Guidance to track

  • Management expects operating expenses to grow at 12-15% on an annual basis, including investments in distribution, technology, and new businesses.
  • Non-cash ESOP amortization for H2 FY26 is ~₹42 crore, FY27 ~₹67 crore, FY28 ~₹53 crore, FY29 ~₹33 crore, then tails off.
  • HDFC AMC has received approvals for launching SIFs and is evaluating options to be a full-service provider across categories.

Risks flagged

  • Management acknowledged that margin compression from telescopic pricing is inevitable and remains an industry reality, which could pressure yields over time.
  • While SIPs have remained resilient, management noted potential cyclicality in flows if market returns remain subdued, as seen in the past.
  • When asked about revenue contribution from alternatives, management declined to give a forward-looking statement, indicating uncertainty in scaling profitability.

Key quotes

  • We don't view margin in isolation. It's simply an outcome. The real focus is on expanding absolute profitability.
  • The heartening feature of flows is increasing amount coming through the monthly SIP number of accounts also you should notice they have also been growing quarter after quarter.
