HDFC Securities, the brokerage arm of HDFC Bank, has reported a robust 18% year-on-year growth in its profit after tax (PAT), reaching ₹1,125 crore for the financial year ending March 2025. This impressive performance comes on the back of increased trading activity, strong retail participation, and an overall bullish market sentiment. The company also saw a significant 20% rise in its net revenue, which touched ₹2,479 crore for FY25, while total income stood at ₹3,265 crore—up 23% from the previous fiscal year. These numbers highlight the firm’s expanding footprint in the Indian capital markets and its growing influence in the investment ecosystem. One of the key drivers of this growth was the margin trading funding (MTF) portfolio, which surged by 50% year-on-year to ₹8,343 crore. Furthermore, equity trading volumes reached ₹8 lakh crore, reflecting a 24% rise compared to FY24. This was largely supported by improved retail investor participation and increasing interest in equity markets as a wealth creation tool. HDFC Securities has also focused on enhancing its digital presence, strengthening its research capabilities, and widening its client base through technology-driven solutions. These strategic moves have enabled the brokerage firm to maintain its competitive edge and deliver consistent returns. With solid fundamentals, rising market interest, and a focus on innovation, HDFC Securities is well-positioned to continue its growth trajectory in the coming years.
