Prudent Corporate Advisory Services Limited conducted its Q3FY26 earnings conference call on January 28, 2026, hosted by ICICI Securities Limited. The management team, led by Chairman and Managing Director Sanjay Shah and CEO Shirish Patel, discussed the company's strong quarterly performance and strategic outlook with analysts and investors.

AUM Growth Momentum and Market Performance

The company demonstrated robust AUM growth momentum during Q3FY26, with quarterly average AUM reaching ₹127,600 crores. The management highlighted strong resilience in business fundamentals despite market volatility, with equity net sales crossing ₹1,200 crores in January 2026.

SIP Performance and Market Share Expansion

The company's SIP book showed consistent growth, reaching ₹1,135 crores as of December 2025 and further expanding to ₹1,170 crores currently. Market share in SIP flows improved by 20 basis points year-on-year to 3.5%, with management targeting ₹1,200 crores monthly SIP flows by March 2026.

Indus Capital Acquisition Integration

Management provided positive updates on the Indus Capital acquisition integration, completed on October 1, 2025. The acquisition has proven highly cash accretive, contributing ₹571.97 crores in commission income during Q3FY26. The integration involves 15 experienced relationship managers under seasoned leadership, with client meetings showing significant comfort regarding the transition.

SEBI TER Changes and Strategic Impact

The management discussed recent SEBI changes to Total Expense Ratio (TER) regulations, effective April 2026. Key changes include TER calculations becoming exclusive of GST and removal of 5 basis points exit load benefit. While revenue neutral for GST-registered distributors, the changes create a level playing field and strategic advantages for attracting smaller distributors to the Prudent platform.

Insurance Business and Product Diversification

The insurance segment showed mixed performance with premium growth of 13% sequentially, though revenue growth moderated to 3.6% due to GST-related rate rationalization in health insurance. Life insurance impact was contained to less than 10% through successful renegotiation with manufacturers.

Strategic Outlook and Capital Deployment

With a treasury corpus of ₹537 crores, the company remains well-positioned for strategic acquisitions similar to Indus Capital. Management expressed confidence in identifying quality distribution assets with experienced teams, leveraging their successful integration experience for future growth opportunities.

Operational Highlights

The company reported record-breaking performance across multiple metrics in January 2026, including highest-ever net sales, SIP registrations, and health insurance business. Employee strength stood at 1,539 as of December 31, 2025, supporting the expanded operations post-acquisition.
