25. The net worth of the company rose to ₹42,308.78 lakh, providing a stronger capital base for future growth initiatives.

What the Numbers Show

The divergence between revenue growth (38.2%) and net profit growth (36.0%) suggests stable margin preservation despite aggressive expansion. The reduction in outstanding debt alongside rising profitability indicates effective asset-liability management. With reserves growing steadily and the debt-equity ratio improving from the peak of FY26, Manba Finance appears well-positioned to sustain its lending momentum while maintaining financial prudence.

Manba Finance Limited has fixed August 07, 2026, as the record date to determine shareholder eligibility for its first interim dividend for the financial year 2026-27.
