SBI Cards and Payment Services Ltd has announced its Q2 FY2025 financial results, showcasing a solid revenue performance but a miss on profitability. The company posted ₹49.61 billion in revenue from operations, driven by higher card usage and fee income. However, net profit came in at ₹4.45 billion, significantly below the IBES consensus estimate of ₹5.79 billion.
The shortfall in profit is attributed to increased provisioning and operating expenses, which offset gains from revenue growth. Despite this, the company continues to maintain a strong market position in India’s credit card segment, with expanding customer base and digital adoption.
Key Highlights:
- Total revenue from operations: ₹49.61 billion in Q2 FY2025
- Net profit: ₹4.45 billion vs IBES estimate of ₹5.79 billion
