Sharp Fall Due to Market Pressure and Q4 Earnings Concerns
Angel One Ltd faced heavy selling pressure early in the session due to broader weakness in financial and brokerage sector stocks. Investors also seemed worried ahead of the Q4 earnings season, leading to a fall of ₹91.60 or 3.89%.
Stock Falls Further After Disappointing Q4 Results
The selling intensified after the company reported weak earnings for the March quarter (Q4FY25). The stock dropped by 6.4% during intraday trading, hitting a low of ₹2,201 on the NSE. Angel One’s Profit After Tax (PAT) fell 49% year-on-year, disappointing investors and analysts alike.
Revenue and Profit Show Decline
Angel One reported a 16% drop in total income compared to the previous quarter — from ₹1,263.8 crore in Q3FY25 to ₹1,057.8 crore in Q4FY25.
Earnings Before Depreciation, Amortization, and Tax (EBDAT) also dropped significantly to ₹264.3 crore, down 36% from ₹414.1 crore in the December quarter.
Client Base Continues to Grow
On a positive note, Angel One saw strong growth in its client metrics:
- Total Client Base: Up 39.5% YoY, reaching 3.1 crore clients
- Share in Demat Accounts: Increased by 143 basis points to 16.1%
- NSE Active Clients: Rose 24% YoY to 76 lakh
- NSE Market Share in Active Clients: Gained 41 basis points to reach 15.4%, keeping Angel One in third place
However, gross client acquisition fell by 43.9% YoY to 16 lakh, indicating a slowdown in new user additions.
Dividend Announcement
Despite the earnings drop, Angel One’s Board has declared a final dividend of ₹26 per share. This shows the company’s ongoing commitment to rewarding its shareholders.
Future Outlook Remains Positive
Looking ahead, the company remains hopeful about its growth potential. It believes that recent regulatory changes will help create a better, more transparent ecosystem for the financial services industry. Angel One stated that the progress made during FY25 gives it strong confidence about tapping into future opportunities.
