For years, India’s fintech story has been about apps that make payments faster.

But the next chapter is about something deeper — how merchants grow smarter with every transaction.

Pine Labs is entering the public market with a price band of ₹210-221 per share, launching 7- 11 November, raising ~₹3,900 crore. ​

From enabling tap-and-pay to powering EMI financing, digital gift cards, and loyalty programs — it’s turning every swipe into data, every data point into insight, and every insight into opportunity.

Behind every QR code at a local store or POS machine at a luxury outlet, there’s a layer of Pine Labs’ technology — connecting millions of merchants to credit, commerce, and customers.

Now, with its ₹3,900 crore IPO, Pine Labs is not chasing valuation hype.

FY25 revenue surged 28.5% YoY to ₹2,274 crore, while losses narrowed sharply from FY24.

But here’s the truth: It’s not yet a legacy profit-machine,  Pine Labs still posted a net loss of ~₹145 crore in FY25.

• Grey Market Premium  Substantially Falls in 5 days from ₹60 to ₹12.

• Key risks remain: It is still loss-making (net loss ~₹145 crore in FY25) despite revenue growth (~28% YoY). 

• Competitive pressure is high: payments & merchant commerce is crowded, both domestically and globally, and margin squeeze is possible. 

• Execution/internationalisation risk: The overseas growth and high-margin adjacencies are promising, but converting them into profits will take time.

• Investor dilution/esop risk: With a sizeable fresh issue plus OFS, institutional locking, and existing shareholder exits (eg. Peak XV Partners, PayPal Pte. Ltd., Mastercard Asia/Pacific Pte. Ltd.) the market will watch shareholding dynamics closely. 

Groww, one of India’s fastest-growing investment platforms, has rolled out commodities trading, allowing users to invest in crude oil, gold, silver, and other futures directly on its app. The move marks Groww’s next phase of evolution from a stock-broking startup to a complete investment ecosystem.

• The launch comes just days before the much-awaited Groww IPO, set to open on November 4, with a price band of ₹95-₹100 per share and an issue size of around ₹6,632 crore. By entering the commodities market, Groww aims to attract a wider investor base and boost engagement before its listing. 

• While commodities bring higher volatility, they also offer portfolio diversification — a strategic edge for both investors and the platform. As Groww broadens its product mix, it positions itself as a key challenger in India’s fintech and broking space.  

• Financial Performance (Q2FY26 vs Q2FY25): In Q2FY26, Hero FinCorp reported a 5.7% YoY decline in total income to ₹2,139 Cr, compared with ₹2,268 Cr in Q2FY25, primarily due to lower interest income (-4.5% YoY to ₹1,868 Cr). Total revenue from operations stood at ₹2,137 Cr versus ₹2,265 Cr a year ago. Operating performance weakened sharply, with Profit Before Tax (PBT) turning into a loss of ₹100.0 Cr against a profit of ₹62.6 Cr in Q2FY25, largely driven by higher impairment on financial instruments (+11.7% YoY to ₹644.8 Cr) and elevated finance costs (+0.9% YoY to ₹835.2 Cr). After tax, the company reported a Net Loss of ₹112.8 Cr, compared to a profit of ₹26.5 Cr in Q2FY25. Consequently, Earnings Per Share (EPS) fell to ₹(8.71) from ₹2.09 in the same quarter last year. For H1FY26, total income declined 1.2% YoY to ₹4,474.1 Cr (vs ₹4,529.6 Cr in H1FY25), while Net Loss stood at ₹162.5 Cr, compared with a profit of ₹66.0 Cr in H1FY25.
  
  
• Operational Metrics (Q2FY26 vs Q2FY25): Hero FinCorp’s net profit margin stood at -5.3%, down from 1.2% in Q2FY25, reflecting rising funding and credit costs. Asset quality deteriorated — Gross NPA (GNPA) increased to 5.41% (vs 4.63% YoY) and Net NPA (NNPA) rose to 2.41% (vs 2.22% YoY). However, the Provision Coverage Ratio (PCR) improved to 56.83% from 53.27%, providing a stronger cushion against stressed assets. The company maintained a healthy capital position, with the Capital to Risk Weighted Assets Ratio (CRAR) at 17.41% (vs 16.67% YoY) and the Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) improving sharply to 145.7% (from 105.4% last year), indicating ample liquidity reserves. Total debt to total assets remained stable at 86.5%, while Net Worth increased 2.3% YoY to ₹5,846.6 Cr (vs ₹5,714.8 Cr in Q2FY25).
  
  
• Strategic Developments: During H1FY26, Hero FinCorp acquired 2,148 loan accounts worth ₹117.8 Cr and transferred 1,01,161 loan accounts worth ₹1,475.3 Cr, reflecting continued portfolio churn and balance sheet optimization. Q2FY26 was a challenging quarter for Hero FinCorp, with profitability hit by elevated credit provisions and higher finance costs amid a tight interest rate environment. However, the company maintained robust capital adequacy (17.4%), improved liquidity coverage, and strengthened provisioning buffers. Portfolio stress remains concentrated in the MSME and personal loan segments, though the resolution book continues to decline — an encouraging sign. The planned Hero Fincorp IPO and potential reclassification of CCPS as equity are expected to enhance net worth and reduce leverage.

Update on OYO’s Bonus Issue

• Re-evaluation of Bonus Structure: Based on feedback received on the ongoing bonus issue,OYO has decided to re-evaluate and introduce a new, simplified bonus structure that will include all shareholders- both equity and CCPS holders, ensuring equal participation.
  
  
• Withdrawal of Current Resolution: As regulatory provisions do not permit mid-process changes, OYO will not proceed with the current resolution and will instead present a fresh, unified proposal for shareholder approval in compliance with the Companies Act, 2013.
  
  
• No Opt-In Required: The revised structure will be announced shortly and will not require shareholders to opt in separately.
  

According to OYO, the decision reflects the company’s continued commitment to governance-first growth, fairness, and long-term value creation for all categories of shareholders. OYO further stated that the upcoming bonus structure will embody its belief that every shareholder should have an equal opportunity to participate in PRISM’s next phase of growth.

OYO (Oravel Stays Limited, “PRISM”) has issued an important update regarding the Bonus CCPS (“Bonus Shares”) as outlined in its Postal Ballot Notice dated October 28, 2025. Based on shareholder feedback received on the Postal Ballot, the Company has decided to communicate the details more clearly, extend the option election timeline, and reaffirm its commitment to transparency and a shareholder-friendly approach.

    • Upon non-achievement, each Bonus CCPS will convert into 0.10 equity share (“Milestone Non-Achievement Ratio”).

In 2015, two friends, Aman Gupta and Sameer Mehta, looked at India’s youth and saw one thing missing — affordable, stylish sound. What began as a small D2C experiment soon became boAt, a brand that turned earphones into a fashion statement.

• Today, boAt’s parent, Imagine Marketing Ltd, has filed its Updated DRHP with SEBI for a ₹1,500 crore IPO, trimmed from the earlier ₹2,000 crore plan.
• The issue comprises a fresh issue of ₹500 crore and an Offer-For-Sale (OFS) of ₹1,000 crore. This listing marks a key moment: from a digital born brand dominating Indian personal audio to a public‐market entity with governance and liquidity in full focus.

Market Leadership & Scale: boAt claims approximately a 25% market share by value and 34% by volume in India’s branded personal audio segment for FY25.  

Its affordable yet aspirational branding has made it one of India’s fastest-growing consumer electronics brands — a key moat against global competitors like Noise and OnePlus.

In FY25, it posted revenue of ~₹3,070.38 crore and turned profitable with net profit of ~₹61.08 crore, a turnaround after previous losses. In the first quarter of FY26, the company reported operating revenue of Rs 628 crore and a net profit of Rs 21.35 crore.

Diversified Portfolio & Channel Reach: The brand’s product range spans audio (earphones, speakers), wearables (smartwatches, rings), and charging solutions. On the distribution front, about 70.5% of sales were through online channels and ~29.5% through offline in FY25, plus over 12,000 offline retailers across India. 

The brand is a lifestyle icon, but its real test is profit sustainability.

Margins remain thin in a market crowded by Noise, OnePlus, and Fire-Boltt.
However, boAt’s local manufacturing, brand loyalty, and youth connect give it a moat most rivals dream of.

The upcoming IPO isn’t just a market event for Lenskart.com; it’s a statement. CEO and co-founder Peyush Bansal has repeatedly emphasised that this is “not an exit event” but a fresh beginning.

As the company seeks to raise capital and expand its investor base, the emotional stake remains with its promoters, signalling long-term commitment rather than a cash-out.

Lenskart has evolved from a purely online eyewear startup into a consumer-tech ecosystem that spans manufacturing, retail and global distribution. With a profit in FY25 and revenues in the multiple-thousands of crores, the business model now hinges on sustainable growth, not just scale.

This IPO isn’t about “growth at all costs”  it’s about converting that growth into durability, in a sector where many once flamed out.

On the financials, the story is turning more compelling:

• FY25 revenue reached ~₹6,652 crore (up ~22.5 % year-on-year) and profit came in at ~₹297 crore — a meaningful swing from the ~₹10 crore loss in FY24.

• The fund-raise proceeds are earmarked for several growth levers: ~₹273 crore for new company-owned stores, ~₹591 crore for lease/rent payments tied to expansion, ~₹213 crore for technology & cloud infrastructure, and ~₹320 crore for brand marketing.

However — this is not a no-brainer. The valuation implied (~US$8 billion / ~₹70,000 crore) demands sustained execution across physical stores, supply-chain integration, and global markets. With large shareholders such as SoftBank Vision Fund, Temasek Holdings-US and Kedaara Capital participating or exiting via OFS, investor sentiment will lean heavily on clarity around margins and growth-durability

• EBITDA stood at ₹364.14 crore in FY25, up from ₹347.04 crore in FY24, implying an EBITDA margin of 11.0%, compared to 12.2% in FY24, reflecting moderate cost inflation during expansion.

• As per the latest DRHP, the company plans to raise ₹300 crore through a fresh issue of shares and an offer-for-sale (OFS) of up to 2.85 crore shares by existing shareholders. Major selling shareholders include Promoter Hanmantrao Gaikwad and investors Strategic Investments FM (Mauritius) Alpha and Strategic Investments FM (Mauritius) B, affiliates of the 3i Group.
• Earlier, BVG India had filed its DRHP in September 2021 for a smaller issue size (₹200 crore fresh issue and 16.98 lakh shares OFS), which was later returned by SEBI in March 2023. Promoters currently hold 58.74% of the company, while public shareholders — led by Strategic Investments Alpha (21.89%) — own the remaining 41.26%.

Outlook

• BVG India concluded FY25 with its highest-ever total income and profit, driven by expanding service offerings, efficient operations, and steady demand across facility and emergency management services. With investments in technology, workforce skilling, and diversification across infrastructure and healthcare projects, the company is well-positioned to capture long-term opportunities in India’s organized facility management and integrated service outsourcing market.
• The upcoming IPO is expected to further strengthen its balance sheet, enhance visibility, and provide liquidity to early investors — positioning BVG India for the next phase of growth and market leadership.

Gujarat outpaced all states in the number of SME IPOs, with 31 companies debuting on BSE SME and NSE Emerge, edging past Maharashtra (28 listings) and Delhi (20). While Gujarat’s issuers mobilised around ₹1,206 crore (₹501 crore via BSE SME + ₹705 crore via NSE Emerge), Maharashtra led in total capital raised with ₹1,843 crore. 

What explains Gujarat’s dominance in listing count? 

Gujarat’s lead in listings reflects both entrepreneurial depth and awareness of capital markets.

One key factor is the maturation of its SME and industrial ecosystem. The state has long been a manufacturing and export hub, with a strong base across chemicals, pharmaceuticals, engineering, textiles, and more. That gives local firms both operational scale and familiarity with capital markets. 

Local merchant bankers and advisory networks have also played a key role in guiding SMEs through the IPO process.

• However, the growing enthusiasm for SME listings brings both opportunities and caution. Analysts note that while IPO activity reflects confidence and maturity among small businesses, sustainability beyond listing remains the real test. Many issues have seen significant post-listing volatility, with performance hinging on promoter integrity, governance standards, and sector resilience.

• For investors, rigorous due diligence remains non-negotiable; assessing business models, track record, balance sheet health, sector cyclicality, and promoter credentials. Meanwhile, regulators too must keep refining norms (e.g. disclosure standards, minimum performance thresholds) to ensure that the SME IPO boom builds trust and resilience, not speculative froth.

Eyewear unicorn Lenskart founded by Peyush Bansal,  is back in the headlines this time, for drawing two prominent investors ahead of its IPO. Billionaire Radha Kishan Damani, founder of DMart, and SBI Mutual Funds are reportedly set to invest ₹100 crore each through a secondary share purchase, valuing the company at nearly $5–6 billion.

• The deal comes as Lenskart gears up for its SEBI-approved IPO, which includes a ₹2,150 crore fresh issue and an offer-for-sale by existing investors like SoftBank and Kedaara Capital.

• Over the years, Lenskart has built a formidable omnichannel presence with 2,000+ stores across India and an expanding global footprint in the Middle East and Southeast Asia. After turning profitable in FY25 with revenues crossing ₹6,600 crore, the company is showing what few startups have managed: consistent scale with improving margins.

Financial Performance (FY25 vs FY24)

• In FY25, Madhur Iron & Steel (India) Limited demonstrated strong growth and improved profitability.

Strategic Developments

Outlook

The company’s liquidity strengthened significantly, with Cash & Cash Equivalents growing to ₹13.15 Cr from ₹3.44 Cr. However, Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) requires a detailed calculation from the notes for a precise YoY comparison.

Strategic Developments

• Capital & Ownership Restructuring: The company significantly bolstered its equity base, increasing its Subscribed Capital by 38.7% through a fresh issuance of shares. This was complemented by a massive infusion into Reserves & Surplus, which grew from ₹8.98 Cr to ₹29.01 Cr, enhancing the company's net worth and financial stability.

Financial Performance (FY25 vs FY24): Bolzen & Mutter Limited delivered a robust performance in FY25 with total income rising 117.2% YoY to ₹79 Cr, up from ₹36 Cr in FY24. The sharp revenue growth was driven by higher operational income from its core business, which grew 115.0% YoY to ₹78 Cr.

Total expenses surged 123.2% YoY to ₹74 Cr, primarily led by a steep increase in material consumption (+150.1% YoY), employee costs (+173.1% YoY), and other expenses (+39.4% YoY).

Despite the cost escalation, Profit Before Tax (PBT) grew 54.3% YoY to ₹498.2 Cr, reflecting strong operating leverage and scale benefits.After accounting for taxes and deferred tax adjustments, Profit After Tax (PAT) rose 63.1% YoY to ₹3.7 Cr, compared to ₹2.2 Cr in FY24. Earnings per share (EPS) increased to ₹14.9 from ₹9.1, a healthy 63.1% YoY growth, reflecting solid bottom-line expansion.

Operational Metrics (FY25 vs FY24): Total assets nearly doubled (+133.2% YoY) to ₹36 in FY25 from ₹15 Cr in FY24, driven by higher plant & equipment and receivables, suggesting expansion in capacity and scale.
The loan book (long-term + short-term borrowings) expanded sharply by 181.5% YoY to ₹19 Cr, indicating aggressive leveraging to fund business growth.

Trade payables also rose 88.3% YoY to ₹5 Cr, suggesting higher procurement activity and scaling up of operations. However, this has also elevated working capital intensity.

The company’s net profit margin declined slightly to 4.6% in FY25 from 6.1% in FY24, reflecting strong revenue growth offset by higher input costs and interest burden

Strategic Developments: FY25 marked a transformative year for Bolzen & Mutter, with rapid revenue expansion supported by scaling in manufacturing and operations. However, the aggressive rise in borrowings (+135%) indicates dependence on external leverage, which could pressure margins and liquidity if not managed prudently.

While profitability improved materially, the significant jump in total liabilities suggests higher financial risk. The absence of visible credit stress (no NPAs reported) is positive, but the company must ensure prudent capital allocation and tighter working capital management.

Going forward, Bolzen & Mutter’s focus should be on: Strengthening balance sheet health by optimizing debt levels, Improving cost efficiency to sustain margins, and Enhancing operational cash flow to fund future expansion internally.
