Muthoot Finance stock gains on merger approval and steady June sales
Published on 09/01/2026 at 16:33 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWSMuthoot Finance stock (INE414G01012) traded near INR 2,945 on September 1, 2026, after reports said the board approved a merger scheme for wholly owned subsidiary Muthoot Money. The stock also appeared in market coverage after gold-linked lending sentiment stayed active around the session.
Merger plan in the spotlight
According to Business Standard, the board approved a scheme of amalgamation of Muthoot Money with Muthoot Finance on September 1, 2026. That makes the gold-loan franchise structurally cleaner, because one wholly owned subsidiary is being folded into the parent.
A separate market report said the share price slipped 1.48 percent to INR 2,945 on the BSE on September 1, 2026, which gives the stock a clear reaction point for the session.
June sales still growing
Moneycontrol reported that Muthoot Finance consolidated June 2026 net sales reached INR 8,671.60 crore, up 34.44 percent year on year. The same source also said promoter holding was 73.35 percent in the June 2026 quarter, and that gives investors a stable ownership backdrop.
The latest portal data also showed June 2026 EPS of 63.53, compared with 50.97 in June 2025. That is a rise of 24.7 percent, a useful comparison for a lender whose earnings track gold-loan momentum closely.

Key company information and the latest investor material for Muthoot Finance.
Gold lending still drives
Muthoot Finance remains centered on gold loans, and a recent industry note described it as India largest specialist gold-loan lender. That business mix matters now because the companys reported June 2026 EPS of 63.53 and net sales of INR 8,671.60 crore both point to a business that is still scaling.
The broader gold-loan market has also been drawing attention in recent coverage, with one report saying a brokerage kept a Neutral view while seeing 21 percent CAGR in gold loans for Muthoot Finance between FY26 and FY28. For investors, the next question is whether that growth rate can persist after the merger is completed.
Price level to watch
As of September 1, 2026, the share price was around INR 2,945 on the BSE, after an intraday report said the stock slipped 1.48 percent. That keeps the market level close to the latest news flow, with the merger decision and the June 2026 earnings base doing most of the work.
The stock remains a gold-loan story first, and a corporate-structure story second.
