Jio Financial Services on Friday disclosed a 14% decline in consolidated net profit to Rs 272 crore for the March quarter of 2025-26, attributed to increased expenditures. This comes despite its total income almost doubling to Rs 1,020 crore, compared to Rs 518 crore in the same period of the previous financial year.
The company noted that geopolitical volatility affected its treasury income, influencing its financial outcome for the quarter. Across the 2025-26 financial year, JFS reported a slight decrease in net profit to Rs 1,561 crore from Rs 1,613 crore in FY25.
In a significant development, JFS announced the appointment of Annapoorna Venkataramanan as Group CFO and declared a dividend. Furthermore, Jio Payments Bank saw robust growth, with a significant increase in its CASA customer base and income surge.
