- Bajaj Finance delivered INR 63.67 billion in consolidated profit for the second quarter of fiscal 2027 on October 19, 2026.
- Assets under management increased 26 percent to INR 584.62 billion by September 30, 2026.

Bajaj Finance reported consolidated net profit of INR 63.67 billion for the second quarter of fiscal 2027 on October 19, 2026, up 29 percent year on year, according to Business Standard. The result gives Bajaj Finance stock a stronger earnings backdrop, while the lender's proposed capital raising adds a separate funding question.
Profit growth meets funding risk
Financial Express reported that assets under management rose 26 percent to INR 584.62 billion as of September 30, 2026, from INR 462.26 billion a year earlier. Net interest income increased 24 percent to INR 133.35 billion, while net total income rose 23 percent to INR 159.74 billion in the quarter.
The credit picture was mixed but measurable. Gross non-performing assets declined to 1.06 percent from 1.24 percent a year earlier, while loan losses and provisions increased 4 percent to INR 21.66 billion because the quarter included an INR 3.37 billion management and macroeconomic provision.
What does the raise mean for growth?
The board proposal covers an INR 117.00 billion qualified institutional placement and INR 58.00 billion of convertible warrants, for a combined INR 175.00 billion, subject to shareholder and other approvals. The company also expects 60 million to 62 million new loans and 18 million to 20 million new customers in fiscal 2027, according to Business Standard. That combination puts balance-sheet capacity alongside loan growth as the central investor question.
Three results milestones
The NSE calendar records three dated milestones: July 30, 2026, for first-quarter results; October 1, 2026, for the fund-raising proposal; and October 19, 2026, for the second-quarter and half-year results, as shown on the NSE company page.
