RNFI Services reported a Profit After Tax (PAT) of approximately INR32.5 crore for FY26, representing a growth of around 62% over the previous year. The company’s management has projected a profitability growth range of 40% to 45% year-on-year for FY27, driven by insurance distribution, delinquent loan collection, Cash Management Services (CMS), and other emerging businesses. The disclosure was submitted to the National Stock Exchange of India Limited in compliance with Regulation 30 and Regulation 46(2)(oa) of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015.
Strategic Shift and Investments
During FY26, the company executed a strategic shift towards higher-margin verticals, which required significant investments in distribution expansion, sales teams, and infrastructure. These investments, largely expensed through the profit and loss account, impacted near-term profitability but are expected to yield returns within 6 to 12 months. Management emphasized that while working capital intensity has increased due to these new businesses, the superior margins and returns on capital offset this impact.
Business Performance and Outlook
The decline in the high-volume, low-margin Domestic Money Transfer (DMT) business affected top-line revenue by approximately INR60 crore but had a negligible impact on the bottom line. This was offset by growth in segments such as delinquent loan collections, CMS, and insurance. The company’s subsidiary, PaySprint, delivered approximately 100% year-on-year growth.
Looking ahead, the company plans to launch a mutual fund savings product for its Sahayak merchants around Q2 or Q3 of FY27. Additionally, the new UPI cash withdrawal product, launched in partnership with Jio Payment Bank, is expected to become a significant revenue driver.
