Razorpay

The Razorpay IPO is one of the most highly anticipated fintech public offerings in India. Razorpay Software Private Limited, a prominent digital payments and financial services platform, has confidentially filed its Draft Red Herring Prospectus (DRHP) with SEBI. The company is widely expected to make its stock market debut by the end of 2026, with plans to list on both the BSE and NSE mainboards.

Market reports suggest that the company is targeting an IPO issue size of approximately Rs. 5,000–Rs. 6,000 crore (around $500–600 million). Razorpay is expected to target a valuation of around $5–6 billion. The offering is anticipated to be structured as a 50:50 mix of fresh issues to raise new capital and an Offer for Sale (OFS), allowing existing investors a partial exit.

The capital raised from the fresh issue will primarily be used to expand Razorpay’s product portfolio, upgrade its AI-powered technology infrastructure, and scale newer business verticals like its neobanking platform (RazorpayX). Financially, the company demonstrated strong momentum with an estimated operating revenue of around Rs. 3,783 crore (reflecting nearly 65% year-on-year growth), though it reported a net loss due to one-time ESOP restructuring costs.

It features a fresh issue of shares aiming to raise up to Rs. 750 crore alongside an Offer for Sale (OFS) of up to 4.007 crore equity shares, each carrying a face value of Rs. 5. Specific timelines, the price band, and lot sizes will be finalized and announced following regulatory review.

Fibe operates as a technology-driven consumer financing platform utilizing AI, machine learning, and data science to provide credit solutions for personal loans, education, healthcare, and travel. As of March 31, 2026, the company manages assets under management (AUM) totaling Rs. 8,602.74 crore and maintains a network of over 10,387 merchant touchpoints across India. The net proceeds generated from the fresh issue of the IPO are slated to be invested in its material subsidiary, ESPL, to strengthen its capital base for onward lending requirements, as well as for general corporate purposes.

The company’s financial metrics reflect substantial growth over the past three fiscal years. For FY26, revenue from operations climbed to Rs. 1,584.54 crore, up from Rs. 1,208.94 crore in FY25 and Rs. 771.86 crore in FY24. Profit After Tax (PAT) experienced a significant surge, reaching Rs. 257.46 crore in FY26 compared to Rs. 113.73 crore in the previous year. Additionally, EBITDA grew to Rs. 647.77 crore in FY26, indicating strong operational efficiency ahead of its public listing.
